Mistress, you have again illustrated your superiority with this last chapter. You managed 180's in two of the characters and created another beautiful pair. Congratulations and thank you.

^_^ This was a surprising development, and one I really enjoyed. I had been wondering how Sai was going to explain things to Neji...
Ah... cock-whipping... hot. I've got to say, it did make me uncomfortable reading about Hiashi getting off to pain and all - seeing that he had abused Neji and had also been abused - but I had to remind myself that, now, this is *very* consensual. And that's what a lot of this D/s business is about, right? Accepting the things that turn you on, even if they seem wrong, and making them yours, and being allowed to feel these things without anyone *actually* getting hurt.
So, yeah, really enjoyed this chapter.^_^

you see what an amazing writer you are? At the first suggestion of the pairing, I was going...really? Those two? And by the end of it it was just absolutely canon in my head.

Hiashi’s story was definitely another wild chapter! You could have left Hiashi’s character as a simple black-white issue as a cruel, incestuous rapist, which he is. But that’s why I enjoyed how you wrote Sai’s repulsive reaction to Hiashi’s own childhood abuse, which not only resonated with his own abuse, but also as a reflection of the reader’s response.
Then those little scenes of Hiashi going into “dom-mode” with his directing Sai on how to cover up their own little “scene”, despite having a bleeding ass and a broken arm. Except for that one moment when he cracked, Hiashi really has the “control-freak” thing pat -- and maybe a thing for pain -- receiving as well as giving! Which is why at first I was surprised that Hiashi didn't have Sai arrested. But being the shrewd business person (and maybe a bit of a pain-slut himself), the public exposure might "tarnish" the Hyuuga reputation.
But what was really amazing was the sense of true compassion that Hiashi managed to exhibit for the sadly wretched Kimimaro – even inspite of the cock-whipping (ouch!). And I had to smirk at Hiashi’s knowledge about the players in the local DBSM world while not being at active participant up to that point, showing some serious “voyeuristic” tendencies (tee-hee!). As if he had been envious of Neji for quite some time, that he somehow, found an escape from “Hyuuga tradition’.

Amazing! You managed to make Hiashi likeable even after what he did to Neji! This is one of the reasons I love your fic. You never go for the easy stereotypes. Instead, you put up a thoughtful piece about how the cycle of abuse continues, and then is broken. Very nice!

Now that was unexpected. I had forgotten about poor Kimimaro, I'm glad you found him a suitable dom. I'm also glad that you didn't leave Hiashi as a bad guy, I like him.
