Date: 2009-05-31 11:41 pm (UTC)I don't know how much research you did for this fic, but it felt extremely well crafted, the whole seedy Yakuza underworld you created. The hints you kept dropping left me wanting more and more, although this story stands beautifully by itself.
There aren't enough fics like this in JE fandom. Thank you for writing a true gem.

Junno being equally stupid by cutting out on Ryo in the morning and omg the SEX and the fact that you could pretty much FEEL Ryo's confusion and want and need was just fantastic!
This was amazing and I am SO glad you wrote it. ♥

Date: 2009-06-01 12:53 am (UTC)I love this like I love Ohkura (and I think that says something because I seriously love that man, a lot.) and some more, because there's OHKURA *in* it, and it had me cracking up of all sorts because -- yeah. I don't know what's funny, but I laugh at odd things according to others and well, in this case it's not a bad thing because yeah, the sex was great. (I hope it still sounds unawkward at this point, haha)
Just...the BDSM was great and yeah, I'll be re-reading it now...*shuffles off*

XD
Though it is AU, you managed to write both Junno and Ryo so in-chara, it's awesome.
Special thanks for the puns (why so few?;_;) and.. well, just for writing and posting the whole fic <3
[I just needed to look where I knew your writing from - the Taguchi-falling-in-Love-fic, ne? Maaa, I'm slow tonight, but I can say it's because of your fic - and the time (half past 3)]

Date: 2009-06-01 01:35 am (UTC)I. Idek what to say to this but I wanted to leave some kind of comment because this fic, omg, this fic.
The last time I read an undercover-BDSM-type fic was years and years ago in a different fandom, and this beats that about 150x over, hands down. It's Ryo and Junno. What the hell. I am not even a big fan of Junno. Or, at least, I wasn't. Hel~lo, newfound Junno-love. *_*
The friend who linked this fic to me, she and I, we. We. Capslocked and flailed as we read the fic at the same time despite being continents and oceans apart (fanfic: bridging the transcontinental gap). And were generally "Jesus CHRIST." and "cantbreathe" and so on at each other.
I am up too late and am too braindead to leave a better comment. But this. You. Yes. ♥xinfinity^forever

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. ♥)

Date: 2009-06-01 02:35 am (UTC)While I don't read KAT-TUN fic pretty much ever, I like how you write Junno, and I also liked your Ryo characterization (which, believe me, is saying a lot XD). And mostly I'm just really happy to see long fic with an actual plot that still manages good characterization. And some very nice porn.
(Just one little note: Tsubasa's last name is Imai, so if they're all going by given names, he should be Tsubasa.)

Date: 2009-06-01 02:53 am (UTC)YOU.
YOU.
HOW MUCH CAN I PAY YOU TO WRITE FIC LIKE THIS FOREVER AND EVER AND EVER.
alksfaklfhalfkhakflshfk oh my god. I. The pairing and the premise was so weird that I couldn't help but click, and I admit I expected it to be completely horrible and stupid and ridiculously OOC, but I was so, so, so wrong. This is like the Susan Boyle of fic. XD This is so incredible. The writing and the characterization and just. God. EVERYTHING. It was amazing. WHY CAN'T WE HAVE MORE FIC LIKE THIS IN THIS FANDOM.
I loved Ryo's inner narrative so, so much. And his process from hating Junno's presence and feeling like he's been intruded upon, to being possessive and getting feelings for him felt so NATURAL, especially since you didn't go from total loathing to 'I-can't-live-without-you-we-are-kizuna~~~~~~~~~*~*~*' love in the blink of an eye. It was so... just. AUGH. GOOD. I don't know. I loved it.
Even the BDSM was perfect. I'm not big on heavy bondage and stuff like that, but I felt like it was just the right mixture of hardcore and not over the top. It was SO hot and I yelled numerous times when you stopped. XDDD I complained about you being a cocktease because lakshflaf that's just how caught up in it I was. GAH. I loved it. Jin is my favourite JE boy ever and I rarely read fic without him in it (and LIKE it), which just shows you how much I love this.
WRITE MORE. WE NEED MORE FIC LIKE THIS IN JE FANDOM.
*worships*

Date: 2009-06-01 02:56 am (UTC)I loved how you wrote Junno and Ryo. Junno because he isn't all sunshine and smiles and terrible jokes, because he is more than that and I appreciated how you incorporated that. Especially when you wrote about how he was when he was talking about his dead partner, my heart just kind of broke because that side of Junno I love. And Ryo, my god your Ryo. His voice was so him throughout the entire fic. I also loved how you included Shingo and Ohkura, you really made me see them and it was hot.
Thank you so much for writing and sharing this, it was wonderfully written and executed, and I'll probably need to read this again just so I can appreciate everything.

