WHOAAAA~~~~. You're right, you ARE the queen of long comments. xD But dun worry, I understand, I leave long reviews and comments ALLLL the time.
Yayayayayay! I got it right? -dances- ^^ I guess I just have an easy time of reading into things, I suppose. But really, it was just THAT good. It's not like any of it was obvious...it's definitely a picture you have to think about, so good job with that.
Yup, I'm pretty sure you spelled that right. I remember that was a term a couple of chapters ago in my history class, when we were learning about...um, what was that chapter? Dang. Either way, Italian unification was in there, and it was, indeed, "Risorgimento." Cool word.
xD Sorry if I scared you with the spot-onness, and yes, let's REALLY hope the tear doesn't stray...but we all know it will.
Reward? O.O Ummm...I'll keep that in mind, yeah. You don't have to...
Grazie~~~!
