Re-read the whole thing when I saw the update! :}

YAY YOU’RE BACK! Congratulations on graduating! This chapter was amazing as always. Keep up the great work!

PLEASE UPDATE I MISS THIS STORY

I love it! I think you've got them all down pretty well.

THE BEST FANFIC WRITER IN THE UNIVERSE. In love with this chapter and fic. Keep up the great work!

ARE YOU TELLING ME... THAT THE KISS DIDNT HAPPEN?!
... Slightly upset. But that is ok. I love Maria’s development. I love the interactions she has with Yusei and the gang. I love how you show character’s feelings through the eyes of other characters. I really like the fact that you tend to shy away from Yūsei as a POV. It adds a lot of the suspense. I always look forward to your updates. They are always worth the wait. Thank you for not disappearing on us!

AHHH. What an update! Great chapter, I finally can die happy seeing that they kissed. I'm rooting for Maria, but damn there's so many complications. I feel once Aki learns what happened (if) then she may be hurt, but I think she would see how Maria tried to back-off and be like 'wow what a true friend sho deserves the world' ...or something. Idk. Also because of the whole kiss, I feel like their interactions might be taking two steps back OR they may just flub around each other like awkward ducklings till people put two and two together. I hope they don't take two steps back, they are good friends it seems, and if Maria pushes him away I can see things getting strained. Anyhow, lovey chapter from start to finish! I enjoyed how Maria cooked and everyone just kinda gathered together in a lighthearted moment. Thank you again for the chapter, and good luck with the next!

I was just reading this story yesterday because I missed it! Imagine my surprise when I see an update this morning :) You made my day, especially with this awesome chapter.
Poor Maria, she can't catch a break. Now she's going to deal with having a crush on the same guy as her (possibly) best friend. Love this!
Upload soon :)

Duuudeeee, loved this chapter! There's so much going on, and it was all written so well! From Yusei and Maria visiting Nayla to the bomb threat to the whole whatever-just-happened to Maria fiasco was fun to read. I loved the support they gave Maria at the end, it was really touching. Thanks for this chapter, I always enjoy every update

haha, that last bit was hilarious. "Maria...why is there a velociraptor in the dining room?" Thanks for the chapter!

I'm very happy for the update!
Thank you very much for not forgetting the story! I missed Maria very much, I'm really happy to continue reading new chapters.
I enjoyed reading about the portals, the hieroglyphics. Is there a transition of Egyptian to Mayan ? My God, this is going to be good, I loved that part!
I love the interactions between Maria and Yusei. For a moment, I thought they were going to kiss. I WISH IT.
Please, please, keep writing this story. I'll wait for the next chapter 3

Oh, Jack...

I'm very interested in reading this, great chappie. :3

This chapter was very good! I loved your explanation avout the different worlds, portals, et cetraas well as the glyphs. I only ever watched a few episodes of 5-Ds, but reading this makes me want to watch even more lmao. I love the interactions between Maria and Yusei, and the subtle but obvious development in their companionship only makes me ship them more. I love slow burns, especially when they reach their peak. In other words, thank you very much for the update, I always look forward to reading new material! Good luck with the next chapters, I can't wait to see where you'll take it! (PS, world building is my favorite part too!)

I'm so glad you're back! I've been missing Yusei and Maria. Looks like things are about to get interesting Loved the chapter :)
Hope you update soon!
