    Merci, I am honoured to have been some kind of crazy influence guiding you to the Tekken World. It is a rare thing to see a writer with real skill in the dying world of Tekken Yaoi and I am pleased to find your story so inviting and so well written.

    Doyon is a very well described and realistic original character, a vision of someone with strength and a definate reminder to Hwoarang of what the life of crime would have rewarded him with, even if that ideal is changing inside the Blood Talon.

    I really enjoyed the description of Hwoarang sitting back and having a short break, giving him some time to smoke and go into that introspective place when you get a nice stone on. I can see the plot thickening wonderfully as our dear Korean youth begins to understand his mission...and the complications that come with this shift in feeling for Jin. This chapter is certainly building the anticipation for the crucial moment of the re-meeting of the Blood Talon and our favorite tortured demonic japanese youth.

    It does seem that great minds think alike. I have already begun the last story in the Sword Maker Trilogy and we are seeing some interesting things happening to Hwoarang due to the Devil Genes infection. I will begin posting that one soon, as I am already in Chapter 9...but yet to post the end of the second story, "The First Crack in the Metal". Lets face it, Hwoarang just looks good with a set of wings. hehehehe.

    What stands out most as I read each new chapter and look forward to the next, is how you managed to make Jun such a vital influence even in death. It is a difficult thing to make her feel real and this gift that binds Jun to Hwoarang will ultimately bind Hwoarang to Jin. Beautifully done.

    Haha, with how Hwoarang is, he may very well end up in the hospital again. ^_^;
    And I do still like this update, even if it was a little short. ;D Jin angst is inevitabe, given his situation, and you do it well without making him seem like someone just needs to slap him. Heh. I like the way you portrayed him as being a little bitter about his plan - I mean, who REALLY wants to kill the rest of their bloodline, including yourself, no matter how good the reason is? And it's fitting that Jin would wonder what Jun would think - not only about the plan, but his trying to avenge her by killing Ogre. Revenge usually leads down a wicked path, or whatever they say. Good intentions and all that.
    Heh, and as always, I enjoy Jin's thoughts concerning Hwoarang. ^_^ Hwoarang's his chosen. Oh, adorable. ^_^

    Sorry for the long review. Great job, as usual, and looking forward to the next update!

    This chapter really stands out. Your characterization of Jin is fantastic, his motivation is without question. I really enjoyed the way you brought Hwoarang into Jins thoughts and that line about "this being the last thing chosen" was intense. Really looking forward to the update and the first meeting of Jin/Hwoarang!

    You're very welcome! ^_^ This is such a good fic, so I want you to know it. Heh.

    Angel is amusing the hell out of me. XD I like the way you have her conversing with Hwoarang. And that little dash of het wasn't a bad thing at all, because like you said, we all know Hwoarang's going to end up with Jin anyway, so.. Plus, I really think Yon deserves something for all of her efforts. I definitely didn't see the twist coming that she knew the doctor! I would have thought someone in that situation would have despised Hwoarang, but if she heard Hwoarang's teammate brag about it - ugh, I still can't believe those guys.

    I really really like the description of Hwoarang's wings emerging, and his flying for the first time. Very beautiful imagery. Also, "fight or flight - literally" is great. XD I do hope nothing bad happened to Yon - is there going to be any followup on her, or was that pretty much the end of her role in this fic?

    Once again, great job. Can't wait for the next update!

    I like how this is beginning and can't wait to see the direction this goes in. Please, continue. I anxiously await the coming chapters.

    ..wow, that Kang guy really gets on my nerves.. though Chin does, too. I bet Yon is being nice to Hwoarang because she's got a bit of a crush, but who can blame her? Heh. I really hope she doesn't get into trouble for this, and that Baek manages to make a deal, also. Can't wait for the next update!

    Yay for a Hwoarang-centric chapter! This was written really well. I'm glad you told us the rationale behind Hwoarang taking the mission. I liked that you had him refuse at first, because who would likely say 'yes' right off the bat, let alone Hwoarang? Great job. Looking forward to the next update

    This was truly fantastic. I really mean that. It's so great seeing a good JinHwo fic with such a new and interesting plot! I love the idea of Hwoarang (eventually) having to take on Angel's powers, especially with him being such a "bad boy", though he is good at heart. It was wonderful how you worked in the canon of the actual endings in Tekken (and I loved Xiaoyu's dream sequence XD), and your characterization of the characters we've seen so far have been really great. I especially like the way you describe people's auras and their mindsets. It worked really well for when Jun couldn't understand the Korean of Hwoarang's daily life. This was really really great stuff. Can't wait for the next update!
