“What?”

I uttered it before I could waver. “I will take care of Mother and Little Igor.”

I tried to pronounce that keyboard-noise in my head, and it made me laugh!

You're an excellent writer! I love the story about your surname, and how your family ended up with it. You have so much talent, so don't belittle yourself!

After a while, you start thinking in Alex-speak ... it's a little unsettling XD

Hello,
I came here after reading that exact story on FF.net (and I'm delighted to see you've written plenty more EiI! the week is saved)-- it's amazing. It is so in tone and context of the novel that I had to go check if it was not directly and completely taken from it because it just fills the gaps seamlessly - well not 'gaps' since the contents are there, but ... well, this is precisely how it must have been and would have sounded if Alex had retold it, so it feels so natural that it becomes hard to see and properly value the achievement in thinking of it, but surely that is the biggest achievement there could be. Bravo!
