cool! i don't know what you meant in your summary by "gender-neutral" though...if you meant we weren't supposed to know whether the narrator was a girl or boy, well...we do. since, you know, the beautiful demon was a guy.

Hey, this is really wow. I love the message this story is sending out. "Nothing is as it seems. Good isn't always beautiful, and evil isn't always ugly. Don't look at people with your eyes" is such a great moral to be sending out to people today. Bravo.

I saw you review a few of Reda's works so I decided to drop by and glance at some of yours. I really enjoy this story. It's simple and of course the theme has been worked with before, but it is still a very good story you wrote. *was amused at a couple of lines*

That's a profound idea. Very nice.

I take it you saw a guy whom inspired you to write the demon :/

This does seem as if it was taken out of a story, an excerpt or something. It could be really deep, really involving you know? Maybe you should think about starting your own thing with this, not just off your friend's story idea. I'd support it with my reviews (as powerful and impressionable as they are to people *sarcastic laugh*)!

Okay, in the first few paragraphs, the woman asks "Are you following me?" The old man replies "Doncha' know?" She should have said "why are you following me?" That's the only burn I can deliver. lol ^_^

Beautiful like poetry.

Hi, O Mighty Eloquent Author! I want to join the Mighty Pencil Club. It sounds cool.

I really like your description in the story. This story is just so very. And no, that was not a typo. :D

Haha, it's kind of late at night. And I write WEIRD reviews late at night. :p

Very intriguing. And totally true. I really must read this 'Hero'.

Hmm..I am a bit confused in the middle. I don't know who you were refering to when you said "he". But after reading the whole thing, I think I understand.

There's one thing I don't get though. What did the blue eye man do that made him a demon? And what did that homeless man do that made him an angel? Perhaps, the blue eye man was looking down on the homeless man?

Wow--I loved this! You had me quite jumpy at the beginning, and you did a great job of describing the old man in a repellant way--made it easy to imagine him. I like the incubus feel you gave to the 'hottie.'

There's just so much a person can take from this--fabulous work here! (And yay to Numinor29 for the inspiration!)

(Sorry it took so long to review; it was crazy over here.)

Wow, that's a really good message. :o It's so true, too. Hehe, wow, what I originally thought it was going to be about was so wrong. . . .

Anyways, this was a good story. :) It was kind of short, but that's okay. :P ;) You should write more stories like this. :) :P

This is cool. =) Me like.

I loved this. Really, I do. The message was so great, so important. Usually, beauty is always carries the taint of evil, and you portray this perfectly. It is the rare beauty who is kind. (I know that in my current series, I totally send the opposite message, which I wish I hadn't, but oh well. >_

deep :D nice message & well written =)

Wow. Casey... wow. Speechless. Beautiful. Wow. Adding to favorites.
