Can't stand it. I HAVE NO CONTROL. (Hangs head in shame.)
I truly wasn't going to read this til the whole story was posted. Look how long THAT New Years Res lasted. Sigh.
Kyo and Hiro. Had to happen. Also, first pairing I've ever seen for Hiro that my gut and brain are totally cool with. Hiro's response to Kyo's advances is great. He's the one solid rock that is the foundation for all sanity in the actual series, and it's totally believable that he'd kiss then hold back. In his experience, sky-rockets are not necessarily the greatest foundation for a relationship. (i.e. what's happened with Shu and Yuki.)
I also really like the kaleidoscopic approach to story telling. Too much time overlap can make a story stale---generally it's better to keep the arrow of time moving forward... to choose the most effective VP for a given time period and pick up the alternate impressions in another segement--- but in this instance, these two chapters (combined with the same time sequence from Yuki's POV at the end of the last book) works very effectively. Mainly because you're handling the viewpoints so very well.
Did I mention I loved Kyo's VP? :D:D:D

Well, I'm really glad that Kyo and Hiro might have something together. I love Kyo and really didn't want to see him hurt for long. BUt how about my other fav character, Ryo? I do hope that he will find some sort of peace or happiness. More? Oh! Happy new year!

Towards the end of Realities of Life the angst was really getting to me. I was feeling really pissed at Shuichi for seeming to be so indicisive and I just wanted to castrate Kyo. This opening chapter is hopeful with Kyo's declaration that he knows Shu belongs to Eiri (and I certainly didn't see the set up coming). It's your story of course but I really hope it's not going to end like Casablanca, with Shu & Eiri going their seperate ways - not after all of this.

Ello again! I love this series so much its insane! ^______^ In the begin of this series when we first met Kyosuke I really didnt like him at all...but now....I LOVE HIM! <33 He truly is a wonderful guy. I wish he and Shu would be together, but I would want to do that to poor Eiri ><. I love it when Kyo said "...Blonde-haired, mean-thing" or something like that. It was so funny to me! If you continue on with the KyoXHiro pairing, that would be nice ^^. Hiro needs to be with a calm caring guy like himself..... Keep up the awesome work! (This should become an anime, i swear XD) -Alethea<3
