Oh 😱 😯 this went painful really subtly, so I could see the sky darkening before the lightning ⚡ strike. You were really gentle about it and genius!
I love the nice transition from light with some clouds to full storm and flooding pain.
The Halloween feels are present.
Such a gift 🎁 🎁 🎁 to be able to read you Mirage.
I'm thankful 🥰 🥰 🥰.
More please?

Exceptional as always.
You yank my hand and I'm glad you're holding my hand because that was scary and tragic. I was sad for the kid.
I'm excited for more.

Welp. I didn't expect this but I should have. The foreshadowing was strong with this one. We never knew the boy and it's hard to miss him. For me. I know his parents beg to differ
..
And honestly I'm totally desensitized after so many school shootings.
Il love this fic.
I hope this brings the pair closer.
I know they will hurt for a while.
I want more!

Ok and I thought chapter 1 was kind of tragic. Pope on a Rope!
THIS is tragic. So very completely tragic.
But it started out as normal as any scene with Jarod and Miss Parker possibly could.
lol that ain't saying a lot but you know what i mean.
Her saying, "I know THAT look" when she told him about communicating with ghosts.
Jarod still being freaked out that he has a clone that looks and is bascially him.
That was hilarious.
And the clone. My GOD! Ian. He is too precious. I love his "I'm really nervous." So like Jarod. So honest and sweet.
You liked young Jarod better didn't you
didn't you didn't you??
Anyhoo. I love this.
Tragic but that's realistic.
Please write more soon. I need more of you in my life.
Thank you for this too. Don't think I don't appreciate all that you've given and take it for granted BUT know that I still want more. and more and more and more.
I love you!!
Author's Response:
I don't know. It dosen't matter. What matters is that Miss Parker seemed to like young Jarod more. He wasn't all that problematic when he was a boy. He didn't torment her when he was a boy, or sneak into her house while she was asleep, and naked, and remove her gun from beneath her pillow. He didn't wake her up at three in the morning when he was a boy. Things (just things, in general) weren't so dangerous when he was a boy.
I love you back.
Thanks for the r&r, April.

Whoa this is fantastic and it's fantragic. I didn't see this coming.
I'm shook. I love it anyway just took me a sec to process that one.
I need to know what happens now. I can't imagine where you'll take me next. I'm willing to go with you for real. Take me along. I'm down for it. You're one of those authors that keep my attention and keep me wondering for a while. You're right up there with the creators of the series. I've been waiting for their next update for 20 years or more. I'll be here ok? Take your time.
I'm just going nuts waiting. But seriously please continue. I love your writing. You know how to weave them.

Oh that poor child.
I almost expected this from the television series because the boy was just gone.
Born. We didn't see much of him. And no talk of him in TP2001.
Then Broots even seemed to think the boy was dead in IOTH lol.
You write children well but this cleans up the entire mess that would been made and you don't have to write kiddos. I think Jarod and Parker should get to reclaim the friendship without having to be forced into parenthood too.
It's not fair. If the series came back to television a kid would make us understand if they didn't have sex or whatever if either of them objected to those scenes or whatever.
But I would like to see them figure it out without the pressure of parenthood.
I love this. I love that they are embracing as friends sharing grief and I hope they will build on that.
You write beautifully. It's so exquisite. I want more.
Congratulations on this second beautiful and painful chapter!

Impressive as always. The death didn't seem all that unforeseen or shocking in the least to me. Broots made the comment in IOTH, "has anyone seen that little kid?" He suffered from underdeveloped lungs or something.
This doesn't surprise me. It still hit hard. Parker and Jarod's reactions, her words, the struggle to tell Jarod about the bunny without breaking all the way down until he heard her. Even I, a self professed ice queen in my own right, shed some tears. You write it so remarkably plausible. I need more. I have to see where they go from here. I'm here for it Mirage and I appreciate every word you've written.

This was a hard one. You really capture the agony of loss and the relationship, all the nuance and all of it. I'm in awe.
I'm so eager and excited to see what happens next, where they will put the pain and how they will pick up the pieces.
Thank you for sharing with us. I hope you will share more soon

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.

