Summary: Struggling with the temptation to take revenge for a personal betrayal, Jarod tests whether he can forget one woman in the arms of others--lots of others! Meanwhile, he gets hooked on the intriguing perplexities of The X Files. (No--this isn't cross-over fiction, he's actually watching a bit too much TV!)

Title: Chapter 1: Part 1

"MR. Condom" lol. Love this crazy side of Jarod but he's so dark and statutory rape and rape much J? I jumped in on this part of the story and it's entertaining and rated r and thank the gods it's just fanfiction. "let's go again!" lol had me rolling. I remember that age. It would have been nice for the first time to be with someone who knew what they were doing. Now I'm going to read this from the beginning all proper like.

I'm really curious to see how dark Jarod gets in this. I've heard it's dark but with light and dark humor and I do like how things can be inappropriately funny.

Title: Chapter 25: Such Sweet Sorrow

I went ahead and read all of this story and I love it. Now I will go back and finish the review part.

I was all like holy shit when that voice of Jarod's said "why didn't you?" That is SO like Jarod. I could feel my insides clench when MP gets into trouble with Jarod like this. She turns her back on him after that and it's just like MP to be all defiant and be also like she doesn't care either way...that's how she did it on the show like she didnt even care.

This line is perfect for Jarod... "even if the truth hurt. He, therefore, had hurt her with honesty, time and time again, painfully aware that Parker believed he achieved a great deal of satisfaction from doing so. The game, the war, their one-upmanship. Someone had to win. And someone had to lose. And sometimes, they both lost."

I love this too..."He was annoyed by her oblique responses, her tendencies to palliate the truth."

Tragic the way she left. I thought that was it and then...what came next...my mouth is still open like o.

Title: Chapter 26: Square One

I have to tell how hopeful I was with this chapter...knowing what happens at the very end...or one of the very endings when I read over this again and thinking that if Perdition is the end and he knew all along what he planned for her. It's like Jarod was on the most important, most evil PRETEND of his life here. But Mirage it is so possible with him and it gives me the chills honeygirl and you gave some foreshadowing didn't you with Jarod's inner thoughts in this chapter that he knew she wasn't happy? I want to read over this entire story 3 different times with 1 ending in my mind each time and right now I'm reading it like Perdition is the only ending. It all makes crazy sense! Favorite lines...

"What." She said, abstractedly."I didn't wake you, did I?"  Jarod. Strange. Damn strange. He had telephoned her half a billion times in the previous six years and not once had he asked that question. "

"I guess you're wondering why I called."Mm, you thought it would be fun for us to listen to each other breathe?"

Title: Chapter 27: Bitter Sweets

Scoops. What else is there to say! I love the place and I can see it. Your descriptive work is far and away the best I've ever read. Perry Como and all those songs...don't know who that is but I listened to the music at spotify and it is good. It is very old!!

OK Reading with the Perdition ending in mind.....Jarod grew angry talking to her and he had fight it back and control himself to keep up the pretend. You are a genius!

BUT With the Irreconciblable differences ending in my mind it's just that he couldn't stand that Parker was blaming herself and was so low on life because he loves her.

It's just like one of those books when I was 11 where you choose different pages and take a different story direction and ending. This is on a huge level though Mirage! Do you even know what you accomplished here? It is amazing. You are amazing! And you wanted to all be a bad dream so you wrote the third Oz ending...I like that 1 too but I like Perdition more.

My favorite line of all time from this chapter is "Play nice, Parker. Jarod is unarmed. Yet disarming. " Beautiful. He is disarming isn't he  Mirage?

Title: Chapter 28: The Dance We Do

I dont' know how you did it Mirage but you made Zoe a person I can like and respect and I like how Miss Parker was instrumental in bringing about her change. Miss Parker would want to help people who can't help themselves, children, animals. Zoe is like a child and always been child like to me. I thought Jarod was insane for having sex with someone that much younger... or even immature than he is. Even if she wasn't that much younger, she is young emotionally. That was messed up of him. I try to pretend that Zoe never happened.

I like this song. I had to some searching to find those lyrics to find the song  those lyrics go tell. It's James Ingram. That song is so MPJ to me! Girl you know music!

I can see both sides of Jarod in each chapter. The Perdition Jarod. The ID ending Jarod. I can see how this would all be some wild ass  really bad weird dream too.

Title: Chapter 29: None so blind

Unconditional chocolate ice cream? Where do I find this at Mirage. I want to eat what you write about and listen to the songs you write about. I like research I guess.

Favorite lines...

"Her ace in the hole, that seemingly perfect little excuse had been shot full of holes, was tits up, taking on water and sinking fast. " tits up...I love your muse, your narrative, that writing voice!

