Thank you. Characterization is one of the things that I find the most strange (and most difficult) about writing RPS -- that and how the concept of canon translates from FPS to RPS.
(I enjoyed your very unusual SB)
He's always struck me as a very passionate person, but one who isn't too terribly self-aware. Three failed marriages, after all.
if a bit schmoopy (OB)
I was kinda worried about the sap level, but after much editing and debating, it felt right at that level, so....
and I enjoyed Elijah's internal thoughts.
muse!Elijah lives in my head; despite how it sounds, this is not always a desirable situation. It is also why I write LotRiPS and why it all seems to be from Elijah's POV. *g*
Most notably, I don't care for Viggo in fics, and usually skim parts where he appears, but I didn't skim this one- I even enjoyed this Viggo, and that's about the second time ever
*g* I have a difficult time with Viggo. I'm mostly indifferent to him in stories, but it's frustrating when he crops up as a character in my own fic because I just don't feel like I've quite got a handle on him, characterization-wise. I'm glad you liked the way he turned out.
