Reviews on Deus Ex Machina by Dejana Talis

Review by JuJube	2009-04-03
This is a very difficult story to read. I felt compelled to read it today, and I think the timing was perfect. I really wish I had more words to compliment how well this is crafted, how true the emotions are, powerful without being raw. But, there are no words. I can only stand in awe and a bit of envy at this. I feel this story was difficult to share. Thank you for sharing it anyway.

Review by Bella*Luna

2006-10-16

One of my favorite things about reading fanfiction...good fanfiction...is that the writers that I tend to be drawn to have taken Naoko's world and answered questions that I've had develop while watching the series and reading the manga.

Is it a choice?

Everything else seems to be a choice.

They don't have to fight, they don't have to protect each other, it is a birth right that they would continually have someone trying to convince them to take but it IS their decision after all. If they wanted to quit they could. If they wanted to never pick up their henshin sticks that would be an option. Is death the same way?

You have done a very eloquent and articulate job of constructing an answer to mine and, I don't doubt, several other people's questions.

While I'm not surprised at Michiru and Haruka's decisions should it come to that, Ami's suggested decisions is a bit of a shock to me. The idea that any of the four "inner" senshi would even decide to leave their princess in the face of 'do you want to return to life?' strikes me as odd....perhaps in the past I might have seen it. They don't have the same connection that they have in the present day, human lives that they live. I understand it feeling more like a chore than a life sometimes but it has always been my opinion that Usagi's open ended love of everyone and everything made the "inner" senshi want to fight for her. Not just because it is their duty but because she is their friend....some of the only family that a few of them feel they have.

You did a great job. Wonderfully written.
