Black and white, and red all over.
I have to say, the imagery in this story is really compelling for me. Even before chapter 6, you had a theme of white going through the whole thing, mixed with black and crimson blood. It's a powerful combination of colors, and it adds to the sense of loneliness and desperation I feel when I imagine your Toushiro trapped by himself in Hueco Mundo. All he has is Gin - there's never a hint that anyone else might rescue him. Your world is just so... vacant. And appropriately so. Toushiro is doubly imprisoned, physically and within his own mind, forced to endure every moment of what YOU put him through. (^_^)
I like your characterizations of all the individuals you've shown. To be honest, I've never been a Gin/Hitsu shipper (I have my own much, much tamer Gin/Ran fanfic, so that's a part of it), but I think you do an excellent job with both of them. The way Gin manipulates, the way he treats everything as a game for his own amusement, is spot on. And while I usually think of Toushirou as a bit less childlike, you've done a good job of putting him into situations where he really has no choice but to let himself be considered a child. The vehemence with which he reacts to it is spot-on, and I thought this newest chapter was especially good for that.
I've also been a big fan of the destructive motifs you've used: breaking, infecting, etc. I think these are excellent metaphors for the nature of Aizen's faction as a whole, and they do such a great job of evoking the right mood for the interactions between Gin and Hitsugaya. This is the first fanfic I've read on AFF in a while, and it's proving to be a lot of fun. Keep up the good work!

Oh, this fic IS such fun!
It's been a while since something this exciting came out on the market.
You are a fantastic writer, you really are, although you might need to look out for those occasionally incorrectly spelt words.
Can't wait for the update.

You're a genius. I love this story to bits. It's amazing. I never thought I would enjoy anything with either Gin, Hitsugaya, or shota, let alone a combination of them. However, I am officially hooked. I've been lurking since about chapter four and decided I would drop you a line or two to let you know I thought you were a genius. I hope you update soon because I'm so excited to read more. ^_^

Again, a lovely piece of work. I've said it before and I'll say it again: your characterizations of both Gin and Hitsugaya are so wonderfully drawn that it leaves me breathless. All your chapters are amazing but this one had me completely enraptured. I loved, absolutely LOVED, the imagery of Gin's hands sliding down Hitsugaya's arms, their hands on the wall, the whirlwind of emotions that went through Hitsugaya (and the amazing way you were able to put that into words)...I could keep going, but I'll spare you my ramblings. (^_~) After the chapter with Nnoitra, it was quite the stark contrast to see how different Nnoitra's touch was to Gin's: how Nnoitra manhandled Hitsugaya to how Gin practically seduced Hitsugaya with his hands. The imagery...the imagery...oh goodness, I loved it. (^_^)
I also want to thank you for the flattering review you gave me on my story. I'm glad you liked it. Like I said in the fic, it WAS my first attempt at smut so the fact that such a good writer as yourself complimented it makes me a little more confident in my writing ability.
Finally, I'm even more flattered that you wish to read my little Gin/Hitsu fic. If you really want to subjegate yourself to it, I have it posted on fanfiction.net under the user name fusako_hime. I apologize in advance because it's just a simple one-shot that is nowhere NEAR the level of this amazing beauty that you've been working on here. Speaking of which, please DO keep up the good work and I look forward to reading more of this.

O.O....... SQUEEL!
xD I'm too happy to even say anything productive or reasonably... Reasonable. Two chapters for me, and sorry about not reviewing the previous chapter. But my god, I'm speechless.
The idea of Hitsugaya giving everything 'willingly' is going to make me fangirl for the next five hours. I'll never be able to listen to the word 'willingly' the same way again. 0.0, does that make sense...? *squeel*

I like how your writing this story. It is showing that while Ichimaru is cold hearted, he still has feelings. Not too many people can write characters in character and out of character at the same time. Some people just want to write them how they are portrayed in the magna or anime and not give them actual feelings.
I look forwards to reading more of this story.
The only thing I find wrong is that the chapters are short. They could be a little longer but great writing none the less.
