Oh, I'm so glad you liked it. I actually like this story and I was worried how others would react to it. It's odd but the stories I like people don't like as much. Likewise, those fics I don't like people seem to like better. Weird.

Anyway, thanks for reading! :D

<3 all the way!

It was funny and cute in a slice-of-life kind of way -- very very enjoyable. I totally empathized with Ryoma throughout and was very annoyed with Momo for finishing the shampoo, using up the hot water, and eating enough for 5; the Omake made me groan and laugh at the same time and I couldn't help but pity Ann and wonder at her decision to marry PeachButt...

LOL, great fic!

Haha, I felt bad writing the Omake but I decided my attempt at humor outweighed Momo's and Ann's happiness. But I'm sure they'll forgive me since I expect they'll live happily ever after once Tezuka has another Talk with Momo.

I'm glad you enjoyed the "real life" part. I partly wanted to show the comfortable routine Tezuka and Ryoma established, which, of course, is interrupted by Momo. I loved the idea of their domesticity and I hope it was realistic enough.

I appreciate your thoughts on the fic! :)

Oh god can I understand how annoyed Ryoma must feel. And I don't even like Momoshiro so that intensifies the feeling even more! |D;

Since this is mostly Momo-centric, I'm uh, glad that I managed to make my way through it. No really. Those cute pillar moments are just what I love about them. How they never fight, how they don't break their promises to each other, how Tezuka is so very tolerant, how Ryoma listens to his every word, how Ryoma abandons playing games so he can snuggle up in bed with Tezuka. Oh, my heart. ♥

It's very sweet, sans the Momoshiro part, since I am obviously very biased. ;P I couldn't help but headdesk myself when I read the omake. But oh Tezuka, such a wonderful self-sacrificing buchou. Thank you for sharing. :)

Oh! I just remembered when looking over it again. It's minor, but you spelt "sempai" as "semapi" one time, just thought you'd want to know. :)

LoL, I didn't realize you disliked Momo so much. I think he's not bad of a guy, if a little hot-headed, and I was really tickled by the idea that he'd come running to Ryoma whenever his relationship got rocky.

Yeah, I think writing that first night scene was my favorite part of the story. Of course, if Ryoma didn't leave Momo to go to bed with Tezuka, I would have been very happy to jump in for him. I wasn't sure if making that promise was a bit rash -- after all, Tezuka's too practical to promise something he knows may be impossible to keep -- but I figured a dash of romance (and a bit of OOC o.O) wouldn't hurt. :D

Oh, thank you for catching that mistake! I shall fix it right away! I appreciate your sharp eyes, and your very lovely comment. Thank you for reading! :D

Him and Fuji I have issues with. :D It doesn't really leak through in my fics though, so unless people actually talk to me they won't realize. It's just that his character rubs me the wrong way |D;

You and me both. ;D Well, personally my first thought was that they didn't need to make each other promises, because they wouldn't need that to secure their relationship in the first place. But then I thought about it for a while and realized just how cute it'd be, since, practical or not, Tezuka would humor Ryoma either way and it'd still be the truth. <3 Doesn't hurt at all. :3

Yes, Tezuka would indulge Ryoma, wouldn't he? Who could resist the snarky lil imp?

Wow, you're not a Fuji fan, either? Normally Fuji gets all the love. He's a great side-character for me, even if I don't know how to write him well enough. But yeah, your writing doesn't reflect that at all!

Wow, I'm so excited that you love this fic and it warranted an all-caps comment! I personally liked the story myself but didn't think it was that great. But I'm glad you liked it and now I am gleeful and want to write more fluff.

kishmet and I are starting a fluff revolution to combat all the angst that has been going on recently with this pair. You should join us in our crusade to spread the Pillar Pair fluff! :D

Haha, I'm glad I show just how married they were. I mean, Tezuka even has Ryoma doing the dishes without complaint. And I love the idea of Fuji popping up and asking if he could stay over as well. That would be an interesting *cough* situation. You should write it! :D

Again, thank you for such a lovely, uplifting comment. I'm about to float in the air as my ego has been inflated far beyond normal.

How come she has not told me this? D: KISH.

This idea occurred only a day or two ago in the middle of the night (well, it was in the middle of the night for me so I can't claim coherency). Please help us spread the fluff! :)

This was just too... too... no words to describe this fic. But it was good... really really good. I loved it. I'm not a big fan of Momo/An, but this one was just sweet. And I loved how there is always cuddly TezuRyo ( ... )

Haha, what a hilarious idea -- all the regulars coming over, invited courtesy of Momo. Wish I had thought of that sooner. Alas, it's too late ... but you should write something like that! It would be a lot of fun to read as Ryoma tries to control the situation!

I'm so pleased that you liked the story. But it's odd to see there aren't that many Momo/An pairing fans here. I'm glad that you read it, though. I would have just read it for the Tezu/Ryo scenes myself. :D

How was the movie? My friend wants to watch it since she loves Catherine Zeta-Jones.

Ryoma in control of a situation ? I would think that it would be up to buchou to make everyone run laps. And then, Fuji would 'kindly' remind Tezuka that he is not buchou anymore as everyone run their laps around the bloc.

I would do anything to read TezuRyo scenes even if it has many other pairings. As long as these two are together, I'm happy. Beside, Momoshiro and Ann don't make such a bad couple. But to me, all of the regulars (of all the schools) are just too gay to be into girls. And most of these girls are just too annoying to me. And in the OVA 7 (I think), when they play volley ball, Ryuzaki's body scared them all. ^_-

The movie 'No Reservation' was very good. It was light and enjoyable. It's a movie to see with friends. Comedy/Romance are my favs. However, I did see it in French. Yep, because of the economics situation, the theater don't make enough money (or want to make more money) so they put only big film in English, and more movies in French. Oh well, I guess that's life !

I watched that OVA episode. I, too, was scarred for life. I mean, seriously. I will never look at Ryuzaki or Oji-san the same way again. o.O

I'll tell my friend the movie was good. And watching it in French or English is kewl, I think. At least you can watch it in one of 3 languages -- that's always a plus!
