    I have a lot of respect for Shikamaru standing up for Neji like that. Where did Hinata go? Please, not run off with Naruto - that's one of my pet peeve pairings, Naru/Hina, Naru/Sakura....two girls that don't work for him, lol.

    Thank you for posting chapter 2 up so quickly. I really liked it. I kind of felt sorry for Neji when Shikamaru's mother said "How disappointing" about Neji taking Hinata's place. But seeing how nice Shika is to him made me feel better. I really like how this is playing out (no pun intended for the game of shougi ^O^) and how the plot is starting to melt together. I still don't know what's going to happen next but you have me wondering and anticipating the next chapter. Thank you again and update soon!

    *pump fist in air* Way to go Shika! XD I knew I loved that guy for some reasion...I am not sure if I like his mother to much though...I know she didn't mean it, how it sounded, but still. It wasn't very nice. I really like how you layed this chapp out. It was great! I liked the part were Iruka was so upset about the arranged marrige that "Lee" had to tack over his class, so he could come down, and just the though of a buch of wild, ranbucis, kids demanding answers from Lee. I can see the look on his face now, that was funny! LOL I loved it! Great Work! Update as soon as you can! ^___^

    Wonderful story! ;D
    I love the pairing!
    And Shikamaru is just the best. xD
    Really, lazy but nice.
    Neji should actually thank Hinata. Neji got such a good man because of her, after all! XDDD

    Update soon again!

    Aaawh... This is really great! I particularly like the way you picture Neji and Shikamaru when they were little in the first chapter, both cute and smart. The second chapter is also a love ^_^ Neji should really listen to Lee on this one! Anyway, thank you so much for sharing this story. Can't wait for the next chapter! XD

    Feh..I'm so slow.

    Yay! This is the ShikaNeji you'd mentioned in Starting Fresh-lazy- right?
    I was hoping you'd get around to writing it, and so far it looks really good.

    The marriage thing does seem to get used a lot for these two, but I don't really think that's a bad thing as long as you can make it work. I like the way you write, it's simple, but not dumbed down, so it's really easy to enjoy your stories, and I'm sure you'll do a really good job on this one too.

    [Incidentally...wouldn't Shikamaru and Neji make a great old married couple? I can't help but think that...]

    Proluge: Yep, that sounds like Neji >_>

    Chapter 1: After I read the proluge, I had to know about the whole 'engagement' thing and sure enough, Neji is the one who gets slammed with the downer. Poor guy. Oh well, I like Shika/Neji and don't worry about how they get together or how much the 'Neji's duty card' has been played, just write what you like to write and have fun with it. So far, I like where this is going. Keep up the good work.

    hehehe, that what I would do with this story. I love it! I think the fousted marrige, is great for this stroy. I belive that it is one of the only whys to get the cheareater Neji to consent to marriing someone, he would not normale chose. So I think it works great, and you have set it just right for him to accsapte Shika, not only cause of his familly saying so, but also for him to fall in love with Shika! And with that, the marrige wouldn't be forsted, but as a gift from fate. I like it...no, I love it! Great Work!^___^

    *Persnol Note* You needn't to give what I said in the last reivew a sceand or threed thought. I am not going to be using any of the plot bunnys from this fic. I don't need to, your doing it for me. *smik* Like Shika would say, its to troblsome. I am just going to set back and let you do all the work, and I am just going to injoy the great story. :p

    You really are do a great job on this fic. I love it! As all your other works. I hope my telling you about the plot bunnys, didn't make you mad or irreated. It was just my way of compenting you. As the saying would go: "The best from of falter, is imatsion." Am I right? ^____~ Great Work! Update as soon as you can! ^___^

LOL But this is not my story, it is yours, and I hope you updat it soon. I would love to see where you take this. I am very intreasted it seeing what happens. Great Work! ^___^

    *Personle NOte* Don't worry about the plot bunnys that sproted for me with this fic, I would never tack a story, or ues a stroy ideal, with out your or anyone else with out permiseion. I was just saying that it was a good ideal and would write one like this one, if you haddent betten me to it. LOL So ya, I really want to see where you tack this. Update as soon as you can! ^___^

    I wonder if I'm your first comment? I believe I am. Well, anyways I like what you've started so far. I'm going to keep checking up on this one. The plot sounds interesting so far even though I have no idea what is going to come next. I like stories like that. Also, it makes me wonder who Shikamaru's bride-to-be will be? Please update as soon as you can. Thank you.
