The Street Rat and the Gentleman: Chapter 8

Oct 06, 2008 19:00

How long has it been? And how short and unsatisfying is this chapter? Anyway, I hope the wait wasn't too bad. I haven't had a lot of time on my hands recently, but this really has been fun to work on! The way I'm looking at it, we don't have too much father to go...
also, every chapter will probably seem like filler, there, I said it.

Man, that last scene was beautiful. ^^

It's interesting seeing the development in Layton's character - and all because of these innocent little words from Luke (still written wonderfully in character, just so you know). The conversation with Ms Anderson has me concerned, though - she brought up a lot of points that you may (or may not) wind up resolving later on... My sympathies were mostly for Luke, but now Layton starting to seem as awkward and unconfident of his mindset, just like Luke is of his abilities...

Anyhow - I'm truly glad you updated. ^^ It was awesome to read your work, again.

Thank you! :)

The conversation will most definitely be addressed! I don't like leaving gaping holes. Layton's dismissal of children, his emotional issues; those will be addressed soon. While Luke's development is moving in a forward method, I think that Layton's is moving backward - in the sense that what affects Luke's character are present events, while Layton resolves the events of his past. Okay, that doesn't make sense. ^__^;

Luke makes Layton uncomfortable with how he has always thought...while Luke changes because of Layton, Layton also changes because of Luke.

Thank you so much for reading! I really enjoy the feedback! :DD

OMG YOUR COMMENT MAKES ME SO HAPPY, YES WRITERZ LIEK LONG COMMENTS <3<3

Glad you like Ms. Anderson - I usually don't want OCs to pervade a story, but if they have to I'm glad they're likable, at least. :)

COLD LAYTON. ONLY YOU CAN SAVE HIM, LUKE. :DD
Thank you <33

I assault Layton with guilt, it's kind of like a bad habit. SO WRONG, BUT SO FUN.

Oh my, short of breath? Wow...I really don't know what to say. ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥!

YOU REMIND ME THAT I REALLY REALLY REALLY NEED TO WATCH HOUSE MORE. I FORGOT HOW MUCH I LOVED THAT SHOW. :DD

Yeah the long wait between chapters (.__.) makes it hard to remember details, even for me as the writer. I have to keep a word document where I write random info so I don't leave any loose ends or forget details. ^_^;

OMG THANK YOU SO MUCH I LOVE YOUR RAW COMMENTARIES THEY ARE JUST HEARTWARMING. <3<3<3<3

Wow, I bet that was extremely confusing! xD It definitely makes a lot more sense if you've read the other chapters!

Thank you so much - I'm so happy you enjoyed it!! :DD

UWAAAAAAAAAH.

UWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH~

I saw this posted on the comm and realized I hadn't read any of this story. So basically, my evenin consisted of reading a chapter, flailing like a wild, glee-filled fangirl, then reading the next chapter, fangirling, etc, etc. Oh, and there was some tearing up at time too, of course. Because, holy shit, this is SO DAMN GOOD. I feel a little bad saying this, but I'm really happy I didn't read it until now because I don't think I would have survived the anticipation for the next chapter!

I love your characterization and your style and everything about this story. I don't think anything, even the game, has made me want to draw these characters more! I'm so in love with this story, I can't wait for the next chapter!

Thanks for writing this, it's been such a pleasure to read so far!
