This is great!

I love the introspect into Zack and what he thought about Tinga and that tragic situation, and I especially like that he's going to adapt to the fact that he is now going to be in a similar situation, though hopefully with happier results. I hope you write more about Zack and Max and their baby. ^_^

That is so sad, depressing really, for Zack I mean. To not have those feelings when he should've and finally become 'enlightened'. I always wondered what it would've been like for him if he stopped being a soldier for a moment. I like your idea.

Good, really good actually.

Like the scenario, love the execution. The dialogue and internal monologue are great.

Another great story! I only just went to your profile and worked out who you were (so sorry)! Your change in pen name totally threw me, but I have been a very big fan of your work for ages, and I am so very glad that you are back! You have me reading fics with pairings that had they been done by any other author I would probably just have overlooked, but you have me reading and enjoying. So great work, and I apologise for my ignorance ~Blake
