I have a feeling that Stasy_SD_14 only comments to get first comment. How retarded.

Yay! More explenations accompanied by..... those darn questions! I can tell Camael has been planning this for a long time. He is very patient and wise. In a stupid way. Just like all the others that want immortality or to rule the world. XP Heh.

*nods* as Astri said.... I think he is an Iris. I had thought of that.... but not really hoped. This is... a great chapter. *sigh* Poor abused charries. Write a vacation story or draw a picture of them on vaca!

Phoenex360Gorillaz on September 6, 2007, 10:16:34 AM (Chapter: 47)

lolz.... cherub? No thankies! =D But... I was hoping that he would admit his love to our unsung hero. However unreal his love is! *sigh* I really wanted him to kiss Valkyre! Hmph. It would... be a better relationship for him than the one with Iris, I'm sad to say.

And, the opposite thing. Were you hinting that Valkyre is half demon? I had my suspicions. ~.^ Hehe.... I'm happy that someone got their throne back about a year ago. hehe.

=) That Asher and Phelan love part made ma smile. I love it! A vampire and a wharewolf.... and the circumstances.... like a romantic tragedy. Fave story EVER! You should have another reader soon... as soon as I can convince her that the m/m isn't explicit. XD

XOXOXOXOXOXOXP Huggles, kisses, and funny faces to you!

Yeah, there's no explicit/even really really strong yaoi here. Just guys, because apparently I've only got three girls in this whole story, two of which die rather abruptly. XD;
Ooh, you're so nice~ again, thanks for all your wonderful sweet comments~ :3

Oh yes. You wouldn't happen to know how to get the lines off of notebook paper after you scan an image, would you? -.-' Then you get to see MY crap!

Phoenex360Gorillaz on September 5, 2007, 2:25:21 PM (Chapter: 32)

*sigh* Even though he's *shudders* spidery, I still like Corryn. I feel really bad for him. And Iris.... he can't die. This is gonna be one of the stories that ends bitter-sweetly, right? *I'm gonna have to find another word that means sigh* If he really loved Iris, he'd let him do what he wante without intervening, unless he was intervening with something in his heart other that sealfishnes. *grumble* I just noticed that throughout this entire chpter, I've been drinking my own blood. My god... I'm completely dilusional. But it does taste good....

Phoenex360Gorillaz on September 5, 2007, 1:58:37 PM (Chapter: 30)

Oh gosh.... now it's getting deep and twisting around the corners of your very imagination! The plot is getting so much more complicated with every word; every sentance spoken in the mind or outloud. This truly should be published and sold in stores. ^.^ I'm practicing writing my thoughts out. What do you think? Tehe. This is what I think, though. Just more poetic than the modern sound of slang. This, this is my faveorite chapter so far.

Phoenex360Gorillaz on September 5, 2007, 1:45:45 PM

Phoenex360Gorillaz on September 5, 2007, 1:45:45 PM (Chapter: 29)

I really hate bugs. With a passion. Especially dead bugs as they crunch beneath your fingers or toes.... *hyperventolates* I like Corryn! ^.^ Hehe. Yaoi rape! Lolz. Brilliand chappie, by the way. Loved the details. You know you're good when you make me wrap myself tight in a blanket and cringe, cringe, cringe! *Attacks like a rabid animal* Dran you and your smexy (lol) spiders of doom!

Phoenex360Gorillaz on September 5, 2007, 1:26:15 PM

Uh... how old is Iris? Or... how old was he modled after. XD Oddness... but I'll take your word in saying that it'll explain itself. ^.^ YAYZ!

Trinity_Fire on September 5, 2007, 6:37:58 AM (Chapter: 5)

Ahahaha, thanks. XD; Finally, you've hit the half-jewel in this pile of slush. XD; Iris was my most recent work (actually, it's pretty darn old itself, but then again, I've worked on it for over a year, haha.)
And I'm sorry, but it's just a dream. Don't worry about it too much. ;) (It'll all explain itself later, haha.)

Anyway; sorry to make you slog through a million chapters, but if you do stick through with Iris, I will be ever-so happy~ (there are parts I don't like to this story either, haha, but overall... It's not one I cringe at, haha.)
Thanks a lot for your comments! My gosh, you're so unbelievably nice. :3 *glompsquishhug*

Yes, chapters for Corryn. If Iris were ever a craps-ness like anime or somesuch, CorrynValkyre would be a canon pairing. :> Or Un-canon. Heh. (<--is officially mentally unstable as of now)

GAWD DAMMIT I GOTTA FINISH IRIS NAO BEFORE I GO TO CANADA ON TRIP~ I'm so chocked-full of summer programs after, I'll NEVER get the chance. D:

Hah. I really liked it. Your descriptions are my favourite part of your writing. Your imagery is so beautiful.

I know how you feel. I have a comic I want to finish befote I leave tomorrow, but I have five pages to go and four out of five black pens dead. So ... yeah. I can try. I can pull an all-nighter ... I guess ...

AHH, and I'm going on vacation and will be stranded without internets in the wilderness~! Damn you, shootty timing!

Didn't Valkie's eyes turn red? Am I just being stupid? Well, I think we've already confirmed that, but anyway ... I don't think I could write that much per week. But then .. I haven't been inspired to write recently. Wow, I'm so glad I checked. I have a knack for checking right when they come out. I must be a psychic.

But you shouldn't rush yourself. The only problem is, sometimes if you don't you never finish. So ... I dunno, I'm rambling, and I need to shut up.

