Journal for Swallow...

Nov 17, 2008 12:17

I figured my journal has been shamefully neglected, so I decided to post an entry. :) There's not much going on with me at the moment - still trying to finish uni - but here's a journal entry I wrote for Swallow when I couldn't get my head around my uni work. :) It's meant to be a bit of fun, not serious, in case that's not clear. :P ( Read more... )

Mooning over Swallow is rather fun, isn't it? =D And I want to go and reread the Ober books now as well! =P

Hehe, did you let your crush on Swallow, and inner Swallow/Elf shipper out when you wrote this? It's very S/E-y. :P
And the word beastly makes me giggle for some reason. Not sure why, it's a hilarious word. Makes me think of the Famous Five books. :D

Why don't you ff.net this? I'd review it for you. :D (I'm one of the only people handing out reviews over there...)

Hehe, I used beastly on purpose - it amuses me as well. =P And thanks for the suggestion - I think I will ff.net it. =D ( ... )

hehe, I wasn't criticising its canon-ness, I find it very plausible. I think Swallow would have been a bit of a Lothario back then bfore his dad kicked it. :D
I did think the language was a bit...serious for Swallow at that time. But maybe that's just me. :D
Heheh, I loved that bit with Louis. As muhc as I loved the bit with Merret and Gilbert. Finally Elkf is being called out on her skanking around. :P

I'm glad you agree that the idea is plausible - I didn't really think you meant that it wasn't, but I was a little concerned that someone might see it that way, so my defense mechanism took over. =P

And I absolutely agree on the Lothario thing - some of his comments certainly support that theory! ;)

And you're probably right about the language being a bit serious, although I was trying to keep it PG, so I didn't want to have him think anything too risque, plus I was trying to keep it within the realms of how they speak in the Oberverse... =P

And I agree on the bit with Louis, and the bit with Merret and Gilbert - and I love how she went all quiet and distracted when Louis made the implication - nothing like looking sus! Hehe. And she didn't say anything to Merret, either! =P
