Hi @thezoe611 Now that you completed your excellent fic Unstoppable (based on “Geronimo Saga” by @rebellingstagnationblog) I need to write once again a review about it.
(Sorry for any misspelling^^’)
SPOILER ALERT, IF SOMEONE DOESN'T WANT TO KNOW ABOUT THE STORY AND ITS LAST CHAPTERS
Wow. What an adventure. Really, I didn’t expect it to be such a suspenseful, tear-jerking and emotional story from beginning to end. You broke my heart so many times that I lost count. But I don’t regret it, because I enjoyed reading this amazing fic. Also, thanks to Geronimo Saga and Unstoppable, I finally watched for the first time all the episodes (not just some of them) of Darkwing Duck (and read for the first time the comics) last year. I understand much better why it's so popular even now.
I wrote in my first review my feelings until chapter 24 (all the pain that I suffered until that chapter). After that chapter, it was (once again) an emotional roller coaster. First of all, the plot-twists and revelations. Many of them. The biggest would be the truth about Ratigan and Gosalyn’s grandfather, of course. That chapter, auch. The pain was so big. I didn’t expect the truth to be so tragic (And poor Gosalyn, watching all those memories. The description of her emotions when she found out how her parents died was so sad😭).
Also, I’ve cried a lot with many moments of the new chapters that touched my heart🥺. If I had to choose a few moments to describe, will be:
Chapter 29: Gosalyn talking with Goofy (I cried reading that moment between those two) and later with Negaduck (I loved it. Especially after all the pain they’ve suffered in the fic). Gosalyn really needed moments like those after everything that happened to her.
Chapter 34: Once again, the plot-twist about Thaddeus Waddlemeyer. All the pain that caused his actions and mistakes, and Gosalyn watching all of them was so painful.
Chapter 36: the beginning with Tim’s flashback. I-I cannot express how I felt reading those memories without exploding because of that horrible Mortimer! I hate him! I hate him so much!
Chapter 39: the last scene. Seriously, I felt so many feelings reading the thoughts and emotions of Timothy (Poor kid 🥺😭), then Gosalyn and Max talking to him, and then… then that last moment of the three together, as a new family.
"…The warmth of a family…"
I was so, so happy reading that scene that I couldn’t stop crying for minutes.
There are more moments, of course. But if I wrote all of them, I wouldn’t know when to stop writing.
The end of Ratigan that you showed… Wow. Negaduck feelings and thoughts described very well that moment. I couldn’t enjoy that villain’s end like I expected because of the situation in his last moments.
Nega-Scrooge’s story is a conflict of emotions to me as a reader. He did horrible things to Gosalyn just to take revenge on Negaduck. However, his pain for his loss was so real. (And it’s more tragic with the revelation that Negaduck spoke to Scrooge). I felt sad with the last scene of him talking with Tim.
The discussion between Darkwing and Darkwarrior (another big surprise in the last chapter!) was very interesting (I read it many times)
In addition, I loved the moments of information, revelations and connections (I really like those moments in your fics, Zoe^^). Chapter 39 resolved so many mysteries of the story (even some that I almost forgot^^’) that I enjoyed it.
Once again, I loved how you introduced new Original Characters (It was a surprise to discover new OCs even in the last chapter). Also, I don’t forget all the new mysteries that you showed in the end. They have the potential for new stories.
Thank you for sharing this incredible story of Darkwing Duck, Zoe. I really enjoyed reading it.
I’m looking forward to reading "The Beauty and the Beast" (don’t worry. Take your time. And good luck with your tests).
