*butts in on Sierra's bday fic*

This is fabulous, Candy, and the last line is a killer! Hope she lived with her regret for a while there ;)

And he's built like a mack truck.

You betcha *loves*

I liked the idea of fleeting regret--like maybe if she hadn't turned him in they could have had something. So silly, but one of those random thoughts.

*butts in*
The thing I liked about the woman is that she came to her senses -- there was a "dawning" that I enjoyed watching -- and that she did what was right. She wasn't just an airhead who just happened to pass by.

And I think it's so clever of you to explore her "fleeting regret", and you put it in great perspective: if he weren't so attractive and eye-catching, she wouldn't have been placed in a position where she had to do something like that. Such brilliant insight, I wish I'd come up with it. *salutes*

Much love for this Candy! I love it when people explore little scenes and very minor characters in fic. You give me that, exactly, here, and as usual with your deft, accurate touch with Linc, that is marvelously conveyed in so few words.

It's brief, but it's suggestive

Oh, I definitely get what you mean! *claps* Great job, Candy.

It was always one of my favorite scenes--Linc as lookout, but also, Linc as just got outta jail, and you know, there are WOMEN around. He just couldn't help himself, and that little bit of eye contact was a bad idea.

Hee.

Everyone agrees, MASSIVE is the perfect word for Linc. On all counts! *g* One can never go wrong with that description.

Thanks, dear.

Oh, this is delicious, Candy! What a wonderful belated bday pressie for Sierra_Foxx!

I love fics of these little glimpses...these small moments that are so often left unturned and unexplored. (And Linc=yum of course!)

badboy_fangirl April 10 2010, 21:30:09 UTC

It took me forever to write it because she'd asked for S2 Linc, and I was coming up dry. *shamed face* Then all of sudden, I remembered that little interaction, and I was like YES, THAT'S IT. It was fun to write him from totally new perspective.

OMG. *grins like crazy*

I am so glad you prodded me about this piece of awesomeness because I had missed it and that would have been a great shame, Candy!

I love this and for so many reasons: firstly, because it's about Lincoln (and you wrote it, so I know the characterisation will be PERFECT) but also because it gives that seemingly innocuous little moment all the colour and flavour it so richly deserves. Of course Linc would've had a 'look'... I mean, he's just out of jail after THREE YEARS and a man has needs, right?

I also really loved how you described the woman's regret here -- and there's the barest suggestion (to me, anyway, lol) that when she hears of his exoneration a tiny part within her laments what 'might have been' if she'd chosen a different option. I'm probably reaching here, but I think most women would have that reaction to Lincoln Burrows if he showed a bit of interest!

'Lincoln' and 'massive' and 'mack truck' are all perfect, lol... after reading lauranatz's L/S fic (please tell me you have read that fabulous fic!) I ( ... )

badboy_fangirl April 13 2010, 22:20:27 UTC

I love that your comment is longer than the fic itself! LOL! So great.

Yes, I read Laura's piece. It was SO YUMMEH, and so nice to read some new L/S. Delightful.

I really enjoyed the idea that once she realized that moment of regret she felt was actually like a prompting--there was something greater there telling her the TRUTH (not guilty!)--just kinda cool. And of course sad, because yes, she blew her chance! :D
