Ha! It was me who commented on that. In fact, when you said that, I remembered how much I liked it and went back to re-read. Still amazing. Also, I hadn't realized how much fic you'd written for Eleven/River--very impressive indeed :)

Yeah, I am really into languages and linguistics. My B.A. is in Spanish, but I've also studied German, Russian, French, and a tiny bit of Latin, as well as linguistics as a whole. I wouldn't consider myself an expert in anything, but I'm pretty familiar with different tenses, and it warms my heart when I encounter things like that.

On a related note, I have a tiny bit of concrit/suggestion in regards to formatting. If you want to hear it, let me know. If not, that's okay too. :)