Ah, I don't mind so much. Rambling is all right. (<--rambles too much herself XD )

Um, about Valkyre's eyes.... :tilts head: It was kinda only a... urr, it's a demon thing. XD;
But since he's not a full-blooded demon, his eyes don't stay red. Just like with Iris; it just makes their eyes turn red for a little while. :> Meepits! Sorry. It's a terrible detail, huh? I'd never actually thought about it too much myself, just let it play out that way... Oh well.
More work to be improved on. XD

Well, I hope you have fun on your internet-stranded journey, wherever it may be. (I'm going to Canada in a week or so, so I can't quite keep up with updates either. XD )

Trinity_Fire on June 15, 2007, 8:05:22 AM (Chapter: 63)

XD; R-really?? I never figured it to be so...
Would you recall, way back when I started Iris... Oooh, I could WORK then! I had such inspirations~ *_*
With Nocte, too. Oooh. :shudder:
Nocte went down the drain. Y'know what sucks, though? I had a whole Nocte continuum plotted out in my head. It woulda been full o' shoot and hawtness and OMFG drama. :D
...But it doesn't look like it'll be happening. Because I look back on Nocte and I don't see how I could ever figure that out properly, but I NEED things to generally happen that way for the Nocte II or whatever shoot to work out right, buuuut~ :ramble cut off:

Anyway. Yeah. I'll be givin' you as big doses of Iris as I can!! :D To be honest, I don't think it'll take more than, like, 10 chapters tops tops to finish it off. It'll pro'ly only take like 3-7 more, to be honest. Most likely MUCH, MUCH LESS.
YES FINAL BATTLE LET'S GO KILL YGGDRASIL YES
XD
I-I mean, urr, yah, um... >_< Stuff like that.

Ahhh much smex is planned.
...No not really I'm sorreh. D: No time for pron.
If you wanted a pron with Valkie-baby and Iris-kun, it'd have to be right before this interlude with Corryn and all. :3

Nicely done thier really isn't much bad even about this especially since i loved the first chapter. I see u have like 60 chapters and it would kinda help if u like kinda shrinked them into like 20 instead of 60...its alot of loading for me -.- anyway the story good. Idc what its about but u sure know how to work into a nice prologue I have to say ur detial is impressive and ur chr's are one of kind truly. This i'd say would have to be one of the only stories on FanArt other then the writing i set aside time for that i will actually read through

Figured i'd actually ask someone i thought who was equal or better where they get thier inspiration to write from. you know names all that. But then again you haven't read any of my stories now have u xD

It was for DefyDeath_DefyMe. She's been an amazing friend to me, and for her birthday, as I'm not too good an artist, I decided to write her a story. :> She used a penname 'Iris,' so I partially named the story after her, and also after the one song 'Iris' by GooGooDolls, which is where the original inspiration for the characters and loose plotline came from. :3

I'd like to check out your stuff too sometime, since you're so nice!! But it might take me a while to get around to it~ I'm sorry, but I'm juggling a busy high school life at the same time, and I've got finals soon, and SAT tests!

So, I'll try to drop by when I can, okay?

Hmm.....I wonder why Iris is crying? Why?

So many unanswered questions....

But on the plus side, I've finally found out the truth behind Camael, Valkyre.....all those missing links.

And another kiss.....that's a good bonus.

But to be honest, the few chapters weren't as nice as the first ones. However, I don't blame you. You are a very busy person, and I know how that can affect creativity. ^.^

You have all the time to improve. I'm in no hurry: I have quite a lot to do as well. Besides, those chapters were still good: they just need improvement. And you've given me some ideas for my own story-in-the-making, tentatively titled Aion Teleos/Aeon Prophecy[/i] (which title I want is still a mystery.) But alas, I digress. ^^;

I will be waiting for the next chapters, whenever they come. Good luck on your exams, TF!

Huh, so they haven't been as good, ne? I-I'm not mad or anything- but why are they worse?? I really want to find where I've begun to get weaker, and see if I can't fix it and make my writing better again. Do you have any particular things you wanna point out to me? I'm open to crits and suggestions, any time!!
You're so nice, and very honest. Thanks a ton for that, it really means a lot to me. :)
You're free to tell me what you think might not be too good about Iris, and I'll try to do my best to fix it! (Although, I won't be revising the whole story 'till I'm done, which should hopefully be soon XD; )
Thank you very much!!

Oooh, and a story from you is an interesting prospect. I hope to see it up sometime!! :)

Heh....maybe I need to run over the story again. I was tired when I read it last. I musta lost interest and got bored 'cos I read 'em in a marathon session. I'll have to go over it again. I'll comment after reading them, only it'll be on a few lower chapters. Maybe 7 chapters per day. Or 10...

Sorry 'bout that. I'm a lazy idiot, yes I am. ^^;;


Oh, and about that story...I'm still trying to get a decent start, but let me tell you this.

It's got shounen-ai. (Or yaoi: whichever term you use.) And angels. I put the 2 together... hehhehheh...Can anyone say "evil lovechild"? XD

Oh, I am such a blasphemous heretic...heh heh heh...

I must be mad. Second night in a row ... and I still want to draw more. Dx There are things I should be drawing, and homeworks I should be doing ... but I'm just messing around. Like playing with the lettering of 'Iris' so it reads 'Corryn' when you turn it upside-down. Wow, I'm a nerd ...

Yay, more Iris! I shouldn't still be awake, but I was on here anyway submitting artworks, and thought to myself, 'what the hell, I'll check Iris' and here it is! I'm so happy! :DD

Though when I saw the title, I was scares for a second. I thought you were saying this was THE END, and I didn't see how you could finish it so quickly. But I'm glad it isn't over yet!

I hate it when I forget my plots. I'm writing, and I think '... dammit, I knew something else was supposed to happen here, but where did it go?'

Was this the first time you used Caerwyn's name? I'd like to say one last thing before I shut up: I really love your choice in names. But I should stop rambling, because I can barely go a word without typoes, and it's almost one am.

Astri on April 11, 2007, 11:17:41 AM (Chapter: 50)

Ah. Okay. So I went a little overboard. He wasn't made the same way...but still, very interesting that Camael says that Iris was made by the world, whereas Valkyre is "man-made," when Iris was made in the lab (I think?) and Valkyre was born. How sad, his story... oTT_TTo

I loved how you compared the laughter to a sepia photograph, by the way. I thought that was awesome.

And I think you can still get away with calling Valkyre an angel. Demons are fallen angels, right? Tainted angels, but still angels. So he could still be an angel in reference. Or a dark angel, or something.

You could even call him a paradox or juxtaposition or something, but that seems kinda dehumanizing, so maybe that's not great.

