| Bianca Williams 2006-03-17 ch 1, anon. | abuseThat's a shame Ajedrez and sands was never ment to be seen with each other and another thing they don't need to be together, and they most definitly don't make a good alinance. |
| Mrs Lovett 88 2006-02-21 ch 7, | abuseI loved these ficlets, very well done as usual! |
| Brae 2005-03-08 ch 1, anon. | abuseAwesome. Very very very awesome. |
| Raquedan 2004-03-25 ch 7, | abuseif only that was so. hi becky, sorry- haven't reviewed in a while but the first period bell is about to ring and i have to go NOW. talk later. |
| Kate Swynford 2004-03-12 ch 7, | abuseIt's amazing and overwhelming how a chance meeting can change one's life. Sands is so... Sands: arrogant, manipulative, thinking he throws all shapes and that phrase at the end - "She would never have seen him coming." So evilly, bitterly ironic. Are you going to continue this? I hope so. |
| Kate Swynford 2004-03-09 ch 6, | abuseScary. And it could only get scarier for the boy. |
| Kate Swynford 2004-02-16 ch 5, | abuseI almost forgot that Bel wasn't in the movie. She fits in so well. |
| Kate Swynford 2004-02-16 ch 4, | abuseGod, that was ironic. Bitterly ironic - how a man can plan everything so carefully and be so sure of the result - and look what happens. Ironic in a different way - if this is your trilogy-verse. "Dumb and good-looking". :) |
| Kate Swynford 2004-02-16 ch 3, | abuse"Screaming would be preferable, but he couldn't see - oh god couldn't see - how he could accomplish that, so there was only one other choice." - this little insert is like a stab of genuine paim through all the bravado. The way Sands tells the kid to run - for purely selfish reasons, not out of any kindness - is so Sands, a manipulator to the end. |
| Kate Swynford 2004-02-16 ch 2, | abuseOh, I remember that moment. I never saw it coming. This is the moment where Sands is at his best/worst. This is when you start to beleive that he is so brilliant that he can pull anything off through sheer insolence. You've captured it so well. |
| Kate Swynford 2004-02-12 ch 1, | abuseA brilliant look inside Sands' head - a manipulative bastard to the end, but so very, very brave and strong-willed. |
| l-dhenson 2004-01-23 ch 7, | abuse/Only an amateur went to all the trouble of coming up with fake identities./ Love this, the layered game-playing, Sands falling for the more transparent deception and never seeing the bigger one. /She would never have seen him coming./ Irony is always delicious. (Oh, and I finally got my DVD after all. Got tired of waiting for delivery--got doubly tired of squinting at my coughdownloadedcough copy to make sure I was interpreting the imagery correctly--and just went out and bought the darn thing.) |
| l-dhenson 2004-01-16 ch 6, | abuseLove this chapter--the boy remains one of my favorite characters. He was obviously headed /somewhere/ before Sands came along, and I really like your interpretation and the way you paint his innocence. /Suddenly going home sounded like a very good thing to do./ I felt my stomach drop a little at this line, knowing that within an hour the boy's going to have a gun pressed to his head and witness a number of bloody shootings. Poor kid. |
| l-dhenson 2004-01-16 ch 4, | abuseI don't know which part of this vignette I like more: The bit where Sands decides El isn't much to look at on first glance made me laugh, because during my first two viewings of OUATIM I didn't think El was all that (I've since learned better). Or the bit where Sands works through his idea of achieving balance...frightening, and frighteningly logical. |
| l-dhenson 2004-01-16 ch 1, | abuse/Dying by inches, on the other hand, was hard work./ Yay. More fic from you makes me happy, even if I'm terribly slow in reading it. /A country to ** over in return for what's been done to me. Balance to restore./ I like this: a new kind of balance, this one centered on himself. Nice. |
