Chapter 16: Darling,
It was a beautiful roller-coaster, I did enjoyed it really much. You are super nice and super talented so you really deserved the lovely comments under this short story. Jin was an amazing Sin. My heart aches due to his death but it was beautiful and left my out of breath. Poor Humility. And that bastard lower demon! His dirty secret... aish. But on the other hand, I happy. Thanks to him Jin didn't become Lucifer, didn't lose his feelings etc. Ah, I cannot find more words. Sorry for this lame comment. I love you so much ♡
Have a nice day xx

Chapter 15: Darling,
Finally, we had the chance to see them in action (against each other, how excited!). It was fun. I enjoyed the whole chapter just like the previous ones. JIin and his princess make a good couple and the ending! I cannot imagine Humility's death. Jin won't kill her once again, I'm so sure right now. He is just like he used to be. He needs love and she loves him. Lovely yet tragical!
Have a nice day xx
Ps. I cannot believe that the next chapter will be the last, too. :/

Chapter 14: Darling,
Wow, Lucifer himself. Actually, I imagined him as a funny guy as well so I was totally satisfied when you described him. The dialogues in this chapter were my favourites and this whole situation is so frustrating and intense. He had to make her sin :( Frankly, I have a bed feeling about is. What if Humility will make him a not utterly sinful soul instead? Will he die in the arms of his love? Damn.
Have a nice day xx

Chapter 13: Darling,
Well, I think your story is a perfect medicine for my hangover because this day I was so tired I became tipsy over a fruit flavoured cider. It was like strawberry.
Hmm, Jin's sudden decision took me by surprise. I didn't dare to think that he would like to kill Humility in one way or another. I mean come on! Please don't be so cruel and love her (haha.) I hope he won't find that other way (maybe a relic could kill her actually like that hairpin that would be able to kill Greed just because it's a meaningful object from his past). I really don't know what to think.
I'm so scared right now because I accidentally saw a few comments about the last chapter and I already know that your ending will be epic. Please don't kill them both :'(
Have a nice day xx

Chapter 12: Darling,
Wow, wow, wow. Even though I knew lots of thingd about your story, you managed to surprise me. So that's why Lust's hunter looked for Pride. It's all make sense now. Wonderful.
Jin's and Humility's reactions were amazing. I did enjoyed them. They were passionate and intense. Like an italian drama, really. And this ending! Just like a little boy when he couldn't find the right words. (Sorry for my English, I'm a bit drunk right now but I felt that I have to continue this story in the way back home in the train).
Have a nice day xx

Chapter 11: Darling,
Omg, the last part of the chapter was so cute that I'm already in love with the present. I hope Jin's reaction will be flawless or at least huge. Oh, and I'm so curious about why my little virtue waited so long with this meeting. I wish I shouldn't start to dress up right now. What a pity!
Have a nice day ♡

Chapter 10: Darling,
I'm kinda sad because of Jin's point of view when it comes to his previous life but I think it's normal. Otherwise, he doesn't act like a real demon. Speaking of which, that certain sentence hurt my pride. Poor little demons who fell in love in their stories. I hope Jin will taste this sweet feeling sooner or later and he will actually change his mind. They are not pathetic :')
Since I know the plot twist I cannot wait to read the next chapter. You are amazing ^^
Have a nice day xx

Chapter 9: Darling,
First of all, thank you so much. I'm not so sure of that how much information you have but the writing part was my most successful part of all (so thank you so much, I believe that I couldn't make it without the Seoulmate page or this collab. These things helped me a lot.
However, this chapter. Well, it was like a summary but I liked it oh so much. I'm so proud of Jin. (can I say something like that?!) He is an excellent Sin and oh... I just realized that Tae is older than him. What a shame they never had the chance to meet. They would be a great duo. ^^ I cannot wait to see what's coming. I know you already uploaded the whole story but I made an oath not long ago and it's already past midnight so I go to sleep.
Have a nice day xx

Chapter 8: Darling,
I'm so sorry for being late once again. I want you to know that I never abandoned your story just because Jin became a whole new person. It was his destiny. The curse of being one of the most wicked Sins. His story was cute than cruel. You did broke my heart with Myungeun's death. Really? Was it necessary? Poor souls. At least, Jin realized he did loved her. I hope they will have a new chance in the future (present) and they will live with it. ^^
Have a nice day xx
