Reads like a canon episode hohaiyee July 17 2009, 06:00:10 UTC

Wow, I have to say, at first, I thought Steve came back to life all on his own, like, all his body needed was a really loooooong time to heal.

A good canon episode, I hope muccamukk July 20 2009, 06:00:55 UTC

Thanks. That would be a really long time, plus he would have to end up in a completely different ocean. I originally had completely unexplained handwavey magic bringing him back, but just couldn't do it.

Really excellent pacing and plotting, great characterisation and some very funny bits - all in all, an awesome way to spend a Saturday afternoon ;}.

Thank you. I'm glad you liked it.

This was such a refreshing combination of the classic villain-of-the-day storylines and the more...I don't know, melodramatic?...ones we've come to expect today. I also appreciate the approach to Steve and Tony's relationship: that they'd tried being friends with benefits once before and it didn't work out, but they still remained friends.

And I loved seeing Tony being heroic without his suit and without knowing what the hell was going on. It showed how ingrained Tony's heroism really is.

Great work.

Thank you. I had fun with the villain, though I felt a little bad that I didn't come up with a canon one from the '70s.

I like to substitute "Relationship-orientated" for "melodramatic" in that the original comics are often delightfully melodramatic, just about different things -g- Anyway, I had enough plot going as it was without adding, "Also, we're bisexual now" on top of it.

I think when you take everything from Tony is when he's most likely to do the right thing and be heroic. He has simpler definitions then.

Thank you!

"Relationship-oriented" is a much better way to put it. I was braindead and couldn't think of what I really meant to say. Thanks! ^_^

Wowie okay, that was probably one of my favorite "Steve's back" openings, his disorientation and there's something intensely disturbing about him retaining the autopsy scars, this line: They cut me open, he thought, his vision dimming. I died, and they cut me open. jkahgjkafd *shiver ( ... )

Long thinky review! My favourite. Thank you so much!

I feel that Steve needs to woobie too; it's really only fair to horribly mutilate him in the cause of angst science angst ( ... )
