Wow! I love the history that you gave Kyle- seemed fitting and again, I can't say enough how well you've captured our Kyle. I love him and you did justice to him which, unfortunately, he never received on the show. Thank you for the great chapters and I do hope you will continue this.

I wrote a response to both of your reviews but they seem to have been eaten by the ghost in the machine. I hope they will show up eventually but until then; Such big thanks to Jacs for guiding me and helping me with the details that I did not know about, for I am still quite a Pretender Noob. Luv ya Girl!

And to Mirage; Thank you so much for the great review, I have always loved Kyle (my favorite character). He is extremely complex and I was quite nervous about writing about him but I have longed to do a story about him for long that it was inevitable that sooner or later one would pop out of my freaky little mind lol ergo "Brains dissected on a platter".

I do have part 2 written, but I am awaiting Jacs final approval before throwing caution to the wind and add it here.

Once again thank you both so much!!

Much Love~Arls (TrekPrincess)

Congratulations and kudos to you, Arls, for exploring this very complex, rather good looking, and yet, under-used character.

The insights you offer into the inner workings of Kyle's mind are all spot on. I felt I was there with the characters observing, up close, the making of a "budding psychopath". Creepy and yet, fascinating.

You provided the back-story, filled in all of the missing pieces and you did it extremely well. I particularly enjoyed the shave, how desensitized Kyle is to the sight of blood and in general. I loved the bumper sticker, haha. "Kill 'em all and let god sort 'em out."

Another nice touch is his blatant indifference: Rednecks, gang members- it's all the same to him. *evil grin* The mental image of "brain dissected on platter" will forever be ingrained upon my brain. Again, it's sorta creepy but that is, essentially, Kyle.

Ah, and the bitchin' tune at the end. Very nice! I would love to read more so please, continue.
