![]() ![]() ![]() Hi! I love your series! Some of them are funny as hell , some are sweet and some are kind of scary like this one :D I really like them and I love the way you make Dr.D be so funny :) I'm really glad you've updating them, reading this really makes my day Keep up the good work! |
![]() ![]() ![]() Heh, a suitably undignified origin for Drakken's scar. I sympathize with him. That's just the sort of absentminded thing I would do. |
![]() ![]() ![]() Wow. Drakken's seeing things from the other side of the glass and realizing that maybe he doesn't want to be the person he always thought he did. Quite profound. Very nicely done. |
![]() ![]() ![]() Love the way you portray Drakken's wandering though process |
![]() ![]() ![]() I can't find much to say about this chapter just because it was so perfect. If I highlighted every little thing I liked, I think I'd end up requoting almost the entire thing. I will say that it somehow brought to mind the end of Willy Wonka: "Don't forget what happened to the boy who suddenly got everything he ever wanted... He lived happily ever after." |
![]() ![]() ![]() Another nice one, and pretty much canon, since Word of God says he got that scar by scratching an itch while forgetting he was holding a sharp object. Shego's part is small here, but I like it; who knows whether she didn't care how he looked because of empathy... or apathy? |
![]() ![]() ![]() Very revealing moment of truth for Drakken there. |
![]() ![]() ![]() Beaautiful. Best one yet. And this must have gone on, somehow, for Drakken to come to the conclusion he did - which saved the world, at least in part. (Of course, Kim COULDN'T have beaten Warmonga if Shego hadn't interfered, but that doesn't matter here. However, it is one reason that I consider Shego an extremely conflicted individual, for all her apparent poise and reason. But your vignettes aren't about Shego, so I digress.) One tiny carp with the writing: The sentence "Maybe they do do this every day" just sounds weird to me. Don't know how you'd put it otherwise, though: perhaps "Maybe they have done this every day." Don't know. |
![]() ![]() ![]() "back and forth, back and forth." Yah, that's great. Captures Drakken perfectly, as does his reaction to finally achieving the one thing he wants more than anything else. This is a good one. |
![]() ![]() ![]() LOL! You have a real knack for punchlines. I love how absentminded Drakken is. Having just rewatched Clean Slate, with him having to rely on the index cards, I can believe it. |
![]() ![]() ![]() Nice insights into Drakken's character here, including the little glimpses into the darker side of his prison stay. And how much Shego really means to him- that her promising to come back and make fun of his plan makes everything right with the world again. :) I wondered who spraypainted that in the lair. It had never occurred to me that it was Shego, but I guess it makes sense. |
![]() ![]() ![]() It takes her ten minutes to stop laughing? Oh my god, that's HORRIBLE! ...But so totally canon... Can't wait for the next chapter! S4E |
![]() ![]() ![]() This one didn't seem quite as inspired as the earlier vignettes, but the title is sure apropos, and the punchline is on the nose. |
![]() ![]() ![]() another fine vignette. Without being too obvious, you've shown us that there's SOMETHING between these characters that keeps them together, even if their relationship is a pretty strange one. |
![]() ![]() ![]() Ha, this was great! I got an inkling about halfway through that it was a Tuesday. ;) Despite what Drakken might say, it is kind of "funny ha-ha". Not sure about him telling his mother that he did it in the lab, though. Doesn't she think he's a radio host? I wonder why he had a lot of nightmares when he was in third grade- interesting little tidbit you dropped in for us there... |
