I don't think I could think of a nicer way to dislocate one's finger... I also wonder exactly what sort of procedures were taken for its motorizations to be so realistic... :} Needless to say, I laughed a lot. Thank you so much!

1. How in-character was this fic? (1-10) 8 while I enjoy the characters, I think Syaoron was the most ooc? Fai had a touch here and there as well.
2. How well did this fic handle the prompt? (1-10) 9 sexbots! Dammit this was a nice and refreshing take on a common trope. Fai's pain in everyone's gain really. It was handled nicely and I didn't expect one of them to not be a robot.
3. How much did you enjoy this fic overall? (1-10) 9.5 very funny. The movie references and just Fai.

I was confused a few times and had to back track to figure out what happened. And while the three were a lil off character, it was still good enough to keep reading on. I think if things were explained a lil better or if the writer put a lil more detail in parts, it'd get a higher score. I still loved to read it though!

OMG! At first I thought this was going to be a chobits-like setting, and then it got better! XD It was really fun reading it. Love how you managed to get Mokona looking like Mokona into the story. And Doumeki protecting Subaru from Seishiro! <3 The only thing I didn't like were some of the scene transitions. Sometimes I thought I had skipped a paragraph by mistake.

7 - They felt a bit off, Syaoran especially. Seishirou was surprising (can't say if in a good way or in a bad way, but it's Seishirou)

9 - Aside from the literal inclusion of the prompt in the dialogue, I found the subtler instances the prompt showed through to be quite clever!

9 - While the off-characterization through me off at the start, it was a wild ride through and through!

There were characterizations I thought weren't quite "canon", but I basically work with the assumption that we all write our own characters in the end lol. The one thing I would say is that I thought a lot of the characters had the same "voice" (as in using similar vocabulary and slang). If you ever were to rewrite this in the future, that is one thing I'd be mindful of - making sure that they can sound like individual people.

This does have the exact line we're looking for and it makes explicit references to the source material in an amusing way!

Overall, this was a very light-hearted and fun story to read - sort of a reprieve from the heavier stuff. I found the situations amusing and I thought multiple moments would have made me genuinely laugh aloud if this were a movie! Reflecting on it after it's all done, though, I would have liked to see a little more fleshed out with Kurogane and Fai as characters - this strikes me as almost an intro, you know? I thought there were some questions about them that weren't properly answered. But it was very funny - thank you for writing and sharing this!!

I loved the characters. While they seemed a bit off when compared to the Reservoir Chronicles, they seemed to match how they grew and settled in the World Chronicle timeline.

2. How well did this fic handle the prompt? 10
It was certainly wonderfully lighthearted. It fit the prompt well.

3. How much did you enjoy this fic overall? 10
I could not stop laughing. I loved all the jokes and one-liners you put in the story. The street performing was great! The Trek vs Wars dialogue was particularly wonderful!

Thank you for writing this comedic gold!

8 Enjoyed the fic. Could have been a bit shorter as the later chapters seemed a little pointless even if they were fun.

This was such peppy and cheery! I think maybe there are times when the fic seemed to be tethering on the line between inane crack-land and light-hearted and I wasn’t exactly sure which way it was supposed to fall but! Either way this fic was still so much fun!!

We're still a little sparse on votes, so I hope it is okay with all the writers to have a moderator jumping in to vote as well!

For a humour piece, this was very well-done. The dialogue between Kurogane and Fai was great.

2. How well did this fic handle the prompt? (10)

I was really thrilled to see a humour entry, and this story filled the prompt excellently. Could not have asked for a more fun and engaging interpretation.

3. How much did you enjoy this fic overall? (7)

While there was a lot to like (I laughed out loud in several places, especially when Fai first got himself... stuck) there was a lot that didn't seem to fit quite correctly. I didn't understand Seishirou's role, and could not get at all where you were going with that scene that included Doumeki and Seishirou. This fic would have been better for leaving that bit completely out if possible. I also didn't really know how the introduction of Sakura, Touya, and Yukito was supposed to be part of the story. I would have liked to see you devote that energy to making the most out of the 3 main characters.

But the main story of Kurogane and Fai and Blue Steel was a fantastic and weird one, and I got a huge kick out of it!
