    omg I am seriously in love with this fic. I cannot stop laughing. stiles is priceless!! and I think derek maybe has a crush, as well. can't wait to find out! all of the characters are very funny, actually... I'd love to quote all the parts that made me lol, but I'd run out of space \o/

    just a sidenote: I've noticed quite a few British-isms throughout the story. use of fortnight, pressups, see you stateside, and "made a tit of himself" which are not really used in American English. while they certainly don't change how much I adore this fic... coz I really really do! ... they do take me out of the moment a bit, esp when it's part of dialogue because stiles or derek would never say those things in that way. I used to do Americanization editing work when I lived in London, so maybe I'm extra attuned to it :)

    looking forward to ch 4!! <3

      Ooh, thank you! Haha, I'm glad you like it :)

      Thanks very much for pointing those out - I'm awful at picking out British-isms. I tried to avoid them in dialogue but I guess I missed a few, haha. I've changed them now, so thanks for that, because I wouldn't have picked up on them!

      Thanks again! :D :D
