Perfect new chapter. Crazy fast updates! You rock Mirage!

More please. I love all your fics!

Author's Response:

Aw, thank you so much, Michelle.

what else is there to say?  I love it. You really know these characters and your writing is elegant. Please update soon. I'm dying to find out what happens next.

"It's frozen" Broots is so great. You are the only author who writes all of the characters  the way they are suppose to be and the only one who writes stories that could actually be made into a series and that are plausible and I mean all of your stories could be too. It's amazing. Very professional Mirage. I'm glad that Lyle, Raines and Willie are dead and that they died because they lied to the Triumvirate. Great the way Adama's nephew did the deed as an act of vegeance. Damn it was perfect! Miss Parker's repsonse was classic Miss Parker. You hit it right out of the park. You always blow me away! JUst don't ever stop writing. The characters, dialougue, the plot, all of it. You are Pretender Perfect.

What an unexpected, and always welcome, surprise Mirage. I checked in to see if The Return was updated and was astonished to find that you not only updated Who Will Guard the Guards but you've also added a new story to your brilliant collection. Both are plausible and action packed. You have a real knack for writing. The original characters are wonderful, fleshed out, and the descriptive work and original plotting is second to none. This story is really fluid and you have a skill for  seamlessly moving a story forward and transitioning. I look forward to the next installment. Congratulations on the accomplishment and thank you for sharing your talent with us. Until next time Mirage...

I LOVE YOU!

"She'd left behind a loose end and it had just unraveled.  Unraveled."

"The gravel lot was bordered with wilted flowers that Rachel found eerily reminiscent to heads bowed—uniformly—in prayer Jarod had better be praying and was empty, save a black patrol truck."

"jogging beneath a sky that was the pale white of ash and pregnant with clouds the color of pewter"

You are a genius! And that's the second time you've had someone refer to Jarod  as a "prick" lol! Once in Nemesis and now here lol. You make me wonder if you hate him. It's still wonderful to read you. So refreshing that you haven't changed. Never stop writing for us. It's such a pleasure Mirage!

Love it! More please!

Great new  chapter! Thanks for updating so soon. You know these characters better than anyone Mirage.

Mirage. Simplicity and wit. Eclectic and grit! You are the only author I've read in any fandom to date whose work if of any sustenance and especially in the last few years. Your stories are the only ones in this fandom that are worthy of being a part of the Pretender series and that includes the two published novels Rebirth and Saving Luke. I've been here ages, read every single story here and your genius, and your talent is unparalelled. Mirage, you are the best! I am devastated that you aren't writing the novels with Steve and Craig. I'm honored that you are still here.

I'm still around but you are the only reason I even come here anymore. Happy and sad about it. :) :( Thanks for sticking it out with the original pretenderuniverse. I hate the new way things are now and Corn. I hate how the novels are words on a page and no flesh on the characters. I want you to author the novels!

This story is excellent!! =) Mirage you have complete command over this pretenderuniverse. You are a master and you write masterpieces. I feel so blessed to have you here.

Please continue this soon. I need to know what happens.

Oohh Mirage! I love what MP did with the pencil...loved it all!
