someone in the mailing list I'm in said this was updated, and I ran here. ^_^x I'm really awed at how you made all the charaters recognizable and IC throughout the fic. It looks like you're following the manga plot with Sano and Katsu, Kenshin and Shishio and such, but at the same time you've changed enough that we don't know what's going to happen and keep us on edge. It's very evil of you, and I love it! Let's hope there's no goodbye scene in this, that baka better not leave Kaoru and Yahiko alone. I wish you luck with your muse!

Glad you updated, this is getting very suspenseful. I wonder what Sano will do and what Megumi's mother would do to take her and make her marry...Soujirou the psychiatrist? Oh boy, I've never seen that one before, let's hope he won't damage his patients for life. And Kenshin doesn't know about the pills yet? Maybe he'll be more careful sleeping with Kaoru if he knew. I really love this fic, and I'll just repeat how much I like the way you keep it all so real. Only a few minor concerns, like formatting (two words are often not spaced out, like MakotoShishio) and slight inconsistancies in spelling (Sakara, then it reverts back to Sagara). They're really minor though and they didn't really distract me much from enjoying this fic. Again, let me say how happy I am that you updated with two whole new chapters for me to read over and over again till the next chapter comes! :)

And here's my review for chapter 8. I broke up my review because it would've been too long otherwise. Shura's gone, but in her place we get scum like Shishio, Aoshi and a whole bunch of others. I like the way you mirror Kenshin's struggle with Sano's. And the way you described Megumi's mother was so apt, I found her and her lover sordid and unlikable. I can certainly see why Megumi doesn't want to go back! Aki is the relative you wish you didn't have, ugh. And it makes me wonder if Kaoru will get in trouble for living with Kenshin, what with Aki reporting back to her mother about her every move. It also looks like too many people are starting to discover Kenshin's identity...the gossipy instructors at the dojo, and now the students of the dojo itself? I'm very eager to see where you'll lead the story with so many things going on at once, this is very exciting. ^_^ This story is just awesome!

I nearly had a heart attack in front of my computer monitor when I saw that you'd updated. Thanks you so much! ^_^ The story seems to have switched focus from the Kenshin/Kaoru relationship to the various forces trying to reel Kenshin (and Sano) in, and I must say, I'm very intrigued even if I'm also very interested in seeing how those two will work things out. I'm glad Shura's out of the picture for now, but her parting plans were omnious. ::shudder:: The way you worked in the various issues in Japanese society like the rise of right-wing, nationalist feelings and how the ordinary people in the streets react to it was just wonderful. One thing confused me though, are some of the sentences in bold because they're important or was it just a formatting error?

I'm not usually a bit fan of A/U fics, but you have managed to create a setting that reasonably holds and explains the characters, while still preserving the essential flavor of the characters as we know them (usually one or the other suffers). At the same time, you are introducing enough original plot twists that I'm actually interested in the story as well as in interactions. I am *very* impressed!. A good job, and a very enjoyable read. Thank you for sharing your work with us. I look forward eagerly to future chapters! Kathy

Cool, you have a RK fic too! You know, I read your Inuyasha fic and liked it a lot, but I really really L-O-V-E this fic, which is a bit strange seeing that I like Inu-chan more than RK, hehe. It's so real and I can't wait to see what happens next! You're very talented, and if I had a mediaminer account, I'd so put this on my favorites.

This story is so original, so well-written, so real, so gritty, and so interesting. This is by far the best Rurouni Kenshin fanfic I have read. I never thought I would find something so great. Keep up the good work.

This is a wonderful fic, thank you so much for sharing it with us! It was really nice how you tied in the characters' past histories with the present, eg Megumi being from an illegal background to being a doctor, and Shishio turning up. Kaoru's insecurities are so natural, and you wrote them beautifully IMHO. I have a question though. In the first chappie, it said that Tomoe and Akira were siblings and that Tomoe got the bullet meant for Kenshin while he lived with them for a while. How come in your latest chapters say Enishi's her only brother and that Kenshin can't remember/didn't know in the first place who she was? Also, Enishi visited Kaoru in the early chapters as the neighbourhood bully, but he looks like a different person here. Like I said before, I REALLY like SotS (see rating above...it's only 9 and 8 for the top two because of a few spelling errors), but these things are confusing me. Oh well, please clarify them if you want in your next update. ;) I really want to know *why* Kenshin's superiors want Kaoru pregnant, and if Kenshin's going to kill/maim Kaoru. And how or when will Shura come into this? It's only been 2 days since you've updated, but I'm already going through withdrawl from not getting enough of your GREAT story. Good luck, and thanks for writing this fic!
