Detatched, yes, I can see that. I think it's partly the outsider POV, and partly Au!Kat who is a little dispirited here compared to canon, and partly trying to write in a way that feels alien to me!
I prefer the more dynamic approach, although you're always having to tell me to slow down and show the readers things! Let them see those intimate moments, let them attend the feast rather than just hear it summarised by a character :D That's how the novel is getting much longer. I'm trying to flesh out the adapted characters and world and build the relationships up further.
But still in a dynamic way, without getting bogged down by wondering about every adverb or "thought/felt" phrase! That's what is different here. I think in editing it to someone else's standards I killed all the flow and spontaneity.
