EEE Count Friedrich!!! :D He was absolutely spot-on, and I love Carter and Tuck glowering behind him. XD

And Robin dressing as the Night Watchman is perfect-- I actually had that idea as the basis for a fic for the RH Big Bang, although the setup was much different. It fits perfectly here, although I seriously want to cuddle him.;)

I also really like how Guy's bouncing back.

I can't wait for more!! :D

Many thanks! I was a bit concerned about the Count, since I opted not to go for "accented" dialogue so I'm glad to hear that he sounded right anyway!

I honestly find it kind of difficult to read when accents are spelled out, and with canon characters, we know what they sound like, so this works great! :)

I do too - which is why I decided against it. All the 'z's and 'v's would have done my head in, I think :D

Exactly!! :D The right wording conveys the same thing, without making readers go cross-eyed, imo-- and you nailed what with Friedrich. :)
