Epoque Ch. 4

[Silktie]

Wow, that was seriously good! I like that you had Harry tell her that she might sometimes have to give him some pointers about what she liked. For me it fits in with how Harry sees himself, as he has twice used the word "limitations" when talking about himself to Ruth. I think he does truly believe that he is emotionally stunted.

And I liked Ruth's reaction to believing that Harry only saw her for her intellect. The thing is, if you have such a huge talent, you run the risk of becoming defined by only that talent, and people see you only for that talent and not as a real person. So it made sense to me that Ruth would feel that people only saw her intellect, and not the woman behind it.

I for one am sad that you won't attempt another romance story, since this one was so lovely.
