...about the palm thing. In fact when I first wrote it it was because I simply didn't know that the word "palm" in English means only the inside part of a hand (the words palm and hand don't translate directly into Polish, or rather we have it a bit differently), and I simply wanted to avoid using the word "hand" twice. It was yet in the old times when we were posting alive, that is without consulting each other, long before Laura agreed to devote her life to edit my posts. When she told me about the true meaning later it was already posted and nothing could be done. Then, no one seemed to notice, and we somehow started to like the closeness between them. I guess we were quite thrilled by their every encounter and we simply liked the boldness in his tresspassing the limits.

Anyway, as we're re-editing the chapters now before posting them on HG, I've read it once again with the seed of doubt you already planted in my head, and I decided that it's indeed too much. There's no way she wouldn't blush and he wouldn't ravish her at once, so you're right, we cannot have it. I'll change it soon!

Thank you once again for your insight. It's been very helpful.
