I LOVE YOUR NOTES. Seriously, I would be totally happy if you put fiction-writing on hold for a bit and just wrote a bunch of posts about COOL HISTORY THINGS.
I also love Ugetsu's explanation for his clothes, G and Maria's Arrangement, Elena, G's view of Daemon Spade and the Guardians in general, and not least everyone-except-Giotto's total lack of knowledge concerning Vongola's name. I love how G is not Gokudera at all but remains rather like him, and that goes for everyone right down to Maria & Kyouko.
I already mentioned it, but G's like-me-but-with-less-self-awareness thoughts on Daemon Spade are fascinating.
The whole fic is basically made of favourite lines, but here's one anyway: It’s tough, but for Giotto’s sake, I refrain from any and all victory dances I may feel like doing.
ANYWAY. G's voice is totally on point and perfect, and I love this fic and everything it chooses to be (with extra Italian history references).

I'm so happy you liked my take on the Primos! It was fun trying to strike that close-but-not-too-close balance with the Tenth Gen. And Spade! I didn't think anything could make that guy sympathetic, but then they introduced Elena, and it was like, "Oh, so you are Gokudera GONE HORRIBLY WRONG." I still don't like him, but at least I get where he's coming from now. Yikes.

THIRDED, SO THIRDED. (*Coughs* I mean, speaking as someone who didn't actually read the fic, but skipped straight to the notes.)
That is SO not required. Kate Beaton has made a WHOLE CAREER out of saying funny things about history! She has twobooks out now. And don't tell me she has facts on her side - read some of her comics.
A funny history blog is a real option, I'm telling you.
