I started your story a year or two back, but then got caught up in my own life and barely over 24 hours ago discovered it again. I was immediately thrilled to find that it was complete(until I finished it and wanted more that is :P). I pulled an all-nighter just to try to finish it. Now it's 4 am and I haven't slept since...but it has totally been worth it. I was hopelessly addicted to this story, (still am) and I can assure you I will probably read it again...and again ^_^ I had the urge to review after every chapter, but I find that if I read a completed story it's probably better for all concerned I just right a loving review at the end <3 I have no idea what makes this story so alluring to me, but I've never been so addicted to another story, fanfiction or otherwise. And that's saying something because I love to read more than anything else. :D But enough of that, I wish you lots of luck in life, and your writing career.

I have been hooked on this fiction for a long time, but have never had any time cleared away to finish it. I turned 18 a year and a half ago, but started reading this probably when I was 15, give or take. I stopped coming here once they put an age blocker on the site with an electronic signature verifying age. I didn't need the government headhunting me over trying to read an awesome piece of fanfiction. I am proud to say that I have read it and sincerely enjoyed each moment. I cried in the last couple of chapters and was in awe at the descriptions of all the parts of the castle. Everything truly had it's purpose in this fic and it parallels the original CCS very nicely. Thank you for your dedication to your writing because it is an inspiration to me, if not all who read this from beginning to afterword.
Best wishes on future projects~!

This was simply EXTRAORDINARY. What a mammoth of an accomplishment you've got on your hands. For two full days, I've been living and breathing nothing else, swept up for the entire ride. Magnificent story-telling. Best of luck to this story's future; I would love to see it published!

OMG, I simply ADORE your fics!! I actually had a craving for one of your fics again a few weeks ago and so searched you up on ff.net, imagine my delight when I read that you actually had new fics on here!! *glomps* you're the best! I love how you can make me laugh and cry along with the characters. Very few authors can make me do that, so thank you! I had the best 2 weeks reading your fics! PS is now one of my top favourites along with "Lotus Reborn", "Behind the Camera", and "Wild Flower"! =) hope I'll see some more fics some time soon! Good luck on finding a job!

Thank you for writing this marvelous epic, dedicating 3 years of your life to it. I spent something like 10 straight hours reading it, but oh, it was so worth it <3 I cried and laughed and had my heart squeezed on so many occasions, not to mention I had to go gather some tissues for more than just tears, but that's just tmi LOL
So, yes, I absolutely adored this fic and I'm so happy you wrote it. I was having a crappy day and this more than made me happy - so thank you. :'D
I know Yue and Touya will have a marvelous life <3

....wow! This story is certainly different to your others but no less enjoyable. You have such a gift with words that you really bring a story alive. I'm always drawn into your stories and the depth that you go into with your characters feelings and reactions is absolutely amazing. I have read all of your works and have thoroughly enjoyed all of them. No matter which pairing you choose for your characters the plots are always so enjoyable and indepth that I find myself eagerly reading the next chapter when I know I should be working or training. Can't wait to read what you have instore for your readers next. ^_^ Solaris

I don't know if you still check back here on aff.net very often (or at all), but I just took the last few days to read through PS in my spare time and I must say I was absolutely blown away. I'd gotten so used to searching through AFF for something with a plot that I clicked on this story merely on a whim while exploring this side of the CSS fandom; I never expected to discover such a gem! This story was absolutely complex and epic and showcased your writing talents brilliantly. Should you ever need or want an editor I have worked with other fanfiction writers as well as a national charity (some of their curriculum) and would be happy to do it for you.
To specifics! What can I say...woof. You're one of the only writers I've found here or at ff.net that I didn't cringe every other page in the story or think to myself in frustration, "That's awkward, why didn't they just say--?" I thoroughly enjoyed Sakura and Syaoran's relationship, preferring it to Yue and Touya's, mostly because I myself like to keep things simple and have a wonderful relationship with my husband. :) I thought you very accurately portrayed the sex slave trade (thought of course things went better for Sakura than they do for most women caught up in it today, thank God!) and the feeling of helplessness and despair that riddles these women's lives. Also surprisingly genuine was how swiftly it happened; many writers depicting kidnapping drag it out, have long chases and second chances and the heroine escaping on her own. In real life that simply isn't an intelligent thing to do without 100% certainty that you can make it to safety, and you wrote it as such. Thank you.
I am frankly still amazed at this piece. It's fantastic. I'm wondering how you'll modify it in order to sell it on the market; many of the aspects of the story are heavily influenced by CCS. I believe you can make it work though-hopefully fairly easily (or not, reading that last commentary-lol, I know you were sooooooo bored after you finished writing this finally!). Again, let me know if you want help with this! :)
I could go on for days, really, but I'd start fangirl giggling and I have to get to sleep, as it's Black Friday tomorrow and I'm going shopping. I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving, and hope to hear from you soon.
With respect, with thanks, with slightly strained eyes and a desperate need for sunlight, peacefully yours-kettish.

I would just like to tell you, that I have read this story over and over again within so many years since i first discovered it. I read, wait some time to let my mind forget the utterly amazingness of it, then read again like a fresh new book. I adore this story, and have kept the link to it hidden away somewhere so I can never lose it again. You are truly amazing. Love this book of yours beyond comprehension. I was lucky enough though, not to have to wait for updates, as it was finished when i discovered it. Goodness, I don't think I would have been able to survive if I did that. The words simply capture me every time. So I thank you, for giving it to this world. Truly remarkable.
