[draft] DSKSWDYHMS? - Chapter 3
 
#3
Quote:"Between your beauty and your position in our family, everyone with a Y-chromosome practically grovels at your feet and you, my daughter, have grown too soft and complacent! It's about time someone threw something other than flowers at your feet." -- The repetition of "at your feet" makes this sound clumsy; I suggest changing the second instance to just "at you".
On the other hand, Mister Invader is portrayed in canon as both intelligent and apparently less-than-polished at social interaction. He may be speaking clumsily on purpose, to get the humans to underestimate him.

I agree on the other points Bob raised. (Oh, yes - http://www.karmakula.co.uk/index.php?ac ... oductId=83]here's a lei line.)

them. Adversaries remain citizens of the same state, common subjects of
the same sovereign, servants of the same law."
