RATING/WARNING(S): G / No warnings
WORD COUNT: 2869 words
MAIN CHARACTERS: Darrell Rivers, Gwendoline Mary Lacey
FIC SUMMARY: In Cornwall on business, Darrell Rivers is less than thrilled to run into Gwendoline Mary - for more reasons than one.
RECCER'S NOTES: I love so many things about this fic. It feels real, both in the sense that it seems like a conversation these two women could actually have in later years, and in the sense that the author uses turns of phrase that pleasantly echo Blyton's style. (Like⦠can we have fanfic writers redo those terrible published sequels? Please?).
Anyway, it's fic like this that makes me so happy that Enid Blyton fanfic exists <3 Both girls have grown in maturity and wisdom since their school days, and their conversation feels so natural and right. There are a lot of little touches throughout that really makes it feel like part of the series and, gah, I just love it.
