abuseOkay, where's the rest of the story? What else happens? This is an awesome crossover, you should most definiately write more.

abuseThis was great. I can't say anything about the characterisation of Jason, as I blanked all trace of that movie from my brain in protest for stomping on my fond memories of the books, but Sands and El seemed very much in character to me, and I adore you plenty for not trying to make Sands sympathetic.

abuseI had the link to this story saved for months before I finally decided to read it, and I must say that I am glad I did. I loved your interpretation of the characters, so don't worry about characterization being off. This is fanfiction; your allowed some creative freedom. Anyway, I will be adding this to my favorites. Thank you for the wonderful read.

abuseThe choirboy barely lets her get three words out in her faltering English before he interrupts her in formal but correct Spanish, saying that whichever language she is most comfortable in will be fine.
Click-snap, and he's back to full lethalness faster than most people would have been able to turn on a light switch.
Jason supposes that he should stop deluding himself and just admit that he's stumbled into the middle of a cartel bloodbath already
Jason doesn't hear him move, but the voice is a few paces further away when he adds, "Nice try, Sparky, but no dice."

Wow, wow, wow. Wow. You've got a way about writing, Mari. This is very easily the best piece of fanfiction I've read in a long time, possibly the best I've ever seen on FFN. The story flows, as does the dialogue and action. The way you interweave the unique local color of Mexico is impressive, and the interaction between the characters makes them real, tangible. Your characterization of Jason is perfect, from his split-second reactions to his lingering grief for Marie. I hope you continue this. It's beautiful.

abuseGood. I'm addicted to Sands, which may or may not be a good thing so I read this in spite of its crossover-ness and was plesantly surprised. Wait, let me check something...oh good: you've already discovered the brilliance that is Miss Becky. Nice job.

abuseIt is beautiful. At some parts, I think to myself, 'I hope this goes on to a sequel.' But when I reached the end, I thought it was just right. There will always be adventures and challenges for men like El and Sands and Jason. But for you to have made such a great beginning for the potential future that these three could live together (as comrades? or perhaps more?) is truly wonderful. Great work!

abuseyears of cigarettes, cheap liquor, and various other sins a-go-go.

This so rocks! A very tasty fic, interesting premise, great voice of the charecters...a bit ambiguous about how slashy it's going to get--is it? (There is gonna be *more*, RIGHT?!?)
