I'm still angry for you about this trip cancellation. :( What were their exact justifications for cancelling it?
Some little things I find quite funny about how words grew to have different meanings in French and English. "Raisin", as many know, means, in French, "grape". Most people don't know that "grappe" in French means a bunch of grapes.
Also, in French, a "photographe" is a "photographer", not the image itself, which is simple called... "un photo". ;)
I can see Temeraire helping the crew because Laurence wants him to and it makes Laurence happy, and only later growing more attached to Riley and the others. Especially once they stop flinching away from the dragon.
"I do think dragons go by fighting merit and/or wisdom over "biggest" and "male"." I totally think so as well. Later on, I think Temeraire comments on this as well. :)
I KNOW, RIGHT??? I <3 ISKIERKA. That's the question I was going to ask: how does Iskierka react to having a rival firebreather around?
