Pentimento 2003-06-23 ch 1,	abuseKick-**, I didn't even know you wrote fanfiction. I'm so glad I found this. It's glorious. The tone is so consistent and I absolutely adore how you go use pronouns to your advantage. But I don't think I'll ever figure out those matrices--it's been six or seven years since I even looked at something like that. Ciao bella.
Danascully2 2003-06-22 ch 1,	abuseJust wanted to do this officially... :) Like I said the other night, you did a GREAT job of getting inside Trinity's head. I especially love how you made it clear - though not explicit until late in the story - that her true addiction is to CONTROL. You showed that so well with how she perfectly and minutely MANAGED her drug use, and then transferred it over beautifully into the real world, where Control means learning how to bend and break the rules of the Matrix. I also just love this line: "But she has plans. She does not want to burn." Gave me the shivers. It's an angsty story, yes - but also triumphant. I had never thought of Trinity as using drugs in the Matrix, but you make it work REALLY well - and the way you portrayed her as a novice in the Real World was, I think, perfect!! I bet the Wachowskis would find it uncanny, how well you know her. :) Plus, you're an amazing writer. The use of pronouns and no names is a great device - makes the story even more edgy - and your description of physical and psychological details, especially relating to Trinity's drug-use, are brilliant. So... thanks for giving me the link! (And the song!) :)
sudsfic 2003-05-25 ch 1,	abuseAwesome. I love your detached style, it works really well for this piece. Great job!
sky vehicle 2003-05-20 ch 1,	abuseIf I ever find my old math notebook, I'm sure I'll understand those matrices. I remember when we started that unit I got so excited: "That's teh movie!" But enough about my dysfunctional math class, and more about this fic of utmost beauty, genious and perfection. I'm sure we all know who you're writing about (why else would this be in the matrix section, eh?), and personally I think you have her down perfectly. It's not how I would have imagined it, but her history as a heroin addict does explain some things, and the whole thing about control is amazing. Thank you SO much for writing this!
Nanatsusaya 2003-05-20 ch 1,	abuseO, fun... ^_^ Trinity is...well...you know... ::wink:: I am suddenly inspired to write about Birman. XD
Chord 2003-05-20 ch 1,	abuse... woah. Brilliant. Narie, this was brilliant. Your writing style compliments the character perfectly, and the background she has is vague enough to imply that it isn't real but concrete enough to make it believable. The reasons you've given her, from her need for control to searching for it in the Matrix, to how she clutches her arm to keep herself in check... she is one of the most believable Original Characters I've ever encountered in Matrix fanfiction... Brilliant, Narie. Briliant. ~chord
