On the first question, I was disapointed, yes, especially as I wanted Vlad shown up on his comment on Teldra that he appreciated her beauty without desire, esp. as it Vlad tells us in Taltos "she was beautiful even by human standards" (p.21, "Taltos", The Book of Taltos). 2nd, this brings back the "favorite line" thread, as I love the interaction between Vlad and Loiosh that if sleeping with Dragaerans is half like bestiality, then sleeping with a whore is like paying the..... As far as Mindless Sex is concerned, a) what's so bad about peace, love, and Mindless Sex? and b) I would say that most sex is fairly mindless, if it's any good. I also think sex with someone I love makes me feel better afterward. And if you *do* think that sex is mindful when there is love, and thus worthy of coolness, I submit, from page 246, hardcover edition: -there were bonds of love: Pathfinder loved Aliera, Iceflame loved Sethra, Blackwand loved Morrolan. And Lady Teldra loved me. respecfuly submitted; Andrew P.S.

This isn't a movie, where you have to have a male lead paired with a female lead and a mandatory sex scene right before the climax of the movie. We can have Cool Events and Big Explosions without Mindless Sex first. --
