Title: Fairy Tales Lie
I'd been wondering if anyone would ever write a 'Kanan didn't die' fic (I've even been contemplating one of my own), but -this-, the way it happened, with Gojyo & Hakkai (finally *lol*) getting time to be together & then this happens... Gah. I can't -wait- to read the next chapter & see where you take this. And I'm looking forward to seeing everyone's favorite monkey! *lol* ^___^
Author's Response: Apparently, there is a Kanan-didn't-die fic on this website, titled "Delta". In case you're interested. I'm rather excited about your reaction to my Goku, personally. I do love him so. ^_^

the twist itself is good..but the thing I'm not so sure would be whose version to believe...so you see i am myself going down the same road of thought as gojyo is...which is why it is believable
though true what gojyo thinks of hakkai's accounts of that night does seem to have an ethereal quality about them as the why did she wait two months i believe if not to wait for rescue..but then finding it close at hand why did she decide to end it all. she must have known what it would do to poor gonou.
but if the memories seem so real, so either they are real or someone must have played with his mind then...
actually the possibilities are endless when you think about it this way...of course the only snag being the all wise all seeing god/dess and the sanbutsushin...who should have known the true case of things...
although there again we could say that se was only doing so to save all a big headache...or not meant to interfere as it was fated that things turn out the way they did.
and here again the possibilities are endless.
however..the way you have kanan recount her side...its all kind of up in the air as to whether she is the real deal or not...to glib..too rehearsed...and she (real or otherwise) is definitely hiding something...
in the end i would be inclined to believe that gojyo (and myself) would have more faith in someone i have known for years than a shade of the past which may or may not be real...and after being through the first arc of the story gojyo should know better than anybody about trusting anything other than his faith in hakkai and himself and his own gut instinct.
you may want to take a look at a fic archived here "Delta" by Mistress Renet. that one also deals with Kanan coming back, although in a different context.
thank you for asking my thoughts on this its nice! i bet you got a little more than you bargained for...sorry if i got a little carried a way.
and on another note... i have every faith in your writing and thought capabilities that whatever you throw at us...it will be delicious and well thought out, plausible and wonderful. oh and i'm off to find mmorg now....
i missed that bit! hehehe ^_~! ok! ok ! i'm going already....
Author's Response: I don't think that Gojyo would ever trust Kanan wholly over Hakkai as this story goes, for all the reasons that you gave--if nothing else, he never even knew her, and he's known Hakkai for years and knows that he can trust him implicitly. I'd like to go into your theories about which story makes more sense, but that would involve spoilers for future sections of the fic, so I must keep my mouth shut for the moment. ^^; I do appreciate that you have some faith in me, because most people who've reviewed this have said "I think you're batshit crazy, but I'll follow this story just to see what the hell you think you're doing". And that's rather nerve-wracking. ^^;;;;

i soo love it when you put these two through the wringer. you write it out so well, and the characterisation that go with it is just how i think the poor redhead will react. the thought processes that you have him go through are very logical indeed. nice.
Author's Response: Why angst is so much fun and easy to do, I don't know. The next couple of chaps, like I said, are going to be a shade more lighthearted--because Goku is my comic relief aeroplane. I'd like to know, if you don't mind, what you think about the twist itself, and whether you find it to be plausible or not.

Gojyo and Hakkai can’t seem to get a break. You were dead on (at least in my view) with what Gojyo would think and how he would handle the so-called “Kanan” showing up. You write Gojyo very well.
Author's Response: No, they can't, because I'm a whore. ._.;;; Gojyo's my favorite character, and I think it shows in the sense that I write him (imo) better than the others, but it also doesn't show, because I torture him all the time in fanfiction. Anyhow, thank you for reading (and for your patience with this story; I swear I'm not crazy).
