This is just... amazing. *___* I absolutely love love love the way you wrote Ryo and Junno and the dynamic you built up between them. I loved the background that went into the story and the way you built them both up as believable characters, and the fact that it is a cop AU. A believable cop AU. There are not enough of these in the world!

I just... really do not know what else to say. I would flail around like I did to a friend on IM when I was reading it, but it wouldn't amount to much more than starry eyes and lots of babbling and capslocking. XD;

Suffice it to say: YOU. ARE. AWESOME.

(Also, I don't think I ever commented because I suck at such things, but I read The Taguchi Method of Falling In Love awhile back and it's one of my all time favorite fics ever. Your writing is amazing. Please keep writing forever and ever. ♥)

I absolutely love love love the way you wrote Ryo and Junno and the dynamic you built up between them.

That's wonderful to hear. :-) The dynamics of the relationship between Ryo and Junno - the way the relationship develops and changes over time, the give and take of it, how it all works and how Ryo's and the reader's perception changes - was one of the main things I wanted to get just right.

I do think they could be amazing together, and I wanted to show just how and why. I'm very happy that this worked so well for you!

:-)) I'm very glad you like that story too - and I do hope to keep writing for quite a while, yes. *g*

Thank you very much for your wonderful feedback! It's great to hear you enjoyed the story so much. :-) (And hey, I'm good with flailing in capslock. *g*)
