Imagine, I don't check for a week, and I see up to chapter 33! It was a good story, with a pretty sad ending, but I liked it all the same (though I feel worse for everyone than Cloud). Looking foward to reading your next project!

Congratulations on completing your series! Something so long and complex was an ambitious choice for a first fic and a lot of people would have given up on it, but you're still going back and tweaking things after it's all posted.

I know what you mean about chapters 31 and 32 seeming a tad fast, but I'm not sure exactly how. I can see Cid finally doing something about his relationship with Zet just to distract himself from grief. Maybe the chapters just need general elaboration on what's going on, what's in people's heads...? And I think chapter 28 would be stronger if it wasn't so careful about noting what everyone was doing at any given time. Vincent (or Nanaki, or whoever's POV it happens to be at the time) probably wouldn't be looking around and noticing everyone's reactions when there are more pressing things at hand. A character's POV is more powerful when we know what they know and no more -- it's like really slipping into their skin.

Keep up the good, dedicated work, and best of luck on your future fics!

Yay! I can't wait for Ciiiid.
And I like how Cid and Zet are turning out. @-@ -Flails.- That chapter, like, made my heart all like OMGHOLLOW. Because I was aaaanxious. Poor Tifa, I feel so bad for her.

And I'm not sure. They said I wasn't 18+, but I am... This girl I know here that hates me might have set me up. People are shallow. Rawr. As long as I can still review, it doesn't matter.

Anywho. n_n Can't wait for the next chapter, even though you just updated. x3 Your updates always make me happy.

this is a great story ( undoubtably the best FF7 fic and propably one of the best videogame fics on AFF)
keep up the good work

PS. did you borrow that monsters with gill and stuff from Legendary frogs: all about random battles ( if you haven't heard of it it's a flash animation
on legendarylilypad.com, it's a must see)

Quote: myes, i have no idea why these random monsters carry 1326 Gill and a magical fire ring, it will forever be a mystery.

Aw damn. I see where this is going... *sigh* I guess if Aeris could never come back, we can't expect Cloud to.

Or can we?

Hmm, I'll keep tuning in to see. Still an awesome story to me either way, even though I'm way more T/C than T/V.

Whoo! @@ I had to catch up quiiiick. Eep.

Since its really really late and I haven't slept for over 24 hoooours... :3 Short review. Apologies!
... Wow. Is that whole monster with the fire ring and gil thing... XD I was reminded of All about random battles. Muwaha.
I LOVE YOUR CAMEOS. I don't think I said that before. x3 Cameoscameosyayay.

I was on the edge every second when Vincent raised his gun. O_O Literally. PoorCid. TT;

The flashback of Vincent's arm.. with Hojo.. it made me actually very uneasy, and cringe a lot. Which is most certainly a good thing! It's hard to make me cringe! -Whacks chest with fists.- I love how you can make me feel the emotions of the characters, the paaaain. I swear, I kept looking down at my arm the whole time, makin' sure that tingly feeling was just coincidental! x_o

But then it was happyyaygiddycandygum dropsandsugarfuntimeland!! And then... it wasn't! I love the angsty drama. AGH. That was... a really.. really.. unexpected way to end that chapter. Wow. I love it. Loveitloveitloveiiiit. I'm happy to know its not -that- close to the end either. n_____n
