I love Sophie's perspective as she sets the bait for Humperdinck. It's so calculated, finely calibrated, and he just falls for it like so many marks before him. I'd feel sorry for the bastard if he weren't, you know, a bastard ;-)

And your description of Buttercup suddenly waking up from her walking fugue state is great.

I was a bit puzzled by this bit, though:

Hardison was willing to bet that if Westley weren’t currently crippled

Did I miss something? What happened to him?

I'm way behind with my reading, so I'm off to the next chapter now :)

Just that he'd broken his leg. The idea of him pacing back and forth with his crutches was kind of ridiculous in my head, I couldn't see him doing it.

I'm enjoying writing Sophie's craft; I kind of picture it like the back-and-forth of physical action of the other two, only it's psychological. And yeah, I don't feel sorry for him at all, either :D
