actually, i feel like he did give her a royal chewing out. it just wasn't one that involved yelling, because i think its been well proven that Aedan doesn't listen when she gets yelled at. he simply made sure to express his feelings in a way that he was sure would be given all due attention.

i honestly believe that Lillian is the only one who can bend Death to her will. she's always come across in the books to me as a force to be reckoned with. and Edward is smart enough to know when to pick his battles

including the bit with Donna was last minute. i kind of like how it came out. how it really gives us a chance to see a more human side of Edward. which i feel is so important to showcase because there's such a build up around the idea of him being this super badass bounty hunter/assassin that thinks its fun to go after shit that doesn't want to die. so it really feels like a good addition and the perfect place for it.

yes. the end is nigh. i don't know what i'll do with myself when that happens...

glad you enjoyed, bb. thanks for reading and commenting.
