Audie Scott 2008-05-06 ch 1,	abuseNo line did I read without a frown on my brow. Very... deep. As deep as man's heart. It's dark, and tragic, but I don't need to repeat the grim echo of the fragment. I've never been in love, but I'm sure the real feeling is very close to this.
Vixen of Vienna 2008-02-03 ch 14,	abuseO, an update! May I make some comments? Yes. Okay, good. "He’d grabbed me by the hand as I’d been walking back to my husband and I’s lodgings"--I do not belive such a construction is technically wrong, but why not say "my husband and my lodgings?" It is more expected, though, I will agree, repetitive. I am very sorry, but I am confused. If Jo is such a creepy guy, then how can Ilse love him for his mind and intimate activity in bed? I mean, she is suffering from masochistic tendencies or is incredibly shallow. Maybe it could be the whole Nazi Germany setting. That always creeps me out. Um, some elucidation behind the motives of your characters would be highly appreciated. And forgive me for having such a dense brain, but I do not get it. Your writing is fine. I think you are cutting back on modifyers, and I applaud you since fewer adverbs and adjectives means tighter writing. I am still trying to incorporate this idea into my own stuff. Conflict development seems more complex. That is good. At least I think it is good. You can always redeem a floundering plot with a good conflict. I am just rambling now. Sorry. It has been one of those days. I look forward to more. Ciao.
Kristen 2007-10-14 ch 7, anon.	abuseWhoa dang, incest! But it's rather nicely described, I really enjoy your work!
Vixen of Vienna 2007-09-29 ch 13,	abuseHey, you still working on this? excellente! revolutionary France and Renaissance Italy seem to be common trends lately. That is cool. I liked Vivien and Annette among your most recent updates. It was so sad, not that the others are not, but I do not know; I guess it is when a guy goes off to fight for a cause and leaves the girl behind that really gets me. Good writing though. About making this longer. Your current vignette style fits this piece. If you wish to embark on a new literary venture, then I suggest you take your fledgling story ideas with your said characters and apply it to something outside We Are a Romance. Make anew fic out of it. And was Mirandola really a blondie? I never knew that.
Pelegia 2007-09-22 ch 12, anon.	abuseI am not afraid to say that I have been hopelessly addicted to this series since I first saw it. You are an amazing author and I totally envy your creativity. I can't wait to read more of yours.
soojinyeh 2007-09-21 ch 1,	abuseThis is why I don't fall in love anymore. Even though it can be great it brings along too much ** with it. Love this.Read and review me please.
Lost in the Funhouse 2007-08-23 ch 1,	abuseI read all of these a few days ago, actually, so why I didn't review then is beyond me. I really liked this collection. It goes to show that not all love is returned, not all is deep, sincere, or between people from different families (sorry. My vague attempt at a joke.) I really liked the French Revolution one, but I personally thought it went a little fast at the end, although I liked the twist. My favorite character was Rafael. I have a very large soft-spot for him, perhaps its because your usage of flowery language is so excellent. I like how there is the common theme (besides love, I mean), of the ages, which are the ages that I like to read fluff-ish love about. So I will be looking for more (:
Vixen of Vienna 2007-08-15 ch 10,	abuseHm, been waiting for one of these. Nice and cute as always. I like how you portrayed the aristocratic classes. England, right? Good characterization, especially with the dialogue. I have also noticed that you confine yourself to Western Europe. Nothing wrong with that, but it would be interesting if you could do something with Austria or Switzerland or, if you are in the mood for some research, Poland or Russia.
S. Renee 2007-02-06 ch 9,	abuseOh! How cruel can he be? Isn't there some other pretty girl out there he can force to be his wife? Why Scarlet? Another great story. I liked it very much.
Vixen of Vienna 2007-02-06 ch 9,	abuseUgh. I mean for the lord. But I love Vince. Have a soft spot for artists. I also like Scarlet. She reminds me of a toned down version of the Scarlet from Gone with the Wind. Spunk with some duty mixed in. Nice.
S. Renee 2007-01-08 ch 7,	abuseOh my! Incest! lol. That's all I've got to say. One suggestion- I'd like it if you were to put the city/country and the year for each of these little stories. I'm always wondering where they all take place. Besides the more obvious France and Ireland ones, I'm never quite sure.
Vixen of Vienna 2007-01-08 ch 7,	abuseHey! You are back. Was wondering what happened. Hahahha. I love this one. Manius and Mania are old friends I am sure. (smiles) Controversial with the incest and all but still nice.
Immortal Mist 2006-12-22 ch 1,	abusewonderful reading- thanks for creating these stories! I loved them all.
S. Renee 2006-12-16 ch 6,	abuseDidn't like this one so much as the others. It was still good, of course, and well written. The characters were great, as was the setting. But it was less believable to me than all the other romances. Marius and Attica seem so very, very different and it seems like he barely even knows her. He regards her as a boy sometimes, even if it is out of fear he'll fall for her, and he seemed much more like her uncle than her sweetheart. But that's just me. It was still entertaining, even if I couldn't believe in the ending.
Vixen of Vienna 2006-12-15 ch 6,	abuseO, we have returned to classical times. Lovely. I also like slave-master stories. This had a lot of nice imagery even though it was very sad. Um, one little technicality, I do not know if you take Latin or have taken it in the past; but while the word for master is indeed dominus, you should say domine when it appears as an object of direct address. In Latin syntax, this is called the vocative case. Just thought I would mention that. Ignore me if you already know and chose not to incorporate it for some good reason about which I am not aware. I will be back when you write more.
