I made them up, but I read up on nursery rhymes first, so they're not too implausible.
:) Thanks.
Any nitpicks you do find are gratefully received, but I've been through this a few times now, so I've picked up a lot of the obvious ones. Of course, commas and semicolons are a constant bugbear of mine ;) I stripped out a lot of stray semicolons when I was reading this through the other day.
Good pick. I was thinking about her life on the rooftops, but that doesn't fit if she's staring at the streets. Thanks :)
*grins* It's a common pet name for a child in his culture.
I adore Nimbus, even when he steals stories and generally drives me insane. He's such a joy to write, because he's a genuinely good guy under all the bravado and melodrama.
Thank you for the lovely comment :) I'm glad you enjoyed this - it's one of my favourites.
