Very nice. A lot of people either make Gaara completely out of character or an extreme psychopath, but I think you had it right on. He IS a real person, after all. Maybe you should describe the workroom a little more. It's hard to grasp the atmosphere with only a small idea of the background. Very good story, though.

Thank you for the compliments! I'm glad you liked it - it is really hard to find in-character Gaara fic. I hadn't really described the workroom because I didn't want people to focus too much on it, but I guess I didn't describe it enough. The term 'workroom' gives me a very specific mental image, but I didn't want to put too many restrictions on people's imaginations by giving a specific description. I'll certainly take your comment into account the next time I'm doing revisions of this fic (probably after Christmas, since I have work and exams and stuff now).
Thanks again!
