You're sooo right about the cop stuff. (LOL I bet your bro-in-law HATES CSI xD) This time everyones kind of just taking her word on her magic joojoo now. Even Dolph didn't give her shit this time around. Although I am glad that she spent less time throwing weights over her shoulder or benchpressing Toyotas or whatever she usually does to win her usual pissing contests..
I KNOW. JC and Asher breaks my heaaaart. JC sold like 100 years of service to Belle Morte so she wouldnt kill Asher... I cant see that kind of dedication just being thrown way.
Speaking of Belle Morte, I have some head-cannon that I really doubt the books ever went into (If they did and I somehow missed it, I apologize because I have puzzled this out over the last few years). Ive always kinda thought that Belle Morte sold them out to the Inquisitors because she knew they were leaving her. It makes perfect sense. She knew JC would be gone to visit his sick mother, she HATED Julianna and thought they were trying to replace her, and besides JC was her favorite. She also knew JC would come back to her needing help with Asher and she knew Asher would "never find someone to love him like she could" again, so she could mistreat him as much as she wanted.... As far as "good" villians go, my head-Belle has always been pretty bad ass.
Yeaaaaah you're totally dead on about how the LKH logic doesnt see how to men can have a happy relationship without a vagina in the middle. Although there WAS a new character this book... crap. he was a new cop. crap. hang on. -gets book.- Brice. He's on the force and very in the closet and he has a line.. KtD pg144 /"Put a girl in the middle, and its not gay, right?" Brice said, but he sounded more bitter than some theoretical discussion should be. "You fall afoul of some couple thing?" I asked. He glanced back down at his big hands. "You could say that."/
THERE IT IS AGAIN. HOPE. ;_;
Again right on the illogical magic "fixing" of characters. Dolf. Richard. Ronnie has been gone since DM at least. Haven got killed because LKH couldnt figure out what to do with a man who wouldnt fall in line... (We adopted Haven too. Another friend "rescued" him lol) And IMNSHO that new lion she brain-fucked into being her Bride kind of disgusts me. Nicky is everything she wanted Haven to be but couldnt make him. Although I did find it interesting that he killed off two lesser lions in his pack so they couldnt challenge him and told Anita about it. I dont remember what page..But she didnt have much of a reaction. something along the lines of "oh, I assumed you sent them to do mercenary work like the rats." -cue internal monolouge about how shes a cop first, and needs to keep seperate from the interests of the Rodere as much as possible.-
A Raina and Gabe roleplay sounds... really traumatizing actually. Especially if we're talking about the old Raina that could beat Anitas ass in metaphysics alone. I really wish the munin would come back.. I mean how is Anita gonna fight something thats a part of her? My Acheron friend played Gabriel for a minute too, actually. xDD Except we said Gabriel never actually got killed. He healed when she jabbed out his eyes and switched cities (to ours lol).
As fucked up as Gabriel was, I really felt like he was a good leader. Remember Cherry? I remember her saying something about how she was in a car accident before Gabriel infected her with lycanthropy, and had to have her leg amputated. So on the night of her first full moon, Gabriel sawed the scar tissue off and when she turned, viola, her leg was back.
I just don't see a "bad" leader going through that much trouble for someone he was just going to use and throw away.
