 xocrazililkelox 2008-06-12 . chapter 1I really liked this one-shot it was cute, I hope you write more soon. |
 Luckystar27 2008-04-21 . chapter 1Yeah, that's Jackie for ya! The line at the end was classic, I loved it! This is very well done, you've captured each character perfectly. AWSOME JOB ^_^ |
 Queen Jane Approximately 2008-03-01 . chapter 1AI, this was really wonderful. And I apologize for not getting to read it sooner (yeah, I'm like two months late, lol), but I only just 'joined the cult,' so to speak, a few days ago, lol.
But I really loved this. You write so well and you did a fantastic job with the characters, especially Bobby and Jack. They sound just as real and human as they did in the movie. And it was fun picturing Jack as a sixteen-year-old -- I wonder if his hair was as fluffy-looking, lol.
There were a lot of lines here that really stuck out to me, but this one especially gave me the chills: "If he was honest, he suspected he would be dead in a few years anyway, and he didn’t really care." It's just so heartbreaking. I don't mean your writing, lol. I mean the truth behind that, because that's exactly what happens. So while it's so sad, the foreshadowing you did include was really great. And the end with the adoption papers and the guitar was adorable. :)
Very lovely job. I hope you write more FB fanfiction in the future, I can already tell you have a great handle on this fandom. :)
Peace,

 Oh My Goodness! 2008-02-23 . chapter 1 First of all, forgive me for any typos. They annoy the hell out of me, but my cat is (literally) sitting on one of my hands. Sigh. I just cant say no to him. That said... I knew the present was adoption papers! I knew it! I always pictured Jack younger and... I dunno, less sure of himself? He seems to have been at the Mercer home for a while- or considered them like every other home. The guitar line at the end made me smile. It's always nice when Jack gets his own on Bobby. Anyway, this was basically a lot of words to tell you I liked it. =) |
 Anaeli 2008-01-09 . chapter 1hey!!
jaja! he wanted the guitar! its just what you would expect from Jackie!
keep writing! |
 Fosterchild 2008-01-04 . chapter 1Poor Jack. He just doesn't get it.
I like how you conveyed his almost detachment from his own life. He doesn't expect too much and just figures he has to live the life he has until hopefully it ends soon. |
 Maxiekat 2008-01-03 . chapter 1AI - I love this so much. You did a great job with all four brothers, Jack especially. I felt so bad for him, hoping for some word from his father even though he knew it wasn't coming. I really love the fact that Jack doesn't want to celebrate his birthday because it'll just drive home the fact that he isn't a permanent part of their family.
I also like that you alluded to stuff in Jack's past and that he still hasn't completely kicked drugs, but it isn't overly angsty and over the top. I think that makes the story more realistic.
And the line at the end was perfect - classic :)
I really think you should consider writing more Four Brothers stories in the future (Yay, Jack!) |
 Ghostwriter 2008-01-03 . chapter 1Yeah, that's our Jack. Great job. Catch ya on the flip side. |
 ohremy 2008-01-03 . chapter 1Oh, AI, this was wonderful! I think you wrote Jack especially well - he's not too tough, and he's not too much of a sissy or dopehound - or even worse, completely and totally helpless.
I like the idea that he dreads his birthday because he gets disappointed by the lack of communication with his father. I love the ending. It was incredibly well done, and not sappy.
Fantastic, my dear! |
 charming2drew 2008-01-03 . chapter 1AMAZING! I loved this! You are a great writer!!
