To whom shall I ship them?
There are many story lines/episodes that in my opinion would benefit from redaction but Donoterase stands out among them all (well that and The Inner Sense and definitely IOTH - I know you're working on those too, right? *smiles* And the ending to the show as well?)
I love the power struggle, albeit brief, between Jarod and old man Parker, that was well played, nightowl, and so Jarodesque "if you love her..." - but of course you nailed Jarod, you nailed them all! The flight, Jarod's thoughts, all of it, splendid.
Reviewer: Mirage Signed
You have an exceptional grasp of these characters and the way you write Parker and Jarod is- just amazing. And the dialogue is brilliant. "Bear bating" and "removed the teeth" (taking away her weapon) were both incredible lines but my personal favorite thus far is: "damn it Jarod, did you take all my clothes?" hehe!
Reviewer: Mirage SignedOh, so sad. Poor Miss Parker. "You don't have what I need for pain." But Jarod's words were great. "You're not expendable"- oh, nightowl, you make him so-- so like-able. Why do you do that? haha.
I love how well they communicate and compromise even if she is still moody and snippy. And it's great to see her well taken care for a change.
This is how that episode should have played out (Instead of him leaving her there to the vultures). This is what really happened and in my mind, will always be what happened. You got it right, and the writers- well, they had it all wrong.
Reviewer: Mirage Signed*sighs* That scene between Miss Parker and Gemini was absolutely the most lovely, touching thing I've read in fanfic history.
And then Jarod's "...still bewitching young boys.." - loved it but even better was Parker's reply, haha. Great give and take and again, the dialogue was brilliant.
Reviewer: Mirage SignedOh, nightowl, wow, have I mentioned the inclusion of these lyrics? Great, great job and very fitting. I'm only familiar with one DF (RIP) tune: "Lonely in Love" (awesome sax). I'm youtubing Iracus now (nice).
This was another excellent chapter. Jarod's explanations and the reservations he has were all perfectly done and I could just imagine the major's reactions. Also, Jarod's admission/acknowledgement/acceptance of his role in his and Parker's relationship (or lack thereof) is quite refreshing.
I'm pleased that he could step back and see the err of his ways, despite what his best intentions might have been for her.
In the show, he always seemed, well, not only unapologetic about his "slaps in her face" but also oblivious and even uncaring and just plain mean at times, as if he was tormenting/manipulating her and enjoying it. Bad, Jarod.
Reviewer: Mirage Signed
All choked up after that scene. That little boy is so precious questioning Parker about her own life choices, he's just like Jarod, "it's okay to cry", that was so sweet, nightowl.
Oh, and Rabbit Island. Good one, nightowl. The story is progressing beautifully and naturally.
Reviewer: Mirage SignedYou are not the typo queen, but you are the "damn, that was hot!" queen! Who knew that something as mundane and ordinary as leg bristle/shaving could be so amazingly sexy?
It was very cute the way she was only toying with him and then it suddenly became something bigger than the both of them and left Jarod aroused and fumbling- so funny, nightowl. You write them so well.
Reviewer: Mirage SignedWhat do you mean if you can keep our interest? Are you nuts? We want more! And no, nothing weird at all here.
You wrote that so well that I felt as if I was there with them on the beach and ow! That had to have hurt. Jarod doesn't always think, obviously, haha and it's refreshing to see him make a mistake now and again (ouch) even if he's making the mistake at Parker's expense. Ouch! And the whispering into her hair- again, I could see that entire scene playing out.
You do amazingly well with the details and painting us a visual picture. Oh, and the jelly sting was very funny, nightowl. "You weren't going to urinate me.." Haha!
And yes, you most definitely do justice to the show.
Reviewer: Mirage SignedYou've struck a perfect balance with dialogue, details, descriptions, romance, adventure, family life and that little boy- oh, nightowl, that was so sweet, so sad that he feared he'd be rejected. And I thought Parker's reaction was fantastic, quite reminiscent of little Miss Parker.
Also, I love that you spent some time on the personal conflicts brewing within these characters and their personal struggles and attempts to come to terms with all that's transpired and speaking of the characters, they're all spot on.