"What the hell are you talking about?" She asked, her voice stentorian, unfaltering. She was attempting to recapture the ice queen demeanor, restore the flippancy, and recover the seething sarcasm that had aided her in the past to belie any truth. "

"Get out!" Parker shouted.    "Are we reverting back to that again?" Jarod asked, rather calmly. "Are you going to pull your gun on me, hmm, and order me out of your house, out of your life again?"   "Yes."   It’s just the way the broken record spins." love love love love

"And you know this," she asked, rather impassioned, with a one shoulder shrug and an expression of abject incredulity, "how? Simulations? Did you sneak a peek inside my mind? Mm? Don't get too comfortable in there, genius."

Margaret-"It certainly sounded urgent to me. I was afraid you were going to pull the door off its hinges."    Parker-"We left things," Parker explained, softly, "well, we left things the way we always have and I, I thought," She shook her head, waved dismissively, "it's not important."   Margaret-"You said that already."    Parker frowned and then rose abruptly."He's in love with you too." Margaret said, bringing Parker's movements to a halt. Parker-"That doesn't make this any easier."

You are amazing honeygirl!

I was all like oh my goddd! Mirage the dinner with Jarod, Sebastain and Parker was so amazingly written. The converstaion....I was just oh godd the whole time. I kept saying it out loud oh god lol! I can imagine it so well because of your beatiful writing. It was so much tension and then Jarod confesses in a away...that ending here on this chapter the way they came together and she tried to lie about her feelings for Jarod...oh Mirage! Big hugs to  you!

Title: Chapter 31: If At First You Don't Succeed

Ohh ohh wow there are no words. I am still speechless after reading this again!!! The sex is so hot and the descriptions. Thank you for this again. My favorite lines

Broots- "She isn't as tough as she seems. Hell, I only pretended to be afraid of her. I-I just didn't have the heart to spoil her fun." Broots confessed.Jarod smiled, nodded his understanding."The two of us have been through a lot together. I helped her exhume her mothers' supposed casket, I was there when she was closing in on Thomas' killer, when she discovered what had been done to Angelo and when she watched Raines execute her mother," Broots said, and then frowned, "and when her heart breaks, I swear," he hissed, "I swear I can feel it- I can feel it and my heart breaks too." oh you do love Broots I can tell and I believe he loves MP deeply!

"Jarod nodded his understanding, offered a contrite smile. It was the nicest tone anyone had ever used to threatened Jarod's life. " lol

Jarod- "You're upset."Parker- "No, I-" Jarod-"Don't lie to me." He reproved softly, observed as she drew a breath, averted her gaze.

Jarod-"I-I don't understand. I can't understand: I'm aware of the Centre's lies, Parker, and I know all too well the damage I've done. I know that this is still overwhelming and unexpected, but does the truth about how you feel," he asked, his voice textured with pain, "does it have to be such an enormous tragedy? Something so horribly unfathomable that you won't even admit it to me?" I belive that Parker will find it hard to admit her feelings no matter what direction the show takes.

Parker-"Stop trying to fix me, Jarod." She demanded, and then grasped his hands, removed them from her shoulders. "I can talk to you until I am blue in the face, you can listen to me until your mind goes numb, but I am still going to be me and you are still going to be you and the past is still going to be looming in the rear view mirror, waiting for one of us to take a glance." that will always be true no matter what!

"But she could.And she did.Several times, in fact. " SMOKING HOT!

Title: Chapter 32: Coming Clean

 

 

"Life wasn‘t perfect. It was life after all. "

“Stop it!” He shouted. And she did."

"You won't be satisfied until you destroy us both!"

"With the truth?" He asked incredulously.  "With the past!" She screamed."

Jarod-"They tried to destroy you, both of us and we need to know-" Parker-  "Must you finish what they started?" She asked.

"Parker wrenched herself loose from his grasp. "Don't you fucking get it!" She screamed through clenched teeth.He reached for her again but found his hands being knocked away and as if she hadn't already made her point, she retreated several steps backwards. "I don't want to know!""

"his elation suddenly waned: The telephone call wasn't been wholly unexpected; the fingers of doubt tugged at him on occassion, crept along his skin, tapped him on the shoulder hey, hey buddy, remember me? The past? and Jarod had chosen to ignore the wrenching in his gut. Until it became impossible to ignore it. He recalled the afternoon vividly; they'd had a silly lover's spat about something trivial and were commencing make up sex." yah to make up sex! I love the way the past tapped him on the shoulder and said  hey buddy remember me? Awesome Mirage. F8**ing awesome!

