I really enjoy this story, would it be continued?

Still wanted to thank you for this series. You did a remarkable amount of worldbuilding for it it. Thank you!

It's too bad that the sequel ended up being abandoned, but even so... I'm happy to that we got to see tenten and shino get married. Your stories were really good. I understand having things to do and losing interest in a Fandom, either way thank you for creating such wonderful stories.

I'm glad I checked to see if I had reviewed this chapter. It seems that, in my haste, I quite forgot to.

But, since I loved The Middle Ground to bits and pieces (I still re-read it every once in a while), I was very willing to explore this new version of them together. Shino/Tenten is such a rare pairing and you are a very gifted writer. So I'm glad you revisited them once more. This and other stories you have written rank among my favorites.

Perhaps a lot of people have lost interest in Naruto (I have to say that the quality of the manga dropped for me), but I think the worlds you imagine are beyond reproach. I truly admire your style and I always look forward to updates from you! So please take care and I hope you keep updating this story!

Keep up the good work! And may I say that your style always makes me laugh? Because, somehow, the humor in your words beats even the gravest of situations. Which is admirable and quite impressive.

Shino and Tenten are so kawaii together.

But alas, this story has been abandoned! It was going really good though :3

Wish there was more...

I'm pretty certain that those two who were talking in the end were Naruto and Kiba XD

My favourite parts of this were the Kiba and Naruto moments XD I also really appreciated the Kurenai moment (and Shino finally getting to quench his longing for his wife XD)

Its such fun to say 'his wife'. He must feel giddy XD

I really enjoyed this entire chapter!

"I sincerly hope so" XD Shino is the best yes XD

I am always so happy to read the endings of your chapters. This is great!

~Poodie

PLEASE continue this. TTTT

...also...I wonder about your thoughts on Tenten and Shino given what the end of the series showed them to be like as adults. :)

:)
I love this.
I look forward to it's continuation.

I am not going to try to pressure you into writing more when you feel like you don't have it in you. I am just REALLY glad you wrote what you did and I found your stories- even these few chapters made me so happy it's kind of ridiculous, honestly! Also, I love the little bits at the ends, it feels sort of like those bonus/easter egg things after the credits on a lot of movies, but also makes the characters seem more reallike they keep going even when the "camera" isn't on them, if that makes any sense. :D

I know you haven't updated this in 2 years, but I read this in 2011 and was rereading "The Middle Ground" and "The Contract" and was pleasantly surprised to find more than I remembered.

I know you are probably done with this story, but on the off chance you are not I'd be very excited to see what comes next!

Fantastic start to a sequel. I loved the first story for how you interpreted the personalities of both Shino and Tenten, as well as for the level of intrigue (without falling in to melodrama). I realize this story hasn't been updated in quite a while, and if this is all there will be it was a lovely ride. Just wanted to say there are still readers who would love to see more, if you were ever so inclined.

What an amazing story! I read the prequel (pardon me im about to sound sappy) but simply fell for it. The intricacies of the aburame clan you developed and making me root for this unlikely couple. I also enjoy that you took your time. I'm guilty of enjoying fluff and action but most authors take this as suffocating you with a grand amount of "drama" making it resemble a spanish tele novela and taking away what I enjoyed about the plot/characters.
Thus I find that your story has that essence that pulls me in.
Of course I look forward to more, yes, FLUF (It's the damned romantic in me.) Yet will also anticipate your excellent action scenes.

I am a huge fan of your fic "The Middle Ground" - lost count of how many times I've re-read it. I'm so glad there's a sequel. I look forward to reading more about their relationship. It doesn't matter when, just write more as soon as yuu can :)

So, errrr... Mid-April 2014 was a while ago...

PS. The story rocks. I love your characterisation of these two, it's fab. So chop chop and come on back. Srsly.