Oh wow wow wow. Continuity. Continuity. Continuity. I'm a stickler for continuity.
I love your Pretender perfect characterizations, the dialogue, the plausibility, the mannerisms, the Jarodisms, the Parkerisms, the Brootsisms, the Sydneyisms, your transition and descriptive work, the natural ability you have to tell a story and write it and above all I love continuity and you bring it. You brought it big time. I love that you're true to canon, the bunnies.
My heart is pieces on the floor and I'm gathering them up now and will get some glue. I'll make repairs. I love this chapter even as heartbreaking at it is.
I hope you'll continue. It's exceptionally out of this world amazing. Thank you. It's a painful pleasure to read you.

I do not have the words Mirage. You hurt me with this and you please me so much with this. They are like friends again, like children, comforting each other on the floor and crying. It's full circle. My heart soars after it has shattered. This must bring a necessary change. Please continue. Love and merci!

Whhoa. Oomph. Right in the Pretender feels!
This is going to be the thing, isn't it, the thing that FINALLY makes her do the right thing. I hope so! Make it so please please please. I love it when you write them together and on the same team. I love it when you write PERIOD but they are my favoured ship and when you do write them on the team you go ALL-IN just like you with eveyrthing you write and make it real and plausible and I see it and I hear them and I feel it all, all of the feels and I know you can do this. You've got this. Please please please. Give it to us. We deserve it.
Thank you thank you thank you thank you with every centimeter of my heart.

Ouchies!
"yeah, I know that look well" is a GEM. I love that the characters are always the same characters we know from television. Your ability to do that blows my freaking mind!
This chapter slowly takes a tragic turn. It's sublte and nuanced and my god you are amazing.
"but hope could be cruel, and the impact devastating after the plummet back to reality." How true is that? The way you describe the disappointment is exactly how it feels to have hopes high and then face the disallusionmnent.
It's a major disappointment, heartrbreaking, and you portray that brilliantly. It's masterful.
I'm sobbing all over my phone crying a teeny weeny bit, just drowing in tears a few drops of tears. It's too much you are EVIL it's ok tho.
More please? Please?

I love ths story. "can't keep up with car how will I keep up with a toddler" sounds like every parent I know. You've humanized Parker enough to make her relatable even likable without changing her personality You excel in that area and in not bogging down the story with a lot of extra unnecessary words and ..who am I kidding you excel all around in every area of writing. So addicting, Mirage!

Ohh. Oh. That is wildly tragic firstly. I couldn't stop crying when Parker talked about the bunnies. Oh god Mirage. That's some amazing writing beyond amazing. They are in each other's arms again this time as grieving parents. Any parent would try to find a different reality, anything to have their child alive ...most parents.. the good ones. Some parents are terrible but not Parker and Jarod.
It's brilliantly written. The characters *ARE* the characters. Oh, I'm excited for the next installments.
Thank you for writing and sharing with us dear author. ’

Parker can empathize with Scrooge tehehee. Noice, mate! It's really tough times for them and you capture that beautifully. I had some tears in my eyes when Parker told Jarod what their son said about him whispering that his big sis loves bunnies too. Jarod thought she was his big sis. She's his mum tho and Jarod's his dad. Painful. I could see it all happening. Gives me the chills to be sure.

Don't apologize. I love this. It's sad but death happens and the ghosts and supernatural aspects of this are brilliant. I know you don't believe in ghosts or any of that kooky stuff but you don't let interfere with the story telling. The way you put me in the scene, your ability to illustrate with words and bring the characters to life will always WOW me. You are extraordinarily talented and have natural skills. You have a relentless command of language and characters too.
I wish there was more now.
Thank you thank you thank you!

😮 😯 Oohhh. I've always believed that Briggie was carrying Parker and Jarod's child, and you have dealt us a blow with this.
Parker discovered his death by seeing him and helping with his unfinished business of saying goodbye to his parents and he wanted to give them the 🐇 bunny 😭 😭 😭 😭 that jarod gave him when he was a baby. I'm just weeping like Jarod and Parker now. The bunnies.. remember the bunnies that Jarod and Parker held when they were young? It always comes back to the bunnies.
You never disappoint. Not yet anyway.
I appreciate all of your hard work.
