The Only Exception - Comments

Thanks for entering the contest! :D

First off, I just have uo say that I almost busted out laughing (I would've if I wasn't in school right now) when I read this line:
"Holy mother of Poseidon, what the fuck is that?" I yell.
I might have to use that x3
But anywhos.
This was interesting, I love how you knew your stuff about merpeople and the Gods, that's awesome.
If you wouldn't have said anything about this being your first slash, I wouldn't have even noticed. It seemed like you've written a lot more.
I got kinda sad when it ended, because I wanted to see where this went.
Maybe you could continue this? :D
Just a thought :3
This was really good <3

Amazing! I wish there were more on this, but you did a wonderful job on this!
It was really original, and I loved it.

Okay, firstly, I'd like to thank you for entering my contest! :)

Secondly, just to address the first commenter, the line was supposed to be sort of cliche to see what a writer could do to make it original.

This story was amazing. It definitely wasn't what I expected and was really good. It's obvious you did your homework with the Gods and their references were cool. I also liked the little mermaid reference. References are also a plus. Grammar and spelling were amazing, something that I love, but there were very few sentences that you forgot to put commas in where needed. The pace was just right and it was detailed just enough. For a first slash, this was spectacular. Everything just flowed... beautifully.

Keep up the amazing work! :) <3

I wish this wasn't such a short story =(. It's sooo good!

it's over? but..... i want there to be more :'(

so, i briefly glanced at this contest in forums and i've seen at least two other entries.
and i gotta say, this is REALLY original [best i've seen shhhh]. i figured it would be hard to come up with something for a story that has to start with a relatively cliché line. you, obviously, proved me VERY wrong.
i really like the meman's character and how he finds irony even in death. it adds a sense of reality to what's going on in his head.
also, ten million points for the little mermaid reference. that was the perfect touch.
more often than not, it's hard to write original slash because there are SO MANY stereotypes. your story has not fallen into any of them. in fact, it could almost create a category of it's own.
like there's a hat you're supposed to pull your story out of with little slits of paper that have bad plots on them, but you decided you didn't need a hat and pulled your story out of the refrigerator.
needless to say, i think your story is badass, and i'm gonna go subscribe now, if that's fine with you :)
