Have to say I'm really sad to see this story on hiatus.....I was really enjoying it!

Hope everything's okay and you'll be back soon!!!!!!

Ok. First off, I didn't read your prequel. No offense, just not in the mood for another Orihime coupling. That didn't seem to matter since you did a good job filling in the blanks.
I really like Ichigo/Tatsuki stories and this one is great! Yeah, Ichigo gets angsty like you warned, but holy hell the chemistry you've developed b/w these two is just awesome! And the lemony-limes? *sings w/ vibrato* AWW-soooommme! I don't know if it was because it was so... just... wrong, but when he's trying to seduce her on the floor of his sisters' bedroom while they were asleep RIGHT THERE... Wow, lol. That was all sortsa hott! Not to mention their 2nd encounter(s)!
I really like how you're developing their relationship. She seems to give him some measure of peace; getting less and less angry w/ the whole Orihime situation.
I'm enjoying the mystery woman Uryu is secretly with. I have my own suscpitions that I'll keep to myself. I also LOVE what you've done w/ Isshin! He is hysterical and SO much IN character. His antics are priceless!
I'm looking forward to what's coming up. In fact, I've been checking practically every day to see if you've updated, lol. I get the feeling you're about to do something naughty with the plot, and I don't mean lemony lol. Although that would be nice too lol. Great job, and I'll keep checking to see if you've updated!

Hey, you're back! I liked this chapter, as usual. You keep writing, I'll keep reviewing.

M, This is my favorite chapter, actually. I really liked the way you handle Isshin's character and his chat with Ichigo was definitely a highlight of the chap. But I think what really makes this one my favorite was just the, frankness is the word I guess I'm looking for, of Ichigo going to see the Tatsuki. Him coming in his shinigami form was an important stuff in him being more open with her, but he really was bearing his soul to her during that conversation when he FINALLY asked her out. For a moment there all of Ichigo's bullshit excuses was gone and he just saw Tatsuki clearly. I thought it was symbolic, and cool as all hell.

You've really peaked my interest about the true nature of the plot too. You got serious skills, even when you're suffering from writer's block, so..ya know, just keep being awesome.

Good stuff, M. Glad to see that you're back! I missed your story. Writer's block does suck major ass. I'm glad to see you like "That Look" so far too, I hope it doesn't disappoint you.

Congratulations on overcoming your writer's block! I understand how frustrating that can be--especially when you know where you want the writing to go and it just won't cooperate! Good chapter. I thought it was hilarious that Orihime got tripped up by the "playing house" euphemism. I have a question about the nature of Ogichi's link with Ichigo--what exactly is the extent of it? For example, did Ogichi know, that first time, that Ichigo was sleeping with *Tatsuki*, or did he just know he was experiencing heightened emotions with *someone*, and put it together when Tatsuki's mom told them she spent the night at the clinic? Can he just get a read on his emotions or is it more? Sorry if you've laid this out and I'm just being dense. Anyway, as always, I look forward to reading more!

Don't be so down on yourself, M. It's great that you're so critical of your writing, but this chapter was fine. Both of them could use some downtime anyway. I am highly interested in seeing where this fic is going next, too!

On a different note, have you ever read "That Look" by Lord of the Land of Fire? It's on FF.net, and I think you'd enjoy it. It is a Naruto fic though, and I don't know if you're even into Naruto so I could be off base though.

Another great chapter, as usual. The lemon scene was good, but it was the emotional connection between Ichigo and Tatsuki that made it excellent. Keep up the good work.

Also, are you looking to establish more stories in the "Reflection/Salvation" universe? I think a Ichigo/Yoruichi fic from you would be great, but of course it wouldn't fit in this universe.

Another perfect chapter, M. I'm glad that they are starting to let each other in more, which is always good. Plus, SEX!!! So yeah.
Take all the time you need, I'm not going anywhere.

Ooooo, I was wondering if Ogichi would know what was up, since they're connected and all. Well played, excellent chapter. The angst is in great supply and is just lovely. Also, you're totally spoiling me with your update schedule!
