Please put up another chapter! Love it!

This is a short, but really effective chapter. It really gives us an insight to what Rua and Ruka's parents have missed about their children growing up, and that gave it a small angst-like feel to it. I also really like the beginning, referring to Ruka soaking up the sounds of the Duel Monster Spirits- it was a good technique because you had just mentioned the usage of water. Whether intentional or not, that was a good technique to use :)

However, my favorite line was this:

'Finally, the young duelist responded slowly and maturely, "I…I do love you guys, but I love my sister more."

This single line shows how much Rua cares for his Sister, and how mature he has become in just a few words. It was symbolic- how he wasn't rushing into anything immediately and how he was taking the time and beginning to thinking things through with more care.

I don't hate the parents, but I dislike their actions at the moment. They seem to be a little selfish, but coming into the light. I wouldn't be surprised if they handed their children over to Yusei, Aki and the others so that they could have time to sort out their lives so that the four of them could become a true family.

P.S: Ruka really does look pretty with her hair down :)

I like the choice for rua's ringtone :)

:) :)

holy shiznit! yeah :3 on to the next chappie!

finish this story !

Another touching story:) is the final chapter coming soon?

This is beautifully done. You capture everything so well, I could EASILY see this actually happening. I can't wait for the last chapter, I wonder if the other Signers will help Rua bring Ruka back...

This story is fantastic. I have to agree that if Ruka was away from Rua for even six months, something like this would happen(if Rua just suddendly wasn't with her anymore, i'm pretty sure she would feel so alone that she would go back to the spirit world). Poor Ruka, I hope Rua can fix this. I look forward to the next chapter.

A great chapter yet again. Sorry I couldn't review this right away, but better late than never hey?

Anyways, I loved the CrowXAki scene. I am a faithshipper, but I do love the odd firebirdshipping scenario, and it seemed all the more believable with Aki cursing herself for harming Ruka, even though it was not actually Aki's fault in any shape or form, but yeah. Great deciption of the characters in that scene :)

Also, I saw the piece of my review you put in the chapter, but you altered it. That was quite effective, because it gives us readers a strong essence to the feel of the characters, and allows us to see into their minds when they are experiencing certain emotions, such as pain or regret.

However, I would advise that you make certain sections a little longer and perhaps a little more speech could be added. Your great at description, but your works seem to lack alot of speech, which is key in any story that uses characters in this type of context.

That's all I have to say :) You did great yet again, can't wait for the next chapter :)

P.S: This story seems to be good to read whilst eating beans on toast. Don't know why.

Awsome! Can't wait for the next!

I love this story. It was extremely well-done and IC.

Just a few tips I would like to point out. First of all, I'm sure Ruka calls Aki, "Aki-san". Only Rua calls her "Aki-neechan," or Big Sister Aki. Second of all, it should be written "24/7" rather than "twenty-four seven." Third of all, don't space before and after the dash or hyphen. Keep the words together.

This was clear and precise writing, which I sometimes have trouble with, but it seems you're having no trouble. Good job.

This story was a good break from reading mediocre Faithshipping stories and other fandom fanfictions.

Wow...just wow.

Although a few of the scenes wers short, it really made sense and the way you had written them was clear and effective to the eye. You decipted their personalities perfectly.

And what **** her parents are! They try to send their kids away, singiling out one of them, and then fake it off, just because they are afraid! Even if you're afraid of your children, that's the thing - they are still CHILDREN, they need guidence in their lives, or they will go off the rails later on in life. Actually, that kind of sounded like Aki's past a little, where they feared Aki, but at least they regretted what they did.

And the end was really a grip-catching (MY WORD! YOU NO STEAL!) ending cliffhanger. It really is going to draw the reader in alot. Well done :)

Good story! JA NE till the next time!...Or next chapter. XD
