You are seriously amazing.

"I'm, ah, not especially comfortable, um. Firing a gun?" Faraday says.

I LOLed.

Thank you! I like a lot of the characters on the show, but Faraday is the first one I have just loved to death. He's a delight.

Seeing this pop up on my flist absolutely made my night. I should like to fangirl you madly now except it might make you think I'm crazy, so I won't, I'll just say that I love this fic so much. Which is kind of funny because it's exactly the sort of fic I could never write, but then, maybe it makes sense that I would like that.

I'm in awe of uncompromising rawness of it and, like I said about the last part, the characterization is flawless. The dialog is spot on too. The fic just carries the reader effortlessly into the claustrophobic, toxic world of that doomed ship. Excellent writing, start to finish.

Thank you so much for reading, and thanks for rec'ing this! I got a lot of great feedback because of that, and I really appreciate it.

You're welcome! Sadly, a pairing this unusual is a hard sell for a lot of people, so I'm glad if I was able to direct some readers your way.

you seriously rock. this is just.... too hot. Keamy's obsession with the pulse? yeah, serious fangasm hardcore oh god. I really don't know how to put into words how much I love your style of writing, the characterization of both Gault and Keamy, and that small line you gave Daniel. "I'm, ah, not especially comfortable, um. Firing a gun?" I can hear him say it now....

SERIOUSLY I LOVE YOU. <3

Thank you! I don't know where the pulse thing came from . . . maybe from him grabbing Gault's neck in Cabin Fever, which was around the time I got the idea for this. :D

I'm so enjoying this series. I'm completely drawn into this strange world on the freighter. I love the little moments you give to Daniel, Charlotte and Miles and the other crew. I'm torn between Keamy's take over of Gault being part of his plan to take over the ship or just a fun and convenient distraction. I'm just as disorientated as Gault. The scene where he went searching threw Keamy's pants was so well written. Your writing is sharp and clever and full of tension. I'm really looking forward to part three

Thanks so much for reading, and for the comment. I love your icon, by the way!

This is really gripping stuff. Your character details are amazing and all completely believable. The scene with Gault going through Keamy's trousers had me on the edge of my seat, which is amazing considering we already know what happens to Gault. Great job! I'm looking forward to more.

Thanks! I decided to write this about halfway into Cabin Fever, and when Keamy ended up blowing Gault away I was undeterred -- just an interesting twist, I say! ;)