Ahhh...a massive weight of curiosity has been lifted from my shoulders. I finally understand so much better! ^.^ Bravo, Trinity, for an absolutely spectacular unveiling that isn't even the story's climax! X3

I think he's natural-made. (lol) I assume. So. Kinda.
Yeah, it's a bit of a mix-up there. I realized while I was trying to write it all out. DX
Anywho, that's all, I think. Glad the big thing is out. Now, there's really not so much left to go over... :3

Hmm. It was obvious Camael would be back in this one from the name of the chapter...but still, what a surprise. Camael and Asher, huh? Runes for "seal," "obsolete," "refrain"? Hum. Seems like Camael has some control over Asher with those, from the glowyness and pain part...wonder why Asher is cooperating with him...?

But perhaps now, some mysteries about Valkyre and ESPECIALLY about Camael will finally be answered! *wags tail*

I've been suspecting the whole demon thing for a little while...but I still don't understand it all...unless...

OH MY BLOODY FLIPPING INFERNAL DESSERTIAN GODDESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I GET IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Valkyre is "Iris"! He's another prototype! One of the former Irises! No wonder he's drawn to Iris! And he's an angel and a demon combined in one! He was made the same way! That explains everything!!! AND CAMAEL USED THE PEN/ RUNES TO BIND THE DEMONIC PART!!!!!!

It all makes sense!!!!!! Oh my god!!!!!! I never expected that!!!!!!

(Watch, I'm actually completely wrong and it's something different. But...holy crap!!!!!!!!!!)

Dragon_Buster on April 5, 2007, 1:43:02 AM (Chapter: 21)

Another comment here. I had to read a few more chapters before reviewing.

As I read, I can notice the development of the relationship between Valkyre and Iris. It's grown from animosity, to mere tolerance, to love. As the relationship changes, so do the characters. That's a good thing.

You managed to give me a tense feeling as I read about Valkyre's capture, escape (which I thought would never happen), and eventual rescue of his beloved Iris. You managed to make me FEEL the story- a sure trademark of your ability.

Now, we have the kiss scene. It's short, but sweet, with more of your unmatchable metaphors thrown in for good measure.

Overall, I think this story just keeps getting better and better. I shall continue reading it......but not now, as I'm starting to get lazy again...... *is very disappointed in himself*

.............

O_o Oh no.....

I can't believe it....I'm getting addicted to yaoi! Oh noes! The Yaoiwarp.....is overtaking me! It is.....a guiltfully good pain! Gaah......

GET OUT OF MY HEAD, FOUL YAOI-DAEMON!! RETURN TO THE E-MATERIUM FROM WHENCE THOU CAME!!

Yaoi-Daemon: NEVAR! Besides, doesn't it feel good to shed all your concerns about masculinity?

Me: Gaaaahhhh!! Can't.......resist....temptation! Alright.....fine.....I give up....You win.

Yaoi-Demon: HAHAHA! See? No one can resist the temptation!

I've read the story as a guest, and I've decided to revisit the story.

The rumors of your skill, as I see, are true. This story is simply amazing.

First of all, you managed to get off to a good start with the setting and opening story laid out well, without giving away too much. The ability to write the first scenes well is crucial, as it maintains the reader's interest.

Secondly, your characters are very believable. Okay, so you wouldn't see a black-winged angel and a boy who is "eveything and nothing" in real life (except in cosplay XD ), but the "people" behind them are very real. That's a trademark of good fiction.

Thirdly, the interactions between characters are good and fleshed out. This is also a good sign, as it means your characters aren't "cardboard" characters.

Finally, your descriptions. Normally, ornate descriptions are not too good, but yours transcends "overblown" description. It's actually a joy to read, not a tedious bunch of daed wood.

Overall, I think you've written a good piece of fiction. I have yet to see where this goes, but I think it will be marvelous. You really ought to publish your work: there are many who want to see a good tale right now. *favs and hands you another trophy with your name on it*

I shall continue to review as I read it. Until then, keep writing.

See you around.

That's HYSTERICAL for an entirely inexplicable reason.

But so...not opposites touching, but fellows. Which squeezes through another clue about Valkyre...or, more accurately, about what he might be...

Hmm. Yet still certain pieces remain missing. I'm so intrigued!!! What is going on?!?!

O.o Corryn killed Eire??? That was kinda unexpected...

Glad that he's returned, though. He's creepy, but you gotta love him X3 Poor psycho spider-baby...

Valkyre's really stuck on options, isn't he? When your only alliance options are between Corryn and Raguel, one really has quite a problem...

Astri on March 30, 2007, 4:31:57 AM (Chapter: 44)

WAAAAAAAAAIT a sec. Zombie-thingie had two-colored eyes. Eire had two-colored eyes. Raguel has two-colored eyes.

Coincidence...? --.--

And so Eire GOT ENERGY BACK. Okay. I thought it was something along those lines...Eire so much stronger and Rheis so much weaker...

And finally--what is Iris for? What is Iris for...?

Why would a lab go through the trouble of splicing together so many different species into one being?

Why would it be so important to so many people to possess that being as their own?

Is it something that being can do? Something that being represents? Or something that being can cause something else to do?

Confoozles... @.@

Ahhhhhh!!! You're confusing ME, and I'M the author!!! XD;
Um, um, did I write something wrong??? According to my little scratch sheets of Iris notes (XD) Eire shouldn't have... different colored eyes. ...No, I don't think so...
Um, um! Sorry, but, yeah, I think you're connecting more lines than I have/do! XD;
Um, Raguel merely has two differently-colored eyes because of his half-blood-ness. ...somehow. (this was poorly-put together, I don't really like that detail... >>;)

I think (from what I can remember, lol!) Eire and Rheis should both have black eyes.

And sorry about the no-Iris-giga-power thing. You readers all seemed to be expecting him to explode or something! XD;
Hm, note to self, make lots of notes to self. XC

Anyway, thanks!! I'm so glad you're still reading Iris, and the influx of komments is always quite appreciated. :3
Don't confuse yourself too much!!!!!! XC

Much <3

Spider! Corryn is SO being foreshadowed ^.^

Hmm. It seems, though, that if zombification truly is what's going on, then only Eire has been zombified. Rheis still seems normal. How weird must that be, to be connected like that for so long, and then not only lose the connection but lose the mind of your sister entirely?

