This was absolutely glorious. You use Shakespeare and the seams of my heart come undone, Ophelia, my beloved Ophelia (Hamlet has always been, for some unknown reason, my favorite Shakespeare play.)

About time I dug out my old dusty tomes of Shakespeare. As much as I love him, though, I think Swinburne is slowly rising up the ranks to rival Eliot and Plath in the department of poetic inspiration. Thematic borrowings along the lines of red mouth like a venomous flower *foams at mouth*

At least with Swinburne I can be inspired to write of the love of men for women, whereas I will always remember that unfortunate Shakespeare biography that stipulated that the object of the famous Sonnets was actually a beautiful young man :|

I will say this now:

I usually despise ItaHina fanfics with a passion. Almost every single time, it's about how "true love conquers all"

Hee. Thank you so much :)

Believe it or not, the role of Laertes-lite was originally to be played by Neji. I think everyone can see why this would have been an unfortunate choice. Eventually, I figured out that the notion of Neji being protective of Hinata is still much too fanon to push, and anyway, someone like Neji is way too astute to be taken in like that.

ItaHina is not my pairing, but I can see the potentials that make them highly interesting. It was quite a writing experience.

Dammit, I had to stop at [b]la belle et le bad boy[/b]. I'll get back to it later though >_> What I've read so far had my panties in a bunch just from your writing style.

*paws at you!*

I need to write shorter stories, no? :D

Hell no. You just need to start sectioning off your longer stories into parts :D It does quite a few things:

1.) Gives us more time to read the loveliness
2.) Gives you a bit of a boost of self-appretiation that you apparently need very badly. (We luffs you for all sorts of reasons Mai D: Why can't you see it?!)
3.) Gives you a reason to be evil. I mean, we'll be begging you for more.

Unf! More story! Faster! Hard-- errrrr Yeah >_>;;;

For the love of--! /chokes/sputters/cries/ HOW do you write like this? How do you write so well that when I read what you've laid out for us, I'm so drawn in, holding my breath at points, my eyes are burning because I'm not blinking enough...

There's something otherworldly about your style and talent; would it be wrong to want to give up a body part in order to grasp it the way you have? XD

So amazing. Yet another memory from you!

Ooh, thanks for the mem. Um, blink, don't hurt yourself ^^; And to answer your question, it totally depends on the bodypart :P

*cries* Thank you for the wonderful comment. I'm so glad you read and put up with the slow, erratic pacing (climax? Ahahah, what climax? XD). And I burst out laughing triumphantly when you caught my placebo ref; I wonder if anyone else will catch the rest of the musical borrowings.

Though not a NaruHina shipper by any stretch, I do respect the canon bond Kishimoto's created for them. We know for a fact that Hinata feels strongly for Naruto; I guess it's easier to dismiss the relationship when writing from his POV (my oblivious flummox), but what proper Hinata writer could bring themselves to do it? 0_o

*blushes furiously and hides*
