Hey!
Fell a few chapters behind! I love the curious Jarod you are writing! It certainly woudl have been an interesting twist had Sydney and Jarod gone off together, at least for the first while.
I'm glad your muse is cooperating. For the record mine is, it's just forced to compete with grad school. ;)
a temper tantrum... lmao
Reviewer: KatieQ SignedI had to go back as i was sure i had missed something between chapters 11 and 12! Sneaky you ;) I guess this is much kinder than leaving readers with annoying cliffhangers for months on end. I think some of us could learn a thing or two from you!
I shall look forward to the Syd/J interaction that is bound to come out of this! And poor Broots.. life is a lot harder with Syd taking some of the flack! is that even how you spell flack? i somehow doubt it.
i was wondering when the inevitable MP/Syd/J chase would really heat up! I shall look forward to the next chapter!

Continuation of the Sleepyhead series.
Hey Rachell!
You did such a splendid job with his!! I can't wait to see how it's going to be continued.. see we told you would do and kick ass!! :P
Thank you very much KaiteQ! I'm glad you enjoyed it. Believe me this was a tough challenge, but Sarah kept me in line and with threats from Jacs re: the word limit, I was really sweating it.

We all just want some ANSWERS.
"I run. You chase. What if... we didn't?"
Hey TLM!
Another amazing chapter!! I loved the MP/Daddy interaction, and also Jarod's stuborness with Sydney! Well done! It's such a great concept, the whole dual time lines, it's a nice fresh story!
I cannot wait to read more.
well the epiphany seems like an excellent one to me! I am most intrigued... Parker's attitude at the 'real time' segment was very well-done, and i like the non-lame way you incorporated the scrolls.
as you were..
FABULOUS!! I really liked the new development with Raines.. i never for saw anything Armenia related.
The interaction between Mr. Parker and Lyle was excellent, but i really enjoy the Syd/J/Raines interaction. You really had to feel for Syd, consistently bubbling around in the dark.
Great chappie. Do i assume you are done with exams, or is writing just one excellent source of procrastination?
Yeah I decided to drop in a big clue to what's to come. :)
Thanks, Katie! Exams are DONE, though I won't lie... if I got a little too frustrated with Latin, I might have pulled this story up until I X'd it out telling myself NO, YOU MUST STUDY.
Reviewer: KatieQ SignedOooh... another fantastic chapter from an amazing writer :) I find our famous duo's attitude at the end very intriguing, and the whole thing with Jarod's mother, and wtf happened in Armernia? So many mysteries! I cannot wait to read more :)
PS - If every time I post, i get another chapter of this.. well i just may find the time to write a bit more frequently ;)
Why thank you! Yes mysteries galore muahaha.
Um one can only hope that that is true. Don't tease me so! Oh and sorry I lost you online yesterday. My computer had a bit of a tantrum and everything closed out and I was too scared to push its buttons any further.
Reviewer: KatieQ SignedVery interesting beginning!! I'm curious to see where you take us!
Reviewer: KatieQ Signedooh .. i am so very interested to see where you are going to take this. i have a feeling that things may not be as they seem, or maybe not, it's hard to stop thinking that everything is a conspiracy... but great writing and sorry for the rambling review.
Reviewer: KatieQ Signedooh nice one Sarah!
it's a great reason, and totally priceless!
great little ficlet
oh MP! What a fantastic chapter. Welcome back :)
The whole Syd/J interaction was perfect. It really underlines what probably should have happened between those two characters years and years and years ago.
You wrote it brilliantly, and i cannot wait for the next chapter!!
Hey!!
What a wonderful beginning, i especially liked how you made us think that J might have outfoxed the pursuit team.. and then all hopes were dashed!
You definately are a talented writer
Thanks Katie!!
(big, goofy smile)
It's great to get positive feedback.
Reviewer: KatieQ SignedWow MP.. this just gets better and better! It was well written and i enjoyed the 'rare' glimpse into the political structure of the Centre. Looking very much forward to the next installment!
Author's Response: You're way too nice, Katie! Now my head's starting to swell (runs to get a beta to puncture swollen head) :) Thanks for the review, and I hope you keep reading (and writing.)
