The Art of Surviving - Comments

i'm really proud of Derek
i really have to say that i'm proud of him because he swallowed his pride and he talked to Jaxon and warned him about Venus, you know? or at least, said what he could about her
now i must say that i really really like Azzy
with the way you describe her, she just sounds like a misunderstood somebody who's been deprived of the love everyone deserves, and i'm glad Jax is finally treating her better ((((((((:
BUT YES
BLEED VENUS OUT
LET HER DIE
LET THE BLOOD FLOW
anyways thanks so much for updating this! c:

Ok, I stumbled upon this story yesterday and started reading it straight away. I have now one chapter remaining and I really don't want to read it for the simple fact that if I do, I'm afraid I'll have to wait weeks or even months until your next update. I just really don't want to leave the world of Venus and Jaxon. I love those characters way too much already. Your writing is also perfect, you have a great eye for detail, everything is described so brilliantly. I have read some of the comments here and many people seem to hate Venus but I fucking love her and if she dies I will just not be able to handle life at all. I can relate to her in so many ways. Like, drinking and doing drugs just to cover up the pain she feels. I can really relate to that (sadly). But yeah, pleaaaaaase update soon! I will actually pay you... with love if you do c:

YES JAXON
VENUS IS BAD FOR YOU (((CODE FOR COME LOVE ME NOW)))
i'm actually starting to like Azzy
she's straight up better than Venus
VENUS GO AWAY
i hope he makes her cry
and i hope he feels no sympathy when he does
YES
HE MADE HER CRY YES
I FEEL SOME FEELING OF SUCCESS

YES
JAXON YES
TAKE A STAND YES
tbh, "pathetic expression" defines Venus's life
just my opinion, of course
but i am so tired of Venus just throwing Jaxon around and i'm so proud of him

ok so if Azzy is that excited for the carnival i honestly wonder how excited she'd be for Disneyland or Disneyworld omg
YOU HONESTLY HAVE NO IDEA HOW PROUD OF JAX I AM
LIKE I'VE SAID THIS ABOUT 5 TIMES ALREADY BUT I'M JUST SO GIDDY MEEPs

"Why do you keep killing yourself when you're already dying?" Holy CRAP. I am so in love with that line. You know, I was worried about Venus and actually felt bad for her. But after this chapter, I kind of hate her. Just a little bit. How dare she think she can just go into his place without even asking him first. She's acting like nothing even happened, like she has absolutely no idea how much she's hurting Jaxon. He was so sweet and now he's just bitter - and no friggen wonder. He should have taken the spare key and hidden it so she can't use it again. And as annoying as Azzy can be (I don't find her annoying, fyi, I quite enjoy her) I think she's good for him. She's getting him out of the apartment and giving him something else to think about other than Venus - and isn't SHE jealous, oh dear. THAT'S WHAT YOU GET WHEN YOU BURN BRIDGES WITH THE JAXON.

Thanks for the update! Hope you feel better soon <333

I'm so happy for updates! I can't wait for the next!

JAXON PLEASE GO AND ABANDON VENUS
oh man Jaxon is too sweet
i'll hug him
and can i keep him please bc i kinida love him aND ARE U KIDDING ME YOU AREN'T LETTING ANYONE DOWN THIS IS FANTASTIC

Number one, you could never ever in any lifetime let me down. You're too damn talented for your own good, I swear to God.
Number two, COME HERE TO ME JAXON. LET ME HUG YOU AND LOVE YOU. This chapter broke my heart. Not only because of Jaxon, but because of Azzy too. She's just so pathetic and helpless and lost, I wanna help her and make her feel better. SAME WITH JAXON. And as angry as I am with Venus, I can't help but worry about her and wonder where she is - though it's obvious she's out partying herself stupid. That girl, I tell you.

Thanks for the update!

Atta boy, Jaxon! He does deserve better than what he's getting from Venus. He gives her everything and lets her come back again and again to walk all over him. Still feel bad for Venus though, oddly enough. I hate her for what she's doing to him but Jesus, she's dying. ALL THE FEELS RIGHT NOW. Azzy in this chapter, though. I kind of love her.

YAY FOR A NEW LAPTOP!

YA JAXON
YOU DESERVE MORE
UGH VENUS IS SO FRUSTRATING RN :(((((

Venus drank her coffee as bitter as her heart
oh my god that line was
w h a t
that was perfect

AW JAXON AND VENUS ARE SO CUTE OMG
but there is a problem
bc she didn't put her shoes on oh shit something is wroooong

How cute was this chapter. SO CUTE. Jaxon is such a sweetheart, buying her wigs and making her smile and feel good about herself for the first time since losing her hair. I love him so much. I bet Venus is just so confused right now. And as cute as this chapter was, the end made me sad for both of them. Loved the update! <3

It was kind of cute actually. Very sweet.

this story makes me way too emotional.

YOU CAN'T ALWAYS BE IN CONTROL, VENUS
OH GOD
I CAN'T DO THIS ANYMORE GOODBYE TOO EMOTIONAL DONE
pompeii
bastille
you are the most wonderful person ever oh my goodness

Ow ow fuck you ow (I'm just kidding I loved this chapter and I love you for writing it)

"Don't call me baby." I remember that line from the original! I still love it and think it somehow fits even better now. Poor Venus, having to shave her head when her hair started falling out. Love this! And love the song you linked <3

God. Can this get any more perfect? Who am I kidding. Of course it can because it's you writing it and I am so jealous. I can't believe she's going on as if nothing happened, but I suppose that's her way of coping with the whole thing. This just breaks my heart.

ALSO. HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY! I hope you had the most fabulous day <3

OH MAN JAXON OMG
but happy belated birthday! (((((:::::
VENUS
JAX
O M G KISSY KISS KISS MWAH

okay after that ending, Jaxon's anger is justified
she should have told him head on ugh Venus do u see what your'e doing???
IS IT BAD THAT I'M HAPPY VENUS IS GETTING THE TAIL END OF ALL THIS ANGER

Favorite chapter so far? I think so! I love how the fight was kind of about her sleeping around AND the fact that she's sick and never told him - though obviously the last one's more important. I don't know who I feel more sorry for at this point lol. But I do know that I love this story, so much. Thanks for the update! <3
