levysbookshelf chapter 3 . 3/16/2015 I'm glad you added the PTSD of Kurogane because I'm pretty sure he got the worst of it. |
ClearMortality chapter 3 . 3/1/2014 I think this last chapter left me with more questions than answers, in an odd sort of way. I'm wondering if you could explain why Kurogane noted Fai's voice to have been sad. I don't see any reason for it to be like that so I'm sort of confused about that one point... Never the less, this story was rather amazing. I'm no fan of violent games but it may me long to play the game this story was based on, just to be able to see for myself how it was to be in the gang's situation. |
SOMEONE RANDOM chapter 3 . 7/19/2013 I couldn't sleep because of this! very well done! |
pseudo-quill chapter 2 . 12/23/2011 This is the first horror fic I've ever read, but I must say I really did enjoy it. I actually avoid horror like the plague because I get nightmares really easy. You used to write for FMA, so I think I can tell you that Ed and Al's mother gave me nightmares. Anyway, the nightmares were worth it, even if I saw Fai's featureless face in my sleep. I've always enjoyed your stories, which is the reason why I read this despite my apprehension, and I definitely do not regret my decision. Please continuing writing, you are an amazingly talented author. |
Kobatanuki 2-C chapter 3 . 10/2/2011 That was soooooooo freaky! I LOVED EVERYTHING! It was very well written! I love everyone's nightmares! Especially Kurogane's and Fai's and Sakura's and well, EVERYONE'S! I really love this story! I'm going to read this over and over again! This is the first horror story I've ever read and I'm glad it was this! I absolutely love everything about it! Oh! And I also love that KuroFai moment! Also Sakura's memory! That was cute! I loved how made it that the feather was with them the whole time! That suprised me! Once again, I love this story to death! XD |
Fatalis The Expiriment chapter 3 . 7/14/2011 Ahahaha... They went to silent hill right? I like Pyramid head Kuro. |
lemon-and-chai chapter 3 . 7/7/2011 Aaah I remember this creepy one. Poor Kuro... it was so awful for him. But I know he'll be okay since Fai is there. |
Vampire-to-B chapter 2 . 3/2/2011 THAT WAS SOOOOO WONDERFULLY TERRIFYING! I FREAKED out when I realized that pyramid head was attacking Fai! That thing has always given me nightmares and then it goes after my darling Fai-chan? Not cool. I was praying for Kuro-rin to come save him but then Kuro-pippy WAS him! That my friend i did not see coming. I lived it amazing job. But could you tell me who's nightmare everyone starts out in? I've thought about it but I can't really tell... |
Jenmoon1 chapter 2 . 2/20/2011 veary good thanks for finishing |
Queerapika chapter 2 . 11/10/2010 I like the contrast of the two chapters. In chapter one, everyone is alone, the nightmares are created and they are getting stronger but in chapter two the characters will be reunited, the nightmares are shattered bit by bit. I also love the explanation, the complexity of the idea and the memory of the feather works very well with the rest of the setting. Oh, and it's sooo cool that Fai knew that pyramid head is Kuro-tan right from the start. Normally it's Kuroganes job to see through the face of the mage. And I love, love, love the surprise blowjob moment. Not just because I'm a perverted fangirlie, but because it makes sense. This gesture is so intimate... if this can't make Kuro-rin wake up, nothing will. And the way Fai cares for Kurogane after the mask and the sword are gone... that's so sweet. |
Queerapika chapter 1 . 11/10/2010 I like the way you play with the length of the scenes. The shorter ones are even more scary than the longer ones, because it's sometimes not clear who's the protagonist and it's hard for the reader to figure out what exactly is happening. Which is good, because horror is in the things one left out. Not knowing is worse than seeing the monster's face. Also, the bold scene (the one with the sentence “I'm invincible.”) kinda freaked me out. It sounded like Kuro's POV but if it's indeed Kuro-tan, he's going insane. And I thought, if he's killing everything and everyone thinking nothing's real although those shadows have the faces of his friends, what will happen if Fai and the kids meet him? I did some research on Celtic mythology because I wanted to write a Halloween story as well and first I thought that your Otherworld has nothing to do with the Celtic Otherworld. But as I kept thinking about it, actually it does. According to the myth's the Otherworld is like heaven, when you're invited. But if you're not, you are attacked by demons and horrors. What you wrote is a perfect horror – the situation fits to every protagonist. Everyone seems to be in his own hell, dominated by his worst nightmare. (I know, your intention was that everyone is trapped in their companion's nightmare but I couldn't figure that out. Maybe they are trapped in nightmares whose basic elements were given by the fears of a companion but the details are influenced by the person in the nightmare – was that what you meant? Or maybe I'm just stupid. XD) Well, in Syaoran's situation I'm not so much referring to the crawling white somethings that he's haunted by, but the fact that he's trying to find a wait out but there is none. It is even scarier that all these things happen in an environment that he should feel save in. I mean, this is... wow, Stephen King would be proud of you! |
lemon-and-chai chapter 2 . 11/2/2010 Oh man, now you have me guessing at whose nightmare was whose. -wracks brain- can't. figure. it out. DX That was a crazy story. I learned my lesson and saved Chapter 2 to read in the morning. Sakura and Syaoran were really brave. Hehehe Fai, he was just taking advantage of the moment. -loves the omake- |
TrueDespair chapter 2 . 11/1/2010 oh yeah, 'that' chat. XD sorry but Uakari told me that a couple days before. XD Now for this story: i have to say 'wow'. I knew that pyramid head would show up but i never thought that Kurogane would be 'said' pyramid head. That threw me off completely. And Fai's face...that was gross. I would've screamed too if i saw something like that. DX Though I was all like 'Are you serious?' when the feather was in Sakura's possession the whole time. All in all, a freaking good horror story. I thought the pacing was okay; not fast but a bit quick. (If that made any sense) and I'm happy that Silent hill and Tsubasa was in this. _ Awesome work~! _ -TrueDespair |
burningdarkfire chapter 1 . 10/28/2010 ... Guess who's not sleeping tonight? T-T I really hope your kuro-fai-fangirl-happy-ending-heart will shine through here and give me an ending that won't have me huddling under my covers for the next few years (I pretty much never read horror, or watch horror, or even go anywhere near enough horror to poke it with a ten foot long stick). *shudders* I think Kurogane's part was the most scary, although Sakura's was quite freaky too. Well written ... too well written XD I'm scared now. XD |
lemon-and-chai chapter 1 . 10/28/2010 GAAAAH I should not have read that just before bed. -dies- At least you promised to end it happily... I think... by setting it in the actual TRC timeline... DX -creeped out- Those white things were the worst part. I definitely don't want to play this game, whatever it is, ever. |
