I'm sure it does happen, providing it's pre-entanglement. Once you officially become a posie, you're bound to that degas until death - Hildegarde's going to think of it as a ...

Thanks ever so much! I completely take your point about Vie and Gaiv. There are personality-driven reasons that they're both behaving as they are, but I can see why that ...

Thanks, Blue! Re: Daisy's backstory, I'm not sure how much you want to know, but I'll put some stuff in a spoiler about it... The backstory from the notes is ...

That's great! Kudos for even trying to tackle omniscience - I don't even know where I'd begin with that. I'm sure you'll get to grips with it, and that will ...

Thanks, Mea! Really useful points as always. I'll tweak the scene transitions and definitely change how she notices the disappearance of the sick - I did think about her noticing ...

Thanks for this! It's really useful. I'm kicking myself for getting rid of the line that made it explicit that Hildegarde was sick, but I'll be sure to slot it ...

I'm glad you like him! I take your point about the removal of suspense, though, so I'll try to tackle that problem ASAP. But on balance, thinking about the rest ...

Thanks so much! My thinking was basically that Paris's phone call with the guy was actually scheduled for half 12, meaning he couldn't pick Hildegarde up himself - he's not ...

Basically, the Matreaus want Paris to get a posie quickly. He's been unsuccessful in finding a way to revive Kesecmatreau so far, and one of the main reasons for that ...

THANK YOU!! Also, in regards to them having a driver, I completely realised that myself when I was like halfway into the chapter. So I'm just going to go with ...

I'm so glad you liked it!!!! I really wanted to nail Paris's introduction. His character has changed around a lot in my head - the awkwardness only occurred to me ...

Thanks so much! I completely get what you mean about Hildegarde - it's hard to get the balance between her being confidently snarky, being snarky as a stress response and ...

Thanks so much! Don't worry, I haven't talked about their background yet at all - there's a brief allusion to it in the next chapter, but it's generally something that's ...
