Fabulous! I love this look into Bob's mind and what his possible motivation was for making Elle the way she his and how he did so. So dark and fascinating.

Thank you! For some reason my character studies always turn out dark, but it's the show, I swear! It gives me so much material for eeevil purposes! Thanks for reading.

Well shucks *blushes* The little character studies I did for LAS were a change from my usual thing, so I'm glad this one worked out. I think Bob's a really fascinating guy, just because he's so casually creepy. Thanks for commenting!

I thoroughly enjoyed this. Excellent delving into Bob's character and motivations for what he possibly did to Elle. I especially love the bit where he's having the Haitian pick and choose her memories. Twisted and angsty and oh so believable.

Thank you! The memory-choosing scene was actually the first part of this that I wrote, and the rest of the story fell into place after that. The show itself is so full of angst, it just gives me all kinds of crazy ideas. Thanks for the comment!

P.S. Love the webcomic icon!

[brighteyed_jill]

Thank you! They're both very fun characters to write-- lots of angst that hasn't been explored yet!

*happy sounds* There needs to be more fiction like this. Bob is so creepy, as Bob is, and Elle is so tortured and victimized. Its brilliant.

[brighteyed_jill]

Well thankee. Yes, Bob is a creepy, creepy man. I love both of them. Thanks for commenting!
