This was a great read! :D You did awesome work. One thing that really disappointed me about the game is that you couldn't date the guys like you could the girls. This makes me pine for the option to date Akihiko. *woeful sigh* ♥

[flyby311]

I was the same way. XD I kept going, "But I don't want to date those girls DDDDDDD:" Thanks for reading.

Me too

[meimi]

I was so disappointed i mean the guys are way hotter. Oh well that what fanfiction is for right?

[ariseishirou]

This was very well-written! I especially enjoyed the focus on Minato's conciousness of the social links, and little details like the coffee/studying. The portrayal of Akihiko, as well, was perfectly masculine - always a delight.

And Bebe's comment about samurai love cracked me up ;3.

[flyby311]

Thanks for reading! The social links and coffee/studying stuff are such a huge part of the game that I couldn't just ignore it. XD Besides, I do think they help shape the main character's... err... character, so to speak. My poor guy in the game is always getting tired and I'm still pushing him to study all the time because it's close to exams. ^^;

Ahhhhhhhh...finally.I though I was the only one XDDDD

I absolutely love it. LOVE it. Akihiko is surprisingly manly, and I think it's done really well. oh my god, the end, the scene with the kimono...holy crap. Someone needs to do fanart for that. Also, the whole fic has this...serene feeling to it. Not slow, but stready and flowing. It's nice, very dreamy.

Well, you beat me to the punch. I haven't seen anyone else who likes this pairing, and I've been nursing a loooooooong fic for them hoping that I wasn't weird for this pairing. Well...we can be weird together, I guess, XDDD

[flyby311]

Woo! Another Akihiko/Main Character writer! I've always liked the pairing, but honestly, I only started writing this fic because my friend kept fangirling about it with me. XD It was surprisingly easy to write.

Haha, the kimono scene... it's Bebe. I adore Bebe.

Also. Totally keep writing that fic. Or write that fic. Whatever. XD The world does need more Akihiko/Minato fic. :3 You're not weird! The pairing is totally feasible! You know. Somehow. XD

[katsuyakaiba69]

lol, will do! I don't like to post anything under 2000 words, but somehow I've been hording it away at 5000. I guess I wanted it to be a oneshot...I never get what I want, lol

Bebe is awesome! The whole time, I thought he was hitting on me. He probably was, lol. Stay in Japan for me, Bebe.

XD

[flyby311]

I don't post short pieces in comms XD I think it's like, some sort of waste of time or something, haha. But longer is nice! Longer is good! :3

LOL. You too? I kept going, "Bebe, I know you love the main character, but I'm sorry. D: I ship Akihiko/Minato, not you and Minato. DUNHATE."

[legit]

You don't know how much I love you right now...

This is what I've been looking for, for seriously like the longest time--the attention to details, the mention of Bebe (my FAVORITE social link), and Minato's ideas on the whole idea--it's just what the Persona 3 fandom needs: more well-written slash...or fic in general
I know I'm probably making like little to no sense right now, but thanks so much for this fic! It is wonderful, hope to see more from you...

...And me and a friend totally discussed the possibility of Bebe making outfits for cute little Shuujinko, glad to see we weren't the only one's considering it...(^_~)

[flyby311]

Awww, thank you. Also, I LOVE Bebe. Though I keep bashing my head over how I seem to skip the other social links just because Bebe hangs around hopefully and gives you calf eyes or something. D: The guilt of going to do something else!

I think one of the best things about writing about Minato is that you really can mold the character into what you want. You know what you need to do to make social links work, but you don't HAVE to do it that way or you can blow things off or whatever. XD Writing him was surprisingly easy.

I totally see Bebe piling heaps of clothing on Minato and start babbling in a mixture of English and Japanese. The thought makes me grin. :3

[legit]

Haha, me too--I totally blow off people in dire need whenever Bebe appears, I really don't want to max out his commu though, and sometimes I give the wrong answers so our relationship's in a rut sometimes, but he's really the sweetest one besides Maiko in my opinion...

Man, I was having so much trouble writing him actually, but I've never thought of it like that. For me all the Megaten characters all seemed to have thier own personalities, you just had to look really hard for them...

I can see him getting Minato in a maid outfit...that would be so awesome.

[flyby311]

Ugh, I know. I don't need to max out his commu. His commu is certainly not important to me, but.. I can't leave him alone XD

Oh yes, I think they all have their own personalities too. Some of them are just... a little more difficult to puzzle out than others. XD Minato, for instance, is one of the harder ones for me.

The maid outfit thing? Really would be awesome.

OMG, you have no idea how much I love you right now, author-sama! Kudos to you for a nicely written Akihiko/Minato! I hope to read more!

[flyby311]

Haha, thanks very much!

[o_pessimist]

I'm adding you as a friend - I hope you accept! [crosses fingers]

[flyby311]

Friended you back. ^^ Though if you're adding me for the fics, all of my non-original stuff is public :O Well. Okay, not that one or two really racy bits that I would never leave public. XD;
