This was a really interesting story to read. I enjoyed the play of emotions in it. I think you captured what life was like in that time period very well. Kudos!

Awww... This story is so sweet... Although I really did hate poor Pip's dad. I feel like he truly deserved being hung after everything that he did to Pip.

great story! thanks for sharing!
Naomi chapter 6 . 8/29/2011
omg... I love this so much! So simple, but so much in-between the lines. 3 :3

I don't if it it was intentional or not, but I love how Pip develops. In the beginning he just focuses on the motions of surviving, but as he matures, his viewpoint expands; he starts showing more of what he sees, life beyond survival. ;A; so good!

I also like the sense of time, there's nothing too too specific about time. We roughly know that his story is told within three years but like living that kind of life, time blends and slows. It's more about the weather, annual, gradual change. It's just about living...

And when Pip finally says the John's name? 3333 (but, lol, how would he even know?)

(Also, this is more of what you as a writer do, but I love how you put a time stamp for when you've posted/updated. I know fictionpress does it, but it's not quite the same.)

Aww, this was sweet! I loved it! Pip and John aren't exactly cute, but they work and I love both of them. I do hate Pip's father, how can you sell your son? Is he like a slave or something? Gosh, his dad's a jerk anyways. :)

What a beautiful story. I like the fact that you took a simple concept but turned it into something more. The writing and style of the story was excellent - simple yet moving. You can really "feel" their emotions.

aw, made me cry!
SerialXLain chapter 6 . 10/6/2010
D'aw. How sweet. I liked the "Shep waits for you" line. That was cute too.

The end was also nice. Reminded me of my own boifran and his scratchy beard. Durp.

You deserve a better review than this, but...I'm afraid I'm not delivering that. .-.

Lovely work as always, dear. Hope to read more from you soon. :)

Beautiful; I love it :)
R-Shindo chapter 6 . 10/3/2010
A good ending for a good story. This is great work that I've seen you do. Now get to STEPBROTHERS before I unleash the fans to attack you!

I'm seriously in love with this time period all of the sudden, I've been writing in the medieval era / pre classical period for a while now. I found it incredibly interesting to read and picture things in this time. That's where Pip and John have been this whole time.

It was a fun ride and hopefully you write more in this style (that I'll interpret as the medievalish times).

Cheers!

I like it -. I feel like you ended the story and, though the characters are beloved at this point, I don't expect any more of them. Pip's acceptance of the situation as it was and had been made me smile; he's an excellent example of a good human being, and you showed the stages of his maturity in believable steps.

Thank you for always updating regularly! It allowed me to stay in the story, even when there wasn't more to read.
