Love this. (Had to use this icon because hello! her bullshit meter was a 100% on that sniper wanna-be.)

From someone who writes Charissa alot lately, I can so see this going down. It was awesome. I also enjoyed how in her eyes saving the kid was somehow making up for screwing Face over.

You should do a sequel and have Face somehow find out about what she did or something. *nod*

Like, I thought she was a strong woman character and pretty awesome in the movie, but I've never really paid attention to her. And then I saw the fact and my brain just kinda grabbed on and wouldn't let go.

This turned out a lot deeper than I planned on when I started writing it. It was supposed to be this small, cracky thing, and then somehow it turned into a story with feelings. I don't know about a sequel, but the shit Face would give her if he found out why she saved the kid would be amusing.

[devious_trouble]

Oh yes, very amusing!

Glad you went with your muse and wrote this. :)

This is the first Charissa story I've read. Thank you for putting the focus on an overlooked character, and doing her justice.

[ladylade]

I was really surprised how much I enjoyed the minor characters in the movie, including Pike and Lynch (those two are so awesomely bad). I know I was supposed to kinda hate Sosa for screwing over Face, but she's such a strong character that I ended up really respecting her.

doing her justice. I'm really glad you think so. Thanks for the review!

Okay, so, I was the one who posted that fact. And HOLY SHIT, you wrote a FIC about it? An AWESOME fic? With Charissa (one of my favorite female characters OF ALL TIME) Sosa being utterly, epically badass and sexy and GAHHH, YOU'RE SO AWESOME. Seriously. This was SO BADASS. I love Sosa, and I love you. <333

[ladylade]

Oh my god, your fact mauled my brain. After writing her, I can't believe I haven't done so before--like, how the hell did I not realize that she can totally kick ass? As the "prompter" of this, I'm glad you thought I was able to do her epicness justice.

Thanks for the comment, and the love!

From what I know about tramadol, it's a prescription-based drug. Shouldn't you be able to get it through a pharmacy? (Also, this is kinda random and irrelevant to my post.)

[faustaufsaug]

Hell yes.

I didn't even like Sosa very much, but this is awesome. She's so badass ♥

[ladylade]

Thankyou!

I had to give Sosa the benefit of the doubt because I don't necessarily like Jessica Biel, but I thought that Sosa herself was pretty fucking badass.

[faustaufsaug]

I don't like Jessica Biel that much either. And then I disagreed a bit with Sosa being military police (should that be Military Police? I think so...), while Lynch was...what was he? CIA? And really I wanted Decker. I like Decker.
I think this calls for a rewatch wherein I focus more on Sosa's badassery.

[ladylade]

Yeah, Lynch was CIA. I totally have a soft spot for Lynch's craziness and Pike's craziness. Especially when they're crazy together. Like, I adore those two.
