guh. just... Gods, talk about intense. This takes things to a whole new level. The last paragraph just blows me away. I love the way Naruto *knew* what would happen and did nothing to stop it, because he understood Sasuke better than anyone else. This is a very awesome fic. Good work.
*Wibbles* I can't believe I thought this was going to be a happy ending! O_O I should know better with you by now... -_-
I'm pretty sure 'Mikoto' was Sasuke's mother's official name, 'Makoto' is the main character in W Juliet and a minor one in FFIX.
Nice flow, good characterisation and wibble factor... but I guess if I'm being completely honest with myself the ending does make sense: Sasuke wanted his mother to remember him as he was instead of the monster he had become.
Oh dear, it seems I need to go double-check some things. And all this time I thought she was 'Makoto'. (Haven't read W Juliet or played more than a few minutes of FFIX.)
Damn it, and here I was wanting to argue with someone about whether my characterization of Sasuke was completely wrong or not. *sighs* Although I had slightly different reasons for choosing the ending that I did.
I sort of knew Sasuke would have trouble adjusting, sort of expected that Sasuke would do something not inherently in the norm. It’s hard learning to deal with something you’ve left behind suddenly coming back to say, ‘Hi. So, how’s it been?’ especially with what’s happened and especially considering the fact that this is Sasuke, who wasn’t really been quite stable to begin with. But, still… ;_;
Someone please pay for his therapy?
I’ve been reading your stuff for a while. Just de-lurking ftm. ^_^
Um, can I please have your authorly permission to forget the last scene of this ever happened? Please? For the love of god?
Because this was the most amazing fic in the universe until I got that bit, and felt like something had just sucked my insides out. D:
GAH Sasuke is so messed up. DX (Not wanting her to see him as he'd become is no reason to KILL HER SASUKE YOU JUST DID WHAT YOU WANTED TO KILL YOUR BROTHER FOR YOU COULD HAVE HAD A HAPPY ENDING GODDAMIT)
