 Mirrorlily 2008-08-01 . chapter 3 Please write more. |
 Ninja Goose in a Tutu 2008-06-27 . chapter 1I'm in love with you, I won't deny it. Well, mostly it's your imagination, and all the stories that come out of it. I've been stalking your stories for a while now, but didn't want to review without an account.
But anyway! Your stories are rediculously sexilicious and addicting, and I truly hope you continue this one. The intrigue, the hints at reincarnation (always an awesome subject), the sexual tension! The characters are a real pleasure, and I hope to see more.
In the mean time, prickly Kisten has my full attention. :) |
 layne 2008-04-22 . chapter 3 wish you would update, i love the way you write |
 TRSNG 2008-03-11 . chapter 3What luck! I was craving some serious vampire love, and here I stumble on your story! You do the regal-lusty-vampire very well (emphasis on the lusty!). Really vivid buddy. Your mind reading isn't even close to tedious (in fact it's a lovely high-point), which it unfortunately tends to be in some stories.
It's looking like a super tale but I can see that you're only just warming up. Please take this as the gentle encouragement it is when I say - don't let this to run cold. |
 JtheChosen1 2008-03-02 . chapter 3O WOW! I luv this story, the humor is absolutely hilarious! i hope that you re-continue this story eventually! |
 Snyffles 2008-01-26 . chapter 3Okay, so admittedly I'm a wee bit late on the whole "reading-it-the-first-chance-I-get" thing, but you know how life is, I'm sure. Shit happens, bites ya in the ass, and rips you down to the ground to pretty much eviscerate you by means of both tooth and claw. And then brutally ass-rape you. All the same, however... I'm still in love with this story. I'm still head over heels for Julian and his entire character, and Cin... Well, Cin... is... adorable, period, end of story. Those two mesh SO well together! X3
Not to mention you've reminded me of the very reasons as to why I adore vampires in the first place. Just... wow. Mind-blowing. From the writing quality to the plot to the depth of the knowledge applied to the characters to the emotions/images and how they're portrayed... the whole lot of it has left me virtually speechless. (Note the 'virtually.' Otherwise I think we both know I wouldn't be rambling like the hapless idiot I am. XD)
I cannot recall for the life of me the last time I've gone so fangirly over a piece of unpublished writing. Seriously. And just so you know... it's all your fault. Not to mention all the thought that was put into this and the depth and all that makes me look at my own writing and just grimace. XD -snerks and sighs-
Anyways, before I ramble any longer, just wanted to say this is a fantastic story you've got going here, and I'm dying to read more. So please, PLEASE, for the sake of my sanity... write more. It is SO worth it. XD
Waiting with bated breaths,
- Sniff. |
 Sekre 2008-01-19 . chapter 3Sweet story :) |
 Wittyilynamed 2008-01-18 . chapter 3Oh. My. Gosh. (You warrant a god, but my mom hates when I do that. xDD)
I love it! A story with actually DEPTH. I was astounded. The concept, not so original (Nothing wrong with that though! ^_^). The writing...Absolutely superb! Your style is fluid and pretty easy to follow. You stay on course and entertain, and you have me begging for more! Your characters have personality and I can relate to them, which me being female, considerably younger, and not gay (And in some instances, human) is a huge feat.
The only thing that confuses me sometimes is when we're hearing Cin's thoughts. Sometimes I can't tell whoose thinking what. Spelling and grammar are fine so far, if anything is there, they are small mistakes.
I haven't reviewed a story in so long, because none of them were worth the time. The only thing I would worry about is your plot becoming flat and used. Not that I'm saying its headed that way, its just sometimes superb writers don't really go anywhere special. Anyway, I'm hoping you will wipe the floor with me and then dust your hands and I will be a clapping blob on the floor.
Wishing the best of luck, and waiting eagerly for the next installment,
Wit.
(Oh, I do hope my bluntness isn't offensive. And if it is...Sorry?) |
 Snyffles 2007-12-14 . chapter 1Okay, I'm going to admit this now: I haven't read the whole chapter yet. I've read a bit of this chapter and then a bit of the next for some reason currently beyond my grasps of logic, but I have got to wonder why you don't have more goddamn reviews for this sucker. I really, really do. Because for the limited amount that I've read... If you'll excuse my "french"... Jesus fucking murphy christ almighty!! Just... FUCK!
