Review by Ashaela 2007-01-10

I thought it was really good! Cute without being cutesy, if that makes sense. Endymion seems a little more naive than I might have expected, but it works nicely with the contrast to Jadeite's attitude. :-)

Author's response:

Thank you so much! And yay for no cutesy. I haaaate cutesy (unless it serves a purpose).

Keep in mind that Endymion (and Jadeite and Nephrite) are relatively young when this happens. They've probably just turned sixteen (making Zoisite around fourteen and Kunzite seventeen in my head), and up until very recently, I doubt Endymion has been around females much. It's mostly been him and the Shitennou for years and years, and he hasn't had any problem with that. But now there are balls and marriage talk and he's like, "Wait, when did I start liking girls? I only know how to talk to boys; what do I do?!" So he naturally goes to the two flirts in the group. I'd wager they think Zoisite prefers men (hence the dress comments; which by the way did actually happen and may get written about) and Kunzite, as Endymion, is useless.

Venus of course will whole-heartedly disagree when they meet.

And yes, there are times I love Jadeite. There are other times when I want to kick him in the face, but here it works. XD Thanks again for the review!

That was very cute. I like the way that you had the three interact with each other. It was very friendly and companion-esc. Good job. :)

Author's response:

That's what I feel they are, so that's how they act. :D People tend to write the Shitennou has being associates and the Guardian Senshi as friends, when I feel it was the exact opposite. In my head, the Shitennou trained together, whereas the Senshi underwent a lot of training by themselves on their home planets. Then they were taken away from home, their identities were taken away from them, and they were essentially thrown together to protect on princess. And of course, when they meet, they're maybe just entering into adolescence, or as I like to call it, bitch season. Even though over time they learn to function as a group and perhaps even like each other, it's doubtful that they ever got as close as they do in the 20th century.

Rambling over. I'm very happy you enjoyed and thank you very much for the review!