For that matter, why does Eire know what's going on with Iris...?

So many questions...SO...MANY...QUESTIONS...

O.o Eire and Rheis have become like THAT thing?! Did they die?! Is that why the cable broke?! Are they zombies now?!

Iris sensed that other thing too, before it was there...

And what on earth was that wing-thing she did to Iris?

(Off on a tangent, having mentioned Iris--we almost got to see his true powers! It ALMOST was Eire's fatal mistake! Dang!)

That wing-thing is perplexing the hell out of me...it's like she did something to the angel and demon parts of him...but what, and almost more importantly, how???

AHHH!!! How did I survive not being able to read this for so long?!?!

Astri on March 30, 2007, 3:52:43 AM

Astri on March 30, 2007, 3:52:43 AM (Chapter: 42)

Oh...CRAP.

THAT'S not good...

I knew those two would be back...but something so diabolical! --.-- And now with the cable gone...? It seems like Rheis has given a part of his power to Eire...I'm not sure Raguel would be able to hold his own against him otherwise, whereas Eire now seems WAY powerful...

But that evil tearstone-breaking might be her fatal mistake...

What a time to get back into Iris, huh?! Right into uber-action! ^.^

I'm going to tackle this story if it's the last thing I do! (Dark_Alchemist told me how awesome it was and so I simply have to read it, of course.) But sheesh, first chapter and I already want to read more! And she's right, your descriptions are like HO'SNAP amazing.

Oh my gosh. This was so fabulous. My favourite paragraph simply had to be:

But he could hear nothing. A muffled silence, like watching a movie spliced in half, everything still spinning in slow motion, but the sound gone, replaced by deathly silence, echoing nothing on nothingness.

That was so vibrant, so visual, so auditory... I'm overusing the italics, I know, but gosh, I'm just in love with that little portion and I don't know why.

I must agree. Detail is good, and you should not ever lose it. I really like when I can read something and picture it as the author did, and it's the details that let me. But ya, getting back to the story.

I was right about the tattoos. xD

Dark_Alchemist on January 31, 2007, 8:26:54 AM (Chapter: 34)

I like how he uses the wings to fight. I've never seen wings used quite like that in writing before, but I really like it. And I'm also glad Corryn didn't die, because he's a really neat charactere and it would be a shame to kill off someone like that ...

Oh, and about the wings. Mentioned it before, but fighting with wings comes from real-life experiences.
Ever been hit by a goose wing before?? It hurts. A lot. And leaves quite the bruise. DX

Dark_Alchemist on January 31, 2007, 8:05:32 AM (Chapter: 32)

I kind of expected something like that, with the mixed blood, but it still makes me sad to read it, mostly hearing Iris say it like that. It must be painful, if you were all those different controdictions, I can see how that would tear him apart. But anywho, nice chapter.

Dark_Alchemist on January 31, 2007, 7:36:46 AM

Dark_Alchemist on January 31, 2007, 7:36:46 AM (Chapter: 29)

I love Corryn and te spiders. I think spiders are cool, but whenever I come in contact with a real-life spider I just sort of freeze up. My best friend since forever is a huge arachnophobe, and I caught it from her. But I love spiders in fiction. I am convinced that arachnophobia is like a disease, because it's definately contagious.

Dark_Alchemist on January 31, 2007, 7:00:06 AM

Dark_Alchemist on January 31, 2007, 7:00:06 AM (Chapter: 25)

I like how every now and then you write from Iris' perspective. You can really see the difference in Valkyre and Iris' thought processes. Valkyre thinks more in words, Iris in images, more observant and in the moment, not so much worrying about the future.

Hmm ... I hope I'm making sense.

Dark_Alchemist on January 31, 2007, 6:38:07 AM

Dark_Alchemist on January 31, 2007, 6:38:07 AM (Chapter: 21)

Yaaayyy very good. It made me laugh when Valkyre got in the bath with Iris. I probably shouldn't find it amusing, but ... I do. xD;; But I love this chapter. It's so pretty. I should shut up, seeing as I'm just rambling. Must get back to the story now ...

Dark_Alchemist on January 30, 2007, 1:03:11 PM

Crossbreed is interesting, to say the least, but it's kinda awkward to call Valkie-baby that just during descriptions. I mean, I could see it for part of dialogue, but the hard part is getting out a name to sound right during just details. XD

Character recycling. And the lab. My twin radar is going off...

Or maybe it’s Corryn. But the twins have been gone for a while...somehow I think it is them. They shall return!

Anyways. This is an interesting chapter simply by virtue of the fact that (GASP!) we have now seen...THE LAB. However, what might possibly be even more interesting than THE LAB is this odd reaction in Valkyre because of it...what is it? What is it with the lab and Camael and Valkyre that stirs up this bizarrity?? It’s driving me nuts! There are so few clues, only tantalizing confusions...

And no kidding, it’s cool how far you’ve gotten. In celebration of your new chapters, and hitting chapter 40, and just because I haven’t done it for a while...

SHOWER OF LOVE AND DEVOTION!!!!! ^.^ ^.^ ^.^

You deserve it! ^.^

Oh, and a note here Astri... it wasn't the actual labs that affected Valkyre, but merely the darkness and the sudden spark of light, of the stuff with Camael and candlelight.
So Valkyre's not directly connected to the lab.
Not in that sense, at least.

I just found it fun to tease. ^_~
Ch. 42 will be posted on the 29th! :D Because I luv you all so much. <3

Chapter 40! WOOT! Well, YOOT anyways. You Own Other Team! Rah rah!

I think my favorite part of this chapter is the description of the glass of water in the very first paragraph. It’s masterly. Yes, I know it’s just water, but still! It is MASTERLY water! Very special, the perspiration trickling down to sink into the cracks and splinters…it’s quite possibly one of the best descriptions of such an ordinary thing I’ve ever seen.

