Loved this. Thank you.

Mice. Well done

This was excellent. #6 had me all misty-eyed. I think I'm going to have to try this writing exercise. :-)

This is a dazzling set of sketches. Each stands alone beautifully, but it’s also interesting to see the patterns that form when the montage is taken as a whole, looking at themes, character development, and point of view. The daily life snippets (“Breakfast,” “Cohabit,” “Middle,” “Remedy”) are wonderful little explorations of ordinary camp life, implications of things we see onscreen or natural extensions of what must happen that we never quite see; “Commemorative” fits that pattern in an annual rather than daily way. “Real” and “Somehow” are somewhat similar in the nice peeks they give us at the running of the operation. Others give nuggets of information on the formation of the team, especially “Approval,” “Beginning,” and “Spirit” in their focus on Newkirk’s shift to true believer, all of which I find very appealing. “Fixed” does a nice counterpoint to those, with Kinch showing Hogan how the operation can work. You dig further back in time with LeBeau in “Lose” and Carter in “School,” each of which reveals salient aspects of their focus characters, and fast forward to liberation in “End,” with its poignant contrasting views of winners and losers. Carter gets more attention in “Dynamite” and “Orange,” both of which have revealing points about his obsession with explosives (connecting nicely that way with “School”). There are a couple of neat episode gap-fillers: “Camera” does a great job with Carter’s point of view about his screw-up, and I loved the connection between LeBeau’s uniform and character in “Red,” and how you further linked them to Newkirk’s shocked discovery. “Touch” is a brilliant analysis of Hogan’s behavior, made all the more interesting by being told from Kinch’s point of view; in that way it fits neatly with Newkirk’s view of Marya’s effects on LeBeau in “Spellbound.” Schultz’s take on the camp is terrific in both “Beginning” and “Enemies.” And of course, I can’t talk about point of view stories without mentioning “Scent,” which is immortal in its final sentence’s take on Newkirk! There’s lots of humor sprinkled through these (Hogan’s comment to Schultz in “Heart” and the final line of “Fracas” spring to mind, as does the team’s dilemma in “Rabbit”). You use dramatic irony to great comic effect in “Manipulator” and to great dramatic effect in “Injustice.” That bit corresponds with the other glimpses of the darker realities of war, in “Green,” “Life,” and most heartrendingly in “Not Enough,” which realistically takes on an issue the original series could never address. You achieve an enormous amount of depth, given the tight focus of the form you’re working with, and the series as a whole is a virtuoso achievement.

I didn't like it I loved it. All those little snippets were what we looked for when we were kids watching this show!

These snippets are wonderful. You've really breathed life into all your little scenes using one or two words to work off of. My favourite was 'fracas.' It made me chuckle. Good job.

Enjoyed a lot!

Very enjoyable - thank you!

My favourite: Klink seeing himself as the manipulator LOL

I really enjoyed this story. I got hooked on approval and all the way to Touch. Would love to see more of these! :D

Now that I've made my way through these little pleasures, what impresses me most is the way you've captured the essence of things unsaid - "Touch" being a case in point. Your observations on Hogan's body language, and his various ways of negotiating personal space, are masterful. There are others, too - "Middle", and particularly the last four words of "Injustice" - beautifully nuanced.

Well done.

This was absolutely wonderful. You incorporated so many emotions and topics, and it is amazing how the randomness of the prompts fit so well.

I loved "School" and "Fracas." Made me laugh. And "Touch" was right on the money! Another favorite from one of my favorites!

They're all wonderful, but the 'Fracas' one totally killed me ;).

Funny, touching, and beautifully written, thank you!

I'm tempted to call it "And For a Few Words More" :o)

Please do ;).

I'm taking these very slowly - at the moment my brain is only operating on three cylinders, and so many swift changes of scene, mood and pov are a little difficult for me to keep up with. But it's nice, dipping in, reading three or four of these little gems, and knowing that there's plenty more still to come.

So far I particularly like "Camera"; but all the ones I've read add a little detail to the HH universe.

Very well done indeed.

Very entertaining!

What a wonderfully clever idea! I love it! I may have to give it a try myself - seems like a great writing exercise,

Klink's confusion over "kicked in the fracas" had me nearly spewing tea on the monitor. Thanks for the smile.

I look forward to you doing more of these.
