Comment on I Should Have Been There

  1. Omfg... I MUST KNOW WHAT HAPPENS NEXT! I NEED TO KNOW! THIS IS LIFE AND DEATH! OR MIGHT AS WELL BE!

    I’m fairly new to the fandom, unfortunately. I blame my lack of access to good TV as a child: no cable until we couldn’t tell what was on screen. No joke.
    This totally would’ve been my ultimate childhood show if I’d had access to watching it then. Finally indulged in the long living curiosity and oh man I’m hooked. And the entire universe of it all is causing me much joy but also much pain in return. But I love every moment of it. Gosh. Should’ve indulged the curiosity earlier. Much earlier. Like junior high earlier. Something like that when I actually knew how to access shows for free on the internet. (I was program savvy then not website searching stuff savvy.)

    But oh man. I binged all of Yu-Gi-Oh only in a few days (4-5ish or something like that) between class this summer. I cried SO MUCH WHEN IT ENDED! SO MUCH!
    Then I binged GX (bc that’s what peaked my “fuck it I’m going to watch the original series now bc my roommate had this on and I found myself enjoying it well enough” moment. But he hadn’t warned me about the feels trip the original would take me on.)
    CRIED AT THE END OF GX BC OF YUGI! 10 years into the future. Or something like that. And then the time travel and all of that. Fuck me.
    Of course. I mean, it’s kinda super difficult not to get super attached and infinitely emotionally attached to the characters.

    I started following this SUPER AMAZING SPECTACULAR STUNNING story before watching the dark side of dimensions and fell in love with it. No joke. It’s good. Really good. I mean that to infinity and beyond.

    But I watched it this evening: aka the middle of the night or close to that.
    OMFG I CRIED FOR THE LAST 10 MINUTES OF IT AND THEN FOR AT LEAST 10-15 MINUTES AFTER! I watched the clock and practically timed how long this cry-fest would last. I cried in the shower past 1:00 am. (It’s now currently 2:14)

    BUT THIS IS EVEN BETTER NOW THAT I UNDERSTAND DARK SIDE OF DIMENSIONS AND OMFG JUST FUCK ME SIDEWAYS WITH A FRYING PAN!
    RIP MY HEART OHT AND FEED IT TO ME WHILE RUBBING SALT INTO THE WOUND! GOUGE MY EYES OUT! SKIN ME ALIVE!

    But I absolutely love this story! I cannot wait to continue reading and supporting it! Thank you much for this you gorgeous person who has talent and must be quite lovely.

    I do apologize for this essay of a review. But this story has quite an impact on my mentality in all of this especially now that I’ve watched what this is a continuation of. Wonderful stuff. Absolutely wonderful.

    Definitely looking forward to the next update! :D
    Much love! <3
    (Also I hope this didn’t come across as creepy. Not my intent at all.)

    1. Oh gosh this was beautiful to wake up too!~ Don't worry, my editor is on me about writing the next chapter lol.

      To be honest, I'm also very new to the fandom. I didn't watch Yu-Gi-Oh! while growing up (more so a Pokemon fan). I blame Seto Kaiba for actually getting me into the fandom! It was probably 4 am, I have troubles sleeping at night, and I wanted to clean my room. I turned on my TV to have background noise, thinking I wasn't going to actually watch the show I put on Yu-Gi-Oh!. The moment Kaiba came on the screen and was dueling Yami I was hooked! So Seto Kaiba dragged me into this hell of a fandom and I love him for that. I feel you though on loving the show but also getting pain in return. (I don't even wanna count the times Marik's stuff made me cry.)

      If you can't tell from my other fics, I love GX as well, especially my good bois Jaden, Jesse, and Chazz. Also I'm glad you got to watch the amazing piece of art that is DSOD, I mean look at how pretty everyone is! Ryou got the short end of the stick though which I hated. Me and Alovra have many words about that. Thank you so much for your comment and support on this, I really enjoy these bois and trust me there's a lot more to come with much angst involved.

      (And no this didn't come across as creepy. It was lovely and amazing to read!~ <3)

      1. Omg Marik. That was a whirlwind of a roller coaster! The entire 224 episodes were a whirlwind of stabbing knives to the heart and soul!!!

        Duuuuude. I do feel that! Seto Kaiba. The most egotistical narcissistic character ever that needs to be in life more!!!!
        But Atem really got me. And his connection to everyone. And LET US PRIDESHIP THE HELL OUT OF HIM AND KAIBA! FUCK YEAH! I LIVEEEE FOR THAT!!! (And my education. Definitely that. Need a good career. So that I can continue to indulge in the good stuff.)

        I moved apartments today so my mama was helping me move. She stayed and had dinner with me which was nice. But before that we went shopping and omfg when I went off about DSOD and the rest of the everything I could see the “are you done yet?” within her.
        Oh yeah. So good. Told her this totally would’ve been my childhood show of my life. (Also found out that we didn’t get cable until I was 6-7ish. And even then I rarely watched anything bc of bush schedules.) Really missed out on this.

        FUCK YEAH GX! But having to watch season 4 in Japanese after whatnot three seasons in English was super weird. Suuuuper weird. BUT OMFG THE CHARACTERS! LOOOVE THEM! But the filler episodes were pretty dumb. My roommate threw a fit. Rather amusing.

        YESSSS DSOD ISSS SOOO GOOOOD!!!! But yeah. RYOU DESERVES SO MUCH BETTER BLESS HIM BLESS THE SMALL CHILD WHO IS ADORABLE AND DESERVES THE WORLD AND ALL THE GOODNESS!!! Fuck the millennium ring. FUCK IT!
        But the glo up. So many feels!!! TOO MANY!
        And tbh I totally think the way they portrayed Kaiba’s obsession with dueling Atem could be interpreted differently. A+ writers of that. A+

        Looking forward to the angst planned! Much love from here! (Also happy that the comment pleased you. Every word of praise is true. So good. So so good. Also sorry for leaving such long comments. I love to talk.)
