It's fantastic :D Esca's feelings, how he half welcomes them, half tries to squash them, Marcus being beautiful, graceful and overall amazing, Fiona (go, gurl!), the whole atmosphere (suddenly not that horribly oppressive once Esca has Marcus to brighten his day) - just wow :D

And it was a real pleasure to make that pic, I'll do my best about Marcus, like I promised :)

A pic of Marcus, too!!! *runs around in circles*

The way Esca's holding that ruler...well, you know where my mind headed immediately. :D

[ladytiferet]

Well, it's actually a cane (or a switch, or whatever the proper name is for a stick you beat small boys with :P) :D

I need a body pic for Marcus, though, before I can do anything, it's not easy to find a bulky schoolmaster photo :)

[awarrington]

One of those weird USspeak/Britspeak things - what Americans call a cane, we call a walking stick. Here, a cane is pretty much exclusively identified with the instrument of torture that used to be used in schools. :)

As for the bodypic for Marcus, I shall keep searching... :)

It's a date! That's what it is! A date where there will be date-like things like eating all the amazing food and staring longingly at Marcus' shoulders. Date, I say. DAAAAAAAAAATE.

*ahem* Apparently I'm getting a little too carried away by this story. *sips tea* Won't happen again. Do carry on.

[riventhorn]

Ah! I was so ready to get into the dinner and the flirting!! *pines for more*

Everything feels so real in this--the other characters, the daily activities--it's just wonderful.

Oh, I'm so excited! The story continues to be excellent, thank you!

It's a DAAAAAATE!!!

And I rather like young Fiona, I must say.

Esca, stop pretending and just get on with letting yourself be seduced into bed, will you?
