You got me crying fr . Absolutely incredible fic. Heart-wrenching, painful, but so wonderfully well-written. Now I must go and emotionally recover :)

Wow. The God's Greatest Secret is always so interesting and frustrating to me, and you really found an excellent way to exploit it into pain and emotions. Love it!

Author-san… I don’t even know where to start. All I know is that I’m a blubbering mess of emotions at the moment ahhhh. It’s so bittersweet and you wrote it so amazingly— the emotions, the feelings, the guilt, regret of both Yuki and YatoT_T it’s just so… heart wrenching if I were to describe it. The way that Yuki from the start resented Yato because he couldn’t ‘save hiyori’ (and the way that Yato kind of blamed himself towards the end), to a gradual acceptance and forgiveness. The way you portray their relationship is so raw— down to their deepest character. They way that Yato said right “right…” when

There was one particular part that really hit hard (I just absolutely adore this part) that you wrote:

At times like this, Yato wishes he wasn't the adult, the old one, the god. The one the children look up to for answers. It's okay when they dismiss him, when they think he's childish and stupid and hopeless, but when they remember that he knows more than they can imagine, that he's the one with the power to protect them and the knowledge to explain the world, the pressure is unthinkable. The truth is that he doesn't have all the answers and never has. Sometimes they seem to forget that he is a magatsukami, first and foremost—he is nobody's savior.

Wow. Just wow, author-san, this is when the waterworks came in. It’s so beautifully written and so raw— I don’t think I’ll ever find the words to describe just how raw, and beautiful this is. I don’t think I’ll ever stop and it fits his character so perfectly, in the story he is known as the “goofball” and “childish” character and sometimes it is forgotten that he’s someone who’s lived for centuries with knowledge and wisdom of someone that’s lived for a long time (even though sometimes, he doesn’t put it to use), but even then he still doesn’t know everything and feels responsible and the pressure of the one being the oldest (hence blaming himself), and the way that he would be willing to distance himself from Yuki to give him the space he needs even though it hurts him (T_T) to do so and even when he desperately tried to not release Yuki but when they were at shrine, he just resigned himself— because he wants what’s best for Yuki (even if it meant it Yuki wasn’t by his side), he’s a selfless, caring guy — I may have interpreted this wrong but you just wrote it all so tenderly and beautifully and I can’t thank you enough for that. It was a pleasure to read this fic and I love it (this won’t be the last time I’m going read it…) so thank you for writing author-san, may you have a great day (night?)!
