Superior writing from a favorite author and amazing storyteller. You've perfected your craft. Seriously top shelf.

Oo. I don't have the words now. I have a processing issue and have to think for a while before I know how to say in words how I feel. This is so good Mirage that I have tears in my eyes. I think you are a romantic. I know you're not a shipper but you know how it is. The way you have Jarod talk about time and how time isn't a measure of love or relationships. It's just time. Just like that Culture club song says. I recognize my characters when I read you. You won't ever know what that means to a fan like me that has been so touched and impacted by The Pretender. You keep it alive and keep me coming back for more. I'm so greedy for this.

Exquisite. Another poignant chapter and I'm pleasantly surprised by the character devolpment and growth. I'm, as always, astounded by your prose and characterizations, and look forward to reading the remainder.
Ciao!

You've got the pages flying. I love your descriptive work and characterisations and all of the action.
Reviewer: Con-O Signed [Report This]Date: 12/04/22 03:03 pm
Bravo! I love this. It fits right in with every episode of The Pretender and is strong enough to be made into a third film. I can't even consider it a slow burn as the fire caught up with Jarod and Miss Parker quickly. They can't outrun that fire. I hope this means there will be closure. You haven't disappointed me yet. Don't worry I'll tell you if do.
I love that you add all of the mannerisms and gestures, all the signs that they are exasperated or irritated. Just wow. You're amazing. Well worth the wait, which hasn't been that bad considering you've been writing other stories and adding completed ones while also writing this. How do you do it without losing your mind? I wouldn't be able to keep up with that and being an adult too. You ARE an adult aren't you? I already crave the next fix.

Ahhh the perfect combination of thoroughness, brevity, action, drama, danger, and that undefinable thing Jarod and Parker share. Your original characters are fleshed out and as real as the ones we know and love. You keep me coming back for more. The characters are spot on. Gotta have more.

Hitting me right in the shipper feels with this chapter. It's so professionally authored and is a missing piece that is an missing episode. I need more.
Reviewer: needlepoint Signed [Report This]Date: 11/04/22 03:16 pm
we don't measure relationshis with time," such a Jarod perfect thing to say ...we measure them with love and their love is immeasurable. Thank you for this reminder and for writing for us.

please don't ever stop writing. I'm new here new to pretender, but already in love with the series... found my mom's DVDs and love it and this is another episode for me love you!

Amazing 🤩! Glad to see that real adult love is eternal the way it is in real life and everyone knows that these two have always had something more between them than what they show to others. The honesty is real and savage. I love how edgy you continue to be in your prose with no pretension or bs. This is the best. More??!!
Reviewer: Melissa B Anonymous [Report This]Date: 10/04/22 04:47 pm
OMG! I love this. You really eased into the Jarod and Parker aspect of this and did it so well. I was hoping they would talk about the past and reconcile and at least be friends. They are still in love. After all that time. Of course they are!! Thank you. I'm so grateful. You keep the series alive. It means so much to me. I'm literally crying all over myself.
Reviewer: Renee Collins Anonymous [Report This]Date: 09/04/22 07:51 pm
Top notch mate!! Your prose is clear and exquisite and this is like watching the dvds all over again. I'm enjoying the personal growth, how Miss Parker admits that she didn't leave him because she fell out of love with him and shouldn't be surprised that she still loves him. They just sublty admit their enduring love for each other, and I think that's probably the most beautiful thing in the world. That comraderie they have continues. I don't dare call you a romantic, because I know you're not a shipper and that you believe the two can function fine on their own and alone but Mirage this is really touching to read and seems to epitomize Jarod's belief that life is a gift and that love is always worth the pain. You always go deep. You're not afraid of going deep and being honest. I'm blown away here. More, please?
Reviewer: Christoph Signed [Report This]Date: 09/04/22 07:26 pm
Oooh. She has been shutting herself down hasn't she? Cos she's afraid she'll kill him? This chapter was the everything falling into place very loudly chapter and some of the mystery unfolds and I'm glad you're not like Steve and Craig cos Ima get old one day and we never know when it's our last day and I don't think we should wasting time dragging fans along to wait for more answers and then new answers and... I already forgot some of their questions so I'm glad you're here with the continuity or I'd lose my mind. Jarod is really sweet doubting his ability to ask her to give them another try after everything she went through and still has no real memory of. It's all reallly complex and you don't mind getting into the psychological aspects of the characters. You have amazing insights. More please. I'm forever impressed.
Author's Response:
I don't know. Probably.
It's just fanfic. I believe there were probably intentions to give every fan what they wanted. I think we should blame people who weren't fans. Yes, I'm kidding. Let's just play nice and be grateful for what we do have.
Jarod is kind of sweet in this one-- eventually.
I don't think it's amazing. It's just-- fanfic. Thanks for the generous review.

omg! Neuroreality is trying to be a thing right now and I think Jarod would have created it decades ago. Love how you. stay true to the series while modernizing it.. such a treat to read you..
Author's Response:
That makes sense I suppose. He's a genius. If there's an entire television series and the genius part is why he was abducted, and if they have to remind us in every single episode that he's a genius, then, yeah, he absolutely should have conceived all sorts of ideas and inventions that could be twisted and used in horrific ways to traumatize and kill people. He's genius and madness (and some good ol' righteous rage).
The reviews are the real treats. Thank you for reviewing.

oh my shipper heart! When Jarod cries after learning that something he thought up was used to make parker distrust him and that pushed her from him,..oh sobs. they were used by the centre to hurt each other it is true. this is the episode I needed and could easily be an episode it meshes do perfectly, and it's just like watching them. awe 😘 forever. more please.

Bravo! I wasn't expecting this to happen now, and if I'm honest wasn't expecting it to ever happen at all. I should have been. It's like Parker to want to overlook obstacles and go straight for what she wants in the moment and not care about the consequences. She did that on the series, attacking Raines and not caring that she could be killed for it, throwing out the background check on Thomas, the almost kiss with Jarod, and many other instances. Did Jarod know where she was going with her concerns and just wanted to hear her say the words or was he oblivious while she was confessing? The title of this story is Oblivion and it seems to be more about Project Oblivion and how people are also oblivious about many other things and I love that. It's reminiscent of how episode titles related to the Centre side of the show and also related to Jarod's side of the show. I'm intrigued and very curious to know how this will play out. Stunning writing. You've perfected your craft and I'm grateful that you share with us. Ciao!
