As always, you weave a fantastic tale! I cannot wait for further chapters. I like the Clark Kent/Superman concept. It makes for great plot devises and twists. Dustfinger will be left guessing for awhile, I'm sure. :D Keep up the good work, my friend!

[ani_coolgirl]

:D Thanks, I'm glad you like it!

I like the Clark Kent/Superman thing too. He totally invented the duality concept when it comes to secret identities, so I just had to use it.

Yes, I'm going to jerk Dustfinger around for a little while longer, but not for too long! I want to get to the lurvin' as quickly as possible without making it a cop-out.

[yaoi_queen]

Oh hellz yes, it will be great! :D

Haha! I love when Dusty get jerked around and thrown for a loop, so your story concept will do that nicely. XD

"I want to get to the lurvin' as quickly as possible without making it a cop-out."
Hahaha!! You and I have such similar mind frames. We want the man-on-man lovin' to come as quickly as possible. X3 But, as fellow writers, we also are aware of the fact that a good plot line and story is very important. And you definitely don't fall short in that category. :3 I eagerly await future chapters.

Btw, I LOVE~~~ your banner!! <333

[ani_coolgirl]

Yeah, I'm a bit plot obsessed. Thank god for PWP writers.

I'm glad you like my banner! Playing with the colors was fun. :D

Silvertongue peeled his gaze away from the feather and onto the man. He kept a feather on the off chance he might run into its owner again? When the owner was of the Motley Folk?

Did you mean to put "Dustfinger" there? Just curious.

Amazing as always. I love what your doing with the whole, as you put it, clark kent/superman silvertongue/bluejay thing, it'll be interesting when Dusty figures it out. He'll probably be mentally slapping himself. Also:

Dustfinger twirled the jay feather between his fingers.

Silvertongue wasn’t anybody important.

The Bluejay on the other hand…

I love irony.

Can't wait for more!

[ani_coolgirl]

:o That I did! Thanks for catching my typos.

There will be much self-slapping involved once Dustfinger puts two and two together. I love irony too. Thanks for reading! :D

Ach! I didn't even see that you'd posted this! *is shamefaced*

It's beautiful, as always. I love the inclusion of our fairytales; it's little things like that that add a sense of realism to this story.

Also, I must mention that my brother is an obsessive Smallville fan, so I give you kudos on the Clark Kent/Superman idea on his behalf. I certainly hope Bluejay's disguise is better than Superman's. "Hey look! I took off my glasses! Clearly I have been rendered unrecognizable!" XD

[ani_coolgirl]

Wipe that shame right off your face! I'm just happy you read it! :D

I'm glad you like it! The fairytale thing was sort of a last-minute inclusion, but I knew right away that I didn't want to use the fairytale's actual names. There's a reason for it, though. It'll all come together in the end...

Your obsessive brother and I have a lot in common. Goooo Smallville! Yeah, Mo's disguise is a little better than dear old Clark's, but I'm sure there's a logical explanation for the whole glasses thing... I just haven't thought of a good one yet...

Can I have my shameface back if I admit the only reason I saw this update was because I was absorbed with posting my own ficlet on inkheart_bound at the time? I'll admit, I've kind of grown fond of my shameface. My friends tell me it makes me look like Antonio Banderas.

You like Smallville too, huh? If you admit to a love of The Dark Knight, he'll probably propose to you. :)

Also, is it okay if I steal your header, not for my LJ, but to use as my computer wallpaper? I've kind of fallen in love with it. *gropes header inappropriately and hopes you don't notice*

[ani_coolgirl]

Well, if it makes you look like Antonio Banderas...

Love The Dark Knight? Love The Dark Knight? Love is not a strong enough word. I worship the ground it metaphorically walks on. Is your brother hot? ^^;;

Steal away! I don't mind if it's for personal use. :D
