Why this must be read:

This a very sweet story about future linguistics, and about Tosh being both awesome at what she does and just generally awesome.

Excerpt: She is not a linguist by trade or by training, but she is persistent, and when you break it down enough, language is only a series of patterns. Everything is a series of patterns; the whole universe is patterns. Toshiko has always prided herself on being good with patterns (except, she thinks, when it comes to relationships; and even then it is the pattern that is flawed, not her observance of it).
