Mad as a Box of Frogs - Comments

oh god i thought she really was gonna die. holy crap.

and im not too good at comments... but those lines in the comment above are my favorite too. matt and arthur's character's were so sweet and geniune. arthur especially was so real, right down to the body language, it was perfect :) such a clear picture in my head of the two of them, and so sad... basically i loved it, alotalotalot

How I didn't find this before, I don't know. The point is, I was hooked right from reading the summary. The idea just sounded so unique that backing out was, quite literally, not possible. anyways, although I should be sleeping, onward!

First off, I just adore how you write. Your dialogue is so well-written but then you jut hit the reader with these amazing descriptions. Its mindblowing. I love Matt's character in this too; he's so vulnerable and sweet and human and it is just wonderful. -is rambling now-

Matt Smith, the man who could talk for England if it were an Olympic sport. Matt Smith, the man who can’t stand awkward silences so fills them with words, beautiful words, ugly words, empty words.

Matt Smith, the man who has no words. Not any more. I adored those two paragraphs. I'm a huge fan of repetition when it is done right and this is a stellar example. It was just so beautiful and made Matt's character even more wonderful. My God, I love Matt Smith. -facewall-

One thing that I really liked as well was your strategic use of the song lyrics. I'm usually not a fan of using the lyrics directly in the text but I think that, since they were so spaced out and used as dividers, that it worked perfectly. (:

This... this was just the sweetest thing I think I've ever read. From beginning to end, it was just so wonderful. Matt's character was so well written; I think I've fallen in love with him. xD And I'm so glad this had a happy ending, or I might have cried. I swear to God I'll stop stalking your stories soon but honestly, there was absolutely nothing wrong with this. You're amazing. (:

Askdjldjl;df; GAH. This story is amazing!

I. Love. Matt. Smith. Not just in general, real life, but the way you portray him here. Beautiful and broken and sort of confident-but-still-unsure of himself… ugh. I can’t even explain how very awesome and perfect and just WONDERFUL I find him in this story. You’ve done an excellent job with him. Simply, purely excellent.

I like the other characters, too, of course. But if I try to talk about them I’ll just prattle on more about how much I love Matt. So I’ll stop.

The plot of this is wonderful. I like the idea of combining a fairy tale and a songfic, especially the two you’ve chosen. And you handled the emotions wonderfully. May I just say that for a moment I hated you, because I thought Karen was going to die. But then Arthur grabbed Matt’s arm and she was ALIVE and I was incredibly happy and loved you once again. :D

Seriously, though, this story is wonderful. Definitely one of my absolute favorites I’ve read here on Mibba!

Kudos!

I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY THIS HAS NO COMMENTS.

I don't even watch Doctor Who, but the title caught my attention and before I knew it I'd started reading and got drawn in. You have some really great descriptions, and I love how you laced the piece with humour, even though the topic was quite serious. You really managed to convey Matt's, Karen's, Arthur's and Caitlin's characters well; I don't watch Doctor Who like I said, but I still felt like I knew and understood them. And the ending was just ridiculously adorable and ksjhfjgjhdjksfs.

Fantastic job.
