TutorGirlml 2008-06-21 ch 1,	abuseThis one is dark and upsetting, but its still a good story. And I'm glad you posted it. wow. Don seems on the surface like he's always pretty calm and controlled. He knows what he's doing he's good at his job and he was born to do it. He upholds that code to serve and protect and you don't think you would ever see him slip. But in this situation you've given us, I think he would do exactly what he did here. There's not way he wouldn't try to save whichever one of his female coworkers was with him (and yeah, I did wonder who it was) even if it did get him killed in the process. Even if his final action did leave him thinking he was someone he didn't even recognize as himself.
chrysalis escapist 2008-04-04 ch 1,	abuseWow, what a rhythm, it just pulls you along and you know he had no other choice but to do what he did. Great job!
Elainhe 2008-03-29 ch 1,	abuseI am so, so far behind iwth reading (and reviewing!). You keep amazing me, each new one more striking, more brilliant, than the previous. A perfect Don Flack character study. I loved how you tied the start to the end, plus so many other little gems, like these: "Now when he cooked it bought her to life again." "He loved the company of women; their smell, their laughter, their softness, their strength."
notesofwimsey 2008-03-13 ch 1,	abuseThis is such a powerful piece of writing. I love the restraint in the passages; even in the emotionally charged ones, you kept the tone flat and cold. It works so well as a reflection of his emotions as he violates one of his own basic precepts. Proof positive that good writing is clean and strong. Beautiful work.
ThnksFrThMmrs87 2008-03-10 ch 1,	abuseThis story was so incredibly powerful and so sad. You truly have an amazing talent.
leopardprint-farce 2008-03-09 ch 1,	abuseWow. That was really powerful, I loved the way you built the story up and the tension in it was overwhelming. The story itself was really interesting, you put a different spin on things and I think the narrators POV you chose worked so well!
mandy9578 2008-03-09 ch 1,	abuseReally, really well-written. I just love the idea of going through one's psyche at that moment in time when you think someone you care about is in danger. Great work. :)
mel60 2008-03-08 ch 1,	abuseWow. Great job. I absolutely loved the style of this. This is a fabulous look at Flack's character. Really loved it.
prplerayne 2008-03-08 ch 1,	abuseWow. That's heavy! Flack's got a lot of sorting out to do now! Great job! I like that bare bones writing style you've used. No fillers or frils, just the very real emotions and palpable angst!
nyakattia 2008-03-08 ch 1,	abuseWow. Just wow. Because he would step in, wouldn't he, rather than have someone he cared about go through that, without thought for his own life. I loved the last two lines. Perfect!
lily moonlight 2008-03-08 ch 1,	abuseVery powerful. Short, but greatly so as it has such impact. A real insight into Flack's character, and the darker side of who he is. Very well done.
JESSMARY25 2008-03-08 ch 1,	abuseThat was powerful. I really enjoy fics where we can get a look at what/who the characters really are. It's raw.
hockeymom 2008-03-08 ch 1,	abuseWow! Really good. Dark, but not totally depressing, and so totally Don. Just kinda wonder who the woman is, Stella, Angell, Lindsey? Not that it would matter to Don, but I'm just wondering. I like that it's open, let's you place who you want there.
foxdvd 2008-03-08 ch 1,	abuseI certainly didn't threaten you! I merely pointed out that it'd be a pity not posting this lovely masterpiece. Thanks for this get-well-soon surprise!
CarolineNotCarolyn 2008-03-08 ch 1,	abuseWow. So dark, angsty, and yet so wonderful. I personally find angst both hard to read and write, but also some of the most rewarding fics. In this, you are able to not only express Don's lighter side, but also explore what drives him, the darkness of being a cop--and watching Stella be raped. This was a powerful fic, and the last lines are hauntingly brilliant. Excellent work.
