Ayameloveschocolatecake chapter 1 . 12/30/2019
I ran across this story a few years back before I had my account and really loved it. Though I never finished it. It remains one of the best Kingdom Hearts fics I have ever read and has stuck with me for a few years now. Your story has really helped me a lot and has inspired one of my own and for that I thank you. Thank you for making your story so impactful that it’s stuck with me for years. Sincerely Ayame/Ayameloveschocolatecake

I swear, I have ready many fanfics before I began, but this fanfic here was the one that inspired me to write fanfictions. Rosekun, keep being awesome. It may have taken me forever to write this, but dangit, it was worth it.

What a nice way to start the morning. Welling up a little when I stuck 358's Dearly Beloved on. I think I can only say one thing.

Well done.

Hey, I liked the structure of your piece but the content isnt very fulfilling. Also I would like to inform you that if at the beginning of the book Roxas was in high school and this is roughly 5-6 years later he would've just graduated college and would be applying for medical school. You don't just go to medical school you have to attend college and after that you most likely will not make it into medical school when you first apply for it. That's why doctors are so aged. Also you completely deflated your piece by ending it with "the end" Roxas saying simply "I am" would've been the perfect ending and a lot smoother. But over all your piece was not too bad, keep improving and I hope to see more from you.

So here we are at last, our happy ending. It went about as I expected, couldn't very well be a story about an insane person finding love without being declared legally sane at the end now could it.

I am curious though, what of the baby? Will we get an epilogue of little ventus growing up with his parents, potentially a younger sibling? Spoiled by his aunt and grandparents? The possibilities are truely endless, one of the best things about such an open ending. Without tying up all the family ties practically anything can happen. From a happy marraige to a great tradegy, many routes remain open should you wish to follow them.
I'm curious if you are still thinking about reversing their roles, somehow I think an "insane" roxas would be far less calm, what with anger being such a clear part of his cannon personality. But I'm rambling. I blame exhaustion. It is a shame to see this end but that is the fate of all good things and I am glad it didn't end up shelved and incomplete for eternity.

See you around.

Happy Birthday however late it's came. Fortunately or unfortunately depending on how you look at it, I have no questions, no major thoughts to offer. Merely read and awaiting the next chapter.

My my here we are again, twice read and ready for review.

Instead of starting from the beginning I'm going to start from the bit I enjoyed the most, Xions arrival and interactions with her nephew. As I'm sure I mentioned in our PMs I'm happy to see that you share my sentiments about Xion being a spoiling aunt and her reaction to Ven crying was priceless. I half expected her to be completely comfortable with handling a baby's cries so having her react with a scream and no idea on what to do just made the moment much more endearing even with the, well I read it as a jokingly snarky comment to riku anyway.

There where bits I didn't quite get though so I will address them now:
- lightning, perhaps I'm overlooking the timeframe here but what exactly made lightning get so attached to Namine that they would share such a moment on her leaving.
- vanille, if I spelled it right anyway, the whole pregnancy thing seemed to come out of nowhere with no prior interactions which was a little confusing.
- namine herself, this is my biggest confusion and concern, as a girl who has been mute for 10 years she confronted her parents remarkably well. With limited contact with her parents what exactly gave her the confidence to explode and blackmail her father the way she did? Was it pent up aggression from the last 10 years? A mothers desire to protect her family? Simple and malicious need for vengance? Something else entirely?
I feel there was so much room to expand on this confrontation, perhaps I'm missing something and it will come in the next chapter.

We will meet again I'm sure it's a shame this story is nearing its end. Will you write an epilogue? and have you put some thought into that idea about writing a reverse, where roxas is the patient and seeing how that would effect things?

God...I thought I did depressing well, but that's a whole other level xD

Good job :)

Also...you totally ripped the chapter title from BioShock Infinite didn't you? ;)

I was very happy too see the improved formatting in the latter chapters, without seemingly random breaks in sentences it was all to easy to just lose hours in the story.

As for the story, I found it to be a very enjoyable, it was sweet at times while still addressed basic moral problems that would arrise in a relationship like the one this roxas and namine share. That being said I do feel that there was room to expand, perhaps on the fears roxas had, such as when he feared that he misread and raped namine.
There are questions that must be asked though:
1. In the very latest chapters just after namine gave birth, how much time actually passed between giving birth and failing the psychprofiling? It felt like a few days which doesn't seem like it would be medically wise to me.
2. Carrying over from question 1, is there any reason Sora and Xion didn't get to meet their nephew? This seemed like a big oversight on sora's part given the close bond he shared with his twin in the earlier chapters such as roxas sharing a bed when sick.
3. Now that we are getting more insight into namine's thoughts are you going to go into more detail about why she doesn't want to talk and why she's picked now to talk to others? I did find naming her son to be a great point to have her talk for the first time.

There will no doubt be more questions as the story hopefully gets updated but those will do for now.

Finally I would be very interest in reading a sonic where roxas is the "insane" one.

I hope this story won't get abound ones especially when you are so close to the end.
gorguts5 chapter 3 . 1/18/2015
This story would be a lot more satisfying with actually formatting.
2/3 chapters in and when I try to ignore the poor way the story is laid out I'm surprised to find it is actually very enjoyable. With an interesting premise, characters that actually seem to match their origionals and even, despite the lack of description anyway, well paced.
This is unfortunately the sad part, when you can write to a decent standard like this, I don't understand why you would hurt yourself with such basic issues that are not actually originating from the base story itself. Unfortunately the way it is formatted makes it difficult to read and breaks the flow of the story, several times a sentence or even a single word would suddenly jump to the next line completely interrupting the entire section.

As I'm only 3 chapters in I do hope this formatting changes.
