This is one moment (okay, one of many) where words just can not do justice. I love the raw emotion in Parker's questions, the self sacrifice on Jarod's part, and the final line simply ties together a beautiful and yet twisted (but what else could we expect from the Centre?) tale. Thanks for sharing! And thanks to Mistress Jacci (haha, I said I would) for pointing out this fic.

Intelligently written.  Very sparse with details, but you give us just enough to give it the mood it needs.  Love the moral ambiguity.  The last line is perfect.

Had to read it again and it is just so good, what is there to say? I love it, it is so evil, and so twisted in the best possible  ways.
