Completely off-topic, I finished DSoT today. Honestly, I'd like to say something informed and intelligent here, but mostly I just want to be you when I grow up, and that's pretty much the whole of the sitch.
Specifically, I don't think I've laughed quite as hard or as well in years as I did during the scene wherein Daniel finds everything out. Everything about that scene, the dialogue, the flow, everything, was absolutely perfect and I shall now go off and die of happiness intertwined with burning jealousy.
Another thing? I am consistently amazed by people who can write their characters having fights and getting through those fights. I think it's a by-product of the fact that I don't really have knock down drag-out fights with people, I have highly communicative fights that pretty much end where they start, and so I can't write conflict well. At all. But oh dear lord, hon, do you ever. Ever.
Thank you so much for this story, it was beyond brilliant.
