I love this story more and more with each passing chapter! Your writing is beautiful and so expressive, it creates the most intense picture in my mind. Ringo is so adorable and the way he behaves around Kayden is so natural. It's refreshing to read a story on this site that is as well-written as yours. Can't wait for the next chapter!

Having read both The Jigsaw, and the Broken Road, I have to wonder why this one hasn't gotten as much attention! I love realistic original slash fiction, and this is so well written. That's not to say that I don't love The Jigsaw, but this one is a fair bit calmer, and that's perhaps what I like about it. Jigsaw is an emotional roller coaster, while this one feels must less up and down, up and down.

Looking forward to the next chapter!

Oh - this is awful of me. I haven't actually read your stories yet. (I will - I will!)

I'm writing because of your comments on Nicea. I'm aware of some of the historical mistakes I made, but not many. I've read a lot of Mary Renault - and tended to use her description plus what I looked up for Greece. I've read many various accounts of Rome and thought everything I wrote was at least possible...

I would love for you to give me specifics of what I got wrong.

Many, many thanks!

i expect to be dazzled by your brilliance till i can see&feel no more;)
i liked the phone conversation with dad cause it makes it more realistic.
i mean children actually converse with their parents.sometimes;)
i think i would like kayden on ringo or the other way around sooner then later.
another kiss would be fine too.

Hi again (from an older jigsaw review).

Put me down with Mrreye (?) that I really appreciate a good read and you give it. S/he said it longer, but still... I also don't review much, have to force myself to review at all, but this is worth it.

An idea about # of reviews. I check a few different writing sites and this is definitely the most 'porn'-ish of them all. If you are posting slash that has less sex and more depth, you might get better/longer/more comments if you cross post at www.fictionpress.com. Do a search on TRSNG (an author); s/he has an impressive favorites list that'll show you some of the better slash there. (Check out Zebbie for works not focused on teenage angst, she's awesome.)

Also, consider getting a livejournal account and cross-posting there, too. Some good, thoughtful stuff there, as well.

Hey, the next chapter of Jigsaw came out the same day I was rushing to catch a flight cross country, so I didn't review. But it continues to be awesome. :-)

Polish, spanish, same thing, right? Heh. (a little embarassed, cause I'm actually fluent in latin america spanish and thought I could recognize its influence!)

heya! I just finished both of your stories! I like them very much=D I'll review both in here if you don't mind:P anyway I really like that your stories and characters have a how do you say uhm they have character?XD hahah lame but I think you get me but seriously I get pretty sick with all the stories that have no plot what so ever and only have smut and the smut starts in what two minutes in the story? not the whine but I'm glad I found this story what you could actually read I have nothing against smut don't get me wrong but I like it when it grows ya know? With actual feelings and not a lust at first sight mistaken for love*rolls eyes* Because then It actually has meaning and depthxD wellll anyways I really like both your stories very much and in Jigsaw how you made Sam like a machine and his emotions and everything so well I really like it, and when he got the titanium plate and black artificial eye it made him a machine in every sense...how he copes with it wow anyways enough of my blabbering but it is a review so hahaha this is the first time I review in AFF :P anyway good job!

I am officially in love with this story now. I started off read The Jigsaw and I thought that I would give this story a try. I wasn't really drawn in at first, but as I continued reading the chapters it grew on me. The characters are so real and they don't just seem like characters from a story and they have such a chemistry between them. I will definitely continue to read and cannot wait for you to update.

Excellent story!!! Really good! Keep up the good work!

dunno.
honestly i haven't even touched jigsaw after ch3.
i find this story waaaay ..
well,it's just better suited for my taste.
and that chapter with the kiss was one of the best slashy scenes i ever read in my life(and i'm not that young or unex.with slash stories)


maybe cause the best firnd ztheme is used often(school time too) and because the title is a bit omnious(i like it btw.)
i'd say the kissing scene set me on fire just like the couple in the story preservance(the title) did.


no way this stoy isn't goood.
anyway, you should let your muse enjoy the sun while it lasts.
just write.
it's a great story.
the reviews will come.
there are stories i've reviewd or started reading while they were half way through.
plus,holidays.
god knows where ppl are at and can they be slash lovers in public;)))
happy holidays!

wow that was some kiss they shared....
it's a great story.
can't wait for the'present' time.
