kayathedragon chapter 13 . 4/18/2015 I have no idea what's going to happen, agh! So they're going to start up an old DOS prototype? If it has any relation to GLaDOS, this can't end well... What's going to happen to the other test subjects? Oh nooo. |
kayathedragon chapter 10 . 4/18/2015 Awwww, this is cuuute. Wheatley can't keep quiet for long, can he? I love this. |
kayathedragon chapter 8 . 4/18/2015 "To death, probably. They'd be together, then—not 'til death would they part. Great, I'm hypothetically engaged to an idiot computer." That's actually hilarious, bahaha. Brilliant. |
Chell chapter 24 . 3/21/2015 AHHH I NEED THE NEXT CHAPTER THIS STORY IS SO GOOD! |
CelestiaLily chapter 24 . 9/13/2014 This has been an exciting and nerve wracking ride, an elaborate plotline with stunning attention to detail and an atmosphere oozing sheer tension and mystery in every chapter! I feel like every forced capture and cryosleep of Chell marks the beginning of a new Portal installment - evey time meeting new characters to face off GLaDOS in different but still fatally grueling ways. As such, the incredible and nail-biting "Portal 3" act (in my mind) draws to a close and a supposed "Portal 4" act begins. With GLaDOS reflecting on extensive (and beautifully world-building!) flashbacks of Caroline's life, Wheatley getting used to a totally alien (brilliant way of writing such an experience!) flesh-and-blood body, Orion and Carrie unaccounted for (very interesting OC's!), Orange and Blue subverting their bosses' orders (cool insights into their cooperative programming!), and Chell recovering from another harrowing escape attempt (wonderfully evocative thought processes and body language!), this story has more than a few plot threads woven together into a truly extravagant narrative! Thanks so much for writing such a great story - your hard work really shows and keep up the fantastic job. You ROCK! :) |
Guest chapter 24 . 8/27/2014 It took me a while, what with work and other goings on, but I finally read this WONDERFUL story up to its current chapter, and I am loving it. It makes me feel even more petty for snubbing it for smut in the past. (Though not going to lie - still love the smut.) I always have appreciated your talent for description and pacing. In particular, your voice for the mute Chell has remained one of my favorite things about your stories, just as impressive as your capture of Wheatley and GLaDOS' character. Reading Target Acquired was really like playing a continuation of the game, with all the fun of new corners to explore, history to discover, etc. I love the exploration of friendship between Chell/Wheatley and Orange/Blue as well. I had many favorite parts, but perhaps the moment that touched me the most was when Chell discovered sunlight. Eagerly awaiting the next installment! Now I have resisted the newest chapter of Mechanophilia long enough... |
hyacinthorectus chapter 1 . 5/20/2014 iammemyself (or stilliammemyself... however you know her) recommended this to me. So... on to the reading, eh? This looks promising. |
iammemyself chapter 24 . 5/16/2014 I think it bothers her more than she's admitting here, that she felt love once and she knows she'll never feel it again. That's a terribly sad thought. ...aaand she disappears. Somehow. I can see where your problem lies. This is definitely the best chapter of all of them. |
iammemyself chapter 23 . 5/16/2014 That's interesting how Orange thinks GLaDOS can't understand her, merely because she never answers her questions. You've obviously thought a lot about it. Bravo. |
iammemyself chapter 21 . 5/16/2014 Poor GLaDOS ;.; she never knows what to do with those memories. I hope that computer that was talking to her was a baby GLaDOS, because that's cute 3 |
iammemyself chapter 20 . 5/16/2014 Interesting that GLaDOS thinks of herself as the Central Core AND capitalises personal pronouns. I like that but by the time it occurred to me to do so it was far too late. |
iammemyself chapter 18 . 5/16/2014 Awwww that was a cute conclusion! |
iammemyself chapter 17 . 5/16/2014 Wowwww that was unexpected. |
iammemyself chapter 14 . 5/16/2014 He's scared of Atlas and P-body when they're the least scary things on the planet lol. |
iammemyself chapter 11 . 5/16/2014 Wait - but she just logged onto GLaDOS's network! And GLaDOS didn't notice? |
