Finally got caught up with Threads on FF.net. My ship, it is ablaze! As always I love the writing, love the scenarios, and of course I love the cussin' because that's how I imagine Gambit would talk as well.
Thought there were a few awkward pieces of dialogue as you aren't American so the syntax might evade you some, but that's about it. I know you probably aren't updating it anymore, but much <3 to you all the same.
Your ship is ablaze, therefore my ship is ablaze - I thank you wholeheartedly for the compliment.
I have indeed updated, and Threads WILL be finished, as (between you and me) the last tale is done and all it needs is to be edited. Finally 7 years of my life is coming to a welcome end! ;)
Your criticism as far as dialogue goes is well-founded. I often wonder if I've got things wrong, but since people don't particularly point things out, I'm in the dark. It's difficult to write something you're not familiar with. Normally there's a rule against that in literature (don't write what you don't know about), but hey, this is fanfiction. Besides, I guess there's a fair bit I get wrong, more than people are willing to pick at point by point. :p I should employ a beta reader really. :p
Anyway, thanks again, sorry for the delay in replying, and I hope all's well.
