1. Thanks for the birthday wishes, and for the paid LJ time. Wow, I'm kind of overwhelmed. : )

2. Yes, it is Asylum--thanks! zabira knew it too. You guys certainly know canon well.

3. I actually got pronunciation notes from the author today, and they were really helpful. I'm recording raggedass_road's Mosquito Field, AFQ, where there are lots of aviation terms. God, I love that story, and it's so much fun to record. *drools over Ray-as-pilot*

4. Hmm. I didn't know that was a consistent rule (about the silent "b" in "mb"), thanks for telling me. And about the "s" vs "z": yes, I probably tend to overcompensate the lack of "z"'s in Swedish and do too many of them in English.

Thanks again, and good luck with your drawing!