That really was spectacular! Well well done :) It was sad and heartwrenching and so much more. Thanks for posting again so soon, and I cannot wait to see how the story develops from here.
Amazing work, really!!!
Reviewer: KatieQ SignedHey!
It was a wonderful chapter! You did very well with the center piece from Jarod's POV, and you had to feel for Syd wanting to help but not.
It will b e interesting to see how Parker's character handles her decision.. i sense some flip-flopping.
You have a wonderful writing style and obviously the world's best beta's a gal can have. I shall look forward to the next installment, and pelase take your time. The slower you are.. the better i look ;)
Thanks for the review! It will indeed be interesting to explore the mind of Miss Parker. Hopefully, when all is said and done, she'll still make sense and still be fun to write for (oh boy is she fun to write for!) I do have the very best betas in the world. It takes a special kind of person to take my twelve page rough drafts, pound them into something resembling a comprehensible story, edit and polish, and still send them back with heaps of positive feedback. Betas are my heroes!
I would love to take my time and make you look better, but I really don't relish the thought of being beaten to death with a foam poker stick;)
Reviewer: KatieQ Signedspoiled we are!! thanks for another chappie so quickly :).. it was a nice treat. YOu have a great/fresh writing s tyle and it's a pleasure to read.. the MP/J interaction at the end was very realistic (IMO anyways!).. and the full-circle concept from the blood sample/flashback was great.. and you can know see by this rambling disjointed review that my muse is not with me at all and hence the reason i ahve no posted in ages, as i seem to be incapable of stringing together coherent sentences, so i will end with a WONDERFUL job, and i cannot wait to read more and end this before i shame the english language anymore.
Author's Response: Glad you enjoyed! I wouldn't worry about getting *too* spoiled, though. My muse is back to being uncooperative. Hope when she finally gives me something new you keep reading. (there, shamed the english language right back at you:))
Another wonderful chapter!! i'm on the edge of my seat to see how this turns out!! Kudos to your beta's as well ;)
Hope the school term is treating you ok! If you ever want to talk atoms and bonds, you know who to come to.
You're too sweet--you're making me blush:) As for how it turns out I think people keep saying that because they're hoping I'll slip and say that in the end . . . whoops. Almost gave it away;) Never fear, I'll keep posting until it is resolved--one way or another.
As soon as I can figure out the technological monster that is Windows Messenger (to me, anyway), we'll have that atoms and bonds talk!
Reviewer: KatieQ SignedAnother fantastic chapter!! The bit at the end was particularly touching. I cannot wait for more, and please don't feel bad about the wait. I understand how hard it is during school to find time for the muse to cooperate, and then when it's summer vacation it seems as if your brain forgot how to work....
Author's Response: Thanks! But, I do feel bad, especially when RL interferes to the point where I don't even respond to reviews in a timely fashion. Ah, well. Enjoy the next chapter (which will be forthcoming as soon as I can get it loaded).
Birth of a genius.
Interesting! I am looking forward to see how you develop this!
- K
Why thank you! I'm looking forward to seeing how I develop this too:)
My thinking for this is to write it like a series of episodes; questions will carry over from story to story, but each will have a separate focus and an independent storyline (cause I'm told it's no fun to find oneself stuck in the middle of two multi-chapter pieces at once with fans clamoring for more of both *wink, wink*)
Anyway, thanks for another great review!
Reviewer: KatieQ SignedRaines and Willie capture Jarod. Horrible things follow. You'll have to read it to find out more.
hehehe tina made a fun
Author's Response: Yup, I did. But, like I said, half the blame/credit belongs to Kye.
Oh you have my interest! Very intriguing, I shall look forward to chapter # 2!
Author's Response: Thank you - I will get it out as soon as I can
Oohh - I liked :)
There is no point fighting the muse.. if it wants to not write 27, then it won't.. best to clear the air.
I really enjyoed this..short and sweet.. and something that could always be continued.
Excellent as always!
I loved the gym guy analogy.. that was hilarious!! Well done :)
Author's Response:
Thank you :)
It was actually this part that wouldn't leave me alone "My first impression of Jarod: well, he didn’t look like a genius. He looked more like the annoying guy you run into at the gym." Just had to get that on into a story. Or more honestly, at first it was one slighty different sentence but I got some help making it flow better.
