*sigh*
My only critique is that I though the dog was real so I was confused when you said the button nose was falling off…but otherwise it is really cute. 😀

*gasps* *runs to tackle-hug the dozen or so Webkinz in her closet*
Anyway. Enough of my antics. @ingridrd The story does, as @kate-flournoy mentioned, give off a sort of Toy Story vibe, but there’s a sort of open-ended thrill to it that almost begs for more. And I love, love the way you wrote “Pubby”. The childlike, wondering sort of style with…[Read more]

@Ingridrd ooh, I’m getting strong velveteen rabbit/toy story vibes. 😀 I love the open end though; there’s still hope. 😉

*blinks* Oh, well, I wasn’t expecting it to be so sad… *blinks again to hide the fact that she’s crying* Okay. I’ll need to read this over again before I can give anything constructive, but otherwise, good story! It’s really well written, and the plot seems smooth and easy to follow.
I’ll come back if I think of anything else.

@perfectfifths Yeah. I knew it was in editing mode. I left it that way because sometimes people like to leave long comments at the end of a story. Suggesting mode is much better for editing in general though. You can switch it to suggesting mode whenever you like.

@daeus Great! And I hope you realise it’s in edit mode rather than suggest mode. I’ll try to just make comments, but suggest mode is really helpful for making edits that you can later accept or reject.
