I think this may be my favorite of these yet. The relationship slips along at a nice pace in this story, and the rest is incredible. I love the idea of them finding a safer way to get the message out, and Micah's assistance. Also love the reference to Mohinder doing voiceovers. Really just an incredible job.

Thanks. The voiceover line was my husband's idea ^_^

You write great Micah. I wanted to hold his hand too.

And matchmaker Peter is made of so much win.

I love proactive Matt continuing to fight the good fight.

PS: I noticed in your universe Hilary has already been elected. I'm afraid we're going to have to agree to disagree there, dear.

Barack all the way!!

Actually, I support Edwards... but I couldn't help myself, it was too tempting to put Hillary in there.

I have tears in my eyes. This is an absolutely amazing piece of work. Worth waiting all day for because I'm fairly certain that this is my favorite piece of fic that's been posted in this community. I like it even more than I liked Kiss #17, which I hadn't expected could happen.

Your characterization--amazing. I was so pleased by the way that you portrayed not just M3 but also Bob and Micah and Monica and Peter and everyone else. You've created this gritty post-Powerless world where everything seems so much more real because the world is spinning faster and everything is at stake. And love blossoming out of angst? Nothing more beautiful.

And the fact that it's plot-driven? Wow. Just...WOW. And what a good running use of your theme throughout!

Peter as the little matchmaker? HILARIOUS. Awesome. Even better that Matt was so jealous.

Time to pull some quotes!
Peter gave it a good look, and it paused in midair and then gently splashed into the water below.
A nice moment.

Micah was the sort of kid you expected to be the class clown in ( ... )

AH, thanks for the typo correction! I was staying up so late correcting typos because this took me so long to write, my husband was basically yelling at me to go to bed. Will fix.

So, after reading this, I immediately went and looked for TheRedFile.com.

http://www.theredfile.com/

It exists!

...Just not in the way I want it to. >_>

tiptoe39 December 8 2007, 13:08:09 UTC

Damn. I had originally looked up something slightly different, either plural or without the the or something, but then I decided theredfile.com was the best permutation. Oh well, thus 'tis fiction.
