Quote: As with so many other things the Hood does, his deals tend to have additional consequences beyond the obvious. Often they're set up so that whatever the outcome the Hood benefits.
Quote: I'm not saying Chiaki would jump at the chance making a deal with him, but she won't say no based on his reputation alone. That would be Lara who would reject him based on reputation (and if you notice, the Hood forced one upon her anyway).
Ultimately, the Hood has a veneer of honour and nobility but he's also a bastard bad guy. He's not just being ironic when he calls himself an archvillain.
Quote:
Quote: It's good to know where they are in their romance [Liu Xi and Vinnie], which is really still at the trying-each-other-out phase, shy of commitment.
Quote: I guess the downside to that is Liu Xi is seeking a place where she's comfortable before the relationship moves forward. The risks to that are: If something goes wrong, she'll feel like she was right keeping her distance; and if that doesn't happen, and Vinnie gets restless and wants to move things along. Fortunately for her, the latter is less likely, because given his history, Vinnie seems to be grateful for what he's given.
Vinnie's very blase about some things, having been brought up with wealth, privilege, power, and an intimate association with the supernatural. Other things like affection, trust, and honesty are new and novel to him.
Quote: It could hurt Liu Xi badly in more ways than one. Her heart would be broken, and also if Vinnie sighs and walks away, she would feel like she failed, too - because she wanted so badly for Vinnie to feel like he deserves someone caring.
I keep meaning to do the De Soth family reunion story.