In a way, it’s sort of like the story itself. Iris and Valkyre are sliding down, trying to get away from the WAY too many problems on their backs but ever falling farther, farther down, heading towards a darkness that will swallow them up like the wood of the table swallows the water unless they can halt their descent and save themselves first.

You Know You Like Iris Too Much When...you compare it to a glass of water. I think I’ll stop while I’m behind...

Corryn Corrine. This death was just as sad as Corrine’s, and just like Corrine, Corryn will be back. That’s good ^.^ That makes me happier. Corryn was…such an unusual, interesting character. To me, anyways.

And I must admit, I find your use of Valkyre’s wings as weapons massively interesting. I don’t think I’ve ever seen anybody do that before…

Trinity_Fire on August 25, 2006, 11:41:04 AM

Trinity_Fire on August 25, 2006, 11:41:04 AM (Chapter: 34)

Ah, about the wings weapons thing...

Have you ever been hit by the wing of a goose? A big ol' white goose?? 8D

It hurts like hell. I had a bruise on my shin for a week.

And if you get hit by a goose or, say, a swan's [swans are quite ferocious really] wing in the head, good chance is, you'll get knocked unconscious.

Now, a certain being gets a wingspan about 5x that of a goose's... you think he won't use those to his advantage?? ^_~

I learn a lot through experience. :D Painful experience.

Siren and, of course, were. That makes at least ten species so far, not counting humans and the weird thing-that-was-not-Iris. Oh, and dragons! So eleven. Wait, was serpent a separate species? Is that twelve? And lamia and centaur, thirteen and fourteen! The mystery thickens ever more…

By the way, I really like the names Eire and Rheis. Very cool names. And you do action sequences quite well. Some people…how can I put this politely…don’t. Like Mercedes Lackey and Kelley Armstrong (my favorite authoress ^.^) I love them dearly, but action sequences? Not their thing. You, on the other hand, seem at home in nearly any sequence. Very nice! Continuation! Continuation!!

Trinity_Fire on August 23, 2006, 5:44:30 AM

Trinity_Fire on August 23, 2006, 5:44:30 AM (Chapter: 27)

Oh, yeah, and a note on that, Astri.

I guess no one ever picked it up, but there was something special about Eire and Rheis's names. 8D
Canyaguessit?

DETAIL IS GOOD!!! Hmph. Detail is always good! You can never have too much detail.

(still has too much detail in his stuff)

Yeah…well… --.-- Nyeah! Anyways! If the tattoos are seals, then I guess it’s more like the opposite of the angel transformation. Which I think is a good thing…right? Probably. So bat and wolf, snake and hawk, horse and fish (I’m assuming)…And now the new tattoo question arises. What was it REALLY that Camael did? And why? Is he perhaps responsible for Valkyre’s wings being black? Hmm. So many questions…

AND NO MORE CHAPTERS TO ANSWER THEM YET!!!!! AAAAAAAAHHHH!!!

Well, maybe that’s a good thing…I should really probably go to bed now…but only knowing that you’ll be writing more of this! It’s like having to put a book down before I’m finished with it; I can’t stand not knowing!

Please write more; you are an excellent writer ^.^

Astri on August 5, 2006, 7:36:22 PM

Astri on August 5, 2006, 7:36:22 PM (Chapter: 38)

Useless, perhaps. Yummy, most certainly. Asher and Phelan? THAT I was not expecting. Confusions in the mind of Valkyre…more questions about him, now that I’ve realized how little is known. Iris; what is changing? The balance in his blood? Something to do with his demonic side?

I’m sorry, my comments are turning into an endless list of the questions I have. But you have to understand, I love asking questions about stuff I read. I love speculating about the answers and trying to predict what’s going to happen (even though I’m often wrong ^.^; ) So the fact that I’m doing this means I really like it.

I do really like it. And because I haven’t done it for a while and you deserve it…

So, was that what was bothering Iris at the end of the last one? Hmm. Raguel is shaping up to be more villainous by the moment…it’s a real shame. I kind of liked Ayra. I have this soft spot for harpies and nagas/ medusas/ lamias/ snake-women...what can I say?

Well, now I have no idea where this is going. What will happen next, only the gods and Trinity_Fire know…so, I’d better read on and find out, yes? ~.^

Hmm. Asher, huh? That was unexpected, I must say. I was expecting more of the failure-Irises or something…and then it was Asher, and I was like, “Oops. Hmm, maybe it’s gotten too late for my sensors to work properly…”

They’re definitely down here, because I have no idea what almost kind of sort of bothered Iris right at the end…

You just keep me guessing, don’t you? (Which is a good thing, by the way ~.^)

Astri on August 5, 2006, 7:34:33 PM (Chapter: 35)

Detail is important. Detail is the most important. Never let anyone tell you differently! (puts way too much detail into his stuff) Shut up!!

Besides, it’s nice to have a chapter like this sometimes, especially after a rash of info and action like there just was. It helps you process and get all your thoughts back up and with it.

Which makes me wonder...where is Raguel…? :looks suspiciously around:

Astri on August 5, 2006, 7:32:49 PM

Astri on August 5, 2006, 7:32:49 PM (Chapter: 33)

…Okay. Tattoos now strongly reminding me of breaking seals for angel transformation, and I can’t BELIEVE I didn’t get THAT one sooner. Suddenly I feel much less benignly towards tattoos…at least certain animalistic ones on a certain young boy’s back that seem to be pointing towards said boy’s future in a very negative way…

Please say there’s a happy ending? I really hope there’s a happy ending…hoping and praying for a happy ending…I like Iris too much for there not to be a happy ending… :all fingers crossed for a happy ending:

But now a new question is plaguing me…what is the problem with the dragon tattoo?

Astri on August 5, 2006, 7:32:12 PM

Astri on August 5, 2006, 7:32:12 PM (Chapter: 32)

Now THIS chapter took me by surprise. Iris…falling apart…is like the charm seal thing from way back when. It’s going to stick with me, the way you put it, the way you show it. In this place surrounded by earth and spiders. Surrounded by life and ready to die.

