that guy over there 2008-08-15 ch 1, anon.	abusedude, you do good work, VERY well writen
Cedric55d 2008-03-26 ch 1,	abuseare you going to keep going with the story
Metropolis-Rising 2008-03-19 ch 1,	abuseThis was good. A great example of how to foster intimacy without a "ship", even if that might be what you're leaning towards. I'm hoping the SCC gives us good shows from here on out since I feel that it would be a steady source of good fic like this; short, but well-crafted character pieces. Thanks for this.
Osanagokorochi 2008-03-15 ch 1,	abuseVERY good. I was impressed with the thought processes you assigned to Cameron--very accurate. But if I might add the slightest bit of criticism? "She could hear the audio recordings due to her audio receptors being more advanced..." might be better written thus... "She could hear the audio recordings due to her more advanced audio receptors..." When writing, it is always best to keep words to a minimum if at all possible. Fewer, more concise words usually make for the better story. This, however, has simply been my experience, and is up for debate. Again, excellent story. And of course, a lovely treat for us character-relationship fans. ^_^
imaginaryfriend09 2008-03-13 ch 1,	abuseI love how you wrote this.
Tpolich 2008-03-12 ch 1,	abuseIf they ever stopped skynet from being built john would have never been born. But if he wasn't born how could they stop skynet? If they don't stop skynet from being built he is born. My conclusion is that without skynet john would have been hit by a buss at age 7. Good story, made me think quite a bit. You did a really good job with Cameron.
BenRG 2008-03-12 ch 1,	abuseAn interesting expression of how I view the temporal war between humans and the machines. Every time John and Sarah win a victory, they step sideways onto a new timeline with a different future. First Judgement Day was in 1997, then in 2007 and now in 2011. Each time, Skynet seems to be a slightly different entity, originally a defence computer network, then an AI communications security software system and now, seemingly, a psychotic descendent of a project created by a computer hobbyist. It is simply a tragic and slightly alarming fact that the /momentum/ to creating an artificial intelligence to totally automate the means of war is so great that every time someone is stopped from doing it, someone else takes up the baton and starts again. If there is a reason to lack hope it is that, as the T-850 in 1994 said, it seems to be in our nature to destroy ourselves. The Connors are fighting human nature and the desire to create a bigger, better kind of bomb rather than the machines that were spawned by that desire. However, if there is a momentum towards destruction, the existence of John and Cameron proves that there is also a momentum towards salvation and the desire to make things right. Which is comforting, when you think about it. A thought-provoking piece. BenRG's Rating: 8/10
Nvrmore 2008-03-11 ch 1,	abuseI like it. I like Cameron's pov and the computer lingo. I really like the talk about temperal mechanics and quantum interpretation. I don't know anythign about either, but they sound good and I am easily impressed. :D Not that you didn't do a good job. I think you explained things very well so that, even I - who don't know about these things - was able to understand what you were saying. That's a talent. But, the story was good too. Subtle. Nicely done.
Metroid13 2008-03-11 ch 1, anon.	abuseNicely written. I found the last part extremely creepy, for whatever reason.
Embry 2008-03-11 ch 1,	abuseThat was really good!! I loved how you wrote john and cameron. You portrayed john's anger well!!
astropixie 2008-03-11 ch 1,	abuseAww...I really liked this! A nice bit of angst but realistic for this series. I loved how you incorporated real stages of sleep...except do teenagers have night terrors? I thought it would be more of a nightmare at that point. And I also liked your thoughts on the timeline. It was a good read.
Elliesmeow 2008-03-11 ch 1,	abuseI liked that. There was growth for both characters. -Ellie
Chris St Thomas 2008-03-11 ch 1,	abuseit's nice to see that somebody else on here is considering the time paradox ramifications of this show. there's one other that i have read. you've definately put some thought into it. i like the story.
NoLongerMalicious 2008-03-11 ch 1,	abuseThat was really well done. I love it when people can answer that oh-so-annoying question of, once Skynet is truly stopped, won't John cease to exsist? And you actually answered it using all the right theories, so kudos to you. I enjoyed it all.
