You can still control it to a degree, or at least a degree to which anyone who thinks otherwise will just be reaching for straws. Take a look at the ending I wrote: Teana stays with Vice and rejects Subaru. Sure, some one could go "and then afterwards Teana realises her mistake and goes to be with Subaru instead!" but they would just be silly. It looks like Dezo will be more helpful than I am, so I'll just differ to him Well I'm gonna take a stab and guess... Signum? Did that Bright Punch have a befriending side effect?

[QUOTE=00-Raiser;3021207]Yeah, but those people would just be fanatical. It's one thing for the characters to "think they won't" and another for the author saying "they won't." But as it stands, you have several people who don't like SubaTea saying that they get SubaTea vibes, so I think that warrants further consideration.[/qoute]
You also need to take into consideration that DC meant for the ending to be open as it was; that it was open to interpretation regardless of what camp you were in. So why should she say that "they won't" just to satisfy the people who don't support SubaTea and still interpret the ending that way regardless? I'm not saying she shouldn't take the changes Dezo and others suggested into consideration, but she still has the final say over how the fic turns out.

Ahhh, but you all make such good points! Quote:

You pinned the point right on the head ...I don't mean to have Teana be "punished", but like you said, accepting the consequences of her indecisiveness and lack of confronting her own feelings. Quote:
I did want Teana with Subaru's family because I felt that Teana, with no family of her own, appeared to have sort of taken on Subaru's family as her own...and after basically resetting her life, I thought that she might need that love and support from close friends and family (and since "close friends" Subaru, Caro and Erio are all off-world, Fate has her own family, Vice is now ex-husband....I really could only think of Subaru's family as possible support system for Teana ) Quote:

I think it's fine the way it is, but I was merely making suggestions as to how she could better reach her goals. I suppose I misunderstood what those goals were

The idea is that in the end of the epilogue, as it was written, Teana doesn't end up with Vice or with Subaru within that one-shot. It was never specifically stated that the possibility that she would hook up with Subaru after was a sunk possibility. That's what the whole ending is based around; possibilities.

I'm working on editing and adding parts of this epilogue after all the great commentary, and I should have a final version posted soon .

Well, as good of a friend that Shari is, I can still picture a better support system with the Nakajimas than with Shari, since Teana's known the Nakajimas for a longer time, and there is more of a "I belong, I have a family" feel there . Quote:

I'm now seeing a comical misunderstanding of everybody involved who thinks that while Subaru was away and Teana was getting over her divorce, she hooked up with Ginga and they just haven't come out of the closet yet. Quote:

I am reading this on my phone, and it shifts the text so I can't see avatars on the side. Regardless,i can always tell who is talking by their"voice". I just wanted to say that you guys asl have a very distinguished voice that really stands out and screams your name. :3
I really like that.

Hm... come to think of it, some of my friends are able to pick out my posts on 4chan, so I guess I really do have a recognisable 'voice'

I admit, RB does have the unfair advantage of being my sounding board when I develop my ideas . So she kind of has insight into what I'm thinking when I write . But yes, the Dark Side is powerful and has me under its sway!
