Thanks Lt. for the problems to pass the message yourself
Your beta lied. That should read:
Thanks, Lieutenant, for taking the trouble to deliver the message personally
(or "in person")
Are you European? I'm just wondering because of the way you write. It feels like non-native English speaker--but not German, has to be some other language.
You need a native-speaking beta (America/Canada or Australia/NZ is best; Brits often don't realize how many Britishisms they're using and it makes Star Trek fanfic seem really ... off). Trust me, it's worth it.
Despite the language barrier I am enjoying your story. You do a nice job of setting the scene and there's a certain poetry to your writing.
ohh thanks a lot for your comment i will ask for another beta! in our defense we have a deadline just there. and i didn't notice i have more problems. Because like you said, I'm Spanish and i studied Brit's english,
thanks for your comment and for liking the story anyway! :)
