Wow, awesome. I really love diving into Conrad's mind like that, and you did it so poignantly. Poor guy.

[anthrop]

Thank you!

[incothe]

Yes, yes you did write me into a corner.

[anthrop]

Sorry, sorry!

i am such a sap, i almost cried near the end.... with the puppy......... D: that was so great, though. thank you for being so wonderful with all your sensory descriptions. <3

[anthrop]

Good! That's exactly the right emotion I was aiming for, without going overboard (I hope). Thank you for sad-facing!

[ereku]

haha, i sadfaced extreme. <3

[anthrop]

Thank you! I love writing little real life (or in this case, real myth) factoids into my fics, so it always makes me happy when other people point them out positively.

That actually occurred to me, but I kind of loopholed it (or at least I hope I did) around the idea that Conrad didn't--accidentally or otherwise--invite Adelaide into his apartment, and that Tessa!bats can get around the invitation thing. Perhaps Tessa will address this in the comic at some point, but if not well then I'll just shrug and keep writing, haha.

Thank you for reading and commenting! <3
