I <3 Delgago!Master. :D

[lost_spook]

Aw, thanks. :-) Me, too!

I like this Jo! She's a badass.

[lost_spook]

Thanks! After all, she'd already threatened him with nursery rhymes, so... ;-)

Delgado!Master would read Depressing Russian Literature. And believe Raskolnikov to be completely in the right (and probably weak-minded for giving in to conventional morals, hah). Besides, he's probably read it already - he seems too aware of the irony not to have (seriously, there was no other reason he was reading War of the Worlds in Frontier in Space than the fact that the title tickled him).

This was a fun read. No, Miss Grant, obviously he's not so easily cowed, he just has vastly superior taste in literature... :P

[lost_spook]

Oh, yes. And of course he tried C&P, he just thought Raskolnikov was far too weak and moral all the way through, and wondered at a human coming up with a concept that only really fitted him anyway, and of course disagreed violently with the ending. He wrote a letter about it to the Times while he was in prison. The editor declined to publish it. (I love that he likes reading books in Frontier - given that and Jo's nursery rhymes, you can see where this story comes from).

And, er, thank you, I mean. :-)

Good one! I could totally hear Jo's voice in my head.

[lost_spook]

Aw, thanks! :-)
