In Fair Manhattan - Act 1, Scene 4

Act 1, Scene 4
A hall in the Waldorf-Rose house.
“Did my heart love till now? Forswear it, sight!”

The three most faithful servants of the Waldorf-Rose household stood in a corner of the room with their masks covering their faces. Beside them were Nelly Yuki and Kati Farkas, both bedecked in periwinkle blue and glancing down at their cell phones

I love this fic almost as much as I love Between the shadow. It's amazing the way you interweave the traditional Shakespeare (The saints lips interchange which is one of my absolute favorites of all time) with the actual characters. Very few people write quality AU especially ones that follow a readily known story without going really OOC but you manage to keep every one in character while still following the traditional story. Bravo!!

Can't wait for an update of this and Between the shadow.

Aw, thanks. I was craving some honest-to-God CB action that BTS just can't deliver at the moment, and I was listening to West Side Story at the time, so it all sort of collided. I considered tossing the saints lips interchange, but it was just too fun to turn it into a little CB battle of wits to let it go. =D

Glad you're enjoying it! If things get too OOC, be sure to tell me.

Wow. Chuck and Blair are hot in general, but their exchange and kisses made this even better. I like how you kept the Shakespearean tone in the language. You've reached a truly beautiful balance.
