You are obviously a fan, as am I. I, too, hit that "Alt" button when I read it, and it was 3 am, I could not sleep, and isn't that the perfect time to read her? So what better time to write in her style? Yes, the "mouse-squeak of bravery" IS what it takes, and you make it sound as though the person standing in the cage probably has lots to say, but keeps it hidden; whereas; the person who lives "outside" needs that one squeak and makes the most of it. Better to speak that to squelch, huh? BRILL!
