    Awesome. I liked the fact that there was no rushing and they weren't OOC. Thanks for the
    'fake' chapter 5, it was a good one!

    Well, I have been checking daily to see whether there is an update or not, but alas, nothing yet so far. This is such a wonderful, well-written, witty and
    captivating piece of work, it is cruel to leave us readers hanging like this, you know. I hope your muse is working overtime right now, and yes, update soon.

    With a story as good as this, you really shouldn't be having any self esteem issues. Please write more soon.

    Very nice. Please, don't worry about this story being bad. It's so far ahead of anything else I've ever read in this category that it could never be considered bad by any stretch of the word. Unless the world got reversed somehow... which would be interesting, but not if it meant that everything that was good turned bad. That would be bad. Bleh- I need to sleep. Keep writing, and thanks for sharing. =]

    *glomp*

    I'm not finished yet, but GAH. Finally! Almost every story I'd read has Kurama practically a lesbian and Hiei some wide eyed innocent virgin. Very wel written.

    I really like where you are taking this fic. You are one of the few people who has come close to representing what this couple would be like if it were canon. There are thousands of different takes that could be plausible but there are not enough talented writers to explore them all. Every time I read a new chapter I end with a smile on my face.

    I also wanted to say that I don't think you should ever fear bad reviews if you even have one person who likes what you are writing. For every good review there will be ten or twenty bad sometimes, just remember that one word of praise is worth ten curses thrown in your face, because that one is definately sincere.

    I can't wait for the next installment! Thank you.

    I thought it was great. One of the best attributes of your writing is that you keep the guys "in character" to a degree, but allow them to grow. Let me explain that; it is a compliment. You started with the guys completely in character. Now, to someone who only read this chapter, they may seem "out of character" in that they are doing this at all. But the progression of the story puts them "in character" in this chapter, giving them a believable behavior, but allowing you the artistic license to do as you please. That's the really wordy way of saying I like where you're going and how you're getting there. I look forward to more.

    There is no need for self-esteem problems on your end.

    Still written wonderfully, I loved the lime scene and how you portrayed Hiei's inexperience, very accuate. You have truly kept them in character.

    More, I demand more!

    And lemons! yes! Lemons!

    That was actually pretty well. Hiei's opening up to Kurama took time and I like that. Shiori walking to check on them is so hilarious. I'm just glad she didn't come in while Hiei was pleasuring kurama. YAYNESS!

    Great chapter. I hope there's more, it almost sounds like the end. I think Hiei needs to be on the receiving end of Kurama's experience.

    I think you did a very good job on this chapter. There was just one thing from canon that you got wrong. Kurama has cried once. Only once, but still once. He cried in the manga when he rejoined his mother after finding out that she was going to live. But I think you're story is great so far. ^^

    This chapter gave me mixed feelings.
    First, I really liked the way you portrayed Hiei as he was watching Kurama and Shiori hug.
    It was pretty painful to read; I really love our little fire demon. So sad!!!

    But, I also felt a little disappointed with the way Shiori seems to be getting a bigger part than I wished.
    Many Kurama/Hiei fanfic authors tend to use Shiori as a big conflict factor, but I like it better when the fic focuses on Kurama and Hiei themselves, not their surrounding family (ex. Shiori, Yukina) In my opinion, Kurama and Hiei would have a very private relationship, very restrained on the outside, but much more intense when they do interact.

    Don't worry, your fic is still great!
    Just my two cents, tastes differ.
    Your story is awesome so far, I'll be waiting for more!

    I loved your latest chapter and look forward to the next. I love your grouchy Hiei and patient Kurama and their evolving relationship.

    First of all, I wanted you to know that your summary was just this side of off-putting. It did draw me in, just to see if you lived up to it's claim. Which you did, have no fear of that, but a good summary it what draws a reader to your story, so be careful about sounding too arrogant. As for the story itself, I think you've been doing an excelent job staying *truly* in character. With most characters there tends to develop a 'fannon' characterization, which is fine, but you have done an exemplary job at staying true to the cannon characterization. My one complaint is on your paceing. You seem to feel that you're going too slow, but I feel that this might be causeing you to rush things. Hiei's such a reserved character, and very much into self denial (as in the situation with his sister). I think you might be pushing him to realizations too quickly. I know we readers are often impatient and clamor for more action, but let the story develop at it's own pace. Don't give in to readers or your own impatience. I will be eagerly looking forward to seeing more of this. Keep up the good work.
