| DesertRoseFallen 2008-07-16 ch 21, | abuseHi! I really liked your story. I hope you continu it. I want to find out more about the relationship between Shay and Carmine! Well done! |
| complicationsG 2008-04-10 ch 21, | abuseUgh! I love this so much. Carmine feels so real, he really messes Shay around but I still love him. This is just such a lovely story. |
| Potatoe1988 2008-02-15 ch 3, | abuseWow, that's an incredibly weird feeling. I live in Brisbane, and didn't think much of it when I saw 'Rocklea', but just now realising that you were in fact referring to the Rocklea near me is... a weird feeling. I go to the markets there, and my mum works in Ipswich. It's all well and good for people who live in LA or something and are used to seeing places near them everywhere all the time... but what an odd feeling indeed. |
| sicca-chan 2008-02-09 ch 21, | abuseI totally love your story. It's so hard to find good stories about inmates relationship. xD |
| Amindaya 2007-06-14 ch 21, | abuseI loved this story. Very real. |
| Pundit 2007-06-13 ch 21, | abuseI absolutely LOVE this. Firstly, the storyline itself is unusual-- prison mates meeting on the outside isn't something you come across everyday. I also love how you expressed Carmine's emotional hang-ups and Shay's insecurities in such a realistic, almost tangible way. You incorporated a lot of complex issues into this piece but avoided treding into angst territory. By far Shay was the most sympathetic character in the story, but you managed to make the reader feel for him without necessarily pitying him. Moreover you balanced Carmine's insensitivity regarding Shay with his emotional hang ups from prison. So the reader feels for both characters without despising them for the pain they inflicted on eachother. That takes skill, usually I just end up hating BOTH characters. You balanced it perfectly. Your characters were multi-faceted and REAL. In short, this was ** awesome. |
| random-nerd15 2007-06-11 ch 21, | abusei have seriously fallen in love with this story. it's so original and un-cliche and i just love it so much. i can't even start to explain...but yeah >. |
| nonaccount 2007-06-04 ch 1, | abuseI adore this story. Shamefully, I never reviewed before, but I wasn't reviewing anything then - it wasn't you, it was me. :) Roaches (oh, I can't believe I was able to type that) are the most disgusting thing on the planet, so even tough I was totally grossed out by reading the first couple sentences I was really intrigued too and it drew me right in. I love Shay and Carmine they are so sweet together, not right away of course - at least not on Carmine's part, but eventually and that makes the sweetness even sweeter. |
| paputsza 2007-05-09 ch 4, | abuselol, i believe him when he hasn't had sex in a year. My two and only fixations are yaoi, which involves absolutely no "woohoo" and i'm pretty sure that all i have, and anarchy, which is the byproduct of no sex. I'm feel like shooting my standards dead. Or somebody, it varies cuz i haven't consumated any love recently... i wanna kill/f*ck somebody. Not both, not one then the next, I'd like to just pick one. |
| paputsza 2007-05-09 ch 2, | abusegod that woman's old . Frickin 40, that's like a rotting corpse breathing. >p |
| paputsza 2007-04-29 ch 1, | abuseevery once in a while foolish me decides to veer off before i read an author's entire selection. Never again. -.- I've never been so happy to hear of a foot smeared with coc~a~roach. i think this story's going to definitely get a reaction from me, especially considering my intense insectophobia. |
| SarryMatts 2007-01-15 ch 21, | abuseFantastic story as usual, I enjoyed reading from Carmine's point of view and watching him finjally get round to seeing what the rest of us did. Once again Jackie is a ** but that's what we love him for. Looking forward to more ~Sarry |
| afk 2007-01-11 ch 21, | abuseaw how cuyte of shay! and waht an ** of jackie..at leats shay is a real man :p |
| L. A. Solvang 2007-01-11 ch 21, | abuseN'aw... I liked this story for the same reason I like so many of your other works. It's a real life story that tell of people who are normal, meaning that have their obvious flaws and of course their strong sides. That level of "normal" is what I utterly adore, along with the tugging in the relationship between Shay and Carmine. I think they needed something to get better, and sadly for them it meant that Carmine cheated with Jackie. Say what you want about the guy, but he sure as heck unites the most unlikely people together. :D I hope to see more of these two, at least that we're updating on how they're going on through the eyes of someone else. Really great work, I'm amazing you have the time to write (and update) as fast as you do without losing quality. So yay! |
| 1more_sickpuppy 2007-01-11 ch 21, anon. | abuseMan, was I worried when Jackie came over! But Shay has improved a lot and Carmine too, so now they can live happily ever after and have sex with either guy on top! Thank you for this story. It's just the right side of difficult, the characters full of different sides, good and bad, and it stands on its own legs in the Brisbane-verse. The setting and characters are foreign to me, but still I can identify a lot of the time because we're all just human... *Now to wonder what comes next* :) |
