OH. OH. OH MY GOD.
HOW CAN 10K FEEL LIKE IT WAS OVER IN A SECOND? THAT IS HOW GOOD YOU ARE. MY MOUSE JUST KEPT SCROLLING AND MY BRAIN JUST KEPT GOBBLING UP THIS AWESOMENESS AND THE AMAING CLIFFHANGER ENDING. GURRRRRRL, DAMN.
Okay, I know I told you this before but a;sldkfj I LOVE THIS PLOTTY STUFF. It is truly delicious. I am just..my mind boggles at your ability to weave all these little details and subplots and action and intrigue. It just all reads so seamlessly! You are a master.
I LOVE all the gorgeously angsty bits in this. And I love that you manage to make those moments hurt like a punch in the gut without being over the top about it. You slip in lines about Morgan and Ellie and Chuck's regret and reluctance and it's all so nuanced and perfect.
ALSO.
Can I just talk about how amazing your handling of these ships is? (Not that it isn't always) Especially sections like this

“Right because the best way to hurt someone is kill the people close to them.” The idea makes his skin crawl, makes him glad for his sister’s absence

*lets out audible sigh of relief

Lol dude! Possibly thirteen parts? a;sldkfj Be lucky you were not able to witness the noise I just made. Good golly miss molly that is the best freaking news I've heard in a while. And whaddya know! It is possible to legitimately come up with that much wonderful plot without having to resort letting the show devolve into Schmoop City. TAKE NOTE CHUCK WRITERS.

I'm really glad you had more fun writing them this time around! I'm sorry they were giving you such a hard time in the first part. (Not that it came across in the story whatsoever). And I love your dedication to them being something more important than just sex. Again with something this long, you really kind of have to have that lol but still! It makes me happy!

Yay! ♥!

Very nice! I read the first part to get up to speed and really, really enjoyed this. I like your AU, here. I also like how you've nailed Sarah and Casey. You write them so well. Poor Casey and his foot, I hope he'll get some respite. Anyways, great story, hope to read more of this AU. Do you have more planned? :)Ali

[slybrunette]

This thing should run for 13 parts (probably) and I have vague plans for all of them. So, yes, there will be lots more.

I'm so glad to hear that you enjoyed this! Thanks for reading and reviewing!

I may have just died from excitement from the prospect of the next instalment. I shall read and return with gushing comments as per usual. I'm sick and addicted to your fic and please don't bother with a cure.

[slybrunette]

lol, oh god. I hope it pleases you :)

Baby, sweetie, darling!!!

This fic is like a box of chocolates, I read a bit and had to stop because I was enjoying it so much. Also I went back to re-read the first one which I'd saved on my computer.

Loved the scope and rance of the whole thing. The traveling aspect of Chuck and Bryce's bits of the story was fantabulous. Loved the descriptions of Gianni and what Bryce was thinking.

As for the Sarah/Casey. So fantastic. Your Sarah was smart and realistic for a SUPERSPYCHICK. And CARINA. Love her. Can't believe the show hasn't figured out what's so great about her or maybe they have and they've just lost the plot on everything else?

I wanna quote the whole thing. I really do. I'm gonna pick one bit that just got me so friggin hard:

“No, I should’ve just asked you to come. The one good idea Morgan’s had in the last two days.” It catches her off guard, the almost warm way he says it. Hell, it even seems to catch him off guard from the way he seems to frown at his own reflection in the rearview mirror

You are one of my absolute favorite Chuck writers. When I look through my fic folder in bookmarks, so many stories by you. Lyrical, dark, lovely. I wish you published at fanfiction.net so I could add you to the archive I run over there and introduce you to a wider audience. The fandom needs more writers like you.
