I understand why, and I'm okay with it, personally. Plus, you gotta deal with reality, as in life and death situations. And, of course, heightening the tension in the story is crucial. <br /><br />I would say, the self-defense aspect didn't come through. <br /><br />Also, my character has to remain true to herself, as well. You notice she didn't go after Sergei, even though she could have. <br />Savanna Kougarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15698138048388102279noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6498899580300269250.post-68230156230262653422013-04-23T18:35:32.209-05:002013-04-23T18:35:32.209-05:00Maybe I just won't hurt any more animals in my...Maybe I just won't hurt any more animals in my flashes from now on.

Seriously, I...Can I step on ants? Is that okay?<br /><br />Seriously, I'm not into animal cruelty. Like I said in my comment on yesterday's post, I'm trying to set up tension and establish character. Grizzly bears have a rep for being badass. What better way to present Sergei as a threat than to have him take out a maddened grizzly with no weapons?<br /><br />Vesuvius isn't a shifter. He's an aging, bad-tempered bear. If he'd been a shifter and tried this, Sergei just would have roughed him up and told him to go home. He tried to avoid the bear, but it just kept coming and wouldn't let up. He killed it in self-defense. Or thought he did. Guess we'll find out next week.Pat C.https://www.blogger.com/profile/10531462055912377327noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6498899580300269250.post-2059233236909679462013-04-23T14:11:42.651-05:002013-04-23T14:11:42.651-05:00She doesn't like the sight of death, unless pa...She doesn't like the sight of death, unless passing on relieves suffering, or the soul-being is moving on. Since Vesuvius isn't ready to leave the land of the living for the next land of the living, she wants to help him.
