Comments on old stories are terrific. I love that people are still discovering my stuff and liking it.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

First instance of reading "mind field" I chalked up to some kind of authourial pun. It kinda fit in the context. No, second instance and it's definitely an "intensive purposes" blunder.

Also, I'd never say this to her face because I don't want her to stop writing, but for awhile now scifigrrl47 has become too infatuated with her OCs and with writing witty banter. Yay her for getting unique and original but these are not the reasons why I started reading her and liked it. And yet these stories exist in 'verses that in invested in. Or was. But now I think I must finally unsubscribe from the tertiary characters and their dry repartee.

The OCs weren't why I signed up either. But I'm quite fond of them now, so I've been enjoying the focus on them. Eh, different folks, different AO3 subscriptions.

No! Ach! That's the same fucking thing! One way to make this worse is to include the mention of Jonquils.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

To be fair, at a nursery, the narcissus and the daffodil are considered different beasts, albeit siblings.

Does anyone know troll_under_the_bridge? The writing style is Yoda meets inappropriate synonym replacement plus some other undefinable ESL or something. I don't kno what I'm reading half the time but I haven't back buttoned yet.

Example: "It was not about wishing something for himself anymore, realized he with warm contentment."
