Ugh, errors. That's "ugh" for me, not at you for noticing! I swear I read the damn thing backwards and forwards and everything in between. I really need to get *someone* to read things before I post them.
an insubstantial affair that would not last the week Love Cal! :D You can argue it's nothing to be ashamed of, but a series of meaningless sexual encounters isn't really something to be proud of either :P What was important here, I thought, was that both the matchmaker and Kat recognised the meaningless of the relationship, proving that Kat is insightful and the matchmaker is accurate.
I love that he's reading while he waits. :D Very Cal of him! :D Very much so! He needs to be occupied, talking or reading or *something*.
And though I enjoyed this style a lot I think I prefer your usual one. This style is very well suited for a short story but for a novel I think your usual one works better! Thank you! It was hard work to write and I'd be interested to know what you think is different, if it's possible to explain. For my part I think it doesn't flow as much as my usual stuff. It's a bit more…stilted? Static. IDK.
Riona wondered about meeting the matchmaker in canon and what Honor and canon!Kat would think about her. It's something I may write at some point. Even here though, Honor does not exist, but his brother becomes Kat's bodyguard, like their father before him – their bloodline is fated to be entangled with hers.
