Guest chapter 1 . 1/1/2017 Oh good God YES |
BiblioMatsuri chapter 1 . 12/24/2012 You don't mess with Martha. *cracks up* |
im-aggressive chapter 1 . 11/20/2012 This was epic! Seriously! But I do have one thing to point out: By the time Crow was in Black Bird Delivery Service, Satellite and City were connected, therefore Satellite was rebuilt and prosperous. It's not just some desolate island like it was made out to be here. But other than that, it was amazing! Hah, Martha really knows how to discipline, huh?:) The ending was perfect. Nice work;) |
Duelist of Pearl chapter 1 . 8/2/2012 Oh ho ho ho! Martha showed you, Chip! It really is amazing how she got Crow, Jack, and Yuusei to get over there quickly. More so by happening to know people IN prison to take care of Chip! Ha! One quick edit: some of your words are clumped together, mainly ones that are in italics. Please keep writing! |
Robyn S. Mockingbird chapter 1 . 6/29/2011 I loved it. Honestly, I just loved Martha's character and you portrayed her really well here. Also, it was INSANELY FUNNY! Like, with how pretty much all the inmates are mad at him because he threatened this one woman and she has all these connections. Three awesome duelists, Sector Security, and prison inmates! The fact that he was beaten by a little kid helped too. :) |
emeralddarkness chapter 1 . 6/8/2011 No idea what that other guy is talking about; this is a BEAUTIFUL fic and I love it. I can also so, so see it happening, because Martha is just that bamf. |
Tee-shirt chapter 1 . 6/7/2011 Dear Higuchimon/Cynthia Harrell, I found your stories after you favorited my fic. I read several of your Yu-Gi-Oh, GX and Digimon stories, but I'm not going to read anymore, because I find your voice and style to be distracting. I really want to like your stories, because they contain funness and emotional angst, but it is hard for me to get into them when you overuse the passive voice and do a lot more telling than I feel is necessary. Instead of letting the reader interpret what the characters feel, you flat out state what they are thinking and feeling, which destroys the excitement and mystery for me. This makes important scenes, such as Ryou and Fujiwara in "Hot Springs" and the interaction between Yami and Seto Kaiba in "Bedside Visit" feel flat and undynamic. It makes me sad, because your scenes have so much potential, but then I'm unable to get into them because I'm flat-out told what they feel. The other things that I feel distract are your word choice and detail. Sometimes I feel your language is repetitive and other times I feel as if your scenes could use more detail to make them believable. There are moments where I feel I'm mostly being told what the characters think or it's descending into dialogue. Details and descriptions would make some parts feel not so what's the word wooden and not so scripted. I hope my review does not get you down. You have fun ideas and do angsty emo romanceness well. You also write Good Omens and Kingdom Hearts well. Have you ever thought about writing Harry Potter fanfic? The way you write though's just not for me. |
Brother Mirtillo chapter 1 . 5/30/2011 Very nice! Now you’ve got me guessing how Martha tipped Crow off - my favorite: she would never be unexpectedly “all out” of food - at least not now that Satellite’s rebuilt and whatnot. The plot was simple yet entertaining. What really got me were the voices. You gave Takuya bravery and eagerness that more than borders on naivete - all of which matches his character, especially given his age. (And I’ve also wondered what kinds of decks these kids would have. Ojamas, huh? There's a thought...) I always knew Martha didn’t tolerate back-sassing, but I hadn’t imagined her charisma being able to remain so unmovable before an armed hostage-taker. I guess if that’s what it takes to keep a lid on the chances of her kids’ safety, she’d muster charisma to spare. I suppose I should feel sorry for Chip - him misstepping so badly, even after he was all savvy at the start when all he had to outmaneuver were redshirt cops. But I don’t. He really had no idea who he was messing with. Anyone who’s seen Martha or Crow on the job for ten minutes knows that this guy would never get away with it. That said, I hadn’t anticipated that last scene, though I should have. That poor bastard... |
WavesOfGrain94 chapter 1 . 5/26/2011 I loved this story! Martha is truly an amazing woman. I almost feel sorry for poor Chip! XD Excellent job, though, I loved how you portrayed Chip's opinions of Martha and the children. I thought it was all perfect! Martha would stand up to an armed robber with a ladel; i can totally see that! |
