Oh definitely an unforgettable way to introduce JT. It would catch your attention and I remember how different and common (or unrefined) his dialect was in this scene. I loved to hear it. So different from later speaking in the series. Also, so far away from his intro in the book.

I know that feeling…it’s a shame when you read about your dream job (that you didn’t even know existed) just when you’re in your last year at university, studying something else entirely…
about Armitag Words – do you also consider wishes (take prompts, requests, whatever…) for scenes to consider? 😉

The idea of an office where no one ever calls you is really heavenly. 🙂
Sure, I’ll take a prompt. A lot of times these are based on my mood at the moment at which I am doing them, though.
