Yay!!!! Most excellent story, my dear! Ramon is an awesome character - I love how you brought him to life here. A unique perspective that I thoroughly enjoyed! I especially liked the dialogue - I could really hear the banter between Ramon and his partner and Alec's characterization came out skillfully as well.

I'm bummed I wasn't able to write for this challenge myself, but so happy that you did!

Thank you, very much! I'm glad you enjoyed it. It turned out to be a fun day of writing, because I did like Ramon and I adored the way he pretended to 'hear' Ames White tell him to go after the transgencis. It's a pity you couldn't make it to the challenge - I would have loved that.

That was lovely! I liked the outsider point of view and the way Ramon became a fully rounded character, and the way it seamlessly fit into the ending of the show was great. Thank you!!!

Well, thank you very much, I really appreciate the comment. There were some things I regretted about the cancellation of the show, and one of them was the fact that what I saw as respect and integrity in the character of Ramon was not given the opportunity to be brought to a relationship with the transgenics. He made a rather nice contrast to all the White stuff! And I always loved his brush off of White at the end - it showed tremendous humour and no small amount of brass.
So thnak you again, I am very glad you enjoyed it, and grateful for you taking the time to comment.

Excellent stuff!

It's so nice to have Alec back, if only for a short visit. They're showing Dark Angel on one of the minor cable channels here and every time I catch an episode I can't help but wonder all over again what happened top them. I always thought Ramon was on their side, even if he wasn't obvious about it. I like what you wrote, it fits so well with the end. You took things just as I wanted.

Thank you.

Oh, thnak you, gorgeous woman! Yes, I rekcon had the show continued, Ramon would have been an ally - but there would have been ramifications for him following his delicious brush off of White at the end, I'm sure.

I adore Alec. I didn't 'adore' DA, but there were many aspects that were terrific (the production design amongst them), and the Freak Nation idea was one that could have been very interesting. After all the camp of the breeding cult stuff, there was a concept that could have developed into something strong. Alas, for lovers of political comment and Alec's cheekbones, it was not to be.

Thank you for reading and saying lovely things. You have brightened my day.

I like brightening your day but I also like Alec. I wish there'd been some decent slash with him but i guess the problem was who to pair him with.

I did like this!

Oh yes - Alec/Logan does *not* work. So unless you write an OC, there's no other choice (Alec/Sketchy?? Alec/Ames?? Alec/Normal!!??)

The thing about young Jensen, in particular, is that he would slash so well. There's a feminine aspect to his beauty, the way he moves, but his persona is thoroughly male. It makes for all kinds of wonderful ambiguities. As Robert Hughes says, the really interesting things happen at the borders. Alec is pressed right up against that male/female border at times...

Thank you for the kind feedback! I would have loved to have seen more of Clemente (not least because that would have meant we had Season 3...) but I really liked what we did see. I'm glad that this has worked for you regarding his character. And thank you for letting me know.
