Haha! I love this series…

so many great phrases you used its hard to say which was best. conspiratorially,simpered with false pretenses, pleading vulnerability, unsuspecting respectable women…you packed a lot of great sentences here in so small a space, one of youe best so far.

Nicely written.

Excellent, excellent. Tomlin will be so relieved she played along.

Playing along for now anyways…

I stepped into the middle of this series, but I love the phrase “quirking an eyebrow …”

i love the descriptions here!! i definitely agree with kermitgorf. lovely job.

I love how the Countess quietly told August off. Right on, girl!
