''Give it a rest will ya? There’s only room in this band for one drama queen and let’s face it I am hotter''
Oh vince! xD
Where should I start? This is so trhilling and I have no idea how this will end! But it looks like it will be a bit.. dramatic and violent (but I dont mind it)
well, another great chapter as always, I'm looking forward to read the next. Wonder who Izzy will choose, what Duff is about to do, and Nikki too ofcourse, that call sounded creepy.Author's response
Hehe, I love that you enjoyed my Vince comedy. I am so happy that it's still thrilling even after all chapters. Thanks for the review! =) -

Puppets, Strings and Masters…
That’s exactly where it all comes down to, isn’t it? Quite a sinister, little theater of evil you are building here for our hero’s – with scenery’s like skechted from M.C. Escher and some nasty (double) mean (ing) requisites (Well, you are stringing me all along).
There are some strong, pictorial scenes in this chapter. One, I could not help myself: it came on to me like one of this pop-up-adds – was: Mick lounging on a giant mushroom (grinning around his cigarette. A small cloud of smoke billowed from between his teeth.), speaking words of wisdom*… It painted a BIG smile on my face.
Another scene, which left me shivering, was: Nikki slumping down like a marionette with loosened strings, back to the hands (claws?) of his puppeteer. Chilling to the bone!
(Seriously - what’s up with Nikki? He is in a really bad way, isn’t he? WTHF happened to him to scatter him that way? Your last scene left me quite guessing… wondering on how to read “I want you to have Izzy. ”, musing over the way Nikki will succumb to “…seen what the guitarist …really wants!”…’cause you know – I kind a like your Nikki! So- leave me (some) hope, SASIS (till…whatever you will come up with).
… “all knowing, drunk monkey…” Just ZEN!
A true surprise to me was Axl’s “Yes and no. …” And, by the way, I just love the line about seeking comfort (aahh…. you know the lines – you wrote it ;-) . )
See, your story still leaves me worked up, thinking, guessing and pleading for more!
I like the way how thought out it is, I’ m in love with the leveling consequences in it.
There is a load of more lines, details* and STRINGS** to analyze and overanalyze in this chapter alone – but enough of fan-girling for today!
I was kind of surprised (not to mention delighted) about the quick update – but no matter how long it would take you next time – it is worth the PATIENCE anyway!
Had fun, thank you!
*not to forget the whole “challenge-break-piece-patch back together and give whole- speak” SIGH! Maybe THAT’S where it all comes down to, isn’t it?
** Chris-thing – I could kiss you for this thread…so well researched and...
* Duff –thing seriously POSSESS? But I like the edges…

- “I (…) think there’s a misunderstanding.” Not your typos – but mine!
- Leastwise I got cold medication as a namely well worn around here – nevertheless in my case (half) true - excuse for me to - not typing your penname* right (blushes embarrassed) and getting (over)excited in reviewing ( no blushing there..) .
- Only half true, ‘cause I like your stuff a lot and getting excited is so easy.
-
- “Oh, just… one more thing”… (See, cold medication AND too many Colombo- reruns ;-) )…- “Yes and no. Izzy was…” Axl cleared his throat. No fucking way, Axl thought.??? …and besides Izzy was his ???…hey, how, er you’re in, you’re in, …
That’s really, really mean! Izzy was …. WTHF did he or does he mean to Axl? ‘Cause there’s no commercial break to it! So, I suppose I just have to bear with it until
You decide to enlighten your humble (just joking..) readers….
*You have not noticed, really? I was so abashed…, but I could not figure out a way to correct my review so I posted a new one…with a big D! For SADIS… So – typos are overrated (most of the time) anyway – don’t you think?
Sorry for getting excited again! For the next chapter I promise a three line ( don’t nail me) review!
Author's response
Oh lol, no worries. Typos are inevitable.
I'm sorry, I can't tell you much about Axl's comment :3 I didn't mean for it to be mean. I'm a habitual hint dropper. There are clues about those two in one of the past chapters ;)
And please don't ever apologize for how long your reviews come out! I absolutely adore reading everything you find and point out in my work, and you're excitement just makes me more excited to write faster. =D -

You're such a great writer! I have to admit I'm mostly on Nikki's side, although I suppose I do have some sympathy for Duff. But anyway, I can't wait for the next chapter! Take your time though. :)

P.s. you use great vocabulary in your stories and the grammar and spelling are perfect. Great job, thought I'd point that out. :DAuthor's response
Thank you so much for your kind words! Also happy to get a vote for one of the guys. I've been on the fence about the whole Nikki/Duff thing lately thus my absence updating :3
A huge thank you for your comments about my writing, grammar and spelling. That made me grin and I can't tell you how much that means to me!! -

This is a masterpiece, i adore your story. Is Slash still in love with Axl, or does he want Izzy? I'l waiting for a new chapter and i hope it comes real soon! ;)Author's response
Oh my heavens, thank you so very much for sharing your love of my story =D
Slash is either going to be really mean or really good. Sorry I'm always cryptic :3 I promise to continue the story soonish.
Thank you again for your review -
