Soppy is good. I do soppy! No complains from me you will hear. Or read.
Honestly, from the book, I would think that Kyle wasn’t there yet. He was more like getting his head around how his life would be with Sunny. But I prefer to think you just expedited things a bit. ;)
Again with the honesty thing, I’m a teensy bit disappointed. When I discovered your story, I thought you were going to talk about their future. After the book, you know? But you made a nice description of both Kyle and Sunny’s trajectory. And the future seems to be set. So I will take it. ^_^

Whoa! Blindsided! So, Jodi has a dark side, eh? I suppose I have to take a step back, about how Sunny was like her. A small one, at least. Her love for Kyle, at least, isn't in question, though. Otherwise, Sunny wouldn't feel like she feels for him. :-]
‘Ian wants his Wanda back and he doesn't care how she looks. Kyle wants his Jodi back and he very much cares how she looks.’ Not entirely sure what to make of it...

That was hard.
Leave it to Sunny to be so selfless. But that’s typical of the souls, right? Once you win their hearts…
All I can say is that I’m very happy to know things won’t happen the way they think, or the end would leave me very depressed. Just wonder what Jodi would think about all of it, if she could.

Oooooh, booooy! Meyer never hinted anything like this, you know that, right? :-P
That was good! I wonder what made Sunny so bold. Pure desperation? Or Kyle was right, and she saw something in his eyes?
It’s beginning to look like Kyle have some budging feelings for Sunny herself. And I’m reluctant to call it cheating in this most unusual context. Not only Jodi is kind of part of her now, literally, but, by the way you described Sunny and Jodi, they seem to be very much alike. Much more than Mel and Wanda, for example.
The end of the chapter was sad, but you’re following the book. And we know Kyle hadn’t give up at this point, so it was the right thing to do. Good piece, Fae.

Geez, talk about mixed signs! Right now, I don’t envy these two.
You’re really good in translating the situation into words.
[Report This]Date: 21 Oct 2014 12:18 AM Title: Chapter 9 - Right Here
Ok, now you made me sorry for Kyle. We are not used to separate mind from body, are we? Specially when the mind in question is so much like Jodi herself.
I’m really curious about what will be Kyle’s mindset when they fail to restore Jodi.
[Report This]Date: 21 Oct 2014 12:16 AM Title: Chapter 8 - He came for her
She’s so naïve, isn’t she? But that’s another score for you. It sounds exactly like the way Sunny would behave where Kyle is concerned. Very good, Fae!
[Report This]Date: 21 Oct 2014 12:15 AM Title: Chapter 7 - Kyle's Plan
Fae, I love your attention to details. And I think you nailed Kyle, and Sunny, perfectly. That was a great rendition of Jodi’s abduction.
Now, I’m sure you’re a good writer. ^_^
[Report This]Date: 21 Oct 2014 12:13 AM Title: Chapter 6 - Snippets
I don’t remember. Did it happen in the book? She stopped dream about him? And what is it she was planning? Request another host? Anyway, poor thing.
Well, at least you showed Kyle acknowledging Wanda’s worth. Thanks for that. And for glossing over his monumental attempted mistake.
[Report This]Date: 21 Oct 2014 12:11 AM Title: Chapter 5 - Failed Again
Ah, if he only knew how little that “something” laughs. How much she thinks about him. Hmm, thinking about it, that’s a good question. How would he feel about it, at this point in time.
I always thought Kyle as a brutish idiot, at least until he snatches Sunny. Yours, I feel almost sympathetic with (still holding a grudge for him trying to kill Wanda). :-]

Damn, but that was hot!! You’re not making it easy for poor Sunny, are you?
You know, I’m beginning to think you’re a really good writer. ;)
[Report This]Date: 20 Oct 2014 11:57 PM Title: Chapter 3 - Surviving
Ah, a bit of Kyle. Again, good job portraying him. Makes you even understand what he tried to do with Wanda. Doesn’t make it less wrong, mind you, but at least makes (more) sense.
[Report This]Date: 20 Oct 2014 11:53 PM Title: Chapter 2 - Dreams
Damn, Jodi’s feelings for Kyle must have been overwhelming, if Sunny is affected like this, even with Jodi completely, hmm, eclipsed. If she was awake, like Mel, she would have convinced Sunny to go on a quest to find Kyle, even without any clue about where he is, I think.
Good job picturing her situation, and how the other souls worried without really getting what she was going through, Fairy.
[Report This]Date: 20 Oct 2014 11:38 PM Title: Chapter 1 - The Awakening
Beginning from her beginning, huh? It was a nice start, showing how Sunny assimilated Jodi’s feelings for Kyle. Really good, if short. :)

I'm glad I found your story on ffn so I could read the complete story. It's such a moving story. You brought The Host back to life for me again. I'm going to dust off my copy and read it again.
Do you plan to start anything new after this? I'd love to read more Host ff. Maybe Ian & Wanda?
Author's Response:
Thank you for your lovely comment. It is so good to hear that someone likes it. :) I've edited it a bit from then. Same story just tighten the writing up a bit. Ian and Wanda... Yes I'll have to think about that. I haven't written fanfic in a while, been busy with a novel, but sometimes it feels good to do a ff just to take the edge of the orginal stuff. Thanks so much again for your comment!
