Subject: 2. I think most concerts are meant to be parties- I couldn't believe that people were sitting at a GBS concert, are they not human? How do you do that when Alan says you need to get up and dance? :) 3. These two have an incredibly strong physical connection, Casey's exploiting that a wee bit here. Pamela came knowing what was likely to happen, but there are still unresolved feelings and anger too, and sometimes, even if the man is your husband and you're used to him and his ways, the feelings can overwhelm you and scare you a bit. That's what's going on with her here- and she'd like to hold onto her anger in some respects, but knows if Casey touches her it's all over.

  • Sorry I messed up my numbering above. That should be one and two above not two and three. 3. It's a level they both admit they can communicate on when words aren't working for them. Earlier in the book it says that it's their truth, their language, for words are not their kingdom. Not that Casey doesn't melt her with words occasionally too. It repairs things enough for him to go home and them to resume daily life together. And as Susie pointed out, it starts other things too. :) 4. No, not really, but she's still afraid for the big, dark stubborn man she married anyway. 5. Casey is a bit of a traditionalist and he's got a superstitious streak in him. At some point later he tells her (though it didn't make it into the 'Mermaid') that he wouldn't have asked her to live with him, if he didn't intend to marry her. It's not in his nature. They are both Catholic and though they really bend the rules there, at heart there are some things about which they are very tradtional. (NT) -- celtgirl, 13:20:36 10/24/07 Wed
  • I have a question, Cindy, which maybe you can answer. You describe Casey as having Hibernian charm, I suppose to mean Irish charm, but I'm a bit confused. In Jack Whyte's books the Hibernians are Scots, no mention of being Irish, even though the people immigrated from what is now Ireland to Caledonia, aka Scotland. Are Scotland's original inhabitants, excluding Picts, from Irish descent? Or is this just Jack (NT) -- Denise, 14:25:28 10/24/07 Wed
