Oooh, I loved this a lot! I think you've got Zoe down really well, and how her attitude and lifestyle has changed since she got to Eureka. And, aww, I like it when Stark is nice to her.

Also, these lines - 'Zoe was unlucky enough to be the only teenage girl in the world with a father who pouted. He got this hurt-offended-mad expression and it was hardwired right to the guilty part of her brain.' - were kind of a perfect description of Carter that I really enjoyed.

Thank you :) I really like Zoe's progression in the show, and how her relationship with Jack has developed as she's grown up a little. And yeah, I have a little thing for Stark being nice to her. It's on my list of things I want to see more of in S3!

I'm glad you liked those lines as well - I had to poke at that bit for a while before it truly conveyed Jack's sadface :(

Thanks again!

This was such a lovely character piece. Really enjoyed it (it made me smile) - and I think you got Zoe just right!

Oh, thanks, I'm really glad it worked for you :) I love Zoe, but I haven't written something that centred around her, so it's nice to know it came out okay!

I really like what you did with Zoe here. Jack is protective, but he did a great job teaching her how to take care of herself. And she really does fit in at Eureka. Enjoyed this very much!

I think it's a testament to Jack (and Eureka) that Zoe does grow into herself so much as the show progresses. And I'm glad that came across! Thank you for the feedback :)

I really like this little slice of Zoe's life and how she's become a part of Eureka. It's feel very much like her. :)

Thank you! Zoe was surprisingly hard to write, so I'm glad it feels in-character :)

*g* Zoe and Jack together is one of my favourite parts of the Zoe, so it's great to know that worked. And thank you for commenting :)
