Reviews for A Real Boy
A Watcher chapter 1 . 7/10/2014
Thank you so very, very much for writing this. To paraphrase someone I once read, this is like fine chocolate, bittersweet. This is meaningful to a lot of people. I don't think that I speak just for myself when I say this has given me a little hope that I'll be happy despite being the self-contradictory thing that I am. Thanks. Wish ya all the best.

Poignant and beautiful writing. It feels real, from beginning to the end. Something very hard to achieve. Thank you for this little pearl of a piece, I enjoyed it immensely. /cheers, Java

I really enjoyed reading this. :) I'm adding it to my archive and favorites list.
Omok chapter 1 . 5/12/2009
I'm shocked. i swear I read this before.

I guess I just never reviewed eh?

but don't worry; I didn't before it's probably 'cause I was too sleepy or tired. Or I was feeling...awe.

Which, by the way, is what I'm feeling right now. I'm rather curious; so your biological gender is male? (obviously; you don't have to answer nor take this in to consideration.)

But wow. If i were the narrator; I'd never be able to live with myself. I wouldn't know what to do. I wouldn't know what to say. Eveyrthing to me would be a big 'I don't know.' - so the point is; I'm glad the narrator is better than I. She can do better; and she did. I'd fail face flat on the floor.

Thanks for writing.

This is very moving...it reminds me a bit of my relationship with my best friend. Only without the fucking. I'm definitely the man in our relationship, and we wouldn't have it any other way :)

Anyway this is fantastically written.
Kneecap chapter 1 . 8/20/2008
I actually felt like I could connect with you a bit. 'Cause I kinda have that sort of relationship with someone, but it's in a more platonic sense.

It meant a lot to me to read this, and I think it meant a lot to Emma too :D. I...this was really excellent.

Sweet. Very sweet. I loved it .

This was simply amazing. You captured simple emotion and made it remarkable, though perhaps more astonishing is how you took a situation, a situation not everyone can relate to, and made it so completely real. Your talent is incredible. Nice work.
Siriusly James chapter 1 . 10/6/2005
I envy Meg that she has a boy like you - you're what I'm looking for, and this is so sad for me to read because I know fucking exactly how it feels - even the part about finally feeling like a real boy and yet knowing it's not real. Sometimes I, too, sink into that hole where I just wish I was one thing or another, yet I know that I can't and that I'll just have to accept myself as I am...This is well written, too, with nicely chosen words, and I like the way it's organised and yet a bit confused...Short thing is: I like this!
Celeste Sword chapter 1 . 8/2/2005
That's really awesome. D At first I was confused but all the pieces fell together and fit snugly. An interesting insight to something i don't often think about. Well written, well done. )
Dartxni chapter 1 . 3/23/2005
As I read this, I kept thinking you might be one of my best friend's but then I'd notice you have a different writing style. He has a girlfriend named Megan and is transgendered and she is a lot more of a guy than he is, she's taller too...

Kind of funny those coincidences.
