I definitely know it's not for everyone.  Lehrmann has a very distinct and over the top style that can be really offputting.  And, of course, considering it's in the original prose, if you're not paying attention to it, you probably don't know exactly what they're saying.  10 Things I Hate About You was kind of fun, it's not the worst movie to watch for a class, but it's too datedly 90s for me to really want to go back to it for fun.

Goodness, look at how pretentious and intellectual and artsy I can get if I'm allowed to.  This is definitely what studying theater for six years gets you. 

Yeah I noticed Simone's picture was gone, I wasn't sure if that was just on my end or not.

Thank you.  It feels so much better to me now, it makes more sense and I think it makes her motivation much more solid.

I'm starting to figure out specifics, like this great cute detail of Jonathan and Eleanora's courtship, their roles in blending into at least the fringes of society, and while I still don't know much about Bela, I finally know one thing, and I think it could prove telling.  I did start adding their place in the clan to their bios, along with a few new details here and there, like in Jonathan's.
