Mad Season

Warnings: Shonen ai, language, angst (or so I've been told... is it bad that my -happy- pieces are considered angst? O_o;;)
Type: Romance/songfic

	Tamahome: Hmm... *somebody* has been watching OVA1! Seriously, this was a rather interesting way of handling this particular story, which I have seen numerous times. FY yaoi seems to revolve around three couples, after all. I quite like the song and the way it's been interworked into the situation. I'm glad that nothing was rushed. That seems to be a failing with yaoi writers - they rush things. People don't just declare love and jump into bed - especially not people who have been burnt by romance before. I also liked the way the speech pattern was kept up through both the spoken and the reflective part of the story. This made following the story a lot easier and gave a lot of meaning to the entire thing. All in all, a very gentle, reflective story which I sincerely enjoyed.
	Chiriko: *sighs* I see the word songfic.... stop me from flinching. Anyway, let's start with formatting: looks great, especially for a songfic. Remember, appearence can make of break a fic! I believe Tamahome has some rather firm.... essays on the subject. Just toss him a touch of O-ka-ne and he might spill! Onto the fic itself. All in all, I really don't have much to say. It captures Tas' voice wonderfully, but other then that, it's a standard Chichiri/Tasuki shonen ai fic. Can't someone write me a fic with a new premise? Even the good fics are dimmed in the sea of the mundane.
	Mitsukake: Erm...I'm afraid I don't have much to say about this one. Yes, it does capture Tasuki's voice rather well, in all it's R-rated glory. But there's just so little between the song lyrics, so little fic here...There's not much to review. Gomen. *bows*
	Hotohori: It's a very rare instances that I find songfics that I like. Usually, there's not enough of a fic between the verses of the song. Most that I run across, would fall apart if you took the song out of it. *sighs* That's the way I felt about this fic. Don't get me wrong, I love the ~song~, but with the fic, it seemed oddly out of synch. 2 kasas
