Thank you for this delightful story!

This AU is soo easy to get into, great writing!

Eeeeee!

Hello Mrs Price, I know I am very late to the party and I hope you will see this message. Your story was one of the best I have ever read, and I have read a lot of them. B&E were great but most of all having a story with a linguistic setting was amazing! I am a linguist, I have a masters in linguistics studying the grammar of 4 dying if not dead now Australian Aboriginal languages. I cannot tell you how much your story touched me so I wanted to thank you from the bottom of my heart. All the best to you, Annie

All i can say is that i truelly loved this story!

This is a beautiful story! ️️️️️
When reading this it feels slow yet fast and nearing the end it makes me wanting more of it.

It’s killing me that she hasn’t building her courage to tell him yet

I was a little skeptical of the premise when I started the story, but my goodness, this is one of my favorites now. It's so tender and thoughtful, and it's got so many touches that make it feel like it's written by someone who's spent time on the Olympic Peninsula (which the original Twilight series did not). I love how so many different aspects of it fit together.

And funny thing, I've got a couple of linguists in my extended family, one of whom went to the University of Arizona, and the other is a field linguist who documents dying languages, and he's got some wild stories (not quite the Sentinelese, but still).

Another fun linguistic tidbit I've heard: apparently the British accent at the time of the American Revolution was close to the same one we have now. The Brits are the ones who diverged, trying to sound fancy. Founder Effect. So Carlisle would probably just sound American without trying.

The ice box thing is funny because my dad was born in the early 40s and I was homeschooled, so I picked up most of my speech patterns from my parents until I went to high school...where I got teased for saying "ice box". This was the 90s.

I haven't seen this premise before and I'm curious about how the dynamic will work out, as well as the practicalities. At this point it seems highly foreshadowed she'll get in trouble for her interest in him.

Such a wonderful story. Right when I think I have read all the good ones I find this! Soooo glad I did! I hope you are still out there writing somewhere!

I've just enjoyed a reread of this wonderful story. Thank you so much for sharing it with us.
