Title: The Missing Piece

Whoa. This was an epic ride! I've completed this and am current with your updates and didn't know if I should review each chapter on its own merits or as a whole. I'm going to review each chapter. The read count won't hurt you and it seems to be the way it's done around here. Straight away I owe you an apology. When I first heard about a fanfic I had low expectations but you blew my mind with the stylistic features and descriptive work and a rawness that is sharp enough to cut bone. I read this and knew immediately you were revisiting the woman who arrested Jarod and was stoked. What a stroke of genius to show us how these people who had their lives changed forever by Jarod and Parker. I love that you love this show enough and that you know this show well enough to pay this homage to the minor characters and not just the major ones. This could easily be an episode of The Pretender. For me it IS an episode of The Pretender and that's the highest compliment I can give. I love this series! That final sentence cements your epiceness: "He hoped—and feared—it was."

It seems that Jarod once again hears Miss Parker telling another man that she doesn't want to hurt him... so much like Thomas. I am presuming that Jarod and Syd had her on speaker phone. If I'm wrong don't correct me. :) I love how this opens with a guest character and every mum's concerns. The way you close this chapter tho is briliant. Jarod hopes and fears it's the same little girl. Ohhh my heart.

Can't get enough Mirage. So many feels in this one. I know Jarod's hurting but he does the right thing and sorry not sorry I don't blame Parker. Give the woman a medal already. More please?

YOU WOULD WALK PAST Michael T Weiss and not realize it. 2 flipping times! Mirage. What is wrong with you?! Are you crazy?!!! Some women would be all over that man!! Why not a selfie? Why don't you selfie? Or autograph? Come on. You just pull him aside and ask him to give you one. You've never taken a selfie and you have never asked anyone for an autograph??!! SO.... Michael COULD BE YOUR FIRST! lol. Don't kill me lol.. but ..You got to get really close to him. real close and smile really big! Ask really nice for an autography and he'll give IT to you. Ok so now I want to meet your "significant man" who has got you blind to other men. You must be really in love or something. So I know I already reviewed this but I have just read your author response to my review of Who will guard the guards and I had to respond to that. Your response was epic and so funny. OMG. Sorry. But yes, I do love this chapter. It's worth another review. Update soon!!

Title: The Missing Piece

Ive been thinking about this so much. The song that Jarod pulled the cord on is RULE THE WORLD by Peter Cetera...you referenced that song without naming it in Circles Of Hell...and I just put the clues together and finally found the song. It's really good! I love the song now. and the part about the 'sweat and the tears...and "someday when I rule the world, gonna stand by you, love you all I can" GOOD STUFF> and Jarod is supposed to be the chosen one. DO you like the song? Do you like Peter Cetera? I can never tell with you. I just discover Peter Cetera thanks to you. I like 'Do you love me that much' too and it could be a Jarod Parker song "can you find it in your heart.. let me go and give me up...do you love me that much" so sad. I'm totally a fan now. I have to read circles of hell again now. BUT FIRST>.. the song RULE THE WORLD was playing the whole time Jarod was in the hacienda and he didn't pull the plug until after the final "oh don't give up on me" and then silence...but the song is nearly over then anyway. lol. So tell me if like these songs. Great story as always. I bow to you!



Author's Response:

Do I like those songs? Er. Mm. I wish you hadn't asked. Certain compositions cause nausea and a general sense of unwell-ness (those two songs included). I refer to it as my music anomaly; it's not limited to those two tunes or that one artist/genre (because that would be too easy, and life can't be easy, now can it?). There is a scientific explanation; music can even trigger seizures in some listeners (at least I've never had a seizure) (yet). I do like him; he was Chicago's bassist and front-man (for a while, but no longer) (I think?), and while the band is before my time, the early albums are kind of awesome (25 or 6 to 4) (they had some epic brass).

I must state clearly for future reference: you should not look to my fics for music recommendations (you shouldn't look at some of my fics period, particularly Circles, which I haven't even read) (and that's why it's still littered with typos). Thanks for reading and reviewing and playing along.

"Life goes on"... The saddest words to be spoken, yet so true right now. Thank you indeed for posting another piece of fiction for us to escape, if only for a moment, the horrors of the world.

