It's a shame that not many people have commented on this -- it's a beautifully done piece of work with just the right amount of tension to keep the story moving yet isn't frantic. Your characterizations are beautifully done. Hirsch is frightening more in this fic than in "Ultimatum", and it's eerie to read his conversation with Vosen and realize that the guy is really off his nut.

And the angst with Bourne (sorry -- David) is perfect; it isn't overly sloppy or emo but it isn't entirely cold-hearted and emotionless. You convey the difficulty of a screwed-up guy attempting to adjust to things that he hasn't really had in the last two, three years.

Landy is excellent, too. Nice to see some background on her -- her character isn't usually that deeply examined by people, and it's cool that you're expanding so much on the past.

So far? Good job. I certainly want to read more.

Beautiful job. You have done a wonderful job with characterization, and I loved the last line about watching over Pamela.

I'm glad you're enjoying it! I have read a draft or two of Ultimatum. And I get why they cut or changed what they did, but there were some incredible moments in those early drafts. :)