"Touch. It was always a big no-no, until the Isle where everything changed. Their fingers had touched by accident, and again when he had taken her hand in his, after, of course, first reaching between her legs to retrieve her hand.The boy had damn near cleared all four bases on the field in one go during their Isle adventure."

I love the Barry Manilow reference lol@ Too funny! old women do throw their panties at him! I like some of his songs...and some air supply to (they talked about that on the show during the Junkie episode lol).

It was great to see Parker getting ready to go kill Vince too! I love this!

Title: Chapter 36: Eternal Sunshine? (Of The Not-So-Spotless-Mind)

I get anxious reading this again. Wow. Holy hell Mirage! I like that she shoots down his confusion quickly and sets herself apart from Zoe...

"Jarod advanced several stealthy steps towards Parker, however, he came to an abrupt halt when, without turning to face him, she announced: "You can relax, Jarod. I'm not up to here to jump." She sang the words. "And if that was my intention, you'd be too late. I am not Zoe." She added. "I wouldn't have waited for the white knight to come along and talk me down." Zoe totatlly waited for Jarod to show up and talk her down. I will always beleive that.

 

Ohhh and this "Jarod's chest tightened" Oh Mirage! GOD!

Title: Chapter 37: In The Absence Of Light

Ok I like that she was dreaming again...it feels like some foreshadowing again...and still makes all 3 ending plausible! You are brilliant!

You explained everything so perfectly about sexual assault. you didn't just use the abuses as a plot twist, you didn't dismiss it, excuse him, you didn't overlook it, or tip toe around it and you really show us how bad it can get and how a persons mind and body I guess in way work against a persons own wants. MP is just a human no matter what armor she puts on for the world. Thank you for not forgetting about the abuse thanks for allowing it complicate everything as it should and would. Irreconcilable differences you betcha. There is no getting over that.You are real. My favorite lines...I have so many here a few...

"A white bolt of lightning split the purple sky, etched a jagged path to the mountain floor; the beauty above was a dagger sharp contrast to the ugliness lurking beneath her feet."

"A voice begged to be released, prayers fell on deaf ears as unseeing eyes turned to more important matters and the bad people crept past the omnipresent.There were more pressing matters: which mediocre contestant would win best Idol or who would outwit, outplay, and outlast- those people didn't even understand the meaning of the word "survive"." WOW WOW!

"What other way?" Parker asked. She felt the floor lurch, the room tilt; she blinked, dismissed it, attributed it to irrational fears. Until Jarod turned, presented her with the glint of the needle, fluid in the syringe."This way." He replied." OMG!

Title: Chapter 38: ...In The Abstract (Alternate Ending One)

This was too sweet and I know you'd like it all to be a bad dream lol. She should be apprehensive he is a pretender..it's like with actors. How do you know when they aren't acting anymore? I love this ending so don't get me wrong. I love Perdition most. That's what I mean.

My fav lines....

"Jarod grimaced, closed his eyes, dreaded- dreaded that he'd seen Parker at her finest today, and perhaps for many days to come, this, the apogee of her contentedness, her happiness. It's all down hill from here. And it had fallen to him- - but who else- -  to upend her life, and without any definite assurances that she would not kill him, hate him." I feel sorry for jarod here lol!

"Parker agreed and then chuckled when Zachary pressed his double fudge cone into Jarod's face. The boy then pointed a finger at Jarod, pulled an imaginary trigger. To the child's delight, Jarod fell backwards onto the grass.Ever the Pretender, when it was time to play "make believe", Jarod was the ultimate go-to guy. He never disappointed." lol I can see that and it is perfect. Thank youfor this ending for the shippers.

Title: Chapter 39: Irreconcilable Differences? (Alternate Ending Two)

Poor Jarod! He sobbed cos he wanted to let her go when she asked him to but he couldn't let go of her or she would have fallen and gotten hurt and he loves her but her mind went to the worst scenario and its so wild that the next ending IS the worst scenario. I don't know how your mind works you gotta be smart to pull it off like this! It's amazing Mirage and its not a 1 time thing either cos you still write the best stories I'veever read.

fav lines...

"What is it, Jarod?" She asked. "Barbiturate Brew, Tranquilizing Tonic, Paranoia Potion. Or is it all of the above, you son of a bitch? My God, not even Broots has to resort to drugging women!" OW! Damn that had to hurt. I love it it's what she'd say in that situation!

"I am not afraid of you!" She asserted, angrily. A lie, yes, however, it was an Oscar worthy one. "You're a coward, a coward," she repeated, incisively. "If you're waiting for me to beg, you're going to be waiting a long time." She hissed. "You want to kill me, Jarod?" She asked, and then snarled at him: "Do it." an oscar worthy one. Love that! MP will be tough even when she's not.