Title: The Missing Piece

I love all of your updates and I need more!!! I wanted to respond because in my other review..I hope I didn't stress you out or anything...and I always imagined you with a huge crowd of friends and family. You really are a Mirage. I'm sorry things are complicated with your family but I know you have your reasons if you don't see them much..but yay for childhood sweethearts. I always imagined you with alot of men lol kind of like Miss Parker is slutty in the novels...but wow you've been with only one man since you were a little girl...that's..... oh my GOD that could have been Jarod and Parker....they were like childhood sweethearts too!!!! I think that's sweet and cuts down on alot of complications and baggage. I wonder what your secret is to keeping him...and keeping the relationship going. I had you pegged as out dancing and clubbing. I figured you were extroverted and outgoing....with a bad temper...carrying a gun...lots of men every night....but with a good personality.....really smart...and maybe an exhibitionist who likes to be nude and show off wearing really short skirts. I feel sorry for jumping to that conclusion lol. I guess it's hard not to wonder what you are like and what you look like. I sooo identify with your writing. So please write more.



Author's Response:

No, no, don't apologize. I live in truth and I do it without apology. A lot of men? Ha. That's pretty funny. No. I thought I was going to grow up to be a lesbian but then fell in love with my best friend (a male)- it was truly appalling. Oh, now. Miss Parker and Jarod weren't childhood sweethearts. Not quite. We were friends first (he saved my life) and then best friends, and then we began getting serious (and everyone "called it puppy love"- and they were wrong). Tolerance and understanding are important, however, I don't feel equipped to give advice. I don't try to keep him. I think when people get clingy things get ugly. The secret could be not trying so hard to keep him. Follow your heart, and with some luck you won't go wrong. All that said, Miss Parker isn't slutty simply for having sex (some men are positively slutty if that's the case). There is absolutely nothing wrong with being sexual or having casual sex so long as both parties are willing and aware. No, I don't carry a gun. I'm not smart, I have an odd personality I suppose, I like my clothes. Nothing is wrong with short skirts. Wear them if you're comfortable. I like clothes. Hoodies, hats. I don't think I'm pretty or sexy or cool- if that helps? And I might be a prude. Wouldn't that be funny? I will write more. Thanks for reading and reviewing.

Welcome back Mirage. You have been terribly missed! This is another brilliant update and worth the wait. I know how busy you are in real life. I was kind of upset that Jarod was making out with the wrong woman lol but they were never an item during the series and she kept rejecting him. I get it. No hard feelings. I found it interesting that you described Jarod so well in EThan's opinion. "Panache in spades" YEs! You aren't a shipper, not a fan of Jarod but you still know how he's supposed to be written and you never stray from the character's character. I love that about you. Please post more. a Mirage update is a gift and is always welcome.



Author's Response:

Aw thank you so much, Miss Shannon. Right: Parker and Jarod were never "together" during the series. They've been making out with everyone except each other for quite some time. I know that other women/girls love Jarod. I think I understand. I'm not fan material. I can barely keep up with my own life and birthday. Thanks again.

So nice to see Kyle back where he belongs. I never believed that Kyle's heart would work for that little boy when I watched red rock Jarod. Hearts need to be on ice or the body hooked to a machine to keep the blood pumping to be useable but they expected us to think Jarod could save Kyle's heart and give it to that boy. This is more plausible. I love all the interactions and Kyle is his same old perfect self in this fiction. Please update soon. Merci!

Top notch writing Mirage. You have so much talent and passion....... and too much humility. Stop being modest. We all have strengths. Writing is where you excel heads and shoulders above the rest. Nobody does it better than you. What I find most interesting is your genre bending skills. Authors usually stick with one good fit but you wear all genres like a glove. I feel like I'm selfish for asking you to stay on and share your talent with us. Please stay and share your talent with us.



Author's Response:

Thank you for reading and reviewing, John. I'm baffled. I wasn't aware that I was too humble; I have no idea how to respond to that. I don't know what to tell you. Thank you for all the sweet comments.

This was perfect! Never have our TP characters been more in character than when you bring them to life the way you and only you can do. I love their dialogue, it is so refreshing. Every story you write I say 'oh wow, that's the way it should be' lol. Please update soon and don't ever stop writing.

I bow to you! Extraordinary, so perfect... very intelligently written. Mirage I'm in awe of your writing career! You've accomplished so much and kept me spellbound, and sometimes shocked but hey hey that's what a brilliant author does. :) The way you flesh out characters is miraculous. Miss Parker and Jarod when you write them are right there.....i'ts like watching Michael and Andrea interact...you breathe life into them like no other ever has. You should be writing the novels, or at least be a part of the writing team. You have a fresher perspective...you have The Pretender in your blood....in your bones. Can't rate you anything but a ten! Thank you for everything!



Author's Response:

Oh God. Don't bow. Not to me. I am being punked. I knew it. Thanks for reading and reviewing, Jen.
