If Anita can call the dead, and heal the dead (remember when she used her own blood and the corpse came out of the ground looking totally alive? And if vampires are dead, and she can call them during the day (like she did with Damien to help her out of a jam) then why doesn't she heal Asher?
I read all the books in a three week span last year and noticed *a whole LOT* of continuity errors that bug me...

I thought about that - I thought about why JC doesn't just cut off his cross-shaped burn and grow new skin. Surely the same could work for Asher's scars. Vampire regeneration = teh orsum, after all said and done. It's set up in Guilty Pleasures that a bullet to the head won't kill a regular vampire, so...sooper dooper supermodel sex vampires should be able to re-prettify themselves.

But by the same token, I hope she doesn't heal Asher. I like that he's got scars (I hate his wangst, though) because he's the one guy of the lot that's A) got some individuality and B) is interesting. Sure, he's half an affeminate pretty-boy, but the other half is what makes him interesting.

I will never forgive LKH for prettifying Damian and fixing his broken nose and what-not. I liked that he wasn't perfect. Then again, given how much his characterisation has been so utterly neglected and trampled over, I shouldn't be surprised that potentially one of the more interesting people has been reduced to a cardboard cut-out.

After ID, I am convinced that Damian is not a character at all.

Damian is a SOCK PUPPET.

And it's tragic! HE COULD BE SO INCREDIBLY COOL!

...

Much could be said about a lot of things in the series right now. And it frustrates the hell out of me, because I can see all this potential, but it's just left to rot.

Oh well. Fanfic is my saviour.

Damian WAS cool when he first showed up and wasn't mooning over the One Crotch. :P Sadly now he's just a lifeless sock puppet. Or rather, dildo. :P

Knowing Jean-Claude, he's decided that since crosses are such a big fashion item now, he'll keep his burn mark to be all stylish. After all, it's the only way he can wear a cross... ;)