And I'm sure that Miss Parker would be pleased that she pronounces Brigitte "Bridgette", haha. Very nice touch there.
You haven't let us down and I'm quite certain that you never will. *winks*
Reviewer: Mirage SignedIncredible. I love the back stories you've given us, the story of Dannie/Einnad and the way you entwine the past and present, it's phenomenal. I'm still a bit suspicious of Berby and hope that he won't double cross Miss Parker and co.
And no, you aren't going to disappoint. Stop saying that. *smiles*
Reviewer: Mirage SignedI love the Beatles lyrics you included- very fitting choice, nightowl. Very lovely scenes between Parker and Gemini and while you didn't go into details of the wedding ceremony, the imagery was lovely enough, the descriptions were so well done that the imagination could fill in the rest.
Haha, typo queen? No, you are not.
Reviewer: Mirage SignedI absolutely love the idea of "family" rings, hmm, that was very lovely and yes, it's so nice to see that Miss Parker is still kicking butt and taking names- but mostly just kicking butt, haha.
Also, the way you wrote Thomas was very respectful to all involved, you didn't trivialize him or write him off as Parker's "whim". That was perfect, nightowl.
You haven't lost or sickened me, haha. You've followed canon, imo, and really, you can do no wrong, unlike CVS and SLM- they did wrong plenty of times.
Reviewer: Mirage SignedThat waa a remarkable move (the drug) and Parker, of course, played it so cool, as did Syd. But poor Jarod and Gem, left behind and concerned. It's a remarkable story, a lovely tale and you extremely well written.
You can't leave it like this- well, you can, but I'd really rather you didn't, haha.
I'll be eagerly awaiting your next chapter, nightowl, when ever you're ready.
Reviewer: Mirage SignedWow, this was very well written, so insightful, emotional and such vivid detail and yet so concise. And quite possible. I hope to read more from you!
Reviewer: Mirage SignedOh, wow! I'm so pleased with the "random" stories- they've been anything BUT random. BUT I'm quite displease as well, because it seems that all of the best fics are incomplete.
This fic is quite remarkable, extremely well written and with that ominous fog hanging over it. You've certainly painted quite the picture with your descriptions and details.
48 hours? That is so like Alex, so taunting, so evil and giving just enough time that, I fear, it won't be time enough for Jarod to save her, one of those "just in time to be too late" situations.
This has to be, hands down, the most evil cliff hanger in the history of literature, be it fanfic, fic, nonfic, etc. Please update.
Reviewer: Mirage SignedI would really love to read more, any planned updates?
Reviewer: Mirage SignedI loved Major Charles' acceptance of the child despite how he may have been conceived and loved too that they are all getting on so well. Great job!
Reviewer: Mirage SignedAn empty lair sends the gang into unfamiliar territory. The hunters turn game, while Jarod fights for what he thought he'd always have; His mind.
Oh, wow, you ladies had me at "Broots" haha. Brootsie, Brootsie! It's so like him to believe the leather only made those sounds when he moved and that it must be some Centre secret. Poor guy. I love him! Also love the description of Parker's pent up adrenaline, very nice detail there. Looking forward to see if Jarod is given refuge. Fantastic writing!
Reviewer: Mirage SignedOoh, just like Parker to make the play of having Syd's phone bugged. I love the tension brewing in this chapter!

Oh my god! Alex? I didn't see that one coming but hmm, very plausible that he would have been found by the Centre, re-educated and that Lyle would try again to "flock" with him, haha.
Reviewer: Mirage SignedNice. Love Brootsie's ohmygoshohmygosh, haha and it's always good to see Syd getting a little hot under the collar, not to mention a very agitated Miss Parker- very characteristic of her. And Jarod under Lyle's complete control? *shudders* Can't wait to click next.
Reviewer: Mirage SignedMiss Parker as a hissing dragon? Nice! Also, I like the concern that slips from her and I loved the twin's confortation but I am just a little bit afraid for her now.
Reviewer: Mirage SignedOooh yes, yes! It's always a blast when Mr. Cox joins the party and even more fun when that party takes place at the T board. Yay! And oh, Jarod- blue notebook? Oh wow and oooh, nice exchange between Parker and Cox.
