Je pensais aux frais de mission et au remboursements de repas 😅.
Pour les crimes, j'imagine que ça fonctionne comme pour les avions, c'est la nationalité de la destination qui compte

S'ils partent de Cap Canaveral plutôt que de Kourou, ça change quelque chose ?

Churches built after this separation are properties of the church who build it (ND de Fourvière in Lyon is an example of it)

After the french revolution, the state became the owner of all religious building (including cathedrals). The law on 1905 (separation of Churches and state) re-enforced it. So N-D de Paris is a historical monument and the property of the french state. The Catholic church as only the right to use it.

Most European won't understand the reference

Reasons to vote for Toby, #7: I've mentioned foreshadowing. Well, what this has meant, on a practical level, is that I have spent the last two decades FULL OF SECRETS, patiently keeping them until they would matter the most. Vote Toby for my nerves.

Reasons to vote for Toby, #5: Toby herself. She's named after a girl I went to high school with, and watching her go from a scared private investigator to a hero of the realm is a true joy.

Reasons to vote for Toby, #6: The Luidaeg, a major recurring character, is based off a Scottish water spirit called "the luideag." I...typed it wrong, once, in 1997, and then my spell check got taught the error. Vote Toby to absolve me.

Reasons to vote for Toby, #4: The series has been going since 2009. You can watch me grow, mature, and figure my shit out as a writer, in semi-real time.

Reasons to vote for Toby, #2: I started this series to justify the time I spent in university, studying folklore. It has now been going five times as long as my college career. Vote Toby to justify the time spent on Toby.

Reasons to vote for Toby, #13: October could rival Batman for the way she acquires random teenagers and provides them with family, safety, and adults who listen.

Reasons to vote for Toby, #12: A central romance so slow-burn it caught ME by surprise, growing into something stable and strong, built on mutual respect, love, and leather trousers.

Reasons to vote for Toby, #11: There is so much short fiction. No, more than that. No, more. The series CAN be followed from just the books, but there's so much more if you go looking.

Reasons to vote for Toby, #10: Dianda. Just Dianda. A wheelchair-using, nose-breaking mermaid duchess who has better things to do than whatever bullshit she's been dragged into.

Reasons to vote for Toby, #9: A win makes it a lot more likely that I'll be allowed to keep going until we reach the ending in a smooth, organic way, rather than me trying to shove six books of plot into one to crash through the wall and get there.
