I have to say I do like just about all your stories. Though I have to wonder if I should take each one as a separate instance of the WH13 universe or if they all occur in the same canon. Still, very good, carry on and all that.

One point though:

She was sure that HG had owned a lot of clothes way back when. She could tell by the way she carried herself, and how she always looked matriculate.

'matriculate' is to enroll at a college or uni, or to be someone in attendance at the same. You might mean 'meticulous' though in that context it would be 'and how she was always meticulous about her appearance.' For a straight one-for-one exchange you can use 'impeccable'.

Sorry if I'm coming off as a stickler.

Oh I completely understand. With the prospect of hot yuri in the offing the mind does tend to wander. I however, can be a pedant at the most awkward of times. A failing with which I am unfortunately burdened. =P

*L* thank you for pointing it out. This is what happens when you beta your own stuff and run spell check at 1 AM after having been up since the crack of dawn :D
I try to catch everything, but it's not always easy, especially if you select the wrong thing by mistake from the spell check options. After a while you read what you want it to say. At least I do.

Don't get me wrong. I like the word 'matriculate'. It sounds filthy.
