I go away for a week and you update... just my luck. I love this. After the hell of a week I've had Mirage reading you is like being home with warm cocoa and a blanket even though I'm not home right now and there's no cocoa and my life basically is sucking. Thank you. You make me feel normal again and like everything might be all right. I've never seen anyone flesh the characters out the way you do. You write with clarity and the dialog is truly exceptional. It's like watching the dvds again and that's good because we'll never get that ending in a movie or tv format. It'll be books only. I'm going to say this knowing you object to it but the truth is dear is that if the ending is going to be books only I will only be reading yours. Your writing is top notch. Please more. Dying to see what happens next.

OMG, it's so weird that the story notes tell us that you were thinking of rewriting when things about Russia and real life started appearing in the news... and in your story the "leader" cancels already approved funding and process and operations in other countries to find and arrest the Triumvirate .....because today that rapist, racist pig in the white house just canceled already approved funding for children's health care...7 million of billion & so OMG...  start writing that like I don't know...like a tornado destroyed the white house and all the GOPigs in it and the "leader". Because damn... if real life is going to keep copying your work...you know... you should help us out Mirage. Have a special prosecutor like totally take him out... and Pence too because we don't religious freaks up in the house either.

Funny thing, Michael T. Weiss in an interview said he'd like to play Dick Cheney, a machevellian ... and now I think he could totally play RapistTrump. He's already played rapists so you know.. it's all good. 

So anyway loving the story.. all of them. I want more. It's such a relief to have you here always.

There you ARE! I love this. I love Jarod's "what I mean is what the hell do you mean Jarod' lol.  Parker plays this out well, giving a calm face and she must be going a little crazy inside but doesn't show that until she's alone with Jarod again. She's loyal to her children and will do the thing that makes them happy and that is the best for them even if it hurts her and means having to include Jarod who really shouldn't have vanished the way he did. Her confession that she never fought him or he would have been in a cage is why she's having such a hard time. I love his reaction to learning that she could have cornered him when he returned to Scotland to chase the lead on his mother... and that's so plausible in the direction the show could take after Carthis.

Thank you so much for keeping these characters alive and relevant and in a way that makes sense. I will be grateful always.

OMG! Woot! Jarod wouldn't be Jarod if Jarod wasn't candid about sex and the "who are you" and then him replying with "someone who is..." is just like the series and yes it SHOULD be like the tv series in so many ways because this is fiction based on the TV series so thank you THANK YOU THANKYOU!!! These characters are... the characters and just like they are supposed to be and I love Jarod's confession. Oh my HEART!! Shipper heaven... even though you aren't a shipper. Thank you. More please please please?

Where do I even begin. This little dance Parker does of revealing only so much and then locking down completely and leaving him guessing is just the most Parker thing EVA! It was really tender and telling that she would comfort him when he did the most Jarod thing *EVA!* and choked up while talking about the craziness of the world and how people think kindness and goodness are weakness and insanity and he's right and this is exactly what OUR Jarod would do and you know that.. you know he's good and here you doing again what you always do and I mean surprising me but it shouldn't suprise me at all because you know him so well but you also made him so dark but that was also plausible and in character and omg I just can't with you. You're brilliant. Jarod asking about her confiding in his headstone because she told deadJarod she loved him but hasn't yet told aliveJarod she loves him and if that is not  TEH! MOST! MISS! PARKER! THING! EVA! I don't know what is. Really. You nailed it.

You know them so well and know what to do with them and I love it. Please give us more soon. How are you able to write so articulately and focused right now is beyond me with a looming possible 4 more years of doom. You just don't let it rock you at all. But I'm so anxious. A man that bragged about sexually assaulting women.. and there have been more than 2 dozen women that said "yeah he did assault me" and he's so vulgar and nasty and ugly.. just disgusting grabbing them by the pussy and trying to fuck married women because xtians don't care about adultery or rape at all and it is personal to me because I was assaulted that way... I'm a wreck. If not for fanfic and this website I don't know what I'd do. This is my escape. I've thank the web master here before and I thank you too. Really. Thank you omg I can't say it enough.

So I'm like in the first paragraph and when Sydney said she thwarted I said OMG I hope it means what I think it meas and it did! Holy freaking awesomeballz Mirage. More!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm definitely interested in reading more. I think Jarod might be more wicked than Miss P. I don't usually go in for Miss Parker having a name other than Parker but I like Max. You've got my attention. Use it well.

💯 ðŸŽ¯ right in the Pretender feels. I can't wait to see how this will all go now that The Pretender has returned to the Centre.

Already there is perfect tension and passion. Its everything I've wanted. Please continue. I'm so thankful �

Thank you thank you for writing and sharing you amazing talens.

amazing as always  ðŸ˜�🤩 and I have come to expect nothing less.

on to serious matters, I read your response to Contessa in the Lucanae reviews...what happened to your jaw if you don't mind my asking...either way take care of yourself.. I know you are care taking of  your significant person who is disabled but who will take care of you besides you? You have to rest after surgery, even just wisdom teeth extraction you need to rest.. I wish we all lived closer and could support each other.

Take care of you ok and we'll wait patiently for you to update.

Finally!! I've been wanting this since the 1990s. Hurt my feelings so much that Jarod didn't do more and that rapist wasn't even arrested on the show!! Thank you!!

Amazing 🤩!  I love how Jarod suspected her and how he spoke up to keep from leaving, and how true to the characters you are. You have amazing talent and I'm thankful that you share it with us.

Ooh. You delivered on Halloween 🎃 like Poe or Lovecraft but with some Stephen King and Anne Rice mixed in. So stunning the way you describe the scene, Jarod joining Broots and Haliah and being there...wow. Broots and Jarod both wantibg to reject the girl is dead. The way you say what happened and where the incision is without saying it. You are the best. Jarod loved blowing up Lyles car he would want to blow up his house too More!
