    I enjoyed reading Perseverance, I especially loved the shower seen with Donnie and Charlie. This one was overall sexy with Mike. Loved it!

    Although I am sad about Donnie being killed off, I feel like it was the perfect reason for Mikey to mature a bit and have a shot at Charlie. Love this! Now, if we could only get some Raph-centered stories :D

    All in all, this was a good story :) I got a little worried when I saw it listed as 'completed' at the end of chapter 5, but when you added the epilogue I felt much better, lol. It was a very good ending and it provided a great resolution to the tension that had been building throughout the reast of the story.

    Don't get me wrong, I'm still sad about Donnie being dead (sorry, I can't help it...like i said in my first review, he has been and will always be my favorite), but I am happy for Mikey and Charlie. The both of them deserve happiness, and if they can cleave to each other and make each other happy, more power to them.

    In regards to Erica, don't let her get to you. As writers, we have to deal with plenty of negative reviews (trust me, I've gotten more than a few...I had my own 'Erica' for my TMNT fic (on FF.net in any case...have yet to have one on AFF.net, lol). But the bottom line is, we write for us...because we have stories to tell, and not everyone is going to like them. People in this world simply have tastes that are too varied, and there is no way that we'll be able to please everybody. So...with that in mind, we should always make sure to please ourselves. What matters most is that YOU (I'm not shouting, but there's no italics feature that I can use, lol) are pleased with your story and how it turned out.

    I better stop now before I start to ramble...although it's probably too late, lol.

    Anywho, I hope I was able to cheer you up a little, and this really was a good story. You really are a good writer, and I hope to see more from you :)

    Dear Erica,

    I just thought I'd let you know that your reviews make me feel like shit. I don't expect everyone to like what I write, but then, I'm not writing for everyone; I'm writing for myself. I like to post some of my stories on AFF because I have enjoyed reading so many other authors' works and I want to share something of my own for anyone who is interested. If you don't like something I've written, that's fine. Tell me why you don't like it; I'm open to suggestion. However, if you don't like a particular pairing, then maybe you shouldn't bother reading it.

    I wrote this particular story, "Just Say Yes," for my friend Lola Hard as a present because she always leaves me helpful, constructive reviews and I wanted to make her a present to show her how much I appreciate her. Click on some of my other stories and read the reviews she's left; they're useful to me as a writer.

    When you leave reviews in caps, it's the equivalent of shouting at me and I don't like it. I don't like being ordered around and I especially don't like being hounded in your reviews of different stories to finish one particular story ("Braving it in the New World") that's giving me a bad case of writer's block.

    I can't tell you how disappointing it was for me when I saw that I had a new review only to find that it was just you, Erica, AGAIN. Sneering at a well-written (in my humble opinion) story, just because you don't like the pairing and because you're disappointed that I'm not writing what you want me to write. You don't own me and you're not my boss.

    So please do me a favour, Erica; stop leaving reviews. I don't believe in deleting reviews, because I think that everyone is entitled to voice her opinion, but if you leave another bossy one, I'll click that "remove review" button faster than you can blink because I'm sick of it.

    Most sincerely yours,

    Eva Brick

    its an okay story but I prefer her and Don. Plus what are you going to do with LEO and the other girl. I was hoping you would work more on that one than this one.

    *Sighs* Well, I am not thrilled with Donnie being killed off, but that is all I'm going to say on that subject...just had to say my little piece on the matter since Donnie has been and always will be my favorite turtle. But I do in fact agree with Lola, this is your fic...your lore and your universe. That means you get to do what you want.

    That being said, I will continue to read this fic for the simple fact that you are a good writer and I like your style...not to mention, I always feltthere was something between Charlie and Mikey in 'Perseverence'...a bond tha she just didn't have with Raph or Leo, so I am curious as to where this goes...and I'll try my best not to get choked up every time I imagine Donnie being dead :( How did he die, btw? Will you say later on?

    In regards to the story itself, I like how your building things between Mikey and Charlie...how they're awkward and curious at the same time all the while being nervous and a little scared. It's also nice to see Mikey acting a little more mature without really losing who he really is...it shows character growth, and that's always a good thing.

    Oh my god... O_O You continued it! And- and you- you dedicated it to me...! *a dull thudding sound signalling the fall of the unconscious body* I just can't express how wonderful this is. I already told you my opinion on the first chapter, and here's what I think of the second one. I love how awkward and broken the two of them are, how in everything they do around each other I can hear Charlie's silent 'sorry' and Mikey's just as silent 'it's okay.' The image of Charlie spacing out on the overflowing vaze - it really got to me. As well as the remark that Mikey "couldn’t smell his brother on her anymore." I think that remark has so much meaning; it's a sad reminder of Donnie's death; and at the same time it's a hope for Mike who is in love with this woman (like he isn't overstepping some taboos with her anymore when he's standing so close to her). The little bit of physical closeness between them was gorgeous; to put it shortly, very hot :) I love Michelangelo's maturity, his will to wait, to keep on living and look forward to the next day, his realization this could be his only chance with her, his determination to do everything right, his responsibility. Not to mention he brought her to the zoo! Yay, I love animals! ^_^ But, well, of course it depends on the zoo; if it's a good one where animals are well fed and well handled then it's okay (as opposed to the majority of zoos in Russia that leave much to be desired). AND! I loved the little glimpses into Mike's previous relationship and Raph's 'non-existent' love life :) I'm so intrigued! And I can't help but notice how Leo's personal life was carefully stepped around :D Can't wait to read more.

    *looks at the previous commenter* I would have sent all this as a personal message, but your e-mail is hidden. So, here goes.
    You know, that wasn't exactly polite of you to say such things. It's a universe of the author, and you could comment on anything regarding style, characterization, and the overall delivery; but the plot twists stay in the author's sole possession. Don't like - don't read; read, but have nothing to say - don't comment. What you said was basically 'I didn't really like what you wrote here, go write another fic of yours that I find more interesting than this.' The writer isn't your slave to do as you command. You are a GUEST at her profile, you need to remember that. But if you still decided to leave such a comment, you could at least express your opinion on this story along with it, or give some constructive critisism on what you've just read. One movie character said, "Want to give a scolding - praise first." A wise thing, come to think of it. Concerning starting a new story before finishing the previous one - I could say, like an active fanfiction writer, that there are some things that just refuse to stay unwritten, even if you are elbows deep in other stories - you can't NOT post whatever wants to be posted; it's called inspiration... Okay, I suspect people here (whoever cares to read this rant) will start scowling at me now. Don't. I'm just trying to put some effort into changing the readers' psychology AND ethics. Trust me when I say, writing good fanfiction is a freaking PAIN in the butt, and it saddens me to no end that people seem to only take pleasure in reading, but not return it to the writer in the form of a good review. Don't take offense, just be more considerate, please. Peace!
    P.S. If you'd like to contact me and continue this discussion - my e-mail is in my profile, you are welcome to write to me anytime.

    ~Lola
