Spleef, I've finally gotten around to reading this and OMFG *foams at the mouth*, I LOVE IT. The story, the smut, everyone's in character. This story is giving me a literary boner.
ALSO...Lo and LI remind me of Patty and Selma from the Simpsons. Just had to share that with you.

Is it wrong that I laughed when Katara crushed the strawberry with her iron box? I couldn't help it. Then I hoped that Zuko got all the bits out, cause if he forgot some...I don't want to think about what would happen.

Thank you SO much for the alternate ending, though I did like Toph having Zuko's kid in the epilogue.

And Ty Lee totally seducing Aang.

I can't read chapter 14 cause the words are all squished together. Otherwise, this story is epic. Really epic.

I loved this entire series of stories from beginning to end. By far some of the finest fanfiction around. Don't ever stop writing!

I actually liked the original ending better than the alternate. But then, I'm always a big fan of tragedy.

Chapter 38. Oh my god, I'm so glad I pushed through the first Epilogue--I felt like I had just wasted my time reading such a long story! I understand that character deaths are meant to be powerful and leave the reader with a different set of emotions and thoughts after a story, but this character death just felt poorly executed... Rather than feeling thoughtful and greatly impacted by the incident, I just felt dissatisfied and gypped. I barely even read the remaining chapters, and only skimmed through them, growing annoyed with the fact that I had spent so many hours this weekend going through and reading this story as fast I could. This whole story had seemed to have everyone fluctuate in and out of character, especially after Zuko and Katara got together, and Katara's death just made me so frustrated that I had kept with the story for so long! I haven't actually read the remaining chapters yet--I felt like I had to review immediately once I remembered that you created an alternative ending--but let me just say that I AM SO HAPPY that you decided to lead the story in two different directions, rather than just leave us with that really unsatisfying finish. Despite my qualms about the characterization, you certainly do have a way with plot, and your perspectives on certain occurrences in canon are definitely interesting. Thank you, really, for taking the time to write this story and share it with us, and most of all, for keeping Katara alive after 30+ chapters of build up!

Yes! :) I'm finally done with all of it. Thank you, again, for taking the time and energy to write all of this! I already mentioned my previous issues with the original ending (not simply because Katara died, but truly because I couldn't connect with the emotional reactions of the characters in the story after it happened), but I just want to say that it's obvious how much work you put into your writing, and I admire the dedication you hold to finishing all of your stories, not matter how intense and intricate the load can be. I was obviously much happier with the Alternate Ending not only because it was happier, but also because I felt the characterization that occurred was more appropriate (but of course, to each their own!) I'm really happy that I came across this story and that I did push through and read all of it--it was a very realistic interpretation of what could have happened, and I was really impressed by the range of canon events that you molded into your story. I will definitely need a break after such a long reading haul, but I hope to read more of your stories in the future. :) Thank you, again!

:/ I've been so in love with this story for every chapter up until now. I had intended to read it through first and then go back and review later, but when I came to this fight scene where Zuko responded horribly, I just couldn't wait. I'm especially disappointed with how he keeps calling her "peasant" after what he said earlier. This chapter is definitely not my favorite for characterization, and I hope I find myself happier about the next chapters. I love your writing and I really want to feel the same way about the next chapters as I did for the ones before this!

I loved the Puppetmaster chapter! Much, much more satisfied with the characterization and the development between Zuko and Katara. And I loved the bit of naughtiness, as well!

I first started to read your story on FF.net but then I came here to read read everything. This story was amazing! I loved it from beginning to end. Your descriptions are beautiful and the plot was amazing! I liked how you changed things around in a way that didn't seem at all impossible. The way their relationship grew and I loved all of their interactions! I've started to read the next story of the series and already I'm hooked :D Thank you for sharing your wonderful stories!
