Reviews for Looking after him

    I don't care if this is 5 and a half years too late. I'm reviewing this.

    This is probably the last story I'd expect to find here. Honestly, I expected something much, MUCH worse. I'm glad I was wrong. This is a cute story. I've always thought about ShadowxCream. Such an opposite pairing, but thats what makes it so cute and funny (though I wouldn't really consider it "romantic," even I'll admit its a bit creepy for Shadow to be legitimately attracted to her). You did admit that Shadow was a bit OOC. In this situation, I feel like Shadow would be kinda resistant at first, but eventually give in to Cream's affection. I always assumed Shadow gets along with girls more ("most of the guys I know are idiots anyways..."). There were some formatting issues, and bits of dialogue felt off. Example:

    “What’s wrong? Don’t like the thunder?” you ask as I look up at you. “I love it when it rains don’t get me wrong it helps the plants grow, but I can’t stand thunder.” I say still holding on to you. After that I feel you putting your arms around me.

    Generally, when character perspective an dialogue change, it would be broken up. Also, Cream's sentence gets pretty long-winded. I understand if she's kinda panicked, but it should probably be split up with commas. Here's how I'd write it:

    "Whats wrong? Don't like thunder?" you ask as I look up at you.

    "I-I l-l-love when it rains, d-don't get me wrong, I know it helps the plants grow, but I can't stand thun-" another flash of lightning, and I grip you tighter.

    Then, I feel your arms slowly wrap around me. "Its okay. I'm here."

    Not trying to write it out for you (considering I don't think this story will update, or that you'll even see this), thats just my perspective. Is it too much to ask for any sort of update, though?

    I did enjoy that. Thank you for the shout-out. Sorry this read and reply took so long, but us College Students tend to lead busy lives.

    It's always nice to see the same story from a different point of view. After all, different eyes see different things, regardless of what's going on. It's a trait i wish was a little more common and popular among other authors and such.

    Shadow was a bit ooc, but i liked it even more because of that. This chapter was just as nice as the first.

    I for one hope this becomes a series. It was most excellent. The flow, the writing style, the turn of events. Even the pairing. I don't think i've seen it before and that makes it more fun. i liked this story and, even if it never gets any further then this, it was a sweet one-shot.

    You've at least one fan.
