I-I'm not cr-crying, your cr-cr-crying! Fine I am crying! *sobs* Poor Luigi, I know he's in a better place, the rainbow road where Satoru Itawa is after his death in 2015.

Nice story, now I need tissues.

oooooh man. this was so sad but so good at the same time! I teared up reading it!

Depressing! Just how I like it in... *checks time* 10 in the evening! :D

Hey so I don't know if you write on here anymore, or even check reviews, but I want you to know I've had this story on my mind since around 2011. That year I first rented super paper mario from Family Video and played a little, then pretty much immediately looked for fics, as I already felt Luigi was my favorite character. I found this one, read mostly the last third of it because I hadn't yet finished the game and did not understand the characters and ending. Fast forward to 2019, I finally buy Super Paper Mario and finish the game entirely. The entire time I'm playing, I'm looking forward to coming back and reading Paper Tears in its entirety.

I was not disappointed. At all. What an absolutely wonderful, touching, heartbreaking story. It fits with the dark tone of SPM and the generally tragic nature of Luigi. Your dialogue for Mario, who is almost always silent, is masterful. This story broke my heart and I admittedly shed a few tears of my own. Well worth the 8 year wait I gave myself. Thank you for writing this.

This nearly made me cry...

This is so sad! The emotions are beautifully conveyed.

Nearly made me cry... nearly! Still, a beautiful story- capturing grief wonderfully. Honestly, this is a realistic and sad twist on the relationship the brothers have. Normally I would avoid such sad story but this was too compelling! The awkwardness doesn't to be existent in this tale. Still mentally crying after reading, but that's to be expected

This was amazing! I love it! You captured Mario's angst so well!

This legitimently made me cry. A fanfic hasn't done that before. Great job on this.

(*INSERT LENNY FACE*LOOOOLLLL)

Wow. This was beautiful. I cried, it was so beautifuly sad. Fantastic work, I really enjoyed it.

SO DARN SAD...and I'm listening to Let Her Go just to add insult to injury. But I am oddly attracted to sad/beautiful stories like this one, especially with Luigi in it, and Paper Tears is now my favourite Mario fanfic of all time. Awesome job!

'Then his world died'? Bit unceremonial for such a beautifully angsty story. Still, that doesn't stop me from reading this over and over just for that rare but wonderful feeling of a tangle of emotional knots bunching up inside, terrible yet amazing at the same time...
Sorry, did I ramble? To sum up, you did a great job. I just wish you would write more Mario fanfics, that's all.

By the middle of reading this I was crying uncontrollably and I couldn't stop.

How on Earth have you managed to make Mario of all things so sad?

I can't. I just... can't. The feels...

I have no choice now. I shall go and drown my sorrow... in tea... and a chocolate bar. I hope you're happy!
