XxSugarxX2010 chapter 25 . 9/25/2012 As my momma says "If a story can bring you to tears, you know you found a great story" Those words could not have been any more true. This was a great story. Sugar |
jellicalgal123 chapter 25 . 6/6/2012 OMG beautiful story some of the chapters even had me in tears especially the last done amazing story :) |
stuart09.sgmail.com chapter 25 . 4/7/2012 I've followed this story for like a week or two, haven't reviewed yet though, but I'd really like to say this! This ending was simply beautiful and original! I never expected you to skip ahead to the end of her life; it was pretty sad but really happy at the same time! I also liked how you explained the Heavyside Layer, which always confused me. Like, did a cat have to wait to be sent to die or what? But, you have a wonderful theory on how death works for the Jellicles and its very realistic! Your writing style is beautiful and a pleasure to read, any fic you write in the future is well looked forward to. :) |
eld mcm chapter 25 . 4/7/2012 this ending made me cry like titanic's... *sniff* |
Cocobutterrox chapter 25 . 4/6/2012 OMEC OMEC...is it really the last chapter? Oh...now I'm depressed. But the good thing is...there's still one chapter left! YAY! Oh, I really hope you start a new story soon! Your writing is very enjoyable for us readers :) I'm too scared to read on. I don't know why. I just don't want it to end :( But all good things come to an end at some point, right? Good thing I have this in my favorites, so I can read it over and over and over and over- Okay, sorry. I'm actually going to start READING now. Haha Quaxo and Victoria have kittens...teehee. Aw...no! Old Victoria? It's hard for me to imagine it. Awwww I think it's so sweet how Plato and Etcetera's granddaughter is in love with Quaxo and Vicky's grandson! NO! PLATO DIED! NO! Well, at least he died peacefully. Wow, this chapter is really realistic. Everything just...makes sense. In other words, I LOVE IT! Awwwwwwwwww and Quaxo's dead...NO! That's so sad! And now Vicky's dying too. Awwwwwwwwwwwwwww I like how you had some cats be reborn. It just adds to the realisticness. OMEC OMEC I think I'm about to cry...I don't know if I can read on... Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww she's in the Heaviside Layer, isn't she? That's so sweet :) IT'S HER MOTHER! VICK'S MOTHER! YES! YEESSSSS! Obviously this chapter is making me very emotional haha. Best. Ending. Ever. The perfect mixture of happy and sad. That's all I can say about it. As for the entire chapter in general, it made me cry. One of the best stories I have ever read. I assure you that whatever your next story is, I'll be the first to review haha! Until next time! |
Horselover1289 chapter 24 . 4/5/2012 No chance for a sequel, I suppose? I was actually rather fond of Alonzo. I can't imagine him simply believing everything that someone says and being easy to trust. Look how he treated Grizabella! But around friends and those he trusts he's a good tom, for the most part. I personally think you nailed him. Macavity is well written and perfectly devious and, even though I really don't care much for Plato as long as Misto and Victoria get together in the end, I liked that he's not evil incarnate. I'm not overly fond of him, however it's still a refreshing change. Good job, and I'll be watching you to see what else you write, Mistoria or no. |
Cocobutterrox chapter 24 . 4/4/2012 Yes! I was so afraid Quaxo was going to die! Like, really. Good thing he's alive, though! Vicky would have been a mess without him! My goodness, what is wrong with Alonzo? And now Bombalurina and Cassandra, too? Not a good sign... Yeah, go Plato! You tell 'em! The part where Asparagus went to touch Victoria makes me think about the time when Victoria touched Grizabella. And then, after that, more and more cats come to touch her. Wow. I'm so happy that Demeter decided to trust Quaxo. I imagine it would have been hard for her to do so, seeing that he is Macavity's son. The last five paragraphs were so sweet I felt tears welling up in my eyes. Not even joking :) I think one of the best developed Jellicles in your story is Alonzo. I wonder if he feels guilty for accusing Misto of working with Macavity. He better apologize! And I understand, because there are just so many Jellicles, aren't there? But you did a wonderful job characterizing everyone. Another great chapter :) I can't believe there is only one left! Update soon! |
eld mcm chapter 23 . 4/2/2012 Woah! I was right! YAAAAAAY! Let's hope Quaxo's OK :( |
