I found the following in an old e-mail I sent out. I was explaining to someone that the afterword to /Five Hundred Years After/ was Paarfi & Brust rather than Paarfi & Vlad, and I then commented that other combinations might be amusing to read as well: ] Brust and Vlad could get nasty real fast (or they might find they ] get along just fine because they'd gossip about how silly Paarfi can ] be). Or how about a 3-cornered interview/brawl - Vlad, Paarfi and ] Brust, all switching sides and ganging up on the odd one out? Although perhaps we should bring in Sethra Lavode, and/or Morrolan, and/or Aliera instead. Or in addition! Loads of fun possibilities. And you know, once Aliera got done dueling with (and killing (and revivifying)) Paarfi, I've a suspicion that Morrolan would step up and want to take *his* turn (considering some of the slighting remarks that Paarfi has made in his current work). Poor Paarfi. Just can't keep those snarky comments from creeping into his manuscript...
