Re: Adventures at Morecastle, Part 3 - 7 weeks ago

QuoteDarcy thought of all those days he had sat in the Collins’s parlor and said nothing, and rued the time he had wasted. That line just screams "plot bunny" to me. This is such an enjoyable story.

Re: Adventures at Morecastle, Part 1 - 8 weeks ago

I particularly liked the "well met" and "our grove" lines, as well as this exchange: QuoteHe met her eyes almost sternly. “Do you imagine that I stared out of indifference? Or that I sought you repeatedly in the grove because I disliked you?” Since that was precisely what she had so foolishly imagined, she blushed anew, her gaze falling. Yet at the last she rallied herself enough to say, “What I
