Author: missterious
Review fanfic: Cat's Cradle
Summary/Description: They were caught in the web of their youth. Aaron remembered. Jin had conveniently forgotten the torment she had put Aaron through. 
Reviewer: lockeyme

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------   Title--5/5 The title is good. Unique. And it really fits the story. It's a good choice because the story may not be about it but it's the main reason for the flow of the story. You get what I mean? I really like it because it's not too wordy and it makes sense unlike those who are so "direct".    Graphics/Posters--5/5 You must be a creative person. You make stories and make your own posters. I really like your poster because everything in it is meaningful. And the intricate patterns of the thread looks cool--it adds to the mood of the story.  I love it. It's simple but it's meaningful.   Foreward/Description-10 N/A   Originality--10/10 It's pretty original. Of course, I've never read anything with this plot. It's unpredictable   Plot--20/20 Honestly, I can't think of a story with a mysterious plot. But as I read through the story, I was like "Ah, so it's like this." I really don't know what to say because it's unpredictable. For a moment, I thought Jin was a lunatic because why would "she" do that to Aaron? (I'm not familiar with the characters) Then in the end, I realized, they really treasure their "friendship". In real life (I'm the kind of person who compares stories to real life so bear with me ^^), you'd hardly see someone who would bring up the past and confront someone after 15 years. But I guess, it could really happen. I was moved, honestly.    Grammar/Spelling--27/30 Your grammar is excellent. There might have some mistakes but I hardly notice them. Though, maybe you should learn how to not be too wordy sometimes. It would help lessen the awkwardness.^^   Flow--10/10 The flow is in normal "rate". It's not that fast and it's not slow. You did a great job in focusing more of the present life while reminiscing the past.    Neatness-3/5 I don't know how to judge you here. There's no problem with the fonts and even the color because it's not annoying and it didn't cause "any pain" LOL. Frankly, I do not like your choice of making the texts "stronger" because I just don't like it. But I'm not telling you to change them just because I do not like it. Maybe because I just don't feel it? LOL. But it kind of lessened the formality of your writing. I don't know--for me, how an author presents a story also affects the interest of the readers.    Extra- 5/5 This story isn't as awkward as it would be in real life. How you wrote it is really good. Normally, I would let something distract me while reading but when I started to read yours, I was pretty "absobed".    Total: 85/90 points   ---------------------------------------------------------------- Congratulations! You managed to get high remarks from our most strict reviewer here xD

A/N: Wow, you gave such a great review, I'm at a loss of what to say in return! LOL.

Okay, here's a little something:

 

You said I am "too wordy sometimes". I may be - but I'm not quite sure how to fix that. Any pointers? If you would have left even one short example, that could have been very helpful to me :)

As for my font...I've noticed that on different browsers, the text appears more, or less 'bolded' than in others. Kind of strange....i'll revise the font itself, as I can't even remember what prompted me to put everything in BOLDED text!? Sorry about that, I have no decent reason for having done it lol.

I'm glad you were able to be "absorbed" without knowing the characters beforehand! Thanks so much for the favorable comments!

Title (5/5)

The title explains well, it’s linked and entirely relevant to the story. Since it is short it’s very easy to remember, using a children’s game as a title gives somewhat an alluring and curious feel. Awesome!

Appearance (3/5)

Well, a bundle of string spells enough. Is the one with the glassy look Jin? (@_@ I still can’t distinguish them since I only knew about them last night when I re

Lol. I'm sorry, I was being very unclear.
It's like... I was captured during the story, but after I finished reading it, it doesn't leave me a vivid memory. It's nice at a moment, but not for long term.
I'm both underwhelmed and overwhelmed at the same time which I know is so weird haha
One: For the poster, err, did I write something wrong?? I meant more fade effects so that it blurs better.
Two: Oh crap. Is thaf so.... I'm sorry, I can't distinguish them so I got them messed up.
Three: About the Foreword, I wasn't so troubled so it's perfectly fine, it's just a suggestion. You have the right to choose.
Too many commas? Looool. I put lots of commas too XD
Once again, did I write it wrongly? Omg, I should edit. What I meant was that you used Trebuchet, and THAT is the font that I think isn't so suitable. And yes I agree, fonts in AFF .

:) yep, thanks for requesting, and it's refreshing to see someone that gives me feedback on my review as well and don't take it all in one swing without thinking further. I can totally tell that you're very experienced in writing. I apologise for my mistakes. Haha, you can always come back for a review, I look forward to your stories.

I officially protest AFF's lack of cool fonts :)
