Your backstory for Revy is quite well done, explaining some things and using the tiniest tidbits that can be seen for a frame in the anime. I like your style. Keep writing.

What a story. Nice freakin job.

Bravo sir, well done! I don't know how we'll this would actually fit into the BL universe, bu dang it if this wasn't at least a cold "what if" story. I think my favorite part was actually the little cameo from Eda (my favorite character from a technical aspect), that just had me rolling!

That and Tony Ngo's absent aunt winning the lottery, that too.

But yeah, aside from the occasional minor spelling goof and stuff like that this story was good. ...And also criminally (geddit?) under reviewed.

beautiful story. very moving. Nailed the details. Congrats. Got Revy down pat, and kept it all real. Perfect ending. The details, just right. And a nice touch, with the quote from Rock. Gorgeous.

Damn good story. Really good. Second time I've read through it.

boom boom girl never heard it use this way. correct me if i am wrong but the way i was taught boom boom is use by teenager and aoi ga is use by adult but still very funny

Wow. This is so utterly bleak, from beginning to end. Everyone dies. Well, almost.

Even if it can be considered a miracle she survived all that, she still went through hell. Meeting droves of nasty characters that kill without consideration and push a girl into that world with no regrets. I think Mr. Gaan is scariest, what with his bland inconspicuousness. That guy no one suspects. Very creepy.

And Small Talk gets a pretty memorable death. Went out in a blaze of glory, literally. The whole gang of teenagers is incredibly sad.

Great story. And very, very bleak.

i loved you fic it talks about Revys past and i like it!

Hi friend. I'm getting around to reviewing after a long delay. I suck at life- what else can I say?

I love the slang and lingo that you use. That makes it really work for me, even though I depend wholly on context to make sense of it. I never was one to look up stuff mid-sentence. As a result, I'm not sure if I got all of it, but there you go.

The history that you have fabricated for Revy is compelling, to say the least. She suffers far too much to make it a happy story, but it stands to reason that "beyond fucked" means everything that one can imagine and worse. Still, it's almost hard to read. No one ought suffer so much.

Finally found time to finish this. Wow. That's all I can really say here. Outstanding. I know I was yapping on the forums about how I preferred the 'mystery' behind Revy's past, but yeah, I'm eating those words now. Awesome fic, really.

This story is frickin awesome!

OMFG that was a fucking amazing story. I could actually beleve that that was how Revy started. And I loved the cameo by Eda and the mentions of Dutch and Chang.

But, wow, that was good.

I salute you.

Good job with the fic, I enjoyed it alot. I can only hope that you write some more Black Lagoon stories as good ones are really in short supply here.

God. This fanfic just keeps getting better and better and better and better and better.

I loved the way you handled the "Don't say you're sorry" part, and the interaction between Revy and Mike is so cute. :D

"The double roar of gunshots bounced off the walls of the building. Bone and brain-matter exited from the back of both of Vuong and Mot's heads in a synchronized spray of gore."

Really powerful brutal imagery. Love it.

Could the knife lady be Shenhua by any chance? :P

I have one question: How old is Revy in the different chapters? Did you skip some years? I'm just a bit confused. :P
