A truly hot story, and not at all degenerate, a difficult feat to achieve in writing. I admire and certainly appreciate the product of your skill. Thanks.

I enjoyed this very much! Lovely piece of work!

Oh my gosh...
That.
That is the type of relationship I realistically see them having! Beautiful!

Great job!

You're one of the best authors out there.

Continued success in writing your fan fiction as a past time...and becoming the serious writer you want to be in real life.

Love the story, nice to see Sarah being encouraged by Jareth to take control and led her life the way she wants to

Great story and good advice. Thanks for sharing. xo

Was well written and fun to read

first, absolutely loved your take on the characters, particularly Sarah. The fairytale for grown up worked. Jareth being annoyed but turned on by his defeat sounds exactly like him, in my head. Your author's notes about being a responsible storyteller were also very interesting to read. Great story.

etc cetera nine: I suspect Jareth and Sarah's inability to compromise (as portrayed by the fandom) reflects most people's discomfort around compromise and negotiation in real life. As for school, Sarah's also only in her first year on the job. Personally, I see her not only finishing her degree eventually but possibly getting an advanced one as well. She never was good at following the rules.

This is a story I'd totally consider a sequel for, and possibly a prequel to show how Sarah's father left home, but I think people will murder me if I take anymore time off of writing Fledgling.

Ok first of all you are so lovely to write these in-depth author's notes like this.

Second of all I love how proud Jareth is of her and her own life - and power - that she created herself. And that she doesn't have to give up everything for them to work out. (Why can't they ever compromise! It makes me nuts.) But yes, the scariest thing is not a monster, when you're older - it's losing everything that you've worked for, which Sarah told him very succinctly.

I have to admit I was a little "Oh noooo Sarah don't drop out!" but, you know, sometimes things work out. They should totally have paid for her to finish school somewhere though. Come on, tech startup!

(Also, yeah, he would totally love being manhandled.)

This was an incredibly well written story that I very much enjoyed. You are a fantastic writer and I hope to read more of your works in the future. :)

The END? Srsly? Nice lemons, but really it's very unresolved...imho. But, you're the writer. Thanks for a nice story.

Thank you for the escapism you provide. Its always nice to fantasize beyond the daily world. I love the characters and personalities you create.
