Re: Ungraceful Reunion - An Emilogue (Chap 2 - Updated 7/28/

Very good chapter - and I rarely say that about chapters containing H-scenes. After chapter 1 I was more or less hoping for Hisao and Emi getting back together. Now that I know that would necessitate him frst breaking up with his current girlfriend I changed my mind :-) Thank you, I appreciate it! ...

Re: Ungraceful Reunion - An Emi Epilogue (Back from the dead

Chapter 2 - Thoughts Aflutter “That does not look anything like an elephant.” “C’mon Hisao, you’ve gotta use your imagination!” “No, I think you’ve gotta get your eyes checked, Tsu.” This comment earns me a light punch in the arm and a pout from the woman sitting next to me. I chuckle, savoring her...

Re: From Tokyo To Mumbai

I'm already liking where this is going, especially because it feels like something pretty different compared to a lot of other fics out there. Kana seems like she's going to be an interesting character, so I'm looking forward to Hisao's future interactions with her. I also like the subtle nod to His...

Re: Ungraceful Reunion - An Emi Epilogue (Back from the dead

I think it should be "my apartment" or "my apartment complex/building" then "I can see it..." I didn't even notice that while editing, thank you for pointing it out! Overall I thought this was a really interesting read. You say it takes place after Emi's Good Ending, b...

Re: Emi Epilogue - Stopping Short (UPDATED 5/25/2015: CHAPTE

Among the routes of KS I liked Shizune's least of all for various reasons, but that choice is not one of them. Interesting, you and I seem to share the same feelings for the KS routes (just didn't feel like quoting the entire post, though). Alright, thank you for sharing, I just wanted to know your...

Re: Emi Epilogue - Stopping Short (UPDATED 4/8/2015: CHAPTER

Depends on the genre: 'slice of life' tends to not be so fantastical (or 'phantastic' to use a very old word) unless it involves magic realism. The writing itself is fine. My response after reading the two cycles (ha ha) was to laugh, shake my head, and think 'shit happens'. The point I suppose was...

Re: Emi Epilogue - Stopping Short (UPDATED 4/8/2015: CHAPTER

Because the reasoning that leads to the first choice is a sound one. It's not even hinted at in the story that it is in any way wrong. It just alters his "placement" such that an almost Rube-Goldberg -like chain of events* sets in that leads to his death - and that's what I meant by a &qu...

Re: Emi Epilogue - Stopping Short (UPDATED 4/8/2015: CHAPTER

That was nice. A little....unexpected, but nice. Reminds me of the Kenji end, in that your choices actually have little to do with the outcome, just the fact that they put you in position for that outcome. Yeah, that's kinda what I was going for. The world essentially stays the same in both endings...

Re: Emi Epilogue - Stopping Short (UPDATED 4/8/2015: CHAPTER

Stopping Short – Chapter 5: The Finale Decision 2: Find and talk to Emi Standing here and staring at that arch will solve nothing. I care about her. I want to see her. I want to be there as comfort and reassurance. This isn’t to save her. This isn’t to protect her. This is to show that I love and s...

Re: Emi Epilogue - Stopping Short (UPDATED 4/8/2015: CHAPTER

Stopping Short – Chapter 5: The Finale Decision 1: Wait for Emi outside Barging in on my white charger to “save the day” can’t be a good idea. I may be able to talk to her and get her to realize that I care, but in the end she’ll probably just see it as me being the hero that protects my so-called ...

Re: Emi Epilogue - Stopping Short (UPDATED 4/8/2015: CHAPTER

Start Date: April 8, 2015 *NOTE* I will probably continue to refer to Emi's hair as pink. Sorry if that bothers you. Also, sorry for taking so long with this. Exams were killing me. :c Now go enjoy the finale of Stopping Short. <3 EDIT: For the curious, the "special reward" will be reveale...

Re: Emi Epilogue - Stopping Short (UPDATED 4/8/2015: CHAPTER

So, um, I assume no one will assault me if I happily return to referring to Emi's hair as "pink?" Because I'll probably end up doing it subconsciously anyway.

Re: Emi Epilogue - Stopping Short (UPDATED 4/8/2015: CHAPTER

If you slightly adjust the magenta/green balance in any image of Emi, her hair definitively turns pink. Particularly since some people are red/green colorblind and everybody sees color slightly differently, it's not impossible that some people would see Emi's hair color as pinkish. I love you forev...

Re: Emi Epilogue - Stopping Short (UPDATED 4/8/2015: CHAPTER

Just read this thing. My thoughts: Hhmmm. Interesting. Also, stop being so f***ing confusing, Emi :evil: ! Quick mention of two things a) Emi's hair ain't pink. That does annoy me. b) The whole thing with Iwanako does strike me as really contrived. Not to say that I hate where the story is going wi...
