Oh, ouch. How perfectly right, and how ironic!

I suspected, for a moment right there in the beginning, that her rescuer might've been Jack. (Not 'cest-fic, just Jack luring his daughter away to be with him, 'stead of her mother.) i'm glad I was wrong.

This popped into my head while I was doing laundry today. It wanted to be a revenge fic, but I couldn't imagine Will holding a grudge for 20 years. Besides, Sarah is much more her father's daughter than her mother's. ;-)

Glad you liked it!

Ouch. Well. Will's obviously irresistible to Swanns and Sparrows alike.

I'm glad you liked it. It only makes sense that if the bird-watcher watches long enough and proves he's harmless to them, the birds might take an interest in him ...

I love this little bit! Painful and perfect, all at once.

Hm! That's a terribly interesting premise, and you tied it all up so perfectly in so very few words. Refreshingly original!

Does this count as Turrow? *g*

I'm glad you thought it was worth reading!

Does this count as Turrow?

Hmm ... do you want it to? *G*

I like this! (I'm glad it didn't turn into revenge fic, because I think this is much more effective.)

It would be futile anyway, she figured, for a Sparrow of any age to explain themselves

Ha, indeed.

Love the description of the older Will, his intensity in young Billy, and Sarah's father’s smirk on her lips.

It wouldn't have worked if Will weren't Will - and Will's much more interested in going after what he wants than in spending time holding grudges. It's part of why I love the boy.

Those blasted Sparrows. Do whatever the hell they want, I tell you what ...

Thanks!
