    Okay, first time diving in, so I hope I’m doing this right xD reviewed two chapters for The Suicune’s Choice 573 words. I haven’t reviewed this before so it fits with this week’s theme, too, I believe. So...3 points total? I think? I’m so sorry idk what I’m doing xD

    Pokémon The Suicune's Choice

    A very valid question, one that ought to be addressed at least somewhat in every Pokémon story, in my opinion. How much do they understand? Again, I have to applaud you for so clearly outlining the laws that exist in this world, even though it’s just the start of the second chapter. I’m amazed...

    Pokémon The Suicune's Choice

    Okay I actually stumbled across this fic on FFN a few weeks ago, but it’s HIGH time I leave a review on this beautiful, beautiful story. To start: your prose. Is. Gorgeous. It’s so smooth and vivid, and I can clearly imagine each scene as though I’m actually immersed in it. I love that, while...

    Threadmarks: Chapter 12: Belonging

    TW: This chapter contains depictions of child abuse that may be upsetting for some readers. Reader discretion is advised. Chapter 12: Belonging It hurt to breathe. Not that Leo wasn't used to it; ugly bruises, bloody scrapes, and deep cuts had become a regular part of his daily life since...

    Pokémon the envy of eden

    I know I’ve reviewed a newer chapter than this one but I somehow missed this one! oooh this is SO. GOOD. And heartbreakingly accurate. I love it and I hate it at the same time. Another good one. But I can’t help but wonder what Inari’s actual stance is toward humans throughout this chapter...

    Threadmarks: Chapter 11: Defeated

    Artwork by @Dragonfree Chapter 11: Defeated Wes stared at the scene before him, at an utter loss for words. The kitchen had transformed from the previous night; the table had been scooted to the very center of the floor, with a second, foldable one set up and pushed against one end to make a...

    Threadmarks: Chapter 10: Victims and Warriors

    Chapter 10: Victims and Warriors Wes had been in a plethora of uncomfortable situations within the last few days, but this one might have been the worst of them all. Duking had introduced him and Rui to his two children just outside his home before sending the kids back inside with Wes in tow...

    Pokémon Of Sand and Shadows

    Hello again!! Always a pleasure to see your reviews! :D Now, this is why I enjoy your reviews so much - you pick up on the most subtle things thst most of my readers don’t! I won’t spoil anything here, but I will say that you are absolutely right to be a little skeptical of all these things...

    Pokémon the envy of eden

    OH BOY A NEW CHAPTER HERE WE GO this is just a nitpick, really: it should be “Yes, one that my friend, a hydreigon, told me.” Oh, ouch. This is N’s struggle in a nutshell here; he has a voice, he can hear what others can’t, but he struggles to know how to make people listen. He is...

    Threadmarks: Chapter 9: The Deal

    Chapter 9: The Deal Wes froze. Panic flared inside his chest at the mention of his Snagger name. No one, no one outside of Snagem knew him as Leo. So how...? He willed himself to stay calm, to not let his shock show, but his mind was racing. How did this man know? How did he know...

    Pokémon Of Sand and Shadows

    I’m so happy you came back for another review! I don’t plan on doing a ton of Pokémon POV, but it will pop up occasionally throughout the story, mostly to provide more characterization for the Pokémon, especially the shadows. Ah! This made me so happy, lol. I’m so glad you’re liking the...

    Threadmarks: Chapter 8

    Chapter 8: City of Rust "D-do you always drive that fast?" It was the first thing she'd said to him all morning - well, afternoon, by this point. They were several hours into their trek to Pyrite, and they still had a ways to go; Wes had only stopped for a brief moment to allow them to...

    Pokémon the envy of eden

    It’s long overdue for me to share my thoughts on this fic! To be honest, I don’t consider myself a professional by any means, and I don’t really feel qualified to give constructive criticism, especially for a story that is already so MARVELOUSLY written. But I’m happy to share what specific...

    Pokémon Of Sand and Shadows

    Hello! Sorry it’s been a minute since getting back to your review! I just wanted to let you know that I took your advice and edited the first couple chapters. You had a good point on not withholding Wes’ name for so long - to be honest, I wasn’t even sure of it when I was writing it, lol. So I...

    Threadmarks: Chapter 7

    Chapter 7: Noctis Mortem The crumbling old house left much to be desired in terms of comfort, but Wes supposed it was better than nothing. They'd made it to the ruins of a tiny old town about two hours northwest of Phenac. Night had officially settled over the desert, and the winds brought a...

    Pokémon Of Sand and Shadows

    Aaaaah another amazing review!! I’ve read this like 5 times, it makes me so happy lol I originally included this scene to introduce Willie’s character, as this is not the last we will be seeing of him - but I realize now that I definitely could have trimmed down the few paragraphs about the...

    Pokémon Of Sand and Shadows

    Thank you so much for your review!! I absolutely understand not enjoying retellings - for the most part, they don’t actually do it for me either! While the early chapters of this story are very faithful to the game, things diverge quite a bit from the source material starting in the next...

    Threadmarks: Chapter 6: Lockdown

    Chapter 6: Lockdown This is definitely not how I thought today would go. Rui said these words to herself as she sat beside a grumbling Wes in the Phenac clinic. Their visit had taken roughly two hours from start to finish, much to the Trainer’s chagrin. He was in quite a sour mood, although...
