I can't even express how I am /yearning/ for more of this story. It's addicting and interesting, so much so that I absolutely felt tortured when I finally caught up. I never want this story to end. I'm in love.
The main characters are a delight to read, and I think they have genuine chemistry, they suit each other well. The letters are always fun and engaging, witty and cute ^^ satisfying and warm. I find myself smiling with every chapter. This is an amazing read. Archie has my entire heart, I've let it go, he can do whatever with it, it's his now. Sigh
This has potential, however, the pacing is all over the place. The plot is beginning to form but not quite. I see where the author is trying to go, but it's hard to follow at times and gives me a headache. Still, I've seen worse so will be reading this to see what happens next. I have a feeling things will improve over time.
This story is something special. It's very easy to enjoy. I find myself constantly checking for updates because I'm so invested in the characters already. I really love this, and can't wait for the next chapter. The White Dragon Doctor (master) is so darn adorable ^^ I seriously can't help but love him. He's my favorite character here so I hope he doesn't reach that ill-fated end.
Raymond's character has indeed always been selfish. And we all can be a bit selfish, however, he is extremely egocentric, self absorbed and blinded by revenge. How easy it was for him to sacrifice others for personal gain is truly disgusting.
Also, Ray drugging Ian is way out of line as well. In any relationship, trust is needed to stay afloat. But I know, if the person I loved drugged me to devise and carry out an evil plan that involved my friends and colleagues, then, how could I ever trust someone like that again? Despite the love Ian has for Raymond, I'd prefer that he left him and pursued his dream in art. Sure, he got a head start with Raymond's connection, but Ray simply used him to move closer to nobility. So I have no qualms with Ian using Raymond in return. His name is already out there and he has clientele, so I believe he could make a living without the aid of Raymond.
At this point, I just...don't know how I feel about them being together anymore. Raymond's selfishness is a deal breaker for me.
Alright, this is hot. I think all the close ups of the eyes and where they touch one another is really intimate. Loving it.
