Love that you are posting so quickly, and so many updates. You have the style and wordplay completely perfect
I know I'm not alone in guessing who the respective characters are supposed to represent, and we are probably all convinced that the Earl is Lex and that Cedric is Clark.
Cannot wait for Lavinia and Cedric to have a reasonable amount of time to talk ... and then I'm sure that she will notice ... things.
Thanks and keep up with the posting.
