Title: Chapter 1: Content

I'm not the biggest smut fan..like you. You say you don't like writing it but you are quite accomplished at it. This was tastily written. The plot, grammar, solid storytelling, and writing skill was strong enough to carry the story and strong enough to beat the smut.

 

If it had been tasteless, blind smut and excessive slang which always make me chuckle and is like comedy to me I might have laughed and not reviewed and it wouldn't have been a memorable read but you know where the boundaries are, and you're a wordsmith and everything I've read by you so far has been memorable and brilliant. Please continue writing. Perhaps you can even find it in your heart to write a sequel to this, a post transcendence update.

I had to register and log on to review you but it's ok and you are worth it. I've been meaning to register since I noticed and sent you email reviews but you haven't responded to those yet. Are you doing well? I hope you are. Please don't abandon me now! Steve and Craig's site has been gone for a while and it's like the fandom got smaller when there was no promised continuation of the pretender but only the reboot and novels. We have to keep it going. I love The Pretender. I don't want this to be over. I'm begging.

Title: Chapter 1: Chapter 1

Firstly, thank you for responding to my emails. I know you must be busy and I hope you are busy writing.

I think Parker would react this way. Jarod being sorry he hurt her isn't going to instantly take away her pain. Sorry isn't the cure all people seem to think it is.

We see her struggling because she knows he sorry and that puts the onus on her to accept the apology and forgive and move on and you're probably cringing because I know, and I know that YOU know that it doesn't work that way. It's going to take time.

Jarod's struggling too I see and he's right that she is hiding from him. They both understand what is happening and both are still willing to cling to each for support. I really enjoyed this chapter and all of the previous ones. It's a solid story and you write it wonderfully. Please continue.

Hey, this is amazing. The violence wasn't too gratitious and I think Jarod could have done worse being it's Jarod. Magnificent work as always. Dark. Plausible. I More, please?

Update your others too please.

Title: Chapter 1: Chapter 1

Oomph! Chapter 1 is wild out of the gate. The most Jarod and Parker that I've ever seen Jarod and Parker since TV. So happy that I had 6 chapters to indulge in.

Title: Chapter 2: Chapter 2

Broots is the normal one of the lot and I can see this happening because he's already said he was having a breakdown back in TP2001. Too much weird, too much bad. Too much is too much. He's bound to break. Because he's the normal one of the lot. I love the direction, your characterisations are always spot on. Chapter 3 here I come!

Title: Chapter 3: Chapter 3

Oooooh really smooth work. I love that Jarod is taking a nurturing role with her here almost. It seems to me he is. You're consistently smooth and fresh and I don't know how that's possible with a series that had only four seasons and so little real content, so few answers. I'm lucky to have found you.

Title: Chapter 4: Chapter 4

I'm blown away. Seriously. You really excel at writing like few others.The first paragraph of this chapter alone made my jaw hit the floor.

"There was no fierce rebuttal, tidy omission, or clever forestalling, and no loose adaptation. The unabbreviated truth spilled from Parker's lips all at once, like a dam bursting open, or a severe wound, Jarod mused, with the occasional impassioned spurt that indicated Parker was struggling to maintain equanimity.

Jarod was much too afraid that he'd fracture the tenuous acquiescence to stem the flow, ask Parker to slow down, repeat herself. He jogged steadily to match her pace, and quietly absorbed each gruesome detail."

I love that Jarod is in full agreement with Parker. That last sentence says it all.

Amazing amazing work, Mirage.

I thought the previous chapter was the best and it was until I read this one. You're competing with yourself. You're winning. Easily. I can't get enough. I love the library. You're a book person I can tell, and a music person. You really hit all the senses with your descriptive work. It's just enough descriptive work. Always impressive, Mirage.

Title: Chapter 6: Chapter 6

I love it when they work together this way, although they've never had so much time alone to do it. They do it well, and you write it exceptionally well. I feared they'd have sex and lose the plot but clear heads prevailed and Parker's already still resolving some remorse about endangering Jarod's life when they were kids. I think revisiting the past caught them off guard and it was a sweet, completely innocent moment between two people who still have feelings for each other. You handled that delicately and painted it as tender and pure. You never do what I think you might do. You've demonstrated versality again and it feels like you took great care to show they still care for each other but that it's something they can't explore right now. It can't be easy to balance the responsibilities they have now. They care for Broots, as well. Does writing feel like a high wire act? You don't seem to struggle at all. It sesms to come naturally for you. I'm thankful for all you've contributed to the fandom and beg you to write more.

Happy holidays to you and those you hold dear.

This might be my favorite piece of fiction of all time. How are you? No one has heard from you this year and I'm worried 😟😳.

I hope you are ok.

Take care.

Gorgeous, Mirage. You're holding things in balance well, injecting a certain delicacy. What seems impossible for me seems to come so easy for you. The descriptive work is stunning. A completely captivating read and this is first chapter. I can't wait to see what else you have in store for us.

Thank you for sharing your natural gifts.

Poor kid and poor Jarod and Parker. What a blow to them. Devastating. You write it with such realness and delicacy. Like I said in the previous review, it's captivating as your stories always are. I need more now.

I know that I'm in for one big time hell of a ride. Of course the subject matter is hard and that's a given. I had a hard time watching the Risque Business episode of The Pretender.

The Perdition ending of FON was my least favorite ending of your choose your own ending 3 chapter choice set and I understand and appreciate you giving us 3 endings so we could choose. I know you did that as a gift to readers who wanted happiness for Jarod and Miss Parker. It's just so dark.

I'm excited to see where this will go.

More please and thank you young lady.
