Felonaz 2007-09-08 ch 7,	abuseThat was, for lack of a better term, beautiful. It's been a long time since I've read something that was both highly entertaining and intellectually stimulating (kudos for making me break out all that college learnin' I sat through), but then again, a highly developed vocabulary has always been a weakness of mine. You have a very engaging style of writing, and while I'm sad that there are no more chapters in the works (I know that a happily-ever-after ending would be hoping for far too much), I am glad that I came upon Ronin after it was completed, because it means that I could read the whole thing in one fell swoop, and allow myself to be caught up in the feeling behind the words. I confess that I adore the way your wrote Lex (not much of a confession, but still) as a savvy businessman as well as a somewhat lewd 'confidant' and Chloe's last tie to her old life. For some reason he just seems much more alive in this story than in some others I have read and attempted to write. Also, major major kudos for the heartbreaking ending. This may sound really weird, but I adore the sad gut-wrenching finales to literature and film -- much more so than the more socially acceptable 'fluffy' endings. I guess I have a sort of realist bend to my outlook on life, and a well-written tear-jerker is well appreciated, especially after a mainly happy-go-lucky plot. So yeah. Basically: awesome job, keep up the phenomenal work!
FalseEyelashes 2006-04-13 ch 7,	abuseThis has to be one of my all time favorite Chloe/Lex stories. It is simply fantastic. I read this on another site (I don't recall which one) and I loved it then, and I still do. Your characterizations are fantastic, the emotions between the two of them are real rather than cloying and unbelievable. Great story.
Lynx16 2005-06-27 ch 7,	abusethis is one of the best pieces of fanfiction i have ever read. the characters meld together seamless, the dialogue is perfect. you have a real talent for this. you broke me heart at the end. while i don't appreciate this, i m so glad i had the oppertunity to have my heart broken by such a beautiful story. it didn't come out bass-ackwards, i assure you.
Lrnd 2005-04-25 ch 7,	abuseAMAZING story ... oh wow
ShyIntrovert 2005-02-21 ch 7,	abuseI loved this fic. Its so very true to the characters that you can almost picture them. On another note, though, this one seems to cry out for a sequal. Please. It's so real to me that I want it to have a happier ending :)
Clannadlvr 2005-02-07 ch 7,	abuseI just can't form the words to dicus your writing...but I'll try. The descriptives you use in Ronin are like a sumptuous feast of the five senses. It's been a long time since I've felt so grounded in a story I've read. I actually felt like I was at the Daily Planet with Chloe...drinking scotch with Lex...etc. Absolutely fantastic writing. And your characterization is right on the mark-- we've seen Chloe, on SV, get so caught up in breaking the story that she doesn't realize the consequences. In Ronin, you've provided an excellent example of how, when Chloe chooses the story as most important, her security, safety, and even love can be affected. And Lex's playing of the game...breaking down...finally letting someone see the "real Lex" and having to send her away...part and parcel with the tortured billionaire. Excellent, Excellent work. I'm just agog.
Nimitz4 2005-01-26 ch 7,	abuseJust as well this is a written response, because words would fail me over the phone :) This is so beautiful, and honest and right - I have a heartache just knowing that I reached the end of the story...and that there wouldn't be any more chance of following their story on. You amaze me :) More Chlex please - oh btw I love love love the other one (Nice Car) as well!
B.L.A. the Mouse 2004-12-06 ch 7, anon.	abuseThat was great. You captured Lex and Chloe, and how they'd interact in a setting like this.
Jewel 2004-11-30 ch 7, anon.	abuseThat was really very good. In fact it was great. There are not many lex/chloe stories out there that I like. They are well written, but not attractive. I love the Lex that you've created. Chloe isn't half bad either. Some authors tend to make her too snarky and annoying. You've got the balance figured out just right. Please update soon.
dawnslight03 2004-11-29 ch 1,	abuseyou're a wonderful writer. witty and fast paced. i love what i've read so far. i hope to find time to read the rest soon.
autumngold 2004-11-09 ch 1, anon.	abuseOh, I love this story!! Please let there be more!! The Chlex dynamic is wonderful!!
campbti 2004-11-08 ch 4, anon.	abuseJust amazing, I just caught up and I have o say this is one of the most interesting stories I've read in a long time. The way you tell it is so intriguing. The sex scenes, I completely felt them and you didn't really say anything specific, BRILLIANT. I look forward to more. Again just really great work.
CAMPBTI 2004-11-07 ch 1, anon.	abuseJust finished chapter 1, and loved it. Your writing style is beautiful and lush. I feel as if I can see her surroundings. I am interested in seeing how you treat Chloe and Lex this being 4 years forward. Can't wait to read more. Great work.
tehzo 2004-11-07 ch 4,	abuseI'm so glad that Lex took the initiative by kissing Chloe. The "My God, you're like a narcotic," line was great. Lex's reaction to Chloe's article was perfect. While i was reading that part, for a second i was just waiting for the trouble to come. Again, the last two chapters were wonderful. I really enjoy your writing style. I'm greedy so i have to say please update soon!
lucy 2004-11-06 ch 4, anon.	abusethis is very intersting. i like all the twists that it has taken so far. i look forward to reading more soon. great job!
