I feel like I mention this on nearly everything, so sorry if I sound like a broken record...but it must be mentioned yet again! I am always floored by what good use you get out of descriptors. Seriously. Every time I read your stuff I come away thinking "geeez i need to invest more time in amping up my descriptors and vocab"...but it appears that maybe I am just too lazy for that xD Doing so much science has left me with a fairly blah vocab for fic, but yours is nice and variable...so whatever you're doing with regards to that, keep it up bc it adds even more dimension to your writing :3 (it probably just comes natural to you, huh bb hulk? haha)
Oh my god. Kai. There are so many things about his character I can relate to, and I just find myself grinning when I read about him and laughing at the things he laughs at :P and he was drinking PEPPERMINT TEA. That is my *favorite* kind of tea. So I almost had a cow. And he talks to his plants...and ya know, a freaky enviro gal like me does that as well. It's the best way to get your skin unhooked from the thorns of an Acacia, I find - just ask politely xD (uh, I'm trying to remember...I think you wrote this *before* our plant child discussion...so this must be where the inspiration for that mess of a convo came from, eh? haha). Ahhh, all of his enviro club flashbacks! I loved them! Kai is my kind of dude...we can go chain ourselves to things together :P And strangely enough, even though I was inundated by people who smoked weed (that is just what you buy when you get into ecology lmao), I was also never a smoker ;) I CONNECT WITH HIM ON A SPIRITUAL LEVEL, OKAY?
Agh, and Reita's crush is so cute ;__; And I really love the way you've described the turn in his emotions for Kai...it's difficult for me to put into words, but...it's very serene and almost pure, in a sense? It's not that typical lust-driven, intense infatuation you get a lot when you read fic. It's a much more natural progression of just *really* enjoying someone as a person and then realizing that 'hey, we click really well...and he's cool...and he's cute. Maybe this is something more...yeah. Definitely something more'. So very nice...I really have enjoyed the progression of their relationship thus far :3
OKAY - I am kind of dying to know the situation between Aoi and Ruki now bc..??? I am drawing such a blank. Aoi is obviously really invested in him, etc. But Ruki says 'I *can't* be with, Aoi.' and what does that mean?? Bc he's afraid he's not enough for Aoi? Something in particular to do w/their past? I just...???? WHAT COULD IT BEEEE. :P (that being said...I think based on the way Aoi behaved in response to the mention of Kai, I *may* have a better idea of what went on in the past to connect certain people...but there is a 95% chance i'm wrong yet again :P)
Ahh, and Reita had finally seen the full gamut of Kai's personal issues. Gah, the scene with Kai was so heartbreaking. While I don't suffer from social anxiety, I certainly have anxiety problems that are often linked to certain aspects of interacting w/people...so I can *kind* of grasp how he feels. That just like..unsinkable feeling that you *can't* do it and you're rooted to your safe place/thing...and trying to move forward and leave that behind is so scary sometimes. Gah, poor bb. I just want to wrap him up and hug him...but I'm sure Reita will have that covered :3
This was lovely, as always. Your writing always brings a smile to my face (even when it's angst, cause i'm fucked like that :P) and helps lift my crappy moods a bit, so <3 YOU GIVE ME FEELS, BBDOLL (AND ALSO HAPPY BDAY :P)
