Blew my freaking mind, thats all i can say.

You know, I’ve read and re-read this story a number of times and it never seems to get old. This is one of those readings that I can come back to time and time again. It does not so much as lose its expected pleasure as much as grow on me even further.

Your stories are part of my core favorites in SatAM near-if-not-entirely-purist fics- Sonique, Drazen classics and so on and so forth.

But that’s just a foreword. To say the least, you kept Snively’s snide, contemptuous, sardonic persona well in tact, plus spiced up with your own extra ingredients stirred in the reeking, putrid, boiling mix that would make up the character of our well-admired little lackey. While you make it very clear of the possible offense factors- the swearing, his snide demeanor and uncouth behavior up and front in the introductions, this more humanized side of him seems so much more realistic and preferable to the simply sniveling we’ve seen in the show and has only been barely exposed even then in the behind-their-backs chances he seizes. Besides, personally, I’ve always enjoyed the little bastard you make out of him (haha ).

I loved Geoffrey St. John’s role in this; you really pinpointed his character. He acted as the typical pompous, obnoxious, annoyingly-accented, chauvinist pig that we all have come to know and love as that Aussie skunk from the Underground.. well... Downunda, “mate”. No, but seriously, St. John is a character that can be summed up in a brief description of sadistic, arrogant, and hotheaded. You hit the nail on the head. Bravo, well done, congrats. My hat goes off to you.
But I’m not going to deny some potential OOC. Keep in mind, OOC is pretty much left up to interpretation (like how some other reviewers commented about Snively’s foul language being borderline OOC), so this could go either way.

The King’s rather malicious cruelty seemed a tad of a stretch for my taste, particularly in the familiar ambiance of his benevolent bearing in the SatAM version we all know and love. But then again, I guess that’s uncertain territory, because we only see the King’s direct interaction with Sonic and the Freedom Fighters during the entire duration of any of his appearances as opposed to interacting with either counterparts in the maniacal duo overruling the warped, metal disfiguration of his once grand and prosperous kingdom. That type of reaction certainly would not have been uncalled for to say the least, but attempting to hang the virtually defenseless, little man from a tree branch can raise eyebrows. Its unsafe to say, but I figured that I would point it out.
Grammar, spelling, extensive vocabulary and descriptive plots are top-notch.

Keep it that way.(I kinda freaked at the fragment sentences in the first beginning, but then I realized how they were utilized affectively for emphasis, plus, its first-point perspective, its not like a narrative really addresses grammar formalities, right?
I particularly enjoyed the interplay between Snively and Bunnie (but, please, I don’t mean the word “interplay” as a suggestive pun- haha).
Let me just interject this with an appropriate quote, “God, was she developed. Sally had a nice figure, but Bunnie...was incredible.(As Bunnie would say, “Any-ho...
The unrecognized romantic potential between the two caught me surprised, particularly at your capability to make it seem reasonably cohesive, a certain possibility in the show itself and not just some random throwing-together-of-pairings that tends to make up the majority of romance fics out there. Snively’s inner conflict over his building sentiment for Bunnie made up a more realistic picture for him versus a swooning spell. Plus, the unresolved relationship status kept things in perspective. With Antoine after Bunnie, but simultaneously keeping an eye on Sally and Bunnie being the kind-hearted, benevolent, caring sweetheart she is, who is to say that Snively would be more to her than some confused, beaten thing to be pitied? I appreciate the honesty.

But this all just sums up the bottom line- you’ve really mastered at maintaining the real SatAM characters to their cores and pulling ridiculous OOC puppetry shit to make them play out stories bound to your will. Besides, isn’t that the ultimate point to fanfiction, anyway?
Now how is it that people forget that basic concept, I wonder..

PS The half-page layout of the published draft tended to
hinder the reading. Breaking up the story into more
visible paragraphs might help.)

Basic Rule: I am from Germany so dont expect perfect english."speechless" wow that was very good

liked the PoV from Snively the swearing was a bit off but it fit in in some parts.

dare i say but Bunny Snively part are so cute hehe
i am off to read the other parts

Whoa-ho! A suddenly, rapid swerve from The New Season and we end up on an entirely different road. More mature, more dangerous... more first person, you name it. I dug it okay, enough to want to continue reading. Radical final words, once again. Wild.

Heh heh. I actually found this story pretty funny, even though Snively was... "weird" in some places (you readers who look at reviews first will see what I mean). Sure, the swearing *was* a bit much, but at least it's realistic. After all, the man was pissed off-I doubt he say "darn" or "dumb person" toward someone who just tortured him or severely beat the crap out of him.
Anywho, this story was awesome. I hardly go to the Sonic fanfiction sections of fanfic sites, but thanks to you, Fleury, I just may consider reading SatAM fics after all. (thumbs up)

A very well done story! I loved it! Good job!

WHOA... THIS WAS VERY... INTENSE...! I loved it! I never thought I'd find a fic from Snively's point of view! Poor, poor, poor Snively... Though a lot of the dialogue was out of character for him, like the swearing, I still thought it was awesome! I could almost feel his pain, that's how good this was writen! Sniv's my favorite character!
