Me too.

Wow, really gripping fic you have so far! :) So... when will you update it, then?

I love this story entirely too much. Just when I think it's beginning to settle down a little, something else happens! And I've always had a soft spot for M/C friendship stories, so this one is nearing the top of my list very quickly. Keep up the amazing work.

well well well, it is very good! continue on, i like the idea of the jake cassie thing going on...good plot...continue to update!

awesome chappie! and yes Cassie does seem pretty IC

I like the sensory details...good story...can't wait 4 more

w00t, Ellimist! YAY! **does the happy dance**
**cough** Sorry. I just like the 'ol blue guy.
Okay, that aside, YAY! Marco! **does the happy dance again** All right, all right, I'll calm down and write a serious review now.
I really, really like this chapter. Cassie's reaction (especially the whole laugh, don't cry thing) is very in-character, though like you pointed it out, it's more something you'd expect Marco to do. But I like it. A nice reversal on Cassie's character that, given the circumstances, makes complete sense.
And I liked the bit about how Cassie would always dream of saving Jake. That was dead-on. Actually, makes me wonder if Jake'll be one of the "temptations" Crayak has for Cassie.
And your Marco is perfect. Right down to the "Bad cop. No donut." I'm glad to have him around 'cause otherwise, there'd be, oh, NO happy/funny parts in this story. And HA! I loved the Buffy reference. (And is Cassie's last name inspired by Cordelia, or was that just coincidence?) Oh, yeah - one thing I wanted to say. I -love- the way you're handling Marco and Cassie's friendship in here. I always thought they were a lot closer than a lot of fanfic writers give 'em credit for, especially after #54. (Was I the only one who noticed Marco really only seemed to hang with Cassie and Ax after the war?) Oh, and Carmen and Mario were great, too. P
And all the interplay with Crayak and Ellimist (and your implication Crayak has grown stronger) has me pretty sure The One is a part of this. And question - if no-one else believes Cassie, does that include Tobias and Ax? Do they even know what happened?
Like usual, I can't wait to see where you go with this. And I'm very glad you'll let me archive it. I'll send you the link to my site soon. But one question before I put it up...will this be a Marco/Cassie? I kinda need to know before I put it on the site.
And I can't wait for more!

{ Uh uh, none of that. } Marco said. - comma, not period.
The world was so full of pain. - "is" instead of "was" would actually be more effective.
And my only friend in the world was Marco, and I still didn’t understand why he was doing all this for me, risking his ass to save me. - "risking his ass" is a little harsh for Cassie. "risking his life" preserves her character.
The last line could be taken out altogether, and the second-to-last line be changed to "Marco froze. "Can I get another round of 'oh, shit'?" (question mark should be outside the first quote mark, another editor's note)
Okay, I'm done with criticisms: awesome chapter. I eagerly await the next one. And I love Crayak's entrance. Washai!
-Your adoring fan, Kat

Hey, you!
I really like your spin on things. I am very, very intrigued. Confused, but definately in a happy fun way. Who was it? How did they get Cassie's earrings? Why? And will Cassie escape ('cause I know she can!)?
I really hope you continue. Your writing is tense, descriptive, and interesting. This is really great stuff!
Woohoo!

five stars. Oh, my god! I want to cry... (this was so good) What's gonna happen next?

wow, that was a really intense chapter! really REALLY well written! i felt for Cassie the whole time (which is odd b/c I'm the President of the Cassie Hater's Club).
I loved the part where you wrote the Miranda Rights in italics, showing that Cassie didn't really hear them/acknowledge them. That was an awesome way to do it!
And i love all the inner-turmoil she's got racing in her head.
This is a super awesome fic! I'm hooked! Please get the next chappie up soon!

hey! this sounds like its going to be a good one!
only thing that's buggin me: why didn't Jake just morph? I mean he got smashed as a fly and nearly died before, why should a bullet be a big deal?
: )

Wow. This is really good. You have a very original idea, and you are very in character with Cassie. Update soon!

OMG. NO! *takes a breath* NO! Not Jake? This fic is ridiculously good. Such a creative idea and a flawless start! I wonder who the heck that woman is though. Keep going!

Wow. That's all I have to say. Keep going!
