So I'm laughing my a$$ off with all of this comedy in this chapter that balances out the horror I've read so far. Jarod is so pi$$ed in this and I love it. But then Lyle comes in all like a child acting like it's getting away with something I got him! He was like before in one of that episode where Nicholas was kidnapped and he thought Jarod was going to kill him and he ran to Parker for help lol this is GOLD comedy brilliance. Miss Parker's response to all of that was GOLD! 2 sociopaths lol. Seriously I like your story so much more than the novles Stevie and Craig wrote.

oooh a scene I've always wanted one where Jarod forces Parker to see that she's helpless and better watch out. He could do anything and I always wondered why he only played pranks and juvenlie crap games with her when she's complicit hunting him down like a piece of meat. I feel sorry for her too sometimes because her mum did die trying to rescue her and all the children including Jarod but Jarod really shouldn't have put up with so much of her shite over the years. He can be a genius, do anything. He should have done some bad things to her. Here its realistic and she knows he can do anythign and there's nothing sh ecan do with her back to the wall like it is but she's still so strong. You keep the realism going and canon. I like how Jarod is going back to Lyle now and it's like he can't help himself.

These chapters are so small I read the rest and had to come back to review and that's my only complaint. ;) :) You write so well that I can see what is going on and I gotta say I love what I see. Jarod thrusting the gun into Lyle's mouth and into his throat is more awesomesauce on an already solid story. The little something xtra you put in is amazeballs.

Oh duh I'm a dunce. You've been regularly updating this and I didn't see where there was more chapters. Hooray for not having to wait too long. I started reading one story one time and waited for like 13 years for a sentence but it never came I try to only read complete fics and I see you have completed many so I can't wait to read those. I'm trusting you to complete this too tho. Please. PS: so glad that isn't Jarod.

I've been reading this and decided to leave a review and that's rare for me. This is profound and not at all what I expected of fanfic. You're a stand out author and I don't say that lightly. It's been a pleasure to read this. I'm eager to read more.

so not a Sydney fan but i'm worried about the guy. so plausible and scary. i hope you'll add more. really want to know what happens next.

This is terrifying Mirage I just want you to know. It's brilliantly written. You are wordsmith and an amazing storyteller and narrator. You know the characters and where to put them and how to use them. You do it all wonderfully and describe it and make it all plausible .... and omg I love it but omg that is why it's so terrifying and I want more. Is Sydney going to live? I know you love Sydney. I hope Jarod will come to his *@!&ing senses and help Parker find Sydney before it's too late. My adrenaline is like... boom. More. Soon. OMG.

It never gets old and it's definitely never boring or dull. Stay well and safe and write some more when you can. Really grateful to you. Cheers!

Freaking amazing. Please update soon. Update your other stories too please.

Woot! You've been missed. I know you like just updated lol but I still miss you. Classic Jarod and Parker going on up in this mad house fandom right now. The way Jarod lost it there when Parker didn't back down and he FINALLY stopped being oblivious ... oooh and then Lyle for the win. All of the elements are present and accounted for to make this Pretender Perfect. GIVE ME MORE WOMAN!

This is dark like really dark and I know dark. Not this chapter per se but this story. I slipped away from palling again with Dean and Sam over in Lawrence, Kansas to come all the way to this universe to read what one of my twitter pals says is really horrific stuff. I've seen things man. I haven't seen leeches though or seen anything about bloodletting until I read this story. I hear you got more darkness. I'm here for the darkness. Don't be alarmed tho. I'm only here to read and explore this strange universe. Man you have a strong writing voice and I had to keep closing my mouth because it kept falling open.  Will you be posting more chapters? Say yes.

Squee! Mirage update. I love it.

Satan. lol. I love it love Parker's reaction to it. She totally knew it was Jarod. Her shock at how Jarod hurt Lyle was surprising and not surprising to me. What really caused a big hammer striking metal sound to me was the enormous reaction she had to shoving Jarod and screaming no at him and trying to tell him to keep his shit together. She shocked herself and there's that unspoken no-touch contract between them. But I still want to know what happened during that weekend the spent together that you mentioned in an earlier chapter. Was there touching involved? Is that why she's so shocked? Or is she shocked because they didn't touch then either. You perfectly capture these characters and their circumstances and all of the nuances. I can read this forever. Please don't let it end too soon. I already want more. Thank you so much and stay well.
