Thank you very much for your comment. I'm really flattered that you took the time and I appreciate the thought that you put into it.

I definitely see where you're coming from about the second part. I did feel concern that it wrapped up too quickly. Frankly, I was running low on time. ^^ There is more that I wanted to get into, such as that it's not really all roses overnight. They still have a long road ahead of them and they will definitely go off track sometimes. They have huge issues still to work through, like the rape. The journey has only started. I guess in trying to give the story a hopeful ending I may have portrayed it as too rosy. Hmmm.

I do, however, think that a life-altering change of mindset can happen overnight, when caused by a significant enough event. I've seen it happen in people I know. It's happened to me. Eames found out his mother died as a result of abuse, and then he almost killed Arthur. It forced his eyes to open, so to speak. Same goes for Arthur ( ... )

I really love this story. I think you did an excellent job with it. I feel like I'm repeating myself, but it's all true! XD

I just felt the need to comment on all your posts of this. Not only because I'm your artist (*high-fives*), but also because a story like this deserves as much recognition as it can get for being so honest and raw. You truly did amazing work here. Congratulations! *HUGS* ^__^* ♥

(I do still want a sequel, though. Lol. ;P)

This is just an amazing story. So heart-breaking and dark, but so true to humanity. It was hard to read, but in a 'good' way. Great job, really.

Wow. Intense read. I can tell you put a lot of thought into making this real while still keeping everyone in charaacter. You didn' t shy away from a hard topic. You went there but also treated it with respect and the aim to educate. Thank you for your work.
