I love Ando and Minako! I say it on every comment but I wanted to hug and kiss him for standing up for Minako. Takeshi bad suggestion!

Ando and Minako going back and forth "No, Mamoru hates you!" and throw in Usagi and its one of the cutest scenes.

Ami so concerned about Minako catching hypothermia in November and running after her with no coat, what a good friend Ami is.

Stupid travels in pairs! I love that line and I love you and I love this story! :)

I love Ando and Minako too and I can't hide it, which is why they get so many scenes together. :)

Thank you so much for your wonderful and kind comment! I love that you love this story! This makes me supremely happy!

i am so, so, SO woefully behind on leaving reviews, i am on the verge of asking you to be less prolific so i can be less of an ingrate :P i know i owe you lots more, but i'm starting here because WHOA: this chapter absolutely murdered me. lytton, i was on the edge of my seat; i was biting my nails; i was cheering; i was wibbling; i was freaking the hell out; I WAS DOING IT ALL.

Mamoru crossed his arms over his chest and glared at the host. Behind the camera, Ando frantically shook his head, and Mamoru uncrossed his arms again.first off, that television interviewer? ugh, i could just feel the slime and excess bronzer through my computer screen. you just have to love usagi's effortless charm in this part, whereas i don't know if you're trying to make us very annoyed at mamoru (well, i never loved him much to begin with so that helps :P) BUT IT'S WORKING. and yet i can understand where he's coming from. it's so patently unfair that all they've done is save tokyo, yet again, and yet his sweet, loving wife has to get on tv and cry on cue ( ... )

Aspara, thank you so much. I am absolutely delighted that this chapter brought forth such a strong reaction!

first off, that television interviewer? ugh, i could just feel the slime and excess bronzer through my computer screen.
Have you seen The Hunger Games? Caesar Flickerman was my inspiration for the interviewer. In the first draft, he was super serious, but that changed very quickly.

it's so patently unfair that all they've done is save tokyo, yet again, and yet his sweet, loving wife has to get on tv and cry on cue and allow cameras into their lives to make people understand. so, yeah, mamoru, i get it...but still. mug for the camera, damn it!Where Usagi has this easy charm that makes people flock to her, Mamoru is more of an acquired taste. And while he logically knows that he should just smile and make a stupid face for the camera, he. simply ( ... )

UGH BOYS ARE JUST SO STUPID RIGHT NOW.
I think I should use this as a summary for the rest of the story :)

Thank you so much for your generous comment! You are the best drunken sailor I've ever met.

Freaking Ando. You fucking Martyr. I love you, but you're taking the other people down with you too. It's admirable.. but dammit i haven't decided if what you did was good or not. I'm proud of you baby...but I still think you're dumb. Why the fuck are you fighting Takeshi when you should be consoling Minako. Of course, acting before you think again.
And this hits the nail on the head. I want to put this on Ando's character sheet. Sweet but dumb martyr searching for person to keep himself from landing in deep shit.

Okay. I'm going to wrap up this review before I lose even more coherency. I apologize for the unnecessary cursing.
I LOVED this review!

Yeah, still feeling like there's a hole in my chest.

I will review this and the most awesome fairy story fic as soon as I catch up on some much needed Zs. But for now, I kid you not, I would be weeping right now if it weren't for the fact that Usagi is adorable in this and that Kunzite as a beast and Nephrite as a Gargoyle was a stroke of brilliance. I'm still smiling. You are an awesome writer, you move me from tears to giggles. HOW?!?!?!?

Sweetie, you do the same. From Hush to Hooligans to Serenity to Trauma and back again. Heart in holes meets stomach cramps from laughing.