This. Is. AMAZING. Wouldn't be too much of an exaggeration to say "delicious", actually, because honestly that's the first word that comes to mind when I think of a word that I could use to describe this. Delicious. It's a feast for the brain, for the mind's eye, and just... Well, really, the vampires get their own points. -admitted vamp-addict-
The way that this has been written - first person, and very... what's the word... intimately, I suppose, for lack of a better term - is part of the very thing that is making me go quite ballistic right now. It gives you such a crystal-clear image of the character in your mind to work with, and makes visualizing the whole thing that much more vibrant and personal and intense. And Julian is just... amazing, besides. That little - or maybe not so little, ha ha - bit where he was ranting about the humans, the conversation with Felix... all very, very worthy of adoration. I think it's pretty safe to say I had a very large and very amused grin on my face throughout the entirety of that chunk.
Too bad Julian doesn't want servants, eh? I'd be on hands and knees in a bow in the blink of an eye for him. X'D
Were it not for the pesky thing known as work, I would be up reading the rest of this, but alas... -sighs- I'm doing so the first friggin' chance I get, though. This and 'Kegs and Black Cherries', because that's another one that I've glanced at and immediately adored.
Gotta say, I am so thankful that you posted these. I really, really am. You've got loads of talent and I'm horrendously excited to read some more from you.
Haha, if I wanted to be a creeper I could even say: "That was the best lay my brain's had in months." Haha, catch ya later! XD |
 endesaut 2007-11-14 . chapter 1 I keep convincing myself that this will be updated after I get out of class, or I finish cleaning my apartment, or after I finish painting. It's gotten me to be pretty productive but HOW MUCH LONGER CAN I KEEP UP THE LIES? My life is falling apart. |
 endesaut 2007-11-11 . chapter 3 BIG TIME FUN. |
 ArtificiallySw8 2007-11-08 . chapter 3hey,
so sorry for the late review. had exams, and then just found some time to read =). and yes i noticed the change in title, only cus when it said in my inbox 'chapter 3 of Old Night, New Hell'.. i thought it was an old story that i had forgotten about. and then i clicked on it, and it had the summary of this story.. wow lots of confusion.. and then yea i realised u changed the title.
anywho, im glad i read it. found it really amusing. actually, the beginning was not. the bit where he was torturing michele (was it?) for five days. that was mean, but i guess it fits with his character. but that was still mean, and horirble to read, but thats cus im not totally into the torture stuff. AND u kept describing about opening the wounds and yuck.
ok BESIDES that...
aww i thought, again, the cin and vampire interactions were soo cute. aww, it was such a contrast to the rest of the story. and yea, they're going on a date!! hopefully in the next chapter yea? aww can't wait for you to update this!
love love u(r story)
- silently.waiting.foh.u :) |
 Midnights Scream 2007-11-06 . chapter 3*blushes* thanks, but I really need to edit that stroy. Poor little story barely had any plot, but people liked it so I'll have to fix it up one of these day and yeah I understand the having trouble with finishing stories. It takes me a long time to do that. :) I liked this chapter a lot though. The dream made me grin, because I'm a pervert, but that's okay. The club chapter should be VERY INTERESTING! I can't wait. I always get so excited about your stories and they make me really happy so keep it up!! |
 nonaccount 2007-11-05 . chapter 3Of course I found you! Wherever would I get my fix of detailed, almost, but not quite sex if not from you? Everyone knows theapathycrusade is THE place to read . . . ahem, that kind of thing. Uh, now I sound like a desperate slut trolling through the FP annals for slashy M-rated goodness. Oh look "annals" and "anal" hehe. ANYWAY, I've got to admit, I really wasn't too sure about this story so far, but I thought, 'hey theapathycrusade is a great writer, so this has got to be excellent,' not that I didn't like this at first, 'cause I did, but I just wasn't fully won over and now I am!
So I guess you've actually read Paradise Lost and liked it? I've read it, but I found it alternately torturous and interesting maybe if I read it again I would not only know that Milton is a genius, but appreciate it too. Yeah, I don't see that happening anytime soon. Personally, if I'm going to read religious poetry I prefer Blake 'cause I like my religous poetry like I like my men - crazy and hard to understand, but accompanied by disturbingly beautiful pictures. ;) |
 XO'MagickMoon'OX 2007-11-05 . chapter 3Ehem. Excuse me while I go, uh, gather myself again...
*elevator music plays*
*quickly replaced by t.A.T.u*
OKAY! Dude. Like, dude... dudedudedudedude... *falls over* The beginning of this chapter... uhm... is beyond words. It just... guh... vampire yaoi... mm-mm. Possibly even better than those amazingly gooey chocolate-chip cookies. Like... like... oh! look! something for me to talk about!
"There is something. Something that surpasses even the lust. A deja-vu complex that has been haunting me, racking my mind with questions…I /know/ that face. I have seen it /somewhere/ before…
But I’ll be damned if I can remember where."
