rate_review Reviews

I'll begin by saying I like your entire story as a whole, though I do have a few rants:
1. I won't bother to tell the characters are OOC since you already gave that warning, but for the record, you have a tendancy to do that. A lot. In all the stories you write. ::cough::Amy=Marysue::hack::Sonic=Completeasswhole::cough:: It's also very easy to see which characters you love, dislike, or have a neutrual stand on. (And to me, that's not good writing. That's you transfering your feelings for said characters and making the characters an outlet.) To be honest now that I think of it, this was the ONLY story you've written where Amy WASN'T a Mary Sue and Sonic hasn't been a complete asswhole. I'm in awe.

2. Is there a reason you write GUN as being so weak and rather stupid minded when it comes to fighting? Yeah Shadow's the UL but let's be a little serious here...

3. I have no problem with hot gay man sex. I don't. But really. Knuckles and Shadow just scare me. Actually--Knuckles scared me. A lot. In the last two chapters. For once, I was almost wishing for AmyxShadow--at least I'm used to you making Amy an out of character-the light shines out of my ass while Sonic becomes a total asshole Mary Sue--or at least a Mary Sue--as much as I hate that god aweful ship. (So very cliche', how that pairing is written. Sorry, even yours.) I understand Knuckles switching out Shadow for Sonic and all but...::shivers:: As a Knuckles fan, this made me very depressed to be honest.
I'm actually very surprised at how easy Knuckles is getting it. I'm also disturbed by how easily he gave in and how fluffed out he's acting. Again, as a Knuckles fan, this depresses me. Greatly. Even Cream stood up better than he did. He admits he likes one person and he just melts. That was just sad and so completely anti--GRRRR this pissed me off! I'm agreeing with you Harley--you REALLY should have written that part... Or at least, have Shadow be a total asswhole and use Knuckles' weaknesses against him instead of turning into some fluffed out yoai...GRRRR!

4. I'm not a Tails fan, or a least a major one, but really. You went easy on Amy ::cough::jadedfavortism:: and Knuckles::scaryflufftime:: so I don't see why Tails should just get it so godawful bad. I expect it, as he is Sonic's best friend/whatever else you're making him, to get it the worst (though Rouge got it pretty...ugly.) but still, if you can go easy on friggin Knuckles, you can go just as easy on Tails.

Over all, your story gets a 3/5 from me. The Knuckles chapters just leave a bad taste in my mouth and Amy getting it easy when just about everyone else will probably get it horribly was just annoying, as it's obvious you were only nicer to her because of favorism on the writer's part. (Though I have to wonder if this is the same case with Knux...) I will however, rate your story 4 stars as I don't believe by any means, it should have been at two stars. It's no where near as bad. (Actually, up until Knuckles, I thought it was great, minus Amy getting it so easy.)

On a side note, I refuse to review ARAAT at all because quite frankly...nothing I say would be good. Except the sex scenes are well written. But everthing else so so cliche' and rather...insulting to certain Sonic characters as a whole. And good lord I'm such an Amy fan but I down right HATE it when she's turned into a Mary Sue for that pairing. She's a annoying yet lovable 12 year old. The END people. If some chick stulked me everyone I went and was all clingy, I'd run away too. That doesn't make Sonic an ass. That makes him LOGICAL. And I'm not a big Sonic fan but it does disturb me how you portray him in that story. Rouge too (And I loath her but geez, she's not as over the top bitchy bad as you make her in stories.) (Though what kills me is that in every single (or just about) Amy/Shadow pairing, for some reason, all of sudden, Sonic is just SO jealous and in love with Amy. If it weren't so cliche' in those stories and annoying, it'd be hiliarous.) Whether I like a character or hate them, I would rather they stay in character, with them reacting to the situation as they would if it actually happened to them, not the way the ff authors think they should. I won't knock your story too hard as it has tons of reviews--though I have my own laughable thought on THAT too: people like more of the same. ::sighs:: Hence why no one makes any good, original, outstanding stories anymore. No one puts there foot down and says they won't except more of the same. But I digress.

I'm happy your writing this story, as it's one of the very few I actually read that you've written. (The one with Tails being badass was WONDERFUL by the way, OOC or not...)

