Lovely story. I enjoy Sarah/Derek immensely, but my heart will always rest with Sarah/Kyle. I loved the points you touched on. It's a very thought provoking piece.

[powergrapes]

Thank you. I think I can get on board with Sarah/Derek... but Sarah/Kyle would still be my OTP.

[worlddescending]

I agree-- never forget Kyle.

I really liked the perspective here and it seemed totally in character of the interactions between John and Cameron.

yay. Nicely done! I especially loved the bit about John being the only one who could break Sarah's heart.

Thank you!

I liked the part about how Charley and Derek wasn't the same, Derek was on the inside, Derek was more of a threat to Jahn/Sarah, and not in a shippy way, he knew Kyle, Derek's family. Loved this, and I agree that Sarah/Derek are prolly inevitable but I think Derek has to get the taste of metal out of his mouth first.

Your icon + "taste of metal" just takes me to bad Derek/Cameron places.

(Not bad as in bad. Naughty would be a better word.)

Do you like Derek/Cameron? If so I will try to get my plot bunnies adopted. I think a good one would be "Cameron catches Derek in her room." Another one running around my head is "Sarah sends Derek and Cameron on a mission together", it should involve, pool, a nonlethal barfight and alcohol.

I have all sorts of nutty ships about this show. In my head, it's like a nutty love quadrangle in that house. ;)

I have a Derek/Cameron fic in mind, but it's pretty dark. I think I'll keep those plot bunnies in mind for when I need something lighter.

Very lovely. I liked the open-ended dialogue, Cameron's peculiar (and right-on) observations, John's internal monologue. Very well written! Thank you for sharing.

"Human attachments are only complicated to the people who have them."

Very nice. I like the open-endedness to it, and how Cameron's machine-ness gives her this unique perspective on issues that perplex emotionally guarded humans. As you show, clear logic can sometimes be an asset, and together, John and Cameron have an abundance of head and heart.

Thanks. I have this idea in my head of John and Cameron being a great team of perfect counterparts. I'm really glad that other people could pick that up. :)
