    I am so loving this story. Ignore what those idiots say, this fic rocks. I think you've nailed Jareth and Sarah's relationship. Waiting eagerly for the next update!!!

    I just recently began reading your story, and instantly found myself intrigued. I love your writing style and how much detail you put in to it. The BDSM is not all offensive to me, I actually find it kinda sexy. xP Keep up the good work. ^^

    Sorry for "reviewing" so many times in succession. But I also forgot to explain (I should have done it already in my first review) that I understand that there is a difference between a normal dom/sub relationship and such a sadistic/masochistic relationship as I refered to. A "normal" sub/dom relationship actually is not abusive, because the both involved know what they are agreeing to and are okay with that. And if they love each other, obviously there are some boundaries that they don't overstep so as not to do something that would make the other unhappy and/or hurt him/her in a wrong way. It just seemed to me that Jareth was heading in the direction of the worst kind of dom/sub relationship with Sarah. But now I will wait to see how it actually works out.

    I want to add that I expressly stated in my review that I don't think that love can't be involved in a BDSM relationship. But it's understandable that when an author receives a review that is not entirely positive, they tend to take it worse than it was intended, and notice only the most negative parts of it. My reaction most likely would be the same in your place.

    I apologize if what I wrote appeared as slander to you. It was not supposed to sound like that, and even less, to start a "flames war". I was really just expressing my opinion. I agree that maybe I chose the wrong story for that. That rant was a long way coming and I decided to finally say something about it. Again, I agree, probably I did it with the wrong story and assumed too much.

    Although, I have to say, if you think that was a flame or some kind of slander (I realize, that you probably refer to me assuming that you have that kind of relationship in your own life. Again, I am sorry for that, but if you really had such a relationship in your life, you shouldn't be ashamed of it and regard someone assuming it as slander), you don't know what a real flame is. A real flame is when someone just says that your story is shit and you yourself are a brainless idiot for writing something like that, without explaining why do they think so at all. And, believe me, there are quite many authors who have received such "reviews" for their stories without any real reason, except maybe some twisted kind of envy or some personal grudge. I assure you, that wasn't the reason in my case at all. I simply exaggerated.

    That was kind from you not to delete my review. Now when you say that there will be more to Sarah's and Jareth's relationship I am really intrigued by your story.

    "They were loud, smelly, dressed poorly, and drank more than 3 times their weight every day. Basically, they are the fey version of the Irish."
    I was honestly enjoying your story till I came across this! I myself am Irish. And I am very offended by your racism, because thats exactly what it is.
    Please think in future before you use stereotypical crap like the above quote because its just plain hurtful

    In truth, I don't really understand the kind of relationship and the kind of "love" that you are obviously aiming at in this story. in my opinion, that isn't really love, it is something more twisted. I am not saying that there can't be some sort of love in a dom/sub relationship, but then the two involved must also truly care about each other, at least emotionally, besides all the violence, and that too has to be carefully measured.

    At least in this story Jareth obviously has some great psychological problems. And Sarah, most likely, has them as well, although of a different sort. Jareth may call his feelings for Sarah "love" (although, he hasn't yet), but it's more like a sick obsession.

    Please, don't just say; "You don't have to read this story, if you don't like that kind of relationship." (yes, there are warnings about it all over it). That would mean that only people who think all is great and shiny in the story are allowed to read it and only entirely positive reviews and opinions are acceptable.

    For some reason, I am often intrigued when I encounter such a story. Will it be the standard dark version of dom/sub relationship story where one likes to abuse and hurt and the other likes being abused and hurt, and therefore all is great and shiny between them in the end? Or will there be some psychological issues involved? And probably some questioning about the nature of this "love"? And, in this case, will Sarah be the pathetic masochistic submissive who truly likes being abused, is happy about it and does nothing to stop or change it? Will she give in and up just like that? Will she be easily broken? Or will she at least try to change things? Are there any surprises coming concerning her, Jareth or his brother Marek? Is Marek really no different than Jareth when it comes to the attitude towards women (so it seems by what you wrote earlier, but that would be quite boring)? In short, I have to ask again - will this be a standard, boring dom/sub story or will we be surprised with something different and deeper? I realize, though, that if you yourself are an adherent of such relationship as I described and have/or desire for such a relationship in your own life, that there is no hope for that.

    Whoo!! Lol, I love this story!! Your writing is so fantastic! I really love how you've portrayed Sarah and Jareth. Smart-mouthed Sarah is funny and truthful. I like how you don't tone down your Jareth. I like him all arrogant and high-handed. Update soon!!
