    @ Miss Bubbly
    Unless I missed it, she didn't write that they'd been together for a year. They're not celebrating an anniversary. They're celebrating Cloud's end of his first year and his birthday. If I remember correctly, he had only just turned sixteen at the start of the story, which aligns perfectly with the time frame, since his two week break falls right over his seventeenth birthday. Seph and Cloud didn't get together until November 1st--that momentous, serious conversation in Seph's apartment following the Halloween party "I won't give you favors, or help you get out of guard duty, etc." "I know"--so, it's definitely not their one year anniversary just yet, and they know that, since they made their one month anniversary very special (in that silly clothing store!) ^_~


    @owmyhearteries
    I finished the chapter now, and it continued to be just as fantastic as it started out! Cloud's mom is fantastic too and I really hate the other Strife women, lol. I'm a little disappointed that Cloud didn't meet up with his dad, but it's all good. We'll see that in due time. I look forward to the next part of the saga! Game on!!

    All I can say is thanks. You made my holiday with this and you took away the misery of being sick and coughing my head off, to laughing and snorting and having aww moments. Thank you Jen, nothing more need to be said about how wonderful this story is. As I have said, you have wicked skills and I eagerly await to read more! Thanks for a very enjoyable ride! *winks and hugs*

    Ahahaha, I love their banter, even in the middle of sex, it's so refreshing to see someone who doesn't take the bedroom unnecessarily serious. Your writing is deliciously entertaining as always. I am so very glad that I was mysteriously inspired to look you up today; I have no idea why it suddenly came to my mind to check for an update when I haven't thought to do so in quite a while. I had begun to fear you'd given up or something terrible like that.

    And oh my god do I love Cameron /so/ much! He's one of my favorite OCs ever!!

    Friendly pointer, there are a few errors in the publication, I copied a couple here so you could find them:
    “Poor you,”
    you’ve got to try
    There are a few sentence that don't really make sense. I didn't copy all of them; didn't think of it at first. Probably I was too eager to read the whole chapter before I go stuff myself on turkey and dressing and what not... anyway, here's an example; they're not a big deal, you write well enough that a sentence here or there that's not quite right doesn't spoil the mood, but if you're anything like me, you'd rather someone point it out so you could fix it.
    "down them while he was perfect heat plunged down around him." (not sure what this was supposed to say, seems to me you changed it during revision and something got messed up)
    "reached up to ran his hands" (should be "run")
    “Bein' on this road is nerve wrackin' enough without havin' control,” (I think you mean "without not having control")
    "if he could possible help it" (should be "possibly")

    "bass backwards" (lol, this should be "bass ackwards")

    I'm gonna actually stop now, because, well, I'm only halfway through and I /do/ have to go do the family thing now. *sigh* Guess I won't get to know what happens until later tonight :(
    I hope you're not offended by the notes I left; offense is not my intention. I just love your writing and want it to be the absolute best it can be, as cheesy as that sounds. It's the editor and the fangirl sides of me joining forces, which can be quite scary! ^_^


    Thank you so much for updating! I can't wait for Part 2. You asked in the previous chapter if you should continue in the same file or if you should start a new one; my advise is this: if it's a whole new plot line, start a new one. It's a good place to break the story, since the first year is over and we're likely to see things changing in the next section. Think of book series like Harry Potter that break at the end of a year or LotR that break at turning points. *shrug* maybe you have already decided, but I wanted to offer some input in case you hadn't received much. As always, thank you for your words!

    I'm so glad you made it back. This is absolutely one of my favorite stories. Awesome chapter. I was gasping for air myself when Sephiroth was telling April the train story. Again, welcome home.

    YOU! >:U

    I admit, I gave up fanfictions for a while. Took me forever to catch up with Kittens, let alone this one.I was so happy to finally be able to catch up with what I missed but only to go "Tch aww" when there wasn't any more to read. I know you had an adventure filled summer and I hope it has stirred up your wonderfully awesome brain into writing more for this story... because you know we're totally selfish and need this to go on. xD You know I love you. In all seriousness though, don't leave us hanging for too long; hope to hear that your next installment will be soon, after everything in life settles for you. Take care. *Hugs* ~Lamica Lee

    Fantastic chapter. It always takes so long for this story to update, but I don't care at all, its just such a great fanfic that the only thing that matters is that pure awesome just updated again. I'm so happy that Seph and Vincent got to finally talk it out again. Cloud and his dad too. I'm in the same boat in a way, I've talked to my real dad a few times, but I've never met him in person. The guy who I do consider my father though, has been there nearly all my life, so even though I miss the idea of knowing my real dad, it doesn't really hurt.

