    Wow. Sort of reminds me of Black Swan, how the only thing the girl cared about was perfection. It was well-written, but really depressing.

    She wasn't perfect anymore. She was flawed. She couldn't take being flawed.
    ^ My fave line.

    I thought this was done rather well. Simply worded but the imagery was beautiful. And I'm quite taken with your banner. :)

    Good work on this.

    This was heart breaking as it was beautifully written.

    I love your writing style and how some of the sentences are shorter to represent a pause. The way you described how dancing was her escape reminded me of some of the things that help me escape so in a way I could relate to the words you were saying which is always great to read in a story.

    Though it was very sad at the end, for some reason I think it tied it all together and I liked the fact that it wasn't a sappy-ever-after. It also matched the layout perfectly.

    This was terrific. <3

    This was amazing, I love how you made her sound perfect and as soon as she had a flaw, she stopped. It showed so much emotion and you pulled it off. Great job m'dear.

    this is good. but i'm a little disappointed, why did she give up that easy? if dancing really was her life, she should be still dancing though she had broke her ankle.. well, that's just my opinion. i enjoy this one-shot though :)

    I quite enjoyed this, lovely! And it's amazing how fast you posted it from the time you told me it popped into your head! Haha. But seriously, this was...great. You're quite talented, if I may say as much. c:
