“I think when Max calls the other transgenics/transhumans her brothers and sisters she means it in a Brethren/My People kind of way. The only ones she really saw as siblings were her unit.”Sorry, but I strongly have to disagree with this. Since the writers repeatedly let Max call the other transgenics as her brothers, sisters, siblings and family it was their intention that Max sees them as that. If the writers wanted to imply it that Max means it in a Brethren/My People kind of way, why didn’t they let her describe her fellow transgenics as ‘My People’, comrades or friends in the first place? Please don’t twist the writers' words. Max also saw her fellow transgenics which weren’t in her unit and with whom she didn’t grew up and escaped in 2009 as family. She even considered Ames White and C.J. as kinda related to her. This is how far the definition of family went for Max ( ... )

Hello, darling! I can offer my services as a beta if you wish -winks-. English is not my first language, so some things may slip, but I am a constructive critique. I must tell you that I do not have a soft heart when making a review, my strength is mostly on the development of the plot, the characters and the narrative itself; I haven't see the show in a long while, so I'll be correcting the story most than the canon in it.

I can read anything you write if I must but if you want me to be honest, I don't really mind Max/Longan/or Max/MC but I don't fancy Alec with any female character... I'm more of a... er... boy with boy, if you may, specially if Alex is in the receiving end -laughs- I have a weakness for bottom!Jensen. But that is my personal preference, write what you like and I'll be imparcial.

Send a message if you are interested -smiles-.

Hi
Thanks for the offer.
I definitely would be interested in someone to give a critique. I'll contact you via PM to discuss.

I am also a huge fan of slash. :) Gotta love those pretty boys, and none come prettier than Alec.
The story is pairing free with just references to their sex lives.

Hi there! I've never betaed before, but I've always wanted to. It's been a little while since I've watched DA, but I have the Season 2 DVDs and am always looking for an excuse to re-watch. My strengths would be spelling and grammar, but I'd also be comfortable offering my opinion on plot and character development. I love all the characters and don't really prefer one ship over another as long as everyone stays in character. That is to say, I'm happy to read Max/Logan, Max/Alec or any other combo you might come up with as long as the relationship develops organically. I've only written one tiny piece of fan fiction for Sons of Anarchy myself. It's just a little scene tag called "Watch Over You" on FanFiction.net. If you'd like to check it out, here's a link to it: https://www.fanfiction.net/s/6081260/1/Watch-Over-You

Hi
Thanks for the offer.
I'll contact you via PM to discuss.

I've also never beta'ed though I've often wanted to - sometimes where it isn't wanted *g*
Though I have my preferences for pairings I tend to read any that are well written. I don't mind OOC as long as there's good reasons for it.
Never seen Sons of Anarchy so it probably won't make sense to me.
