abuseBut, of course, there was no miscarridge. She lied, and Joey was born. Right?

I like it.

abuseFor whatever reason, I found myself reading this again. It chilled me. Your talent is oozing all over this short, little story. I really like the short ones--if done right, they can function as a kind of blow gun, eliminating everything but the essential, raw emotions in a way that leaves you feeling cold, desperate, hollow. That's what "Than Meets the Eye" is about for me. Amazing dialogue and narration. Particularly this line here:

“Who do you think you are, Slade? Mussolini? Napoleon?”

Also, the line about Adeline's miscarriage made my heart beat faster. Really loved her in this fic. Vulnerable, hurting, obviously in love with Slade and yet totally unwilling to put up with his crap. The only thing I wasn't sure about was the connotation of "balked," but looking it up you seem to be correct.

You are turning me into a Slade/Addie shipper! And I think there is no better fic to start myself on that road. Amazing job; thank you for this.

abuseXD!! That. Was. Perfect. I loved it. Not only were you competant of his comic past, but you kept both completely in character. I'm impressed. And that last line...that was genius. Wish I'd thought of that. Kudos.

abuseSurely, one must give some pity to poor ol' Slade after all he's been through. Your writing was beautiful and Slade's anguish always makes a good story. This story almost crosses over to the T rating, though, but I could see how it could be a K+.

abuseOnce again you have proven to be one of the best authors i have seen on this site. Whenever i see anything on Slades past it frequently has him like an everyday happy guy until something goes horribly wrong. I really liked how even in his "happier times" he was still not a man to mess with.

I don't normally do this, but...I have been trying to find a decent fanfic that contains Rose Wilson, Slades daughter. But so far my search has proved fruitless. what you write is of course your own business...but I would very much enjoy seeing a story that brings her into the spotlight. Your one of the few writers I feel could do a story opportunity like that justice.
Like I said though, what you write is your own business, and I will continue to read whatever masterpieces you come up with either way.

Sincerely,

abuseOh, very, very nice indeed. The last line was oddly fitting, of course. Ironic.

Poor, poor psychotic Slade.
