Awww, I sort of love Ani. I'm afraid that Sorin is going to get into trouble with Vlad for helping, though. Not that I think Vlad thinks helping is a bad idea, but just that he seems a bit controlling. Good job!

Everyone should love Ani :) She's got a bit of a bum job but adores both her brothers pretty much wholeheartedly. Sorin does get a lecture, but he doesn't particularly care. Vlad is very controlling, something that comes directly from his father! Thanks for reading!

little did Sorin know that the little girl he helped would one day grow up to give him grandchildren mwahahaha

I still love Ani. She is my very favorite ever. Also, Sorin calling Vlad "Vladimir" and doing his best to be a good brother. Not Vlad. He needs to go very far away for that comment about "manly things."

[niee87]

ahaha, no, he had no idea and I'm sure it never occurs to him either (as he's long forgotten this one particular episode) unless Eva takes it upon herself to remind him.

Ani is amazing! Vlad is Vlad *sighs and pats him despite perhaps better judgment* I feel for him. Sorin always calls him Vlad during NIEE.

There are contrasting views but it's really not hard to side with any of them. Even Vlad, who is the least agreeable of the piece, makes sense from time to time-- although what he said about the woman and her little girl in trouble was somewhat callous. Still, his reasoning for it was sound, rather than "I'm just evil cacklecackle", which happens too much in fiction. XD

I absolutely loved this line:
“Hmm?” she asked, distracted out of a daydream in which she was getting to kiss Ren...a lot.

Ani is awesome. :D

Yeah, they all do make sense, which is actually why they do a decent job running the country during the time they're in charge. Yeah, Vlad is a little callous - that's a really good word for it. He's a little too involved in the 'big stuff'. Haha, no, Vlad does have reasoning behind his evilness :P

Aw, I enjoyed that one too! Ani's thought processes are sometimes deceptively simple :P And she is!

Thanks for reading!

This was really good! I like how they all make valid points in a way. They're not in an easy situation. Glad Sorin is at least going to help a few people this time :)

[niee87]

Thanks :D They definitely all see the world from a different but not necessarily always wrong way. Sorin tries hard very quietly :P

Thanks for reading!