Yeah. I’ll stop now. Let’s just say that this is a chapter I’ll remember “when men are nothing but fairy tales in books written by rabbits.” (The Last Unicorn.)

Astri on August 5, 2006, 7:31:44 PM

Astri on August 5, 2006, 7:31:44 PM (Chapter: 31)

Ah-HA!! …Sort of. It does explain a lot, but still, the most urgent questions are left unanswered…well, duh, what would be the point in answering them now? Drives me nuts, though…

Where did Iris really come from? What does he really need? What does he really want? What is wrong with Raguel? Where did he come from? Why would sacrificing Iris save anything?

God, Iris IS like Colette, despite the fact that they act not at all similar…no wonder I like him so much…

Astri on August 5, 2006, 7:31:12 PM

Astri on August 5, 2006, 7:31:12 PM (Chapter: 30)

What am I? What am I? Such a hard question to answer…

An arachnoid. Corryn is an arachnoid. At least, were I forced to give name to form, that is the name I would give him. Well, his species, anyways.

So the question now (ONE OF the questions now) is, how does Valkyre being an archangel figure into Raguel’s plans? For that matter, what does he need with Iris’ blood? And why on earth is Iris so attached to Corryn? Trickery? Delusion? Or was Corryn the only bright spot in the hell of the labs so long ago?

And I still wonder…what did Iris do, that he is so afraid of himself?

Astri on August 5, 2006, 7:30:32 PM

Astri on August 5, 2006, 7:30:32 PM (Chapter: 29)

Okay. This is too weird. I’m comparing this thing to ToS the whole way through, and now, what is this awesome spider-boy (yes, he is awesome, I totally agree)’s name? Corryn.

Corryn. Like Corrine.

What does this mean?

“It means that I, like God, do not play with dice and do not believe in coincidence.” V for Vendetta.

Astri on August 5, 2006, 7:30:08 PM

Astri on August 5, 2006, 7:30:08 PM (Chapter: 28)

“You think -” You think - what? What?! Finish your bloody sentence, Raguel, you think what?!?! ARRRRGGGHHH!!! Obviously Iris was NOT made in a lab (which I kind of figured ever since Valkyre asked Iris where he came from and Iris said, “I remember the lab,” not just “The lab,” ) but that doesn’t help!! What is he, then?!

And on a side note, I also sympathize with your/ Raguel’s opinion of the world…however, I don’t think that it is too far gone. There is still hope…hope for us before the need for Iris’ blood.

Let the records show that I consider that even further potent foreshadowing. Like Colette’s letter to Lloyd at the beginning of Tales of Symphonia.

Somebody want to explain to me why I keep comparing Iris to Colette? --.--

Astri on August 5, 2006, 7:28:55 PM (Chapter: 26)

So. Angel against demon. Elve against vampire. Fae against harpy. Dryad against satyr. Hmm. Very interesting, these two, simply by the mere fact of their existence. Does this mean that Iris has all those inside him, as well? Dryad and harpy interest me particularly…hmm. Hmm, hmm, and hmm. And of course, what is that string?

Let’s find out!

Astri on August 5, 2006, 7:28:28 PM

Astri on August 5, 2006, 7:28:28 PM (Chapter: 25)

Actually, I do like this chapter. It comes at a good time; I was just starting to wonder how Iris is feeling about all this. And in reality, this chapter only whets my appetite as to that question. Curse you and your infernally capable way of pulling your readers along! (I kid, I kid ~.^) Now I must read still more, so as to see which secrets are next revealed…

Astri on August 5, 2006, 7:28:00 PM

Astri on August 5, 2006, 7:28:00 PM (Chapter: 24)

That’s my kind of math, all right ^.^ Give me the answer right from the start, and I can pass with flying colors ^.^ I hope.

As for other words, there’s always triumvirate, which is a word I rather like for a seat of ominous government. The only problem is, it only applies if this “big, ominous, but undetailed and unnamed governmental thingie” is headed by three people. “Tri” equals “three,” after all. Hey, more math I can do! ^.^

Failing that, you could also try the word “monolith.” You can refer to a “monolithic government,” so…

I dunno. Probably you’ve already found a better appellation anyways…ne? ~.^

Astri on August 5, 2006, 7:27:32 PM

Astri on August 5, 2006, 7:27:32 PM (Chapter: 23)

Snow, huh? Lucky ^.^ Bet you wish you had some of that now, huh?

All I can say about this chapter is…it is very creepy. Not just creepy in what happens, but in what is described before anything happens. If this is foreshadowing, it’s foreshadowing some pretty horrific events. (Goddess, take an Advanced Composition class and you analyze everything.) The first half of this chapter, I think, is scarier than the second. No mean feat, considering the first half is mostly jumbled chaos.

But I think that is why it is scarier than the second half. The second half I can understand. The first…is outside my comprehension.

Creepy.

Astri on August 5, 2006, 7:27:02 PM

Astri on August 5, 2006, 7:27:02 PM (Chapter: 22)

I get it! Iris is asking for tattoos for the different things he is, huh? Bat for vampire, wolf for were. Then, will a snake for lamia be coming up in the future? Angel wings and demon wings? Or something more subtle, like a butterfly and a moth? Or maybe even a butterfly and a spider?

And Iris’ reason: “It helps.” What horrible things has Iris done that he needs the same kind of help Valkyre did? Does?

Guess I should just keep reading, huh? ~.^

Astri on August 5, 2006, 7:26:36 PM

Astri on August 5, 2006, 7:26:36 PM (Chapter: 21)

O.O Oh, yes, that was a good one. YES, VERY GOOD ONE. WE HIGHLY APPROVE.

You deserve another one for this, so here you go:

SHOWER OF LOVE AND ADORATION!!!!!!! ^.^ ^.^ ^.^ :luvluvluv:

I could go off about the beautiful imagery, the subtle and not-so-subtle seductiveness, the way every word of this chapter calls the precise picture it describes to mind; but I think it goes without saying. Besides, I have no time. I have to read the next one… ^.^

Astri on August 5, 2006, 7:26:07 PM

Astri on August 5, 2006, 7:26:07 PM (Chapter: 20)

Am I continuous now? ^.^

Goddess, I don’t believe it. That bat is still making me laugh. I chalk it up to it being 12:12 at night. Yep, that’s gotta be it. Nocturnal animals are humorous at night. Right? It’s either that or I’m going insane.

