EEEEEEEEE! I knew this was going to be awesome and it is even MORE awesome than I was expecting!
Your world building was great, right from the very first line. Jensen and Genevieve's goodbye made me all teary, and Jensen thinking he was too dumb to learn to read. The contrast between the clinical world Jensen and Jared lived in and the 'normal' things like drawing and playing games and doing laundry was really striking. Their first meeting via vent was adorable. Even though I knew what was generally going on, I was on tender hooks several times, and all with the 'oh no'ing when Jensen's asking questions and not getting answers and all the clones were preggers and just AUGH. Probably I wasn't supposed to, but I thought the scene where the doctors find out Jensen's pregnant was kind of funny - could you imagine their faces? I really liked the variety of characters/personalities/backgrounds among the freedom fighters and the fact that none of them were perfect or blameless. Alona's perspective was particularly interesting and I'm glad Danneel is there so that they've got at least one level head in the group. I hope Cindy is okay.
I'm glad that Jared and Jensen decided to keep the baby and I melt into a puddle of goo over the fact that her name's Genevieve. Man I bet Tristan and Ross are pissed. Suckers.

Yay, you! I enjoyed this so much!
