this is so fucking good. i feel like i'm sitting back and watching the faculty, er, a better version of the faculty. this is exactly the right mood and characterizations. i love your dialogue.

"I'm always mouthy," Casey says, "it's just usually no one listens.

i feel like casey's been waiting for someone to say that! so true omg.

i love them. those aliens better not break up true love. i can't wait to see them kick ass...i hope they do. i am scared!

I really love that line you pointed out too.

ex_absolutef238 October 28 2006, 06:03:02 UTC

i meant to say, i feel like casey's been waiting for someone to have him say that.

it's so good isn't it? and some of your work helped inspire it!

Would I do that to poor Zeke and Casey? ;-)

Eventually Zeke says in his low deadpan, "I guess that takes care of the sexual tension."

"For now."

oooh I hope it's just for now ;) I loved this chapter ... the snappy back and forth between Casey and Zeke and the explanation regarding how the aliens reproduce is awesome. And Stokely's last thought is so chilling. Looking forward to the next part :)

Thank you! And the next part is up now. :-)

I'm glad your mind works the way it does, even if it made it take longer to get the fic done. Having a real understanding of what's going on with the alien's life cycle makes it all richer and more believable, more so than what they gave us in the movie.

Can't wait to see part 4. Thanks for this.

Part 4 is go! Thank you for the very rich source material, I'm only sorry it took me so long to come through for you!

Awesome! Thank you for letting me know! I might not get to read it for a few more days but I'm so pleased that you got it to a place you're happy with and that I get to read it now too. I've been a big fan of your fics for a long time and it's flattering to see what cool stuff you came up with reading mine.
