Leopard without its spots 2009-10-28 . chapter 9
I have no idea how to compliment you, seriousy! I can't put my feelings into words.

How do you write all this? you have such great imagination.

I love this story. The bond between the 'brothers' is really great. Lee is a very confusing person even when you write from his point of view I still can't seem to figure him out, he is a mystery which, in a way, I hope doesn't get solved because it makes him interesting and a little unhinged.

I really liked the way you wrote the scene when Lee sees the dead horse and the rider, it almost made me imagine the fourhorsemen of the apocalypse, except three were missing.

I absolutely ENVY the description you gave of the cold seeping into Lee, it felt real.

The kisses they share are so sweet and touching and I am glad you are letting them figure their feelings out for each other rather than having them jump each other with raging hormones and lust, like I have read in most stories on this site.

Are you thinking of publishing this story, because I would so totally buy the book.

Keep to your 'promise' and update the next chapter soon. You ROCK!! (I would so bake you chocolate chip cookies but I am afraid I will end up eating them all, but I suppose its the thought that counts XD )

Seeing this updated just completely made my day and knowing that the next one will be seen in a week probably just made my entire week!

Lee is so painfully tragic he makes me ache a little. And I do like to see things from his POV every once in a while (even if he is a little skewed).

When I read this I seriously feel like it could be a movie. I would watch in a heart beat for sure!

Shitstix, I ** kid you not, I couldn't let my eyes blink reading your story. I broke out the moisturizing eye drops just so I would blink LESS.

** GENIUS!! Seriously, turn this ** into a book.

Your writing style is AMAZING! And I'm very, very, very picky about things I read. If it doesn't catch my attention in the first three sentences, I ditch it quick.

But your story... Christ on a cracker, is absolutely incredible!
I loved your description of the fey. Totally different from those cute little sparkley pictures you see anywhere else.

Ironically my favorite color is purple, so I was pretty torn between loving or hating the purple of the Dead Place. But it was great nonetheless!

Keep going!

Wo all caught up. The change of pace in Lee was nice to see, too bad it only takes him being half dead to make him more..human. But I don't think it's unexpected that Harlem would pick now to make his first move because the night before had to have made Lee even more irresistible to him.

This story is amazing. The beginning is so intriguing because you don't know the backstory of everything that's going on and you want to find out, and now that pieces are coming together, it's not predictable at all and I just want to know what's going to happen to them! I love everything about this story, and the characters rule.

Sorry this review is so late, I've had problems with the internet for a while and have only just managed to get back on.

So without further ado, onto my thoughts. Firstly, the atmosphere in this chapter is absolutely gorgeous. There's a languid feel to it all, a dort of film of sleep that helps you to feel the characters exhaustion and pain. It's soft at points which reflects the affection, which was wonderfully poignant but at the same time I notice there's always a tense edge which is incredibly clever on your part, you little genius you. The razor sharp edge keeps us on our toes, mirroring the vigilence of Lee and Harlem.

Secondly, the thing that I loved most about this chapter overall was Lee. He had this beautiful vulnerability about him which we haven't seen from him before and it was lovely to read, a refreshing change that he's reliant on Harlem rather than the other way around. The two of them togehter, as seemingly one person are always wonderful but there's something about Lee's character that I find fascinating. I think that Harlem sums it all up when he talks about Lee easing his barriers and I'd like to see more of that, more of Lee letting his guard down as well as the somewhat irritable repurcussions. More of the resulting dynamic between Lee and Harlem.

Thirdly, that kiss, however unexpected, was perfect. I see dozens of romance stories on fictionpress that are so cliche, so overdone and/or awkward. You are one of the few writers that give me hope, in that you write such natural, well thought out characters as opposed to the contrived mary-sues that I see so often and their interactions feel like coming home. Harlem and Lee are just so perfectly intertwined, unwittingly bound to eachother in such a heartbreaking way and it shows and makes a scene that in anyone else's words would perhaps feel awkward, and makes it a masterpiece that flows well, easing us out of our initial shock with continuous action but leaving us reeling for more. This scene was like a shock to the system, an adrenaline rush in the best of ways and I think it broke some ground because I'll definitely be more aware of them now, just as they are of eachother. With every chapter I feel like you're bringing us the reader closer and closer to the characters and that's both frightening and exhilirating.

Finally then, I want to say thankyou very much for the dedication, it truly does mean a lot. In all honesty though I think that it would be dreadful for me not to give you as much feedback as possible because how can you ever hope to get better or at least feel like you have a voice if nobody ever gives you anything to work with. You're an amazingly talented writer who creates some of the most intensely human characters I have ever read and it's a pleasure to be able to read your work and have some kind of input about it and how it makes me feel.

Much love,

Part of me just wants to rush through the remaining chapters to find out what happens next, but I don't know how often you update this story and don't want to leave myself high and dry for months. But it's so good!
