The anticipation...even after reading this multiple times is just bananas !

You are THAT good!

Ooh, I love it. Since my earlier review "The Pussy Grabber" was grazed in the ear lol 😂 breaking news lol. It's so tragic because now they martyr him.

He seems fake, made up, a caricature.....donnie does and he seems also like a Centre baddie ..just fictional and evil. Mocks disabled people, hates on POWs, insults gold star parents, brags that he grabs pussies-rapes women and girls and men and boys, he is a convicted felon, he is guilty of raping E. Jeanne carol, had to pay her, he fucked porn stars, he uses biblical shit like the Bible to make money.... it's surreal and orwelian, he evaded military, cowarded out...but that people still love him. They are so delusional.

People can't be that delusional.

It feels like gaslighting.

It is gaslighting. Right?

Anyway, I love this. I need even more fics. I'm seriously stressed, drinking.

I'm not even in the US

It's just crazy.

He's worse than Nixon!

It's like ...I don't know .. crazy.

You help so much.

Ooh so delicious. Lyle is Lyle. Twisted, sick, evil. Beautiful.

I love this!

Oh my God. I love Parker's snark, she using it to disguise her fears. That's the Parker we love!

Jarod is the Jarod we know and love too. Everyone is in character.

I spent the morning reading this over and I still feel like I'm reading it for the first time. This might be my new favorite.

Look at you bringing the happy ending home.. or happyish. I'm glad they didn't have sex. I love smut don't get me wrong but I love this. I see that the readers were pushing this one along. I wonder how many emails you received, so you gave readers what they wanted all along. I think that's sweet of you. I also am glad that you do what you have to do now and let the story write itself. Trying to please everyone must have been hard for you. It sounds impossible to do that. You handled it all with grace and pleasantness. Bless you. Thank you for this beautiful story. It's amazing.

Ohhhh. Parker is so bad ass and still it's a facade. Just like the tv series. I love this story so much. Your writing and style is amazing.

I keep worrying that something bad will happen, something more. I hope Parker will let Jarod love her. On the tv series she is clearly so afraid of him and a relationship with him. That gun always there. When he grabbed her hand in IOTH ni that car at the airport in Scotland she looked so terrified and shook.. and she cried some too. I can't wait!

Oompff!

That's all I can say.

Can't get enough.

I love how we get right into it with doubt being cast and just like on the tv series Parker and Sydney wonder if Jarod has snapped.  THey thought he was addicted to drugs again in the Junkie episode and are quick to believe the worst so that was in keeping with what we know.

I love this chapter so much.

Oh boy. My first thought was Jarod would freak out about the truth about his dad but he doesn't want to freak out while Parker is still going through that hell and he's concealing and restraining his own reaction. He's a pretender. He knows how to do that. Yes, yes, Parker leading the PTA, choosing to be a mother. Oi, but that word. Never. Oi.

Ooh, welp, Jarod isn't wrong. She will get used to having a loving father but I think that would take some time. She's so used now to being dependent and having nothing. Yes, Jarod will manage getting into her house just fine because he always does and always has. I love that cute moment. My heart fills with joy that she told Jarod to stay. Shippery feels Mirage. Shippery feels.

I could feel Jarod's hopes sink when the phone rang. Ugh. I feel that. So many more Pretender shippery nostalgia feelings when Jarod sends that signal to Parker that it's really him and not his clone and that everything is ok. Parker is so bad ass to the end in this chapter, using all of that adrenaline until it was gone. She wanted to kill Lyle so much and I feel that, and Jarod would have let her and maybe helped her but he needed to move her to safety.
