One thing spoilt it for me, and that was the way you portrayed Duo. In most fics where Heero leaves Duo only to return, Duo is portrayed as a spineless wimp who runs back like a good little puppy without need of an explanation. He's always "still in love", as is Heero, odd how Heero seems to retain his dignity and Duo does not. Sadly it's the same here. Five years? No return of "I love you"? No explanation? I don't think so. If Duo was portrayed as more to character he'd have told Heero to shove it when he said "I'm back now". It ruins a good fic when writers can't be bothered to develop character. I love Heero and Duo as a couple. It would have been nice to see their love returning gradually and some time spent on their mutual feelings. Maybe a chapter or two on them talking and figuring it out. It would have made this fic special, would have made it stand out from the rest.

The use of other languages was kinda annoying (b/c I had to scroll all the way to the bottom), but I think it gave a nice touch.
Overall, I think it was wonderful. |

I think the idea of making Heero into an Indiana Jones type guy was great, and you managed to keep the same atmosphere around the characters and events. Your dialogs are quite clever and entertaining. And I like how you show the progression of the romantic plot as well as the action.
Your description of the surroundings is also quite good, although a little wordy. Sometimes it seems that you are trying to put too much information into one sentence. You might try splitting it into several smaller/shorter sentences.
There is one thing though I would like to point out to you about your first scene in the fanfiction. The helicopter in your story just seemed out of place so I did some research. As you mentioned later in your notes, this whole thing happens in 1939 (If I’m mistaken, than please disregard the rest of this note). At that point in time helicopters weren’t as widely spread as they are nowadays. In fact they were in the first stages of development. According to my research the first two-person helicopter was developed in the early 1940 in Germany. Up until then, the helicopter invented by Sikorsky was only able to carry one person and had an open cockpit. Also it wasn’t suitable for carrying any other loads. That’s why I don’t think Heero and Trowa would be able to use this type of transportation.
In general I think your story is great. And I hope you’ll keep writing. |

Chapters 3+4 were good and the blossoming romance between Duo and Heero is so adorable. The plot is building nicely and I can't wait until you have all the characters come together. |

It's different, but fun to see Heero written this way and not as the perfect soldier. Hope this fic has plenty of action (the 1x2 action lol) and suspense in later chapters. |
