Jul3s 2008-05-31 ch 35,	abuseYou know, just when I read the ending of Chapter 34, my Winamp brought Journey's "Don't Stop Believing" on and that was so fitting... I just spent this afternoon reading and while I've been a few times around the block reading fanfic, there weren't many stories that left me so... conflicted. There's one part of me that's smiling broadly and sighing happily because this is without doubt a stellar piece of writing. And then, there's the other part that wants to sit down and cry. Now, I only hand out the Kleenex for my own readers, I've never really cried when reading myself, but I was quite close this time. Of course, it was pretty clear from very early on that Don would have serious doubts of going back to the FBI if he ever were exonerated, but being faced with the fact, I'm still sad. I love Dina and her transformation throughout the story. As well as OC's go, she's a really intriguing and well-rounded character. Gah, I feel like I ran a marathon. :-)) Kudos, Z, lots of kudos. I really hope you're planning a sequel. I would love to see how things develop.
leleana 2008-05-22 ch 35,	abuseI just wanted to say that I absolutely loved this story. All of it. I ended up liking Dina a lot, especially because she actually seemed real. Everyone acted the way that the probably should according to the circumstances, which made the story even more amazing. If I could give you some kind of Awesome award, I totally would. This was definitely worth the time it took to read :)
clwilson 2008-05-17 ch 35,	abuseOh Wow, I only just found this fic, it kept me gripped from end to end. fantastic. I hope you know you are now responsible for me not getting enough sleep in the last three days, not to mention smoking too many ciggarettes and drinking to much coffe to stop me falling asleep on the keyboard. well done.
jjm223 2008-05-16 ch 35,	abuseWhat an incredible story! I just finished reading it-long after you had posted it- but I just had to tell you how much I enjoyed it. I never watched The Fugitive on tv but have seen the movie so I know the basic storyline. What a great idea to mix the storyline with the world of Numb3rs. I rarely read AU stories, especially crossover ones because they never seem to quite mesh to me, but this was clearly an exception. I was hooked right from the prologue! It helped that Don is hands down my favorite character on the show, so having him in peril was probably what sucked me right in. This is definitely one of the best written and most developed stories I've read. I loved how you were able to tie in so many characters from the show too-his team was always behind him and Charlie never gave up hope that he could help prove his brother's innocence. One of my favorite parts was when Don met up with Billy Cooper. His history in Fugitive Recovery on the show added a really interesting twist to this story, made me really believe how capable he'd be at staying on the run if need be. Having some help from Cooper towards the end was great. I liked how you didn't have Don return to the FBI at the end, it just didn't seem right. Your explanation that he'd be afraid any doubt he might over a suspect's innocence could cost him was good, and I also think it would have been hard for him to go back because he truly had been betrayed. Although what happened to him had been orchestrated by a corrupt few people, the system really did let him down. At first I wasn't crazy about the epilogue and the idea of Javier and Don getting together romantically. I had a thought about them together in an earlier chapther, when they were together in her car during the hurricane and I was afraid that if all ended well for Don, they'd end up together. I put it out of my head though, and when I read the end I wasn't sure what to think. But how Don reconciled that she was simply doing her job at first, no more than he had on many occassions, I started to think differently. You did a good job of developing Javier's character, because as the story progressed you could see that she felt betrayed as well and wanted justice for Don just as much as the rest of his team. Thanks for all of the work you put into this story, I'm sure it took a lot of time but it was worth it. I'm glad I was able to read it in its entirety, I'm not sure I would have been able to wait for some of the conclusions to the cliffhangers you included! I really enjoyed it though, and look forward to reading some of your other work. :)
Flowerhead101 2008-05-16 ch 35,	abuseI'm reading this fic nearly a year after you published it, but I'd still like to comment on this wonderful fic! I've spent the last couple of days reading it for hours on end, happy I was reading this, but sad each time I ended a chapter cause that meant the end was coming closer. I absolutely love this fic, it's very well written, I like the whole concept and it always had me on the edge of my chair, waiting to find out what would happen next to poor John. Anyway, fantastic fic!