My god that was a good chapter. The pairing was odd, and as I said before, the part seems out of place considering how the story is going/being written, but damn it. That was mighty hawt ass slash. And I for one, love you for it. Another great chapter and as always...please go easy on Tails. I'll give you lots and lots of cookies if you do! Oh. And you should update this sooner. Man, this story is badass, how the hell does it have such a low rating star wise! ::Goes to fix that::

Well, Draconis, that was quite an extensive, if passionate review, and I apreciate the honesty. Being the other writer of the ARAAT series, I plead guilty to most charges laid against it. Yeah, we made Sonic too much of an ass. Amy was simply too perfect and rational and kind. Yeah, our unflattering portrayal of Rouge was unfair. We did go too far at times. And no, I will not appologise for Tails, because the little guy really is that badass.

ARAAT has been a learning experience for me, a practice ground, and I have indeed learned a lot. If we were to go back and redo the series, there would be significant differences to it, and it would be, in my not-so-humble opinion, much improved. Hey, perhaps one day we will do that. I certainly would enjoy taking a shot at ARAAT: The Revised Edition.

As for the story at hand, I agree wholeheartedly that it has taken a turn for the worse. Knuckles is acting way, way out of character. In the context of this story, Shadow is also totally out of it. Within the space of two chapters it has gone from sick and twisted to lovey-dovey, and it's making my head spin. Terminus is appearantly the main culprit, having turned the story in this direction, and Harley let it happen. This is surprising, considering that Harley has always been very critical of my work, and I've become a better writer for it. But hey, I can forgive her a moment of weakness in giving in to some hot, sweaty cyber-mansex. : P

Just as long as she fixes it. In any case, I've already complained to both writers elsewhere, and I hope they can get this thing back on track.

This is 1 story i hope u guys can think up more of. I just want 2 say that this is a great fic. keep it up.

Bleh... God, this is fucking sick...

And Knuckles would never just give in to Shadow like that, especially after everything Shadow's done.

Sorry, but this just sickens me to no end.

Hmmm.... Shadow kidnaps Tails and is actually nice to him! (all to just get his trust for the plan! nyahaha)
Of course he goads Sonic into believing he's doing horrible unbelievable things to him. What's the plan? Shadow proposes if Sonic rapes Tails himself he would let him go or kill him otherwise. Trying to save his young friend from that fate he agrees. Tails' faith in Sonic would be shattered and Shadow could have authorities burst in catching him in the act of raping a child thus Sonic and everything he stood for....destroyed. Not to mention the hoards of evidence of previous goings on in the dank cellar of doom. He would be ruined.
Of course I would do this last when Sonic's mind would be slipping and lacking proper judgement.
I love this story. For some reason that just spewed out while reading it. I hope you liked but it probably pales in comparison to what you were planning! XD I love the evilness it's a nice change of pace.

*Sigh* Now I'm torn between beggin for Tails to not be hurt or to just wait for th inevitable. Though I have to say I REALLY enjoyed the whole snapping/OMG what have I done of Shadow, but the slipping of Knuckles was great to. This was excellently written and I'm slightly disturbed that I'm anxious for more.

I was wondering why Knuckles was enjoying it. I figured he'd get the same treatment as Rouge. Right, well, Please don't harm Tails, oh please don't. Let him escape, oh please don't harm him. That good enough to garentee something awful is gonna happen to him? I can false-beg some more if I must. So yeah I just know Knuckles is gonna slip up and say Sonic instead of Shadow sooner or later and thans going to get Shadow so enraged he'll murder Knuckles or something.

wow. what a strange twist. Truthfully, i was expecting a bloody battle and a equally brutal rape between Shadow and Knuckles, but..meh...what you going to do. (my two faves by the way). Seriously, don't do TOO much damage to poor innocent Tails.

um...don't mind me being curious, Miss Harley Qunn, but from way you talk about Knuckles and such, its seems like you don't really like him that much. i already figure you Really don't like Rouge. i'm just wondering that all.

Can't waits what happens next.

and FYI, whoever's ideal was it to give your story a 2 stars stats, two words: FUCK THEM!
