This story makes me so happy I honestly do not have words to express my joy. You got your chocolate in my peanut butter -- two of my very favorite things in the world, intermingled so deliciously! I just kept clutching my heart and gasping with joy, reading this: Jinto, and Caldwell, and dragons named Sateda and Athos, and Rodney telling John's story, and John's heart-to-heart with Temeraire (and oh, God, Rodney's eavesdropping and his oh-so-Rodney response) -- I am ALL ASQUEE, I have to go rec this on my livejournal RIGHT NOW.

GOD I love this fandom. \o/!

Your happy is making ME (the author!) so happy! Oh, oh, I am so glad you liked it so well! ♥!

(P.S. Tripudio is Latin for 'jump' - she's his Jumper :D)

[kassrachel]

I just --

"You are not?" Temeraire asked, tilting his head. "Are you quite sure?"

OH TEMERAIRE.

and then "Why not?" asked Temeraire. "That is a very stupid rule." -- that is so him! and "I would wager a very small trinket on the matter. Small, but pretty and particularly shiny, you understand."

and

"I have walked a great distance, considering my condition, and I am in no mood to tolerate a swoon. Your sin? What incomprehensible nonsense is that?"

asdfkasdfjkasdkjfas;dkfj OH RODNEY!

[kassrachel]

Hee, hee! I love Rodney's refusal to tolerate a swoon!

Thank you so, so much!

Tripudio is Latin for Jumper?!? You are wonderful. And I loved the story. You are so very true to Temeraire and Laurence, just as you are to John and Rodney. Great sroty!

[vamysteryfan]

thank you so much!

[muchabstracted]

Oh, that's what it means! Thank you, I was wondering. But a google search didn't turn anything up. :)

Oh my gooooooood. I don't even have the words to convey how fucking awesome that was! And I've never read the books! Now I want to! A lot! Oh, Sheppard. He's so hard on himself that, like, a TEAM of people and dragons have to free him from it. And they do and it is AWESOME! Oh, oh and this bit "Rodney." Sheppard shook his head again and looked upon his friend. "I . . . find it disquieting to be so well known by someone other than myself. That is all." because it's still so THEM, as if you plopped those two stupid boys back in time and the are just as messed up and in love and necessary for each other as we know them now.

Seriously. I am INCOHERENT WITH GLEE! ♥ ♥ ♥

[amberlynne]

You should definitely read the books! As soon as possible! :D :D I know you'd love them

and THANK YOU! :D

....OH MY GOD I AM AT WORK AND SO I CAN'T READ YET BUT JUST THE TITLE MADE ME SCREAM SO THAT MY COWORKER TRIED TO LOOK OVER MY SHOULDER AND I ALMOST HIT HER IN THE FACE.

WILL REVIEW ON SATURDAY BUT OH MY GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[tropes]

Yay, yay, yay, yay! I hope you like the rest as much as the title!

[tropes]

....Oh, my Gosh.

Whoever you are, this is beautiful. Every detail, every exchange, Laurence and Temeraire, and Tripudio means jump in Latin, JESUS.

This is something I am going to be re-reading for years and to think it was written for me as a Christmas gift...

I feel really, really blessed.

I will probably post more lavish praise later.

[tropes]

You have no idea how happy it makes me that you liked it. YAY! :D
