So

It's been 5 years since this was last updated, and I've only just remembered it. I read and reviewed the first time on November 1, 2014. I loved it back then, and I'm sure that I will love it just as much reading it again now, in spite of it never being finished.

I still remember the way it made me feel the first time, all the ideas it gave me. I remember sitting still as stone for HOURS while I trawled through the chapters, totally engrossed in the story you weaved here. It had a serious, unrelenting impact on my own writing and the writing ideas I pursued.

This was the only fic by you that I ever read, and I regret that now, for a lot of reasons. I'll probably go back and read your others, when I get the time. I'm working toward my Bachelor's degree myself, now, so you can imagine how hectic it is trying to write.

I know we didn't know each other. It probably seems insincere of me to say that I hurt knowing you're gone - but it's the truth. You and this story - you had a profound, lasting effect on me. This fic has been sneaking up on me over and over for years. That is the staying power you gave it. That is how dearly I loved it. Your writing directly influenced how my writimg style developed. You, with one story, changed my entire writing career drastically, and I am so, so grateful to you for it. I wouldn't be where I am now if not for reading this, if not for idolizing your writing style and confidence in it.

I know it's silly to leave a message for someone who won't ever get the chance to read it, and to pour my heart out for someone I didn't even know. But I feel it must be said, in the face of now knowing why this was never finished.

Thank you so, so much, Emily. I hope that you're happy wherever you are, and that you didn't suffer. I hope that you have everything you ever wanted and then some. We didn't know each other, but I loved you dearly. You will be missed terribly, but please don't let that bring you down wherever you are.

May you be content and may you be able to write everything you ever wanted to write.

With more love than I can ever hope to articulate,
Allie

This is "andhearts". Can't log into my old account, which kinda sucks, but whatever.

Facebook is a miserable website, so it was only today I learned that you're no longer with us. Don't know what I can say, considering it's been forever and a day, and you're, you know, probably not reading this wherever you are. (Look at me, the atheist trying to leave a message to the dead.)

I guess, I just wanted to leave something for the people who wonder into the reviews, and to leave a message for you.

You were the only person I ever connected with in my ten years on this site, and even now, while not in the KH fandom anymore, I aspire to reach the level your writing is at. Seriously, you're not lying in your last note, this writing is pretty fricking good.

I don't know. I hope if you're somewhere, it's a great place, with good porn and not a lot of idiots. And that when KH3 comes out you get to play it and it's better than the crap us lowly mortals are going to get.

Rest in Peace,
MissTLock (aka andhearts)

Okay, so I wrote this long-ass eloquent essay about how much I loved this fic and how much I wished you would update, but my phone randomly shut off and all of it is lost. So, here's a crappy short review instead:

LOVE Axel and Roxas' side story out of all of the side stories the most. Lobed brain dead Roxas. He made my heart hurt.

I'm excited to see Marluxia and Larxene's side story unfold.

Kairi and Zexion being siblings was a surprising twist. They don't even look alike lol.

Riku and Sora need to Frick frackle already.

It's interesting to see Naminé having actual feelings about something instead of just being a program. I'm excited to see how TTA will change now that she stopped editing the Nobodies' memories.

My heart cried when I saw that this fic hasn't been updated since 2014 (2015?) and I really want to see how this story ends. It would be great if you updated, but it's also understandable that you might be too busy to work on it.

In whatever you do, keep up the good work.

YAY DEME! Wait who's deme

Wow! Wonderful! I especially fell in love with the way you have the two fumble around three languages. I'm a little familiar with German, though I've never seen it written. It's awesome!

I almost died when you made that beautiful reference to canon Kingdom Hearts. "No one will miss me" -Roxas. It was like a stroke of a paintbrush on a canvas of awesome!

So I started reading this earlier this around midnight and just finished it. First off, i love your end note on 40. Your writing is great. There's just so much to take in. I was really hoping for Kairi/Penelo hot angry sex. So pissed when Kytes didn't just tell them about their mutual sex dreams cos it took forever for them to just kiss. Maybe I should have reviewed as i went cos there is so much. Its disheartening the 2nd Bday happened at likr chapter 35 and its on the 5th Bday and I just really hope you update soon

So. Lemme tell you. I started reading this about three days ago for some fun. First of all. You're freaking awesome. I couldn't put my phone down. Seriously. Amazing writing and I truly believe these characters to be on point. I was a little skeptical of Kairi and her alcoholism but man.. You pulled it off. I haven't the slightest how you juggle so many characters and personalities. My favorites are the Twilight Town gang though. I died a little on the inside when I saw your last update was months ago. I know you have like... A real life outside of this Fanfiction.. But tell you what. I really want to draw you some fan art.. Update please?

I believe they're trying to kill off all Others, perhaps...
I love this story, btw. It's great.

I just wanna read about Roxas.

This wasn't what I was expecting.

I apologize but that last part made you look like an asshole... And who the hell is Katt?

I think the owner is a crazy person... Now back to moping about why I haven't posted a highly revered fanfiction based around an entirely original premise, answer isss I am lazy and unsure of things. A lot of the people in the world are dicks.

I liked yours story are you bi lingual

It took quite awhile but I've finally managed to read through the whole fic. Wow, I love how much suspense you worked out in the story. I still want to know how much farther they would go until everything will spill out like who turned Cloud into a vampire, Rock and Alexei reuniting, will Penelo ever gonna be able to communicate well with Namine without being recorded, the people who are still in the system, will they ever get out? etc etc.

Although they are considered high rated criminals, the fact that they got turned into computer digital bits and getting experimented on with "Stimuli" so called Twilight Town School and everything, sits really wrong in my stomach. How Kairi survived the guilt of uploading all these people into the system and holding them in Namine's cage, is really not trivial matter.

I sincerely hope they will manage to do something about Shinra Company. I also hope they can manage to find a way to bond and cooperate and do something about their present situation.

For some of the characters I have no real sympathy, which is just weird. I expected to get attached to Cloud and Sora, cuz I usually like them, but in this story they're so flawed, so wrapped up in their bubble, it's painful not to admit that I'd want to slap them all silly a few times. I guess the only person I felt bad for is Leon, Riku and Axel and Roxas.

Anyway, still, the story is really well done; dystopian sci-fi fantasy mix wrapped up in a tight, tight story so far. And It doesn't look like the story is nearing its ending just yet.

I hope to see more of the story to be honest. So I'll be looking forward to your updates.

OMG You're alive! ; v ; I'm so happy to hear that. First off, congrats on the degree; that's seriously awesome! And secondly, great chapter. This story stuck with me so much that I didn't even have to go back and re-read any chapters to remember what was going on. But even with all the things you could have done differently now that you know, it still fits nicely together. And yes, you are a great writer ;D
