Thank you very much for your feedback, you're very kind, and I'm relieved to hear it doesn't lose the reader despite its length!
I do hope it remains a novella, and does not become a novel. I didn't intend to make it so long, but I am having a lot of fun with it. Grumpy, stubborn mage meets aloof, vexing spy; I don't get tired of that combo very easily!
It's on Fanfiction dot net under the same title. Sorry, I don't have an account with Archive of Our Own. Despite reading stories there, I'm terribly lazy =p
I'm honestly relieved anyone found this, all the way back on page 4. I thought my first fill would never see the light of day.
Oh lordy, research. I'm obsessed with researching things, to the point of ridiculousness. Most of what I know came from me going, "Wait, what? Is that true? To the internets!!!" as I read other stories. I've heard it said a lot of writers dread someone looking at their search history, which is absolutely true for me. Just looking at the history of words I type into the thesaurus alone makes me facepalm, knowing it anyone ever sees that, they will give me some decidedly peculiar looks.

Well, back to Chapter 13.