"You were always good at leaving" ...that kills me Mirage that she said that to Jarod. She still resents him for leaving her behind in the Centre when he escaped.  Ohh oohhhh my Goddd! Uh!  I love this chapter so much. I still love Perdition the most.



Author's Response:

Perdition? Oh, God. Well, it's a good thing I wrote three endings. My mind? My mind doesn't work most days, and I'm certainly not smart. I am glad that you like it. Thanks again, Chloe.

Title: Chapter 40: Perdition

I knew the first line that this would get dark! I didn't know how dark. I love that Lyle was in there and she thought to bite like Lyle bites human flesh. It's the pool scene that will haunt me until I draw my last breath. I could see her down there in that cold water with her head way down under holding on to that ladder to stay way down there and looking up into his face through a small triangle of operning through the pools cover. MY GOD MIRAGE! I see it all like a movie in my head.

I see when SHe colllides with grass and then the camera pans out and you see his knee in her back! It's really scary!! I could see his white teeth bite the needle cap off the syringe thing and then thrust it into her. OMG. It's just so horrible. All of it! It's the most amazing and horrible scary thing I've ever read. I dont know how. It is. I love it. She knows something is off at the end of this. There is potential for sequel.I have to know how is she living with this man who has erased her memories. I hope Broots finds her. Maybe she could be with him?

fav lines...

"After all the trouble I went to," Jarod admonished, "you could at least pretend to be surprised." I knew then how bad this would get. The first line of the chapter too!

"Flawless! Who the fuck is he kidding?" GoD!

You are a genius. You are my favorite author. This story is just horrible, perfect, amazing and special!

Title: Chapter 2: The Twilight Zone

Had to skip ahead to see if Jarod would take care of her arm. OMG! OH. MY. GOD! That is intense Mirage. It's kind of scary how well you write Jarod....DOCTOR JAROD. OMG. You wrote it so...realistically like you write everything. Your eye for detail is...scary. You weren't a fan of Days of our lives by any chance? You know Dr. Mike? Yikies. I need a cold shower. BUt I want to finish reading this first. OMG. Jarod with a needle. I can't get it out of my head. How do you write this without needing a cold shower all the time?

 



Author's Response:

Doctor Jarod- now that is truly terrifying (gee, it's difficult to type when I'm cringing). You need a cold shower? I'm not sure that I understand. It's okay: I don't have to understand.

You know: I've been asked about this Dr. Mike person before and couldn't recall ever hearing of him, however, I've since had a vague flicker of recollection (flashblack?).

The FPU [female parental unit], when I was a child, flipped between three networks (CBS, I think, and- well, I don't watch tv; three networks with soaps is all I can remember) and there was a man on one of those soaps pestering the hell out of some sweet, demure girl (who appeared to be painfully uncomfortble) and going so far as to say something to her along the lines of "you'll go out with me if you're not afraid" (probably a misquote/taken out of context based on my skewed perspectives at the time; it certainly doesn't sound like something a doctor would say and what are the chances that I heard him of all people?) and that man might have been the person you're speaking of-  I can't be certain. I don't want to say that I absolutely have no idea; I'm not going to lie. I don't remember what he looked like. The voice could belong to him. I was young and quite thoroughly revolted and just happened to see something I had no business seeing. I never watched soaps, and I suppose the answer is no, I'm not familiar with Dr. Mike. The FPU probably knows exactly who he is, however.

WWWWWWOw. Shit girl! When Jarod first drugged MP I thought it was to help her in some way...DID NOT SEE ANY OF THAT COMING! I don't have a coherent thought now just...but this could happen and isn't a stretch at all. Raines cooking up drugs and using MP as leverage. It is all possible. I LOVE the SLASH. Jarod and LYLE. That is hot! Lyle is right too that Jarod is just like him.  Ohhh and it's nice that someone addressed the lie that Raines and Lyle cooked up when Mr. Parker jumped with the scrolls. NOw I have to see if MP is preggers and if she will keep the baby. OMG Mirage you rock girl!

Holy crap! I love this and love that Angelo is playing the SAME music from when Jarod got into bath with MP. Just to be sure... Is this piece from the story... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ef-4Bv5Ng0w

OMG. That just added more reality to the story, to listen to that music on youtube while going back and reader that chapter. OMG MIRAGE! It is melancholy and just...perfect.  Very intense when Jarod confronted MP in Raines' cell and lol at Sam's "oh like the witch' (from wizard of oz right?). Great work here Mirage. What typos?!!!
