The Rescue  by Lindelea 3 Review(s)

Yesterday as I tried to respond to this chapter the modem lost communication with its connection. Love the title, of course, and love the ruse intended to keep them safe as they traverse the woods. Ferdi's inventiveness and care are so well described!

Author Reply: Naughty modem. Technical difficulties abound. However, at the moment things are working, and so I will keep posting (and hoping others do the same...)

Thank you for the words of encouragement!

Ooh, you're doing a great job of building the tension in this. I'm getting more and more nervous for them. I love the belt and suspenders (braces) comments. I'm a person who kind of tends to do things that same way and appreciate it in Ferdi.

Looking forward, nervously, for the next chapter.

Author Reply: Oh, thank you very much for the "braces" reminder! That's the word I usually use but it just slipped my mind when I was working on this chapter.

Thanks, too for the good words!

One must have many disguises and schemes when playing this game and trust Ferdi to be prepared.

‘But the shrooms buy us safety, or at least, suspenders,’ Estella said bravely.

Ferdi’s smile broadened in approval. ‘At the very least,’ he said.

Loved the picture you gave. Hope they won't run into any ruffians along the way.

Author Reply: Yes, y'know, Ferdi could be a kind of Scarlet Pimpernel type, at least so far as his deviousness. Never quite thought of it that way before, but as his face is known to the ruffians it would make sense that he'd need to disguise himself when he walks openly outside of the Tookland.

Thanks!
