WOW. Just like.... WOW. This was such a gripping story; like irony_rocks, I had to read the whole thing in one sitting. The level of detail and the intricacy of the character interactions really made the story come alive in a way that few stories achieve. The action sequences were awesome and if they were ever to be put to film, they'd probably make the special effects team pee their pants. I would kill to see that last sequence in Kolya's mansion filmed. :D

I loved seeing so many of the gang here, and how they all seemed to just fit their new roles perfectly. The little nods to canon here and there (like Kate's death by falling) were both spooky and amusing.

Elizabeth and Radim? Holy smokes, that was a helluva twist!

John and Elizabeth. They're so much the same, and yet so different, and not just in how this Elizabeth has no problem with picking up a gun and shooting bad guys. But they're still just as clueless about how they feel about each other until their backs are against the wall. Gotta love it.

A fantastic job well done. Bravo to the both of you! *cheers*

Thank you!

WOO! YAY! I feared the action scenes and so this comment? YOU MADE MY DAY.

Another woo! on the Radi twist; we really loved putting that in.

Thank you for this. Elizabeth being able to handle a gun in this verse was important as she cop/PI, but it's such a departure for her character on the show (TLG notwithstanding) that it had the potential of feeling very wrong. Relief it didn't! :D

We're glad you enjoy the fic!
