Hmm a strange girl, an odd bird, and sarsaparilla. Interesting. Off to read next chapter...
William attracts the weird. I think they see him as easy to take advantage of.

Oh and it seems the shop's motto is more important than I thought and so not normal. And we got a first glance at the Angelus, Darla and Dru.
Poor William - the forces of darkness are swirling all around.

i love this fic! I'm totally confused and I'm loving it. Can't wait for the next installment.
Oh no - I hope you're not confused by bad writing on my part. Let's just say that William has been distracted from his mother and his duty. Thanks for reviewing.

Curiouser and curiouser. There is obviously magic or fate at work, but you have me totally baffled. This is good.
I had to Google 'Kitty wampus', never having heard it before. What a lovely saying!

Never thought of goggling slang, that's good. :) The forces of darkness are circling around William - Dr. Gull, the mysterious deaths as on the show. Thought I'd pull the noose a little tighter. Thanks for reviewing.

You are doing one terrific job with this story - I am so very happy that you decided to try something with the William banner. This is turning out to be a lovely piece on William - you have him just as I imagine him - Love your new character and the fine descriptive tone you are setting -
All my Best Wishes to you for your Christmas Day - you have given us a fine prezzie with this new chapter.

Hmm, is there some demon aspect to Harrod's motto? Anxiously waiting to see how this pulls together. And I'm wondering about the sudden appearance of the American with her very interesting slang.
I'm pretty sure that Harrod's would have to have a Wish Demon on board to keep up with that motto. :)
In FFL, Dr. Gull gets mentioned by William, who as you probably know, was one of the suspects for the Jack the Ripper crimes. I've long thought that William was being surrounded by the forces of darkness - Dr. Gull, Cecily, who turns out to be Halfrek, Angel and his band roaming the streets around William's neighborhood and picking off victims, even bumping into him on the street. You have to feel sorry for him, he's so weak. The noose is tightening and he's oblivious to the great danger. Miss Merk actually might be a good Wish Demon.
I did look up a lot of American slang from the 1880's (it's amazing how much of it is still very common today), but then I thought that Joss always makes up his own, so I took a page out of his book. A little of it is real, most of it is made up.
Thanks for reviewing.
