I had this recommended to me by my roommate and fellow fan, and I must say, this was most excellent! The characterization and dialogue was spot on, and I really did love how you had Mason take the whole reaper thing so much in stride.

Have an awesome day!

The whole thing was, quite simply, awesome. Perfect, 10/10 characterisation. Which, really, is the trickiest thing of a fanfiction. If you don't get the characters right, it can be a bad fic no matter how good the writing.

And I love the sense of time. Mason's first experience on a plane. And the sly description of post-its.

And Rube! Ruby! I'm still cackling. Yes, enough babbling. Excellent ficcie!

Gotta say-you captured all of these characters BRILLIANTLY. Even Penny, who I only met once, sounded spot-on. Mason was bloody fantastic. And Rube? No one can make me laugh like Rube. You retained that personality of his perfectly.

I love how accurate everything is-you have Betty, and Penny and even Henry! I applaude you whole-heartedly!

And if that doesn't float your boat, have some gravity.

*hands you a jar marked 'grave soil'*

Whoops! Wrong jar! *mumbles* the gravelings are gonna get me for that one...

*puts that one away and brings out one marked 'gravity'*

Enjoy!

*skitters away*

I loved the whole index card thing...

...so...do you think, in like, the time of the cavemen, reapers got their info on rocks?

Hm...

"I'm not at my best right now," Mason admitted, scratching his head. "I may have taken a few... substances."

Classic Mason. Okay, so no more House but Dead Like Me is just as good. Loved this and hoping for more. Keep up the good work.

This story was just great. Frankly, I can absolutely see Mason's first days just like this. And I love the index cards, cause I so had thought that'd be what they used before post-its. Brilliant, brilliant.

Wow! That was an awesome fic! You should do one of these for each of the main characters... well except George of course because we all know how that went. Only one problem, Mason never went on a plane until the episode when he and Roxy had a reap on one. That's just a little thing though. It doesn't change much. It's really great!

Your characterization is spot on; the dialogue itself is hilarious. Wonderful job!

That was bloody brilliant! I offer you my upmost (sp?) congrats on this one!

Right, that's just bloody brilliant. You got Mason and Rube and Betty down PERFECTLY - it really does feel like, I dunno, a flashback episode of the actual series. NICE WORK! :D

Great. Best Mason fic I've read. I can totally see this happening. I love his total persistance with asking Betty out. That was totally in character. Great job.

Maidm

Loved it. Perfect character voices and a nice insight into how Mason became a reaper. Hope you write more DLM fics!

Fucking fantastic and in character and perfect. You write great DLM fic.

Amazing story. Loved the Mason-Rube interaction and everything else. Just some wonderful work here!

Mason and Rube are spot on!

I really enjoyed this story. I was laughing my ass off... thanks!
