Hehe, did you let your crush on Swallow, and inner Swallow/Elf shipper out when you wrote this? It's very S/E-y. :P
And the word beastly makes me giggle for some reason. Not sure why, it's a hilarious word. Makes me think of the Famous Five books. :D

Why don't you ff.net this? I'd review it for you. :D (I'm one of the only people handing out reviews over there...)
