I like this very, very much. I really think you've hit several nails on the head here. Fabulous work!

abvj October 19 2006, 01:26:47 UTC

Thank you very much, I'm glad that you enjoyed this!

Some fics, this one for instance, just make me sigh with happiness for their 'rightness'. Very well done.

abvj October 19 2006, 01:27:38 UTC

Those fics that your talking about remind me a lot of yours, if you don't mind me saying. I'm glad you enjoyed this. Thanks for the feedback!

I really enjoyed this! You've captured the dynamic between the brothers so beautifully in this fic & your characterization is dead-on. Great work :)

abvj October 19 2006, 01:29:12 UTC

I was rather worried that I hadn't done them enough justice, but I'm glad that you think so, it's a relief. Thanks for the feedback!

This is amazingly perceptive, a shrewd insight into the minds of both brothers and also a most enjoyable read!

Great writing!

I'm glad you enjoyed this as much as I enjoyed writing it. Thank you for the feedback!

Always a pleasure when fics are so well written!

I love this; really well written, and great characterisation, especially of Michael.

So many lines to love and that I could quote, but I'll just go with this one:

"And somewhere between plans falling apart and being rebuilt constantly, over and over, and the lies and deceit that hurt everybody but helped him, Michael tasted the faint essence of success on his lips..."

Because it says so much so concisely. Wonderful.

The only thing I would say is that personally I think Lincoln probably does look down on T-Bag for his perversions; I think they all do. But that is a minor quibble.

I really hope you write a similar piece when we've seen some more of S2, about how their relationship develops on the outside. Because I've a feeling that some of it isn't going to be pretty.

I guess I didn't word that paragraph the best way. I agree with the idea that they all look down on T-bag, because he is the worst of them. Perhaps a better word choice would have been "shouldn't". I'm going to look in to that, so thanks for pointing it out!

I think I'll definitely be writing more fic for Prison Break, and I've been toying around with an idea like the one you suggested lately.

Thanks for the feedback, I'm glad you enojoyed this.