    Stores and characters that you can relate to are fantastic. Especially if they are stories with super sexy General's in them.

    I just wanted to let you know how much this story has fueled me over the years. I've read it more times than I can count, and it always makes me feel that unique brand of extreme sappiness mixed with severe depression, because shit like this just doesn't happen in real life. It's a story that I can completely forget about for a year at a time, and come back to with the same enthusiasm I had the first time I read it.

    It's completely out of character, totally ridiculous, hilarious, heartbreaking, and horribly dirty all at once, and I absolutely love it. I'm always thrilled when there are chapters out that I haven't read yet (this time, there were two!) but I love going back and re-visiting the other parts. Is it ridiculous to say that a piece of cracky-fanfiction has actually made a really big impact on me? There are some issues in Blonde Ambition that have seriously made me reconsider things about my own life.

    Anyway, I'm rambling and probably sounding slightly unhinged, but I just wanted to tell you how much I love this story! As long as you keep writing, I'll keep reading.

    Thanks,
    Miss Alise

    First thing to get out of the way is, I'm actually not a fan of Final Fantasy. BUT I AM ABSOLUTELY IN LOVE WITH THIS FIIIIIICCC!!!!!

    Man, what a night of boredoom can produce! I actually clicked on the Blonde Bonus Tracks first but hell, IT'S ALL A RIOT!
    I adore the way you write, your analogy is refreshingly apt (conga line of humiliation is never leaving my vocabulary again, and 'Run Bitches, Run' might have filtered through my own mind during running drills in National Service) although I still twitched a little at the wrong usage of wearily and warily...to sum it up, I laughed myself literally sick. Oh yeah, I threw up from laughing so hard.

    Soooooooo, awaiting the next chapter!

    I... You...hahahWOW. My love for this fic cannot be quanitfied. Do you have to like drag a wheelbarrow around with you to haul your ENORMOUS talent? I am really trying not to just blow squee all over this review right now. Because I'm at work, and you have better things to do. Just, you know, feel free to tell everyone you encounter that you have written the best thing ever. Because this? Is tru fax.

    I LOVE your writing style. :O Seriously. It's fairly similar to the writings of Frank Chin -- have you ever read his stuff? Well, keep writing... I really adore your work. I wish I could write like you... >_>

    I love this fic so very, very much--it's well-written, hilarious, and rather sexy--but that cast list just KILLED me!!! River Phoenix, so much yes! Steve Buscemi, OMG! And Megan Fox, so fucking true. I absolutely love your sense of humor. Keep it up!!!

    I almost threw my Mac across the room when I read 'this is the chapter before the last'. But luckily I read the entire thing through before going on a rampage.I'm so happy that Seph and Vince have started to patch things up.

    Pfffffffffffffttttttttt. I'm so stupid; I didn't realize you could review without an account. Now I sorta wanna go back through and re-read every chapter so I can give reviews for each of them. -happy sigh- Maybe one day. It's a great story, I'll gladly read it a million times.

    Anyways! EEEEE! I'm so happy that Vinny and Seph patched things up! And sorta happy that Cloud called his dad and bitched him out, too. And, omg, so close to the end of the first part! I might cry, but I can't wait for part two. God, I love this story so much. It makes me happy and is one of the few Cloud/Seph shippers I can still read without grimacing. I love their personalities and quirks, and everything you've done with them. You're amazing. Thank you so much for writing this.

    Do you have any idea how much this story has saved my sanity while studying for the finals at uni? Let's just say a lot.

    First, I was a bit surprised of how easy it seemed for Cloud to turn his insecurities around, but then I re-read a few chapters and realized I had simply missed what was happening between the lines. Love it when that happens - I like to have to think too.

    Speaking of being in and out of character, I'm so smitten with your take on the characters! Especially April Strife *grins* And seeing Sephiroth written as a human being is pure bliss, I tell you. Genesis and Rufus are hilarious, and I admit I like your OC quite a lot as well as they fit in so well and are characters less than props.

    Oh, and while preferring metal, you still have an awesome taste in music.

    Waiting for another instalment of goodies,
