I somehow sense that this will end in tragedy. :D

Having only watched maybe two episodes of Sanctuary, I can't comment on the fandom aspect of it, but I love the writing. It flows well. It's suited to the time period in which it's set. And you can almost feel how hopeful John must be.

How very perceptive of you. Must be my outstanding writing. *G*

Oooh, which two? Couldn't get into it, or just didn't have time? If you liked it at all - even just a little bit - I highly recommend you trying again. Because it doesn't start the best, but seriously? Shit. Gets. Real.

Thanks so much for reading, sweetie! I really appreciate your comments. :D

I have a radar for angst. An angstdar even. Trufax. :P

First ep and the other one was where they were stuck in this huge water tank and there was something underneath the water.

That must come in handy.

If you get a chance, watch 1x07, "The Five". It's a bit angsty, a bit hilarious and a lot awesome, and it explains a lot of stuff.

Lovely! Really sweet and beautifully written. Welcome to the madness, hope to see more from you!

Thank you so much! Glad you liked it! :D

Beautiful. See, you can write like the rest of us! *snugs*

Awww! Thanks, sweetie! *snugs back*

You made an exception for me and read Sanctuary fic? You're the sweetest! I'm so glad you liked it! *adores John*

This was brilliant!
Especially since I've been overly invested in the dynamics between John/Helen when comined with James and Gregory. It's like what I've been living for lately so this was a treat!
Oh Gregory, you are definitely not a father-in-law I would ever want to cross. And poor John, seriously, the last line was perfect...

-psst- Is that an A2A mood theme I see? *huggles her show*

Thank you so much! I was never quite sure about the last line, so I'm particularly glad you liked that. :D

It is indeed! Best show ever. ♥
