Goodness, Zac’s doing better than me in the fact that he has someone to flirt with at all!

@seekjustice, well Zac still flirted better than I can. Which isn’t saying much because A. I don’t flirt, and B. I’m sure I would be terrible at it. But hey! At least Zac is better than someone

@rochellaine

Don’t blame Zac. It’s just that I’m really bad at flirting.

And yes, it would have been really interesting (except my sister. of course, lives in the same house as me, so I wouldn’t dare). Also, one of the cons I had written down for the point of killing Zac was: “He wouldn’t get to be with Neva”. ?????? Why would Zac want to be w…[Read more]

@rochellaine, yeah, I guess that is part of it. Probably the main reason I don’t ship them because it wasn’t til near the end of book two that I got the impression that Justice made the faith his own and not simply thinking believing in God was all that mattered.

Ooh, and I agree with what you said to @valtmy about the whole leader thing.

@valtmy

Justice is only one revolutionary leader out of a large number, even if that wasn’t necessarily made clear in the first draft. Also, the revolutionary group existed before Justice came along. He just took charge because he’s the bossy sort. And can you imagine Jonas leading a revolution?

That’s true. But I thought that would be too ob…[Read more]

@seekjustice

Instead of saving rich people, Justice could save those that were wrongly condemned.

Oh and I see you asked me to answer the questions that you have put at the end of WIIE. Do you want me to answer here or in the doc?

@seekjustice

Oh right another thing I forgot to mention. There was this part where Chessy was saying that Justice could get others to respect but not love him. That was true but something about it also confused me. There were other revolutionaries like Quillon and Jonas that seem mature so I was struggling to understand why they would go along…[Read more]

@valtmy

Fair enough. And yes, Enjolras is very much a noble character with a noble revolution, whereas Justice most definitely is not.

And yes, it would have been very interesting. I’m sure @rochellaine wishes I’d done it. 😀

haha… 😀 Can you imagine Justice saving rich people from the guillotine? 😛 Its not him.

@alia Okey dokey…[Read more]

@rochellaine, honestly, if a guy did that to me I’d find it pretty darn romantic, but like I said, there’s just something about those two. I don’t even know what it is, but for some reason I do not ship them. No clue why.

@seekjustice, aren’t we all? Confused by our own writings I mean.

Hey, maybe he was flirting with her in the same way she flirted with him was so that she wouldn’t like him like that. Yep, thats my theory and I’m sticking with it

@seekjustice

I like him as a character. I think what you’ve done with him is interesting. As a person though… I find him really cold and stiff in SFI. I don’t know what Chessy sees in him. I think it runs in the family. Chessy, Sapphire, Jean… they all seem to have really bad taste and judgment when it comes to relationships. I don’t think h…[Read more]

@alia Let me repeat! I wasn’t trying to get anyone to ship anyone through the window scene. Also I’m still confused by Justice’s attempts to flirt with Chessy because all attempts for anyone to flirt with him in the first book met with zero success.

The amount of things that confuse me about my own book confuses me.

@rochellaine

Well, Enjolras actually seems like a balanced mixture of no-nonsense, sense, briskness and actual…politeness. Justice lacks politeness. and sense. and basically everything other than revolutionary fervour.

In fairness, the original window scene was entirely a practical thing. A…[Read more]

@rochellaine, well I guess @seekjustice failed with getting me to ship them through the window scene, because I like them as friends and really hope Chessy gets over liking him and he gets over liking her because I really like them as friends, but not as a couple. I don’t know, its just something about them together doesn’t appeal to me

@valtmy

Your opinions on Justice? Did you like him or not?

(Did anyone like Justice excepting my sister?)

@rochellaine, wait, he didn’t? Never mind, ignore what I said then I thought he did and that annoyed me, but if it was all what other people saw then it makes sense and is fine.

(but I still didn’t like him as a person, that I know)

@seekjustice @rochellaine @alia

Hey guys. I’m here now.

Ooh a discussion on SFI which I can actually participate in now…

@rochellaine @alia

Oooh, I love conflicting opinions! 😛

Personally, I believe he was too emotionless in the first book and waaay too angsty in the second. Neither side of Justice quite captures the glory of Enjolras, which was what I was going for.

@rochellaine, I agree with you on the most part, but I just didn’t feel much realisticness from him in his own POV