Well, as long as I finish the story first so my curiosity needn’t fetch a blowtorch…

Astri on August 5, 2006, 7:25:42 PM

Astri on August 5, 2006, 7:25:42 PM (Chapter: 19)

I like Maeve. I really like Maeve ^.^ That’s all I can really say right now ^.^; God, my comment makes this chapter look like the flippin’ Bible… --.--

Astri on August 5, 2006, 7:25:15 PM

Astri on August 5, 2006, 7:25:15 PM (Chapter: 18)

I like this chapter a lot—well, “like” is the wrong word. I mean, I do like it, but there is something from this chapter that is going to stick with me for a long time, and that thing is the charm seal. That…is something right out of a nightmare. And then, the scene once it’s gone and Iris starts to come back to himself is as sweet as the touch of his fingers on Valkyre’s lips.

So, I like this scene, and I dislike it (charm seal --.--) But I like it much more than I dislike it, and as previously stated: this is gonna stick with me for a LONG time.

Astri on August 5, 2006, 7:24:51 PM

Astri on August 5, 2006, 7:24:51 PM (Chapter: 17)

Hey, I like shonen-ai. My favorites are always the shonen-ai, not the yaoi. Yaoi is great and all, but nothing tops a shonen-ai with a wonderful story. Like this one, for example. Involving story, fantastic characters, and suggestive sensuality that just kind of brushes the edges of your imagination like simbala music. The perfect read ~.^

Astri on August 5, 2006, 7:24:25 PM

Astri on August 5, 2006, 7:24:25 PM (Chapter: 16)

Uncomfortable? Maybe not uncomfortable…

:sound of about twenty different people smacking me:

Uh, oh, yes…uncomfortable. Mm-hmm.

I should add, two-colored eyes? Good thing. Very good thing. I like two-colored eyes. And besides, there aren’t that many. The weird thing had them, and now Raguel has them. That’s all. (Iris doesn’t count, because his eyes I’m sure change more than one color.) So cutting back on the two-colored eyes is not necessary. Really… ^.^;

Astri on August 5, 2006, 7:23:58 PM

Astri on August 5, 2006, 7:23:58 PM (Chapter: 15)

And I thought the vampire was a one-shot deal ~.^

Might as well remark now, I really like the names you pick. Valkyre, Maeve…but the best one is Iris. Naming him Iris was seriously inspired. It keeps life in his character even when he seems his most dead.

I have this unhealthy adoration for the name Iris…

Astri on August 5, 2006, 7:23:26 PM

Astri on August 5, 2006, 7:23:26 PM (Chapter: 14)

Well…um…belated good luck on your midterms, then. Or good luck on your future midterms, whichever you prefer ~.^

Interesting idea, the whole blood-for-money thing. When he first said, “Three bottles,” I was going “???” But then I understood what was going on, and was more like, “Oh! That’s cool!”

And then Iris disappeared. Well, even the best of ‘em get kidnapped once or twice…or thrice, in Colette’s case…

Astri on August 5, 2006, 7:22:55 PM

Astri on August 5, 2006, 7:22:55 PM (Chapter: 13)

Holy bleep, I was actually RIGHT about what I said in the last chapter?! No way! I was just taking random guesses! I only thought of that because the thing was skinny and pale and that reminded me of Iris!

And what on earth was going on with Iris or the weird thing in THIS one? One resurrecting, the other lying to rest. Somehow I have the feeling things will convolute further before they become clear.

How wonderfully intriguing ^.^

Oh yes. And here:

A SHOWER OF LOVE AND ADORATION!!!!!!!! ^.^ ^.^ ^.^ :luvluvluv:

That help any? ~.^

Astri on August 5, 2006, 7:22:19 PM

Astri on August 5, 2006, 7:22:19 PM (Chapter: 12)

What was THAT? A zombie? Or perhaps a “failed” Iris, an experiment that failed to work correctly? Or something even weirder still…?

And Iris isn’t boring. He’s quiet and almost lethargic, but he’s not boring. Anyone who wants a small bat is not boring.

…

God, I’m STILL thinking about that part! ^.^;

Astri on August 5, 2006, 7:21:45 PM

Astri on August 5, 2006, 7:21:45 PM (Chapter: 11)

This chapter has one of the most prosaically hysterical lines I’ve ever seen. For some odd reason, Iris saying, “…Just a small bat,” is absurdly funny to me. I couldn’t tell you why (maybe because it’s 11:29 at night ^.^; ) but it really is.

And no, I don’t think this is really a high lemon story…and yes, I really like the tattoos ^.^

The funny part is, while writing that last sentence, I accidentally put “bat” instead of “tattoos.” See what that line did to me?! ^.^

Astri on August 5, 2006, 7:21:17 PM

Astri on August 5, 2006, 7:21:17 PM (Chapter: 10)

And…you definitely reached 20 ^.^

I sympathize with the whole spider thing. I don’t kill spiders either. Not sure I’d let them on my hand (I’m not quite trusting enough --.--) but I take great pains not to kill them. I’ll spend ten minutes trying to coax a spider out of the shower before I use it.

Flies, on the other hand…I murder without mercy --.--

Astri on August 5, 2006, 7:20:39 PM

Astri on August 5, 2006, 7:20:39 PM (Chapter: 9)

And not long after my whole statement about Iris not being helpless, look what we see ^.^; He’s REALLY not helpless. He could have torn Valkyre limb from limb when the angel came to kill him, had he wanted to. But that, of course, is the clincher. He doesn’t want to. First he didn’t care, and now I think he might really not want to.

You know, once I’m done with this I think I might have to read it again. Knowing the characters better at the end, I’m going to have to go back again and see the things I missed the first time. Like Iris being able to shred Valkyre without breaking a sweat.

