Um... How Could You Keep This Masterpiece From ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I mean this is utterly perfect!!! And I don't think that Madeline was a damsel in distress at all because while she was drugged and in a terrible situation, she wasn't needy or pining for Paul. You captured her resiliency and self-sacrificing nature so well.
I really enjoyed the discombobulated nature of the first section because it captured what it would be like to be drugged and in a strange place.
I so <3 the part where she has killed two men and keeps stopping her own heart.
And Guh! the TR at the end was so good because it was so them and I died from laughter about naming the animals Michael and Nikita.
I mean this fic is so very awesome, and I'm probably going to reread it again as soon as I get done commenting.
“You look beautiful,” he says, and she thinks he means it, even if she's bloody and bruised and dirty.
Actually, I really like your idea about how you were going to post the story. It is always kind of fun to have a mystery of putting all the pieces together.
I know that you say that this fic isn't complete, but in a way, the fic reads like it is complete. The missing parts seem to fit in with the whole drugged surreal atmosphere of the first part.
I can't say enough about how wonderful this fic is and I would recommend that you put it on the Section One fan fic Comm because it is truly great and I think that others would like it as well!
Well, even with something half-written, you are one HELL of a writer. The drugged part is disorienting, but in a way that makes the scenario perfectly believable, and the ending melts my heart.
I'm telling you what, drugged!Madeline? Incredibly fun to write. Lol. I mean, okay, also really hard to write, but incredibly fun. Poor Madeline, though, she totally got completely screwed over in this story. Lol.
Oh my god, how did I miss this? I looooove it. I didn't find your Madeline OOC at all--in fact, I think you capture her perfectly. I was thinking a lot of "Mandatory Refusal" as I read this (loved the heart-stopping reference) and I could definitely picture her in this, a similar scenario.
The drugged-out parts were very well-written and evocative. And the Paul sections were awesome and funny and heart-breaking all at once. In fact, the entire fic was all of those things. I would really like to see more of this, but I appreciate you sharing what you have! ;)
Thank you so much! It was incredibly, incredibly fun to write, I'll admit, it just... never ended up finished. I couldn't believe all the plot points by the end, and I figured if I couldn't believe them, I could hardly expect anyone else to. Lol. But writing drugged!Madeline was certainly interesting, if only because she doesn't usually--at least in my head--let herself dwell on things unless they have a purpose. She's not about to sit there feeling betrayed by Nikita when she could be figuring out how to twist the situation to her advantage. But drugged... she can dwell a bit more. Lol. Was way fun to write. <3
Thank you again for reading this! I'm so glad you enjoyed it!

“I can assume you've been drugged as well, then?”
Um... YES!!!!!
