Parrish, you have a time problem? Now listen Parrish. I haven`t seen a picture of you but I`m sure that you are beautiful enough to skip over a couple of hours off your beauty sleep and use those hours for serious research work to satisfy your hungry readers.
Seriously Parrish, I appreciate this information we get through your fic. I find that fics are much more interesting if they have even a slight connection with reality. This info doesn`t have to be 100% accurate, after all these stories are fiction. And this info we get, well, it`s that kind what I don`t necessarily search by myself so it`s all new to me. Thanks!
And... YEAH!

I'm speechless!! That was just breahttaking! I *love* chapter 11! Lena and Yulia were so adorable in it! You're an awsome writer! How do you do that?

[dare2dream28]

*grins* Parrish--OMG that last chapter...just SO freaken cute!!! *grins some more* When it went from Volk to Yulia I went all sappy and went "Awwwwwwwwwwwww!!!!!" *grins so much it won't come off my face* Seriously Parrish, I have *never* had one person with all the various stories you've written, bring out so many emotions out of me, and I am *not* an emotional person by all means. I call president of the PFC (Parrish Fan Club)!

[parrish122]

Ack! I *was* tired this morning. I forgot to tell the titles of the chapters! They are "At Thirteen" and "Can This Possibly Be True".

And thank you Lena410 and Dare2dream! I know chapter 11 has been *my* favorite in this fic so far, so I'm glad you liked it too.

Thanks!

This is the most awesomest war story ever. You're brain must me worth millions parrish!

[showMElove2]

Loving this story!

[PoisonousTruth]

Oh yeah, I got to read two chapters at once. *does the happy dance and 'raises the roof'* Hey.. Ho.. Hey.. Ho...

And no, I'm not calling anyone a Ho.*L*

[prostrel]

Thank you Parrish, you saved my day again! It`s so much easier and more pleasant to start to do some housework (cleaning windows this time) when you have read an enjoyable chapter, or two in this case of the great fic. Last chapter was very touching, Julia was so vulnerable.

[dare2dream28]

I realised that in all my excitement of my last post, I forgot to comment on some other things in the chapters! First of all Parrish, I'm really glad you included the thing about the snake bite. I am a huge snake fan and I worked with them this summer so it was nice to see that info out and about. I'm glad you included the fact that you do NOT suck out the venom. I've recently read that now you're not even supposed to tie off the part where you've been bitten, buutttt I'm not so sure I believe it. And yes, a venonmous snake can bite you up to two hours after the head has been cut off so yeah, DON'T TOUCH! LOL *goes back to read chapters again*

[parrish122]

*points at dare2dreams post* See! See! I really am making an effort to make this stuff accurate!

Chapter 12, "The Next Day" Is up!

And thanks to all of you that give me feedback. It truly helps.

chapter 12 is beautiful - as is the rest of the story of course.

great work parrish

[parrish122]

Thanks Amikana!

Chapter 13, "The Farm" is up.

And remember, I *did* warn you that this was going to be a darker fic than my usual stuff.

Parrish

[amikana]

omg. i'm guessing that places like this actually do exist....i'm so disgusted by that. i don't want to give anything away but, how people can do stuff like that...*shudders* i don't understand it.

i still look forward to the remainder of the story though.

[prostrel]

Thanks Parrish! Chapter 13 really was darker than others, though it was also hard when Lena`s parents were killed (sorry, I don`t remember what chapter it was). But, I like dark as long as there are no bugbears.

[dare2dream28]

Wow! Chapter 12...sweet. Chapter 13...WOAH! Talk about emotion! Poor Guerra. I can see why she acted the way she did...I probably would have too if I was in that situation. As always, great writing parrish and I can't wait for the next chapter!

[rivierakid]

Dude...that was creepy man.

Awesome chapter, just creepy. Man, I'd be sick if I saw that, and I have a pretty strong stomach. o.O;;

[parrish122]

Thanks gang!

Amikana--I don't *know* that places like that exist, but it wouldn't surprise me. I certainly *hope* that it hasn't gone on to that degree (well, I hope that it hasn't gone on at all, for that matter). Needless to say, I came up with *that* idea when I was feeling a little less than cheery about human nature.

Prostrel, Dare2dream, Riviera--thanks, as always, for the feedback. That *was* a creepy chapter, even for me to read! It's funny how sometimes a secondary character will suddenly start pushing closer to the surface. I've got plans for Guerra's character anyway, but I didn't have any idea of what her background was. Until last night, and I started writing.

And I'm with you, Riviera. I think I'd have been at the door, trying not to get sick!

Thanks again!
