I didn't choose to use the number rating system, because I think that it's really difficult to place a numerical rating on writing/art. I really loved this fic. It had all the YnM elements that I love- sweetness/angst between Tsuzuki and Hisoka, nice storytelling and really good understanding of the characters. I've read stories by Starza before and really liked them. For some reason I hadn't gotten around to this one til recently. I was not disappointed.

This was a darling fic! I really liked the story line, and your characterizations were very good. The reason I rated a little low for style and spelling/grammar was...well, there were a lot of errors. You'd benefit from using a beta reader, if you don't already. Many of the spelling errors were those that wouldn't be caught by a spell checker, because they were real words (you had "word" rather than "world," and "chief" where it should have been "chef" for example), and you had some grammar issues as well. One that I remember is something like "...their relationship didn't change since then" when it should have read "...their relationship hadn't changed since then"

As for style of writing, there was a lot of choppiness. There were so many instances in which you could have used compound sentences, rather than short sentences, and it would have given a nicer flow. Also, you often begin sentences with conjunctions (and, but, so), when those words are meant to join compound sentences, not to begin single sentences. If you are using one of those words at the beginning of a sentence, that is a clue that it can most likely be combined with the sentence before it to make a compound sentence.

Please don't take this as a flame, as it absolutely is not! You have a lovely talent! This is meant in the friendliest, most constructive voice possible!! ~big grin~
