* trademarks and truth.
What would you say are the trademarks of my writing? What themes or quirks or turns of phrase have you noticed? What is it that makes a story by me -- well, a story by me?

AND

Certain characters of mine have been dosed with a potion that makes them tell only the truth. Ask them any question that you want, and he or she will answer truthfully!

I love how your characters always use a lot of vernacular. (I probably used that wrong didn't I? Meh.) And I love how you always include their little mumblings, ums and uhs and yannos, that kinda thing. It makes them more realistic, makes it easier for me to hear them in my head. You always depict their emotions so perfectly, I can really see their expressions (especially when they're excited or crazy turned-on) in my head. I love your characterizations, they're always so wonderful and realistic.

Hook: Why are you so interested in Wendy? (Peter is particularly curious about this one.)

Marlowe: What was your honest first impression of Laura? How does it compare with how you see her now?

me: oh yay! thank you. i generally see their expressions and emotions in my head, so i'm glad that translates. thank you bebe.

Hook: At first because she was interested in me. To find a pretty girl looking at you instead of the beautiful works of art surrounding her... it's intriguing. I enjoy admirers. I collect them. And now I find that that admirer is also connected to someone who I've taken a very fierce dislike to and it only makes me want her more. She will be mine, and she will be mine first.

Marlowe: Irritating. She was irritating and prying and slightly rude for speaking to me when I'd never initiated a conversation with her before. It was a bit presumptive of her and it put me off at first. She grows on a person, though. What I first thought of as irritating became endearing. I'm not really one for honesty and openness, but I do understand curiosity and going after things that you want. I think in a way she was a good fit for me in the same way that Shakespeare is. I do regret getting her involved in things and putting her in danger. I find I care for her quite a lot now.

	Marlowe makes me laugh. She has to wait for him to initiate the conversation? Cuuuuute. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He's so pompous and cute. It just makes me go, "Oh Marlowe." Except if it was me, I'd be totally afraid to talk to Marlowe. Laura just has no boundaries. Sigh. (Reply to this)(Parent)
