I think this may be one of the best fics I've ever received. Hands-down.

Rhisiart's voice is just delightful -- I love that wonderful mix of royal command and mechanical distnace. And I adore how he starts to slip in those scenes with Anne; how you blur the line between automaton and human.

And, oh, my goodness, GREEN. He is positively terrifying! Just as a proper villain ought to be.

All the bits in the play that just don't fit make SO much sense in this universe. I just can't get over how utterly AMAZING this is.
