    1. Looks good. Also very deep. But it's OCTAVIA! Will read

    2. Finally, Octavia without Vinyl!
      I never liked or understood Vinyltavia.

    4. …Well, that was depressing. Well-done, but depressing. I'm going to go listen to some happy music to get rid of this acute case of sad.

    5. Tears? No. I'm too manly for tears.
      *sniff*

      But, honestly, it was pretty good. I don't normally do sad, but I really liked this one.

    6. Eh, I'll be honest: this seemed a fair bit rushed. The characterizations, the plotline, the writing, everything just seemed a bit condensed. Also, I spotted a few stylistic errors that kind of got on my nerves. Oh well. Decent story, nonetheless.

    9. It was decent, title is what caught me; I love the Mozart Requiem, it's a personal favorite, but I digress, it is a decent fanfic, but I do have to agree it seemed a bit rushed.

      Thanks for the honest feedback. Any suggestions on what/how to improve in the future/specific things you had a problem with?

      It's the standard "opposites attract" approach. Octavia's a cultured, expensive-looking mare, Vinyl's trendy and energetic-looking by comparison. One deals in classical, the other in electronica.

      Fairly unoriginal but it works.
