This account archives my old Pretender fic from many, many years ago. The quality is somewhat low and the pretentiousness is ridiculously high. I think I missed the point of fandom, which has always been to have fun. I’m leaving these up for posterity but cannot speak to any sort of recommendation in regards to reading them.
Thank you so much for all your reviews :) My inbox is going nuts and it's greatly cheering first thing in the morning. I'll try to go through and respond to as many as I can after I get back, but I just wanted to let you know they're appreciated.
Reviewer: Blade Mistress SignedVery nice. I was amused at poor Broots having Jarod land on him. Poor guy really doesn't want anything to do with the capture, he just wants his gadgets. I liked Jarod's 'yeah, right' at the 'Stop Jarod!' comments because that always amused me in the series. Yeah like he's going to stop just because you say. I look forward to seeing some more, and welcome back :)
Reviewer: Blade Mistress SignedOoh. Getting interesting. Great work, keep the chapters coming :)
Reviewer: Blade Mistress Signed(Sorry I missed this on ff.net, but my adversion to that site is bordering on silly.)
I really enjoyed this. At first I thought it was Jarod sort of thinking about his affect on Miss Parker, but then as the piece continued I decided it was Sydney. Which makes it even more interesting because he's really an outsider to their dynamic so can see the effects on both of them, that they can't see in themselves.
I enjoyed the metaphor about her armour, so much is referenced to that in the show that I always enjoy when someone carries it through to a fanfic. I'm not entirely sure about her inspirative quote, it sort of reminds me of the "hang in there kitty" poster. I like the idea, but my own head is saying something of the "any man who falls behind can be trodden on as you rise above" sort of quote.
I skipped the song; I always do.
I really loved the end quote She walks into work Monday like nothing's wrong. She does this because nothing is wrong.
She's fine again.
It speaks so much for her character. She likes to think that nothing is getting to her as it chip-chip-chips away at her.
Very lovely. I enjoyed reading it and welcome to the site ^^ (Oh, and I hope this was critical enough and not too bow-down-before-you ^_~)

Reviewer: Blade Mistress SignedI remember this from the old archive. One of my favourites, especially the Emily and Lyle.
So happy to see it around again ^^
Reviewer: Blade Mistress SignedI'm really not sure if I was suppose to, but I got a weird vibe from this. Charles and Margaret are so desperate and they seem to look at the boy with such hunger. Poor kid, as much as Jarod protests 'you're you' he's still going to be young-Jarod to them.
Very interesting.
Reviewer: Blade Mistress SignedWell done. I had no idea that that pairing could ever work but you pull it off well. I enjoyed your take on younger Miss Parker and the gun. Their relationship was very well done and realistic. The part with the apartment was great. There are a few minor errors I could point out if you'd like, but other than that a great read ^^
Reviewer: Blade Mistress SignedHehe, yay Monk. And I'm glad that though you used Monk you didn't go to the dirty place. I'm not sure my brain could have taken it ;) I like Sam. How can someone who says so little be so cool?
Author's Response: Thanks Blade. Putting Monk and Sam together seemed the best way to do a cross over and not have it be confusing.
I really love this. Dark, but not unbelievable, and I especially love "The voices chant "Murder!" while he dreams of the light". Very lyrical and beautiful. And btw, it already didn't suck when I got it ;)
Author's Response: Hehe, thank you ;)
Damn you, that child really intrigues me. It really is a sign you've been on the 'net too long when you sense incest twists from first pargraphs, isn't it? Ah well, I really like this. :) Write more *hint*. Well, not really a hint is it? Just a statement. Write more. The child will get older and Jarod would want to meet it...
Author's Response: hee hee. yep, it's an intriguing kid...
glad you like
God, it's so simple, yet evocative. "Hey, hey", but of course. It speaks of childish innocence, golden age of comedy and the ease of which Jarod greats those - and becomes part of their lives - that he saves.
I'm moved. Thank you.
God, it's like you're right inside the character's head. You should write the third movie! And the 13th too! And every second one in between! Is it Jarod? I think it's probably Jarod, due to the difficulties he must have being a pretender, and constantly sucking at finding his family and being a genius.
*sobs* It's just... so good. Please, do continue. Else I shall cut my wrists. Well, not my wrists. But definitally the wrists of someone close to me who next falls asleep.
Best tP fic ever!
The suspense! It's Killing ME! And Making Me Use Random CaPITALS!
Symbol is symbolism, isn't it? I knew it. I totally knew it. Only I and a few others *get* the depth of this story. This is just so good.
This is the sex chapter isn't it? Wow, so hot. And blue. Hot and blue = the best ever.
Plz continue omg.
*standing ovation*
Author's Response: Bows to ovation
Broots is with you always. He's like Jesus, in a way. And also like the Flying Spagetti monster. <3 Broots. Go, Broots. Did you know that Broots and Miss Parker, and also Sydney, were so doing it? OT3, I'm telling you. I'm so glad that finally someone else realises it. Keeeep gooooing.
Author's Response:
LMAO
Reviewer: Blade Mistress Signed
I have no idea what that is, but I think you should kill it with fire. Precious, beautiful fire. Burns so pretty. So, so pretty. Mwahahaha.
I mean, awesome. So good. Amazing. Best thing I've ever read, and I'm currently reading Shakespears's sonnets (gayer than you think, more boring than you imagine, and dull. Not at all like this!)
Broots can fix any server issue. If he couldn't, the Centre would have killed his dog. And then him. "What do you mean the wireless isn't up yet!"
Author's Response:
I am not entirely sure Broots has a dog, so it would be an empty threat.
That is the reason why he is my puff daddy, cos he can fix my broken things.
