White Lightning Productions

Spent the morning trying to figure out why my computer's memory had all gone away (still a mystery), then had an hour of panic when a post-reboot virus scan found a Java exploit... then calmed down when I realized I'd already deleted it unactivated and the virus scan found it in the Recycle Bin.

Anyway, Butch should thank her lucky stars, because Carla had her pen out and was about to add her name to the Shit List when a certain brute started pounding at the front door...

It's one thing to manipulate people into murdering each other for personal gain, but to be so horribly BAD at it?

Hm. Maybe she's more "Old-Fashioned" than may be expected, and she just jokes to a) cover it up, and b) not come off as a hypocrite, given her past. Which we still haven't explicitly pointed out.

The whole pack, really. Constantine Nero came in as a 'reformer', and Jack Goodwin's been hard at work to keep those reforms (elections to pack leadership over bloodsport.).

We haven't pointed this out in a while, but Walt's father was killed by Con Nero. And on the surface, he seems to be completely comfortable with this fact.

...

So Carla finds out Butch just tried to murder Sarah, and her response is to START GIVING HER ADVICE ON HOW TO DO A BETTER JOB AT IT NEXT TIME?

Hm. Mercy Thompson series is available on Overdrive Media Player as well... wonder if I should look into that one. The furthest I've dipped my toe in thus far has been Kim Harrison & Daniel Hecht.

All I'm reading here is BUTCH'S FAULT! BUTCH'S FAULT! BUTCH'S FAULT!!

What's Lee Stebbins then? Chopped liver? Is he just some natural disaster in human form? A tragic yet inevitable force of nature? A mindless pre-programmed killing machine? Yeah, maybe the last one, but still...

Actually, I suppose this is somewhat fair. We need to focus on discipline and reform for Butch because she's a character we actually care about. All I'm saying is, can we allocate maybe a little bit of annoyance for the cross carrying monster out there?
