I'm allergic to hazelnuts now toooo! IT SUCKS. I MISS NUTELLA SO MUCH. *clings to fellow sufferer*
I love the foreshadowing. And the lol!Eton. And the amazing awkward conversation in the morning! And I have realised I'm imagining the heights totally wrong for your fic - in my head, Anne and Richard are so much closer in height. So that was interesting. Another difference I tend to forget is the coffee, because I pretty much never write anyone as not liking coffee; they all live on it (well, for my RP character it's coffee and wine, lol). I know it's totally nerdy, but I love these tiny headcanon variations. XD
You know, slasheuse said I was excessively posh the other day, which I think is most unfair; only old Etonians deserve to be teased! The BATLIKE bit made me die all over again. And his LITTLE NOSE, omg. God, the whole bit with the rain was so superb. They should ALWAYS BE DRENCHED. Do you primariyl identify with Richard in this fic as a whole, or with Anne? (Just curious!)
That is because your!Richard is short and mine is tall. Anne is short but also curvy while Richard is a stick. ;)
I also love tiny headcanon variations, which is why I had a really long paragraph in the second part of this commentary about people's eye colors!
AND YES. I MISS HAZELNUTS. AND SO MUCH CHOCOLATE HAS THEM. I will not die if I eat them, but I will throw up. (Same deal with pine nuts, which is only a problem in the context of pesto, but I love pesto. I make it with walnuts.)

Actually I think I identify most with Robbie's miserable feeling of watching other people being happy with each other in his presence, even though in most other ways he is the character who is least like me (because he is cool and I am not). But Richard and Anne both have a lot of me in them; in terms of what people want from their relationships as hashed out in this fic, I'm more like Anne in the sense of being very monogamous, but she is way more confident
( ... )
That's so weird, with the hazelnuts, because epic vomming sounds AWFUL and much nastier than anything I've had! (I don't really believe the whole 'death' thing.) Aww, Nutella. So much envy for people who are allowed it.
ANYWAY. My Anne is quite tall! Maybe about 5'8"? Something like that. And in my head Richard's, IDK, a bit taller but not hugely so. He's not the historical RII's 6', no. So I am conscious of his relative shortness to yours, but I hadn't properly realised about Anne, actually, until now.
Apparently I like to make stuff awkward for couples I write by doing things like requiring one of them to stand on a box so they can make out, or something. ;)
(also in modern AUs I tend to adjust heights to 20th-c standards -- in the 14th c. 5'8" would be pretty tall even for a guy; 5'6" was about average -- so crescive!Richard is about 6'4" ;) )

Thank you for answering my random question! :D
