Chapter 5 of "Love and Duty Come in Chains" now posted on Fanfiction.net ^^.

Each section is really good, terse yet descriptive . But for some reason, when I take them together, it doesn't really do it for me ....Hmm, I think it might be because there's a very similar feel/mood/voice in each section, so it feels a little repetitive when I read them all together? Sorry if that made no sense .... Nice "continuation" feel with the last line!

I like how it's not DRASTIC MAJOR CHARACTER CHANGE PER SECTION!!! I guess, on a very crazy and wispy level, it feels like it's great that each section has a similar style and mood, but that maybe if each section had a different....colour, then it would show a slight progression/shift per section that might make it feel less repetitive? ....... Gaah, I suck at expressing this! Really, it's good....maybe I'll get it better upon re-reading . Quote:

Well, I mean, I get what you're saying. But I wasn't really trying to do anything related to poetry writing, so I don't really see how that was a problem for the piece. =O I wasn't thinking of it in terms of colors and spices, or in sentence length and the like. I was in a flow and wrote as I went along. Quote:

So, since it is mentioned here, I obviously like this a lot. And it made me smile to think of how completely Negi has overturned her life since taking over her class . Also, any Chachamaru/Chisame plot bunnies should be encouraged. |

hmm I'm just waiting for a pactio that allows people to Gattai!! just for the epic crack that would result.
Chisame just needs more fanfiction in general, it's just more difficult writing a cynical realist in context specially when she didn't start developing until halfway through the series. She's my favorite as well but don't think she even scratched the top 10 in popularity polls. chachamaru could use more focus but she's moderately popular so gets included a decent amount already.

*snickers* Well Madoka, even if you manage to catch her, I don't think Setsuna will be altogether comfortable with Misa messing around with her memories. It probably won't take much to convince her to never tell a soul though. This was cute. And hilarious. Shame they're getting a divorce. |

More development on Kyo and how the lead up to the marriage agreement. And the Wallward guards who… hmm… I really am having a bit lot of trouble with them (as you already know!) I somehow find it dubious that the Wallwards, the supposed experts with all the magical text are so ignorant of Pactio rules (and importance of pactio partners) and, well, demons and how to fight them. Sorry about ragging on them, I guess it really rankled me that the Wallward matriarch had the gall to be uppity about the Kyoto Magical Association's designated security when they themselves are fail in terms of fighting! It's really good you have people like Asuna and Eva to knock sense to Setsuna and Konoka but I really wish they'd get the message STAT or else I'll find a way to reach into their world and shake sense into 'em myself! And the Nodoka cameo you spoke of! Awesome! Plus, I laughed at Mana's subscription *grin*. Quote:
CHUI! I love Chisame! And I love how you captured her cranky voice and her journey through her denials and admissions and how the story goes full circle. Quote:
Oh! Oh! *flaily hands* Is this what I think it means??? And Asuna in Ostia and still choosing to return! (Just out of curiosity, is there a reason why Negi wasn't placed as head of Ostia?) and… still with the flailing because OMG! You killed her and now Chisame has survivor's guilt and Setsuna's guilt for not being there and choosing the sword and… OMG, how did/is Asuna reacting to one of her older friends dying? Sooo many questions!