Interesting. This just keeps getting more and more interesting.

Astri on August 5, 2006, 7:20:11 PM

Astri on August 5, 2006, 7:20:11 PM (Chapter: 8)

Ohhhh…tattoos… :bliss, although rather naughtier bliss than the last one: I LOVE tattoos. Well, some tattoos, anyways. Aesthetic ones. And Valkyre’s sound aesthetic. VERY aesthetic…

I think getting these two characters beyond the “okay, I WON’T stab you on contact” relationship is a huge step, so I’d say this chapter actually accomplished a lot. Plus it is one of those scenes that show intense sensuality in a perfectly innocent act. For some reason, I like that a lot better than when it’s outright; there’s something appealing about the innocuousness of it. Or the subtlety. Or the delicacy.

I have no idea what I’m saying. I’ll stop now.

Astri on August 5, 2006, 7:19:34 PM

Astri on August 5, 2006, 7:19:34 PM (Chapter: 7)

Oh, good. Iris isn’t the annoying type who just stands there and lets himself be captured. Guy or girl, I always hate that. That’s one of the things I like about Colette—she actually fights back. She still gets kidnapped a few times, but she fights back. She’s not helpless. Iris is not helpless.

Can you say “off-topic”? Sorry ^.^; Really nice action sequence here. I loved the description of the lamia—it was masterly, particularly the description of her tail. “…curling away in soft loops like the trail of a river on flat plains.” Ah, imagery… :bliss:

All right, all right, my curiosity can put the chair down now…

Astri on August 5, 2006, 7:19:06 PM

Astri on August 5, 2006, 7:19:06 PM (Chapter: 6)

I think it works well. I can understand Valkyre’s fascination with Iris—and that feeling Iris had when Valkyre touched him helps explain his side as well. They’re both oddly lonely, and I think they can feel it in each other…

You know, until this chapter it never occurred to me they had long hair? What is wrong with me? I usually always assume long hair unless the author (ess) says otherwise --.--

My curiosity is screaming at me to figure out what the hell is going on, so I’d better humor it…

Astri on August 5, 2006, 7:18:38 PM

Astri on August 5, 2006, 7:18:38 PM (Chapter: 5)

Oh, yes, I’m confused. And curious as all getout about what the heck THIS was…must keep reading and find out…!

Astri on August 5, 2006, 7:18:12 PM

Astri on August 5, 2006, 7:18:12 PM (Chapter: 4)

You know, the amethyst-eyes part reminds me of Tsuzuki, from Yami no Matsuei/ Descendants of Darkness. Except Valkyre isn’t much like Tsuzuki…well, hopefully he’s as hot as Tsuzuki, but he doesn’t act like Tsuzuki ^.^

You misjudge yourself. You don’t have vague dialogue, you have philosophical dialogue. Your dialogue wanders through the mist-shrouded backroads of the abstract and considers broken statues of confusion and thought, caring far more about the way it gets to its destination and how much it can see along the way than how fast it does it. Granted, that drives some people (like my mom) nuts. But me, personally? I like it. It makes me think. Why do I live? What do I want to know? What am I, really?

Okay, curiosity trying to bite me now…I’ll shut up and keep reading.

Astri on August 5, 2006, 7:17:40 PM

Astri on August 5, 2006, 7:17:40 PM (Chapter: 3)

I think you made it up to the double digits…^.^

So, Iris is a philosopher. Among other things. The interesting thing about this chapter (and something that truly demonstrates your prowess as a writer) is how different the chapter reads from Valkyre to Iris. Iris thinks in a completely different way from Valkyre, and here you can see it. This chapter is written in a completely different way from the previous ones with Valkyre. That means you can “hear” character voice. And that’s excellent.

Curiosity is screaming, “Enough with the analyzing! Get back to the bloody story!!” ^.^;

Astri on August 5, 2006, 7:17:13 PM

Astri on August 5, 2006, 7:17:13 PM (Chapter: 2)

Oh, it worked. Trust me, it worked.

This is a fascinating world you’ve found, Trinity. And Iris is a fascinating character. Blend of bloods, antithesis itself, huh? Highly intriguing…

My curiosity’s starting to get violent ^.^

Astri on August 5, 2006, 7:16:43 PM

Astri on August 5, 2006, 7:16:43 PM (Chapter: 1)

Of course the opening doesn’t explain anything, it’s not supposed to! This is a perfect example of a “hook” opening—it snatches you in and doesn’t let you go. Your curiosity can’t stand to leave it alone…

I’m foreseeing a long night ahead… ^.^

Actually, I kind of liked how the chapter was rather choppy and jumpy because it reflects Corryn's personality (especially in this chapter). It seems to bring more depth to his character! >w< I lurve him... He seems like a lost child. -^^-

Oh, and why didn't you tell me your b-day was coming up?! I could've drawn you somethin'!!! >_< I guess I'll just have to draw you 2 pictures now. One of Iris and one of Roka! WEEE~!

Don't apologize for the writing. You clearly have a grasp of plot, character foil, and description. However, on the subject of proper punctuation...it is difficult to figure out when one paragraph ends and the other begins, which often ruins the reading experience because it becomes difficult to space each block of text. Just press the enter button and you'll do fine. Besides that, though, this was nice. So far, I'm interested.

Bravo.

I've got exams next week too, so reading this story has given me a nice excuse to have a little rest from revision, lol. My god though, it's sooo boring (er, the revision, that is, not the story). I can't believe i actually have an exam on the history of gardening?!!?!??!! I mean, can you think of anything more boring and pointless? Cos I can't... Also, I didn't go to any of the lectures, so I have no idea what i'm actually supposed to know... oh well.... Good luck in your exams :)

Only 9 days holiday??? I thought I had it bad, I only get 3 weeks instead of the usual 4, since we had longer summer holidays... I feel sorry for you.... Anyway, great chapter, I don't mind if it takes a while for them to get together, and I agree, it does make it more realistic (even though we all know its coming!), which i like, cos one gets to know the characters, and can begin to predict how they will react in certain situations, which I like to do :)
