The last paragraph was the perfect way to sum it up, the last couple of lines especially.

This was an A+ review; your word choice is perfect and it has a great flow to it. If you're not famous one day, I'll be utterly and completely shocked. This review has "pro" scrawled all over it.

Random question: how the hale did you get this to format so nicely on LJ? Whenever I post long stuff like this, it's just a huge chunk of text :|

awww. :3 you're just not saying that, are you? jfc, the flow is nearly what killed me. i have to work so hard on it. i wish it came naturally.

well, in word i just do double space and then i set the alignment to justified. that's what makes it all nice and neat. then i just copy and paste. idk idk. :\

i would never ever just say that bb. there were some spots that seemed awkward upon first reading them, but it was nothing re-reading didn't solve. i can c/p which lines seemed a bit out of place if you want :3
