I liked this the first time around, and I still like it.

Although, I noticed you left out the 's on Edward's hand and used spend instead of spent. Just thought you should know, even if I have no room to talk. ^.^"

Still like this one... sharibet February 5 2006, 04:46:08 UTC
And you're right, the dialogue is more in-character for Ed. Just a couple of homophone problems:

It was then the front door opened and closed quietly and the uneven gate sounded in the hall.

"gate" versus "gait" The first is used for the door-like thing; the second is how you walk. So, really, the above should have "uneven gait," if it's referring to the sound of Ed's footsteps.

...moved his mouth to illicit more cries and more thrashing.

"illicit" versus "elicit" illegal versus "to draw forth" I think you wanted "elicit" here, since Alfons is trying to draw forth more cries.

Why, yes, I *do* have the soul of a copyeditor! Great story, though.

Thanks! Yeah, upon reading it again (I rarely read over my stuff once it's finished unless I'm looking for a line or plot point for later in the story) I was like...wtf was I smoking when I wrote THIS?

AH! Thanks for the catches, I'll go in and edit them! =D

That's wonderful. I don't even remember what the previous dialogue was, this felt so natural and right and perfect. ^_^