D. Lerious 2008-05-03 ch 14,	abuseoh no!
CeriseReve 2007-11-08 ch 35,	abuseGagh! It took me a bit to come up with a coherent thought, but now that I have I’m especially glad I pointed out that inequity. You have me cracking up at the “Men, always thinking with their—” line. Congratulations on finishing, Z. This entire story has been quite an accomplishment. =)
Sharon 2007-11-06 ch 35,	abuseCould it be, that even after all Javier has done to redeem herself (and she's done that magnificently), I still think Don deserves better than her in his life? That's the only explanation I can come up with for my continued reluctance to accept them as a couple. And I even waited 24 hours to write this so I wouldn't provide a knee jerk reaction! That being said, Don appears happy and content in his new relationship and life and that's what is most important. If she hurts him, however, I reserve the right to claw her eyes out! "Just because I was busy chasing your ** doesn't mean I didn't check it out now and then." - I'm so glad I read this line at home rather than at work! The hysterical laughter would've been so hard to explain! The unexpectedness of it made it that much funnier. The attention to detail, fast pace and accurate characterization made this story such fun to read. My favorite parts had to be the Eppes family moments especially Don and Charlie in Washington and Alan and Charlie with Don in the hospital. It has been a joy and a privilege to read this story. Thanks for inviting me along on, what has turned out to be, an incredible ride!
adrian 2007-11-05 ch 35, anon.	abuseExcellent. You should makr this story as complete. Some people will not read an uncomplete fic. This is still not marked as complete
Kiki Cabou 2007-11-05 ch 35,	abusereaches over Mrs. Grahmcracker's head to grab army-green backpack from the overhead rack slings it on hops off the bus and regards you as people rush by This was so romantic. It was hopeful and beautiful, and a really nice change of pace from all the running! LOL Great conversation action between Dina and Don (that would actually be so cute - Don and Dina Eppes - hee hee!). Good to see that they're healing and coming out of this; the description of Don at the barbecue was fantastic. And the two of them are doing that "meeting-in-the-middle" thing. Hooray! Anyway, I'm really happy you posted the epilogue. At the risk of understating it, I enjoyed this story a lot. Ya done good, kid. See you for the next one. :) winks disappears into the crowd
Lisa Paris 2007-11-05 ch 35,	abuseA couple of rounds with the handcuffs . . . wow! Still wondering if Dina deserves him, but I guess I sort of came around in the end What a lovely sensual description of their actual coming together. Lucky, lucky Dina, to get up close and personal with that man. I liked the bit about her checking out his jeans. Just goes to show she IS human. The bit about his memories of Liz was very nicely done. Z - the whole story was a keeper from beginning to end, a most excellent piece of writing. Fast-paced, well drawn, and plotted. I loved reading every moment of it.
orangepotato 2007-11-05 ch 35,	abusea great ending, very very good! don and dina are finally together! woot! (a lot of kissing though...) anywho, it's a happily ever after! loved the story all the way through, and im glad they finally have some peace! you rock out loud! im looking forwards to a new story some time soon! (of course when your able) thanks for the read, jagonseeker
Ms.GrahamCracker 2007-11-04 ch 35,	abuseYou may have set the standard for us all to follow with this story. It was amazingly well written, with action, and angst, and emotion, and love, and loyalty, and determination, and trust, and then - the epilouge - which was HOT! Thank you so much for sharing this incredible adventure with us.
Synbou 2007-11-04 ch 35,	abuseYou made me very happy and shall I say... satisfied ;-) That was fantastic! Best, Isa
ALEO 2007-11-04 ch 35,	abuseAnd that is a wrap. A positive ending. Don gets the girl and retains his sense of humour and self despite losing nearly everthing. His future holds hope both in the professional sense - his baseball coaching career, and in the personal sense. This has been an excellent adventure. sigh I will still miss Agent Eppes however.