Cocobutterrox chapter 23 . 4/2/2012 OMEC only two more chapters? :( I was right! It was Macavity! Grrrr Alonzo makes me SO mad. Oh, that CANNOT be good. Macavity better not hurt Victoria! I absolutely cannot BELIEVE the way Alonzo is acting right now! He has to do something pretty darn nice to make up for his behavior! Would it be weird to say that I love the way Macavity talks? Like, the way you write his sentences...it's so...I don't know...sophisticated. If he sees his agents as property, then they might as well be slaves. Macavity is so MEAN! Understatement of the century, huh? I feel bad for Quaxo. If only he knew he would fall for the daughter of the mother he was sent out to kill. No! What did Macavity do to Quaxo? Did he kill him? Or is Quaxo just weak from the fight? Did Macavity just make himself disappear? Agh so many questions! I'm so glad your next chapter will be up soon! Grr I'm about to explode from all my hatred towards Macavity and Alonzo and the rest of the Jellicles for not helping Quaxo out. And they have yet to get Old Deuteronomy! Absolutely loved this chapter. It's one of my favorite chapters so far. The action was so intense and everything was just...wow. Can't wait for the next chapter :) |
eld mcm chapter 22 . 3/16/2012 Well, for what i understood Old Deuteronomy was again Macavity transformed and at the end Quaxo was again giving energy to the cats as he did with Plato. |
Cocobutterrox chapter 22 . 3/16/2012 I automatically am in love with your cat. Quaxo and Vicky in the beginning were so sweet and sad :( I also liked how you added the fact that Vicky decided to skip training when she was younger. It makes sense and adds to her character :) Whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa. QUAXO HOW DARE YOU! WAIT! I think...was the Old Deuteronomy not really Old Deuteronomy? Maybe Quaxo was trying to keep them from saving this so-called "Old Deuteronomy"? You said, "And yet, something about his call seemed odd as I drew closer." Interesting... Well, you've definately got me wondering! It's one of the things I absolutely love about this story. I can't wait for the next chapter! |
eld mcm chapter 21 . 3/12/2012 Yeah, i really think that a fight with Macavity will let him being welcomed again by the tribe, I mean he should face his fears too...meanwhile I can only hope that this story won't end up like Romeo and Juliet... |
Cocobutterrox chapter 21 . 3/9/2012 It was so sad in the beginning when she was deciding which of her prized possessions she should take with her :( Plus, I liked how you made Admetus the "technology expert" of the tribe. It adds character to him :) Once again, wonderful figurative language! Especially with metaphors and similes :) I've never put so many smiley faces in one review before haha :) Hehe who doesn't love a good explosion every now and then? Did it come from Macavity? The only thing I was confused about is the last thing Victoria said to Quaxo. I was wondering why she said that. I mean, I know WHY she said it, but, I mean, what made her say it right then and there? Did the explosion have something to do with it? I'm sure you made it clear, and I probably just missed something haha. Or maybe the answer to my question will be revealed in the next chapter? Now I'm all excited and anxious to see what happens! Loved this chapter and all the emotions in it. Keep up the great work! Update soon. |
Cocobutterrox chapter 20 . 3/1/2012 Ok, so, I was reading this sentence: "Maybe I should just forget the deadline. Perhaps I shouldn't even say goodbye. I didn't want to remember those I love crying or making empty promises." And then I was like, "Oh, yay, Victoria's not going to leave the Jellicles!" And then I read the next sentence: "Maybe I should just leave with Quaxo as soon as possible." And I was like, "No, Victoria, NO! BAD VICTORIA!" And then she SMILED TO HERSELF? WHAT IS WRONG WITH HER? Gah, you're such a good writer! You're making me feel all these emotions, and it makes me want to read your story even more. And I loved the painting metaphor/simile! The only thing I was confused about was this: "Luckily, every moment that the two could spare, the three of us would huddle in darkened corners with our heads bent in secret discussions." This might sound dumb...but who are the three cats? Is that Victoria, Admetus, and Plato? Or Victoria, Quaxo, and Plato? Sorry, it's probably just me who is confused. I'm sure you explained it perfectly but I'm not the brightest person so I was just a bit confused on that. Other than that, there were just a few spelling errors (very small things, like instead of "an" you typed "and" and sometimes some words were left out.) Heehee Plato and Etcetera are so cute together :) I really can't wait for the next chapter! Update soon. |
Cocobutterrox chapter 19 . 2/27/2012 Wow! You have so much figurative language in this chapter! I mean, you always do, but this chapter had some pretty interesting ones. You added lots of metaphors and similes :) I'm glad Asparagus stood up for Victoria. He is so right about everything! I can't wait for the next chapter! Your writing is so smooth and professional-sounding. You do a great job describing emotions! |
