PLEASE DISCUSS! - No Spoilers - Only Speculation - RH S3

For several weeks now, the possible background of the Gisborne kids, especially Isabella’s, has been bouncing around in my mind - brain cells pinging about like a bad Pachinko game. (No, not fun. And ( Read more... )

See, I told you I'd read it ( ... )

Yeah! I'm so glad you did, as I'd love to know your thoughts, especially after your write up on the scene in ep. 8 ( ... )

I had always gone with the presumption that Guy was simply working for him for wealth and power and biding his time, moving up the social ladder. I had never snapped to the possiblity of "you've given me money, so you must like me."

On one, yes I think mostly he wanted the position being with Vasey offered, but it seems a little more complex than that, at least the different side are tangled about each other in that his things/position/gifts=respect/affection issues. The more I think about this the more sad it becomes for poor emotionally stunted Guy.

Yeah, clearly everyone does! Hence more and more Guy/Marian fic being written every week to fill the void. I've been thinking about this and the 1 1/4 year gap between series, and how the fans took control themselves. I swear, Richard and Lucy could have been employed for the next 10-15 years alone, simply shooting all the best of all the fic!

And what does it say, really, when the majority of a fandom collectively says, "You screwed us. We don't accept it. You've taken our characters and their stories and done stupid things ( ... )
