This fic was really cute. I’ve never seen Jones’s motherly side explores before, but I quite like how you’ve written it. Alex the MI6 legend is Perfect, and so in character. I think my favorite part, however, was the Alex on Adderall experience:)

I really love this despite it being a short story

I absolutely love this! Not only is their relationship ship spot on ( in my opinion) but the writing is amazing and the different shifts in time and plot is just everything! Dude you writing is amazing ! Both in this story and in all of the other stories of yours that i have read! Thank you so much for sharing this with us! And seriously if you ever write more on this, or more stories related to this then I promise i come back to read it!

Oh my gods you made me love this so much this idea of Mother Jones and adoptive son Alex it’s adirable my gods

This was so well written and unique for the fanbase! Motherly Jones is a new fav and reading Alex progress through her eyes was both sad and inspiring! The odd humor is so perfectly Alex and I really appreciate your headcannon fof how his loneliness would affect his future relationships. Also— fanboy Ben is also a new fav thanks for that lol

Please, if you can find the time and inspiration write some more. It was so extremly well written. I absolutely loved it. To see Alex from her perspective is I think so creative and intriguing...I can't wait to read more. Very good job. :D

That was really good!

YASSSSSS
Anyway I just read your bio and it said you liked it when people quote their favourite bits to you so :
- "Alex, you're blond."
-Malcom the guard
- HIS ADORABLE REACTION WHEN SHE SAYS SHE'LL GET HIM A CAKE LIKE OMG ALEX JUST ADSFKHJKLFHGH
- he cares about her and she worries about him awwwww

Love this! You don't find many stories from Jones' point of view. Alex is so perfectly tragic. Fanboy!Ben is my new favorite thing ever. Thank you for this.

Wow! This is such a cute and unique perspective on Mrs. Jones, I love it! Btw All in the Faculty is amazing too, and I can't wait for another update there! Also, I love your story Life's a Beach, though that hasn't seen an update in a while. Basically what I'm saying is all of your stories are awesome and I can't wait to see what you come up with next!

I really like that you connect each scenario so well - Ben Daniels and the rest of the Alex Rider fanclub with people being expressly forbidden to talk to him (also that is also really depressing, I hope Jones feels bad about that), the progression of Alex's age and Ms. Jones' growing concern for him... this makes perfect sense in terms of AitF, though I'm sure if Tom or Liam, Bridget, and Olivia get a hold of her there's going to be some real shade thrown.

Also, the level of detail in your writing is just so good? And Alex's banter is perfectly on the edge of amusing but a little disturbing, especially the one about him having his own candy - I actually winced. An absolute joy to read :)

You really hit the nail on the head with this one. In both Lifes a beach and All in the faculty, Alex always understands that he really has no chance for a normal life, and I always feel sad for him because he deserves one but he never truly is safe, so it was cool to see how the idea played out in another character, Mrs jones, because I always forget she goes through the same things he does, only she's older. Good writing as always. You're the one author who I bother to check so much still writing fanfiction on AR, so please keep up the great stories. Also, hope everything is going well in your life and if you need a quick proofreader, feel free to contact me!

really great and I'm excoited to look for hints of this in the last chapter of AitF

Wow! Love Alex's attitude! I literally just noticed that this was a prequel when his age flew by till it stopped at 23 and he took a vacation. I love his and Mrs. Jones relationship. :)
I'm anxious to see what the last chapter of Apl in the Faculty is going to look like...

This story is utterly lovely! A good mix of humour, and heart-warming-ness... Just what I want for Christmas :D

Mrs Jones is a wonderful character, and you really brought her to life :)

I have to admit, when I read the summary, I worried that meant he'd die in the last scene, but I guess I should have read the genres...

Anyway, thanks for writing and posting this story!

Merry Christmas! I wish you a great week.
