OMIGODOMIGODOMIGOD YESYESYESYESYES YUUUUUUUUUSSSS!

You must finish this! I NEED this story! Please update! Please please pleeeeeaaaaaase!

AH-MAZING STORY! I can't believe it's been over two years since you've updated. I like this, it's really good. So, I politely ask you to come back, and write another chapter. Please, and thank you.

Please continue this, pretty please?

It was just getting good!

I'm liking this so far! Update soon, pretty please!

Nice chappie! Update soon!

Yay, new chappie!

You MUST continue it, I beg of you!

That...was...AWESOME!

I can't wait till Dory comes into play! This is just so good i can't even describe it!

Since this is a human AU, maybe you should make the 'Tank Gang' kids and teenagers. I think that would be good to read. It would be more interesting too. The corporation could have kidnapped them when they were little like Nemo.

I like it a lot! Update soon! :DD!

wonderful! as i've said before i just love this humanization!

exspecially the "then we look to the left, then the right, then the left, then the right..etc. "

It was also funny how he talked about meeting a "scary guy" and "sea gypsy"

this si awesome! i can't wait for more!

WOW! that was great! I love the references to clownfish, for example, his fav. fish, that he was a comedian (although marlin wasn't funny in the movie)

I also like how you humanized the story, for example , how nemo's arm was taken off, the stalker, the ocean. its just great!

E YOU UPDATED ALREADY AND IT MAKES ME HAPPY E!

(ahem) Regaining composure...

I was actually very impressed with how you transferred scenes from the movie into this. They fit very naturally, especially Marlin's comedy routine xD . Nice job with that. I LOVE that audio track of Albert Brooks screwing up a joke on the DVD so much, it makes me laugh even still.

"You know the mark of a really funny fish? The joke doesn't always have to be right. It's the DE-LIVER-Y!"

xD I love that DVD to pieces.

Anyways, I can't wait for you to introduce Dory, as I'm sure she'll be awesome. This is interesting so far! Please update soon.

Oh, and because I feel this must be addressed...

"'SHELDON!' Ted suddenly barked, 'Get off that girl, right now!'

Marlin whirled around in horror; thankfully, he realized that the boy Ted had shouted at had simply jumped onto a small girl for a piggyback ride."

SOMEBODY around her has a dirty mind! Bad Angel! (bursts out laughing) That line made me double take, it really did.

aww I love it the way you started it its great

keep up the good work

when I again the Finding Nemo characters as humans I always picture Nemo having one of his legs on a brace of something like that due to that as a fish he needs his fin for swimming and as a human his legs for moving...but its your story so its up to you

cant wait to read more :D

Oops, I didn't realize you'd updated before I replied to you review. Oh wells, take my reply as incentive to update more than once a year...or to never stop updating, like you have with certain other stories (glare)

ANYWAYS!

Very clever way to start the story! I thought the bedtime story was the best of the deleted scenes, but I can see why it was changed. The beginning that ended up in the film was far more dramatic and heartrending.

“Well…I guess…the psychologist did say that I should tell you when you started asking….okay, Nemo. Come here, and I’ll tell you.”

Marlin has a psychologist? Poor guy and his emotional baggage.

You've captured character voices very well here without stealing dialog from the film, which isn't always easy to do. I eagerly anticipate all further updates. You know, if you finish this story you'll be the first on the site to complete a Finding Nemo AU. Seriously.

It's funny you mentioned names, because me and my little brother started a humanized Pixar story, and the names we chose were MarlinMartin, DoryDorothy (she's called "Dory" for short, though), and NemoNathan. While that wasn't incredibly relevant, I thought I should share it.

Oh yes, and PARACANTHURUS HEPATATUS FTW indeed! (I'm learning! I knew that was the scientific name for a regal blue tang when I saw it. Praise me and my random, useless learnings!)

Aw, is this the story you had a year or 2 before? Nice to see it back, if it is!
