This was an awesome chapter, maybe the best in this fic (that's saying something because the fic as a whole is really good). Mai being mean to Bakura was funny, especially about imagining Bakura jumping on Ryou haha.
I was hoping that something would happen between Mai and Joey when she held his hand and lifted him up off the couch. You really described her emotions well, so much so that I felt them myself as I was reading this. C'mon Mai, that was a golden opportunity! Joey is single, just broke up with his girlfriend, he's at your home, and offered his hand to you.
As you can tell from my previous comments, I've already read Chapter 5 but I'm re-reading this story because it's my favorite Joey x Mai fic and I was hoping for Chapter 6. I know it's been a long time but I hope you finish this story.

I know I'm double-posting, but I wanted to point out a few more things. I loved the suspense when Mai is considering whether to tell Joey of her interest for him, whether it be in her apartment when they're practicing for their play, or when she's telling him that she's going to LA. I wanted to kick Mai for each time she chickened out of confessing to Joey. After she chickened out of inviting Joey to travel with her to LA, Mai tells herself that she should do what makes her happy rather than what's good for her image (Serenity drives this point home to her later in this chapter). It was a really good life lesson, not just for Mai for me and many other people. I got inspiration from that.
I also enjoyed Bakura's humorous situation. Anyways, I hope you continue this story. I want to see the end and hope Mai and Joey hook up.

I love this story! Not a fan of the Serenity x Seto relationship but I am glad to see a Mai x Joey story. There are so many indicators of interest between Mai and Joey in the anime that it makes so much sense for them to get together. I hope you finish your story!

Hehe... Bakura's so lost in his ways it's hilarious when you think about it! :P
Anyhow; Happy you finally updated! *throws candy at you* Good little author! *pats head* ^.^
Liking Mai; she almost considered saving her body for Joey. Hahaha! AS IF! :D But she considered it, for the half second it was worth ^-^ Booyah!
And Jou's adorable. *hugs him* And he's single. Aww. Mai's gotta work her womanly charm on him and seduce the crap out of him. ^.^ yay!
Serenity's comment about Kaiba being pretty pathetic was hilarious! Loving their friendship here (Mai's and Serenity's that is) ^.^ Eventhough I am in no way a supporter of Kaiba/Serenity pairing, I'll just keep the thoughts of wanting to snatch Kaiba away to myself :P
And spelling wise... didn't catch any error, so if you have any they're probably not so apparent. :D
As far as constructive criticism goes...be wary of the usage of the first person point of view. I am in no way telling you to change POV since you now have chosen this one, and it'd only be weird to change, but like I said; be wary. It can get pretty awkward with it, especially in description and such. So just giving you a heads-up.
Now, update dang it! :P

lol loved the old lady part. Poor Bakura. =) You have good music taste. I love Evanescence. And I think I must've sung My Immortal about 100 times by now. ^_^;; Anyhoos good luck to Mai and Bakura on their love problems! You're not going to update Complete Chaos soon? =( You make me sad. I'm going to go off and sulk somewhere.
~Toodles!~

Lol, that's me ^^. And that's probably why only a few people read and review that story...:P I love your story! The BakuraxRyou part...lol, I feel sorry for Bakura, though that may be the point of it.

Good job on chapter 3! Give yourself a pat on the back! I'm glad you're writing a fic about Mai, since she's so underrepresented in fanfiction. As you might've guessed, she's my favorite character, maybe because she reminds me of myself, or maybe just because I wish I could be more like her, and less shy around people. I always hide my true self from people, because I'm afraid they'll judge me...now I'm rambling!anyways, update soon!