Date: 2009-06-01 07:34 am (UTC)i noe ryo and junno have their connection-point from a drama they did way back, but apart from tat, they appear to move in their own spheres, but u so totally make them work. ur junno, like in ur previous story, is beautiful, gorgeous gorgeous gorgeous, and very much in character - ppl love to focus on his dajare-appearance, but he is, which u have shown so well, so much more dimensionally complex than tat. in fact, ur junno is one of the best i've ever read, and this story has entirely blown my mind to bits!

Date: 2009-06-01 06:30 pm (UTC)I've read this kind of super hot brilliant bdsm smut fic in a couple of fandoms, but have never had the chance to read it in JE so far.
Thank you. The detail was astounding, the sex absolutely bafflingly marvellous and I *heart* your Junno so much. He's got character and he's hot and assertive when he wants to be and darn he's incredible. And thanks so much for the Nakamaru cameo. And Ohkura. Ohkura was *HOT* I hope to read more JE smut fic from you, because you do a fabulous job.
Thanks so much for sharing. I loved it.
(and you're getting my food!kink icon because my KAT-TUN icons just aren't smutty enough for your fic ;D)

Date: 2009-06-01 06:36 pm (UTC)This layout makes it really difficult to quote, but if I could this comment would be six inches long.
What I love in any piece of writing is when a writer gives me a realistic character with certain, defined personality traits - making it clear what this character would and wouldn't do - and then creates a story that changes that person, making it utterly believable that those traits have changed.
This part here:
Falling into the role is always an inner shift of some kind, but the exact nature of the shift changes, depending on the undercover assignment. This time… this time, it's something completely new. Because most of all, walking through the Ragaraja's door – duffel bag of fetish gear in hand – is a relief.
It's like inner bonds loosening and falling away. Ryo wants to touch Junno, and so he does – he puts his free hand to the small of Junno's back, flat against cotton and warm skin, just like that. When he slides his hand down into Junno's back pocket, Junno leans into the touch.
We see how Ryo has changed and we are happy for him. Relieved for him. I can imagine him walking through those doors into a place that should be repulsive and nerve-wracking and dangerous to him and yet knowing that it's the only place where he can truly have what he wants and needs at that moment.
I don't usually read kink fics, either, and I was impressed at the knowledge/research that you shared. I don't know anything about this stuff, but you presented it in a way that made it easy to visualize and yet not distasteful for those of us who don't swing that way. It was fun to read.
The parts that were humorous played well against the parts that were suspenseful. Usually I can't read a fic this long without my mind wandering and leaving and coming back to it, but I read this one straight though. Fantastic story telling.
Personally, I can't stand Taguchi. I hate his stupid smile and stupid jokes and I ignore anything with him in it. But ... damn you make him hot and beautiful.
I hate writing smut because I feel like I'm using the same words and phrases over and over, telling something that has been told so many times that the shine has worn thin. But your writing isn't like that at all - it's fluid and graceful and beautiful and I'm so happy that people recced this because otherwise I would have missed it.
Thank you for sharing it.

Date: 2009-06-02 04:45 am (UTC)If it were another Junno/Ryo fic, I probably wouldn't have bothered reading it (let alone think what the pairing would be like); I guess their personalities are at different extremes which makes it a bit hard to picture. It was the undercover gay bdsm club part that got me, though. But now that I think about, there could be potential for this rarepair.
Thank you for this :) These fics are seriously what the JE fandom lacks in. Looking forward to seeing more from you in the future.

Date: 2009-06-02 07:10 am (UTC)I love Junno. Junno was one of the first to get me interested in JE and even though I am obsessed with Arashi, I still love him and think he's horribly underrated and more nuanced than he lets on. I've always hated that he always seems to get the short shrift in fandom so you really have no idea just how much I think you're amazing. I seem to like Ryo better in fic too so.
I will love First Contact forever and ever and ever! ♥ (oh, and the length... I totally appreciate it!)