MORE HINTS. You have to de-mystify Cin soon xD; The suspense is killing me! Like, WHAT is up with him and his weird deja-vu episodes? Huh? Huhhuhhuh? *pokes you* Hahah, well, I'll be a good little reader and wait for you to reveal it at your leisure. But it is peaking my interest. VERY much so. xD
Oh, and I loved this line: "They call them a love affair with furniture, these French designs." I'm having Interview With A Vampire flashbacks... xD I just love Julian's character so much. The way he thinks, talks, acts... He has that dark, gorgeous, aristocratic, holier-than-thou persona, like Lestat (*HEART*) and I... love it. LOVE LOVE LOVE. God, amazing characters make me crazy. xD; And that scene in the beginning... firstly, the PoV switch was neat (I love switching narrators) and secondly... it was just.. uh...
Oh God, the words have left me again.
COME BACK, WORDS!
PAIN! There we go, there's a word. Pain, and pleasure. Okay, got it, my thoughts are back. xD; I loved the incredibly hazy line between pain and pleasure throughout the scene, how it started with pleasure, leapt into pain when Julian bit Cin, and then melded into this pain-pleasure thing that was just.. guh...
Okay, words gone again. I think you get my point. xD
MOVING ON. (No matter how badly I want to go back and rant about that scene some more...) MICHELE. Poor Michele. T__T At first, I couldn't understand why Julian was torturing him, and then I remembered, HE FREAKING STRANGLED CIN, and then I was like, "Ohh, right..." But man, talk about harsh. Vindictive vampires ftw! But that poor, poor, poor boy... I almost wish I could go rescue him from Julian. But I don't know what I'd do with a brainwashed vampire slave. xD The description of his torture was...uh... pretty awesome, though. With the "arc of red spray" drying on the bathroom mirror, "elbows scraped into ribbons," the shower cubicle "clouded by fog and blood"... it's like, straight out of some gory horror movie, EXCEPT much more elegantly and artfully done. It just... hahah, screams "HOT VAMPIRE FICTION." You are a god.
But jeez, Michele...
Oh well. He had it coming. OhHOHO! But wait! The whole thing about the vulnerability of the child mind?
"He’s psychologically damaged to such a degree, it will be extremely trying to ‘fix’ him. At least, to make him passably independent. They must have taken him when he was quite young.
Often times, I don’t think people realize how thoroughly formative the childhood years are.
Humans might not. Vampires do."
Very, very true. It's like those incidences, with the child isolation, and all. Hahah, I took sociology last year (VERY interesting stuff; I'm definitely taking another few classes on it when I get to college), but we learned about children and socialization. Childhoods are what MAKE a person. And it's really scary to think about what could happen if you socialize a child in a...well, 'bad' way, I guess you could say. You know, like stealing them away from their family and turning them into a vampire slave.
Ahem. But yeah, I reiterate: POOR MICHELE. *hugs him* As pathetic as he is.. it's not his faauult... *sniff*
Hahah, and I loved the segue (or lack thereof) from Julian thinking about the vampire scum to Cin's arrival.
"Imagine. Or don’t.
It’s disturbing.
I don’t expect the doorbell to ring."
Very nice. x3
And these thoughts Cin has, about the vampires? JULIAN HAS BEEN CAUGHT. xD Almost. Kind of. I loved Julian's reaction, "I should not have orchestrated the dream.
It was…hmm…foolish."
Hahah, I love the way he hesitates before 'foolish.' Like, me? Foolish? Nah. Okay, well, maybe a little. I really love his character.
And who are these "others," hmm? *raises eyebrow*
Ahhahah, oh man, but Cin is so wonderful... Now I don't feel exaggerate-y at ALL saying that he's TOTALLY HOT for Julian. And it's not just my inner yaoi fangirl this time xD He is definitely, completely, ONE HUNDRED PERCENT hott (double-T!) for Julian. And his awkwardness and fumbling is adorable. He's so... wonderfully human. A nice contrast to Julian.
They're so adorable.
And that moment they had at the end, with Julian being sarcastic and Cin being all OMGNOYOUDIDN'T was really, really cute. I can't wait to see what joys their relationship brings. And the way they keep asking each other about women, wives, girlfriends, WHATEVER... that was adorable too. Skirting the issue. Very nice. :)
Okay, enough adorableness. Talk about overusing a word. I need to stop doing that.
But, HAHAH JULIAN YOU HAVE A DATE! *dances* I really, really can't wait to see what comes of this. WILL WE GET TO MEET FELIX? GASP! I THINK WE WILL! WHEE! *DANCES*
Ah, okay, my battery's about to die! And I think I've run out of things to say! *BLOWS KISS*
MORE SOON PLEASE! x3 |
