Re: After the Dream—Lilly's Arc (Complete)

It's not very good. I'm sorry. It is by FAR the weakest section of your multi-story story. So far it's the only one I've read that isn't told directly from a characters point of view or even their memories and the lack of inner monologue really hurts it. I just never get a feeling for how she's taki...

Re: After the Dream—Hanako's Arc (Complete)

Nicely done. I think this is one of the better “After” stories. While the idea that all these characters lives around each other and they never met anyone else as important comes across as forced in some of the other stories, it fits for Hanako. I also like how you've managed to make her much more e...

Re: Word of Mouth (On Hold)

You start out really strong with a cast that has just enough time to make you care about them before they disappear forever. It's followed up with an even more impressive dramatic wallow in depression section where our “hero” finds out what's wrong with him and has time to dwell on it. Then you cras...

Re: Yamaku's Cheshire Cat [Short, Miki and Hanako]

Well, that was short and cute.

It just seems to have a lot of build up and backstory for something that's over so quick.

Re: (Un)broken (Emi prologue) [Updated 8/18]

Nice story. You do a good job at adding some humanity to the Nurse and making Emi's father into a likeable character in the short time he's there. Still, the pace of events feels like it's rushing far too fast and it's hard to get a grasp on Emi. Her maturity seems to bounce back and forth from scen...

Re: Terminology debate - "mute" versus "voice-off"

Some people just get offended too easily. Given the choice between changing the way I speak and behave and outright avoiding them, I'd rather just avoid them. Interesting question: what do you call someone with substantial lower-limb impairment that precludes a normal range of locomotion? Such peopl...

Re: The Official KS Headcanon Thread

Even after Hanako and Hisao move into together, Hanako will still insist on having a separate bedroom. She won't use it all the time, but she'll still have the need to have a room she can isolate herself in from time to time.

Re: Anyone else hate Misha?

Actually, this one of the points that polarises people. I'd argue that it is a good route simply because you have so little choice, and that this particular choice is arguably a simple test of whether you've been paying attention or not and whether your particular interpretation of the word "comfor...

Who is this?” I say into my phone. “It's me, Mihoshi,” the voice on the other end of the phone identifies herself. “You did forget me didn't you. I'd take it personally if...

Re: The Official KS Headcanon Thread

Despite the number of fanfics to the contrary, I've always been a bit dubious about the characters returning to Yamaku after finishing their educations. I can see a case for Hisao and maaaaaaybe Hanako, but I don't think the others have such an affection for the place (speculation regarding the Hak...
