I didn't much care for this one. It was decent enough in theme and plot - but I just couldn't get into it. The boy and the girl (Emma) were both pretty flat. Once the girl launched in to the typical, willful, impish girl schtick I found myself rolling my eyes. I have no idea if the cliche has a name, but the "wild girl" who comes to help a despondant young boy and simply won't take "no" for an answer is pretty overused. From "The Scarlet Letter" to "Interview with a Vampire" she's been everywhere. Especially the lines "stupid boy tee-hee!" Ugh. I felt like I'd heard it a thousand times before. In stories like this, the "fae" girl who seems so wild and free usually turns out to have serious problems of her own - and this story was no exception. The concept might have been woven together well, but the characters were certainly miles and miles away from original - or even interesting.
The reading also felt a little rushed in some places. Other times, I felt it had the wrong inflection for the line.
Not one of the best stories here.
