o hai!

I... really don't have a problem with late edits. I truly don't. I mean, the piece is the same whenever somebody gets to it... but yeah, if I was any more laid-back, I'd be dead. Or failing out of school. Or both.

Better the saltshaker than the pepper spray, yes? :D

I need to go find Alfie. He sounds utterly charming. XD

I think this is just you having a whole lot of fun. - It's true what they say, that the truth has a way of coming out. XD

I have a weirdly compulsive thing about refusing to repeat speaky verbs
(technical term)... which I should smother, because you're absolutely right. I've sort of been noticing that lately, and thank you for nudging me about it. XD

YOU AND YOUR ADVERBS. No. They're my filler; it's true. XD

Thanks again! :D

These are all REALLY good suggestions -- I definitely do tend to get lost in my sentences a lot, and all the places you pointed me to are problem areas. So thank you so much for that! :D

I'm also really glad you appreciated the humor -- Vincent is among my zaniest characters, which I sometimes worry may get a little out of hand. XD

And oh, thank you! :) Dialogue, particularly funny dialogue, is... what I do! XD It's pretty much my favorite thing about writing in the first place, and hearing that it's working well is just fantastic. :D

Thanks! :D
