But if they get together and its totally unbelieveable like a predictable romance novel it won't give the same effect as if maybe they just stayed friends and there was a hint of something more... and I know you're probably all thinking "NOOOO how can she say that?" But I am a fan of them getting together but if it's not done right and dosn't give everyone a tingly feeling inside the wait won't be worth it.

i totataly agree we dont want a corney love novel(though im sure it wouldnt be with alsion writing it :) but a hint or maybe it done right would be good.

Well if it ended up being just a hint in the last book we could all have a huge debate about it that just ends up going around in circles :D (Like the whole "do they love each other, do they not" thing)

Its a vicious circle!!!will it ever stop i think not we will go around in circles each telling our individual veiws cos even if there is a relationship some will think it right and some not.hmm peotry will do that to ya ive been reading it.

Yeah that's why I don't read poetry my tiny brain can't handle all the confusion of metaphorical sentences :D

lol, same here :D

Well if it ended up being just a hint in the last book we could all have a huge debate about it that just ends up going around in circles (Like the whole "do they love each other, do they not" thing) ahhh, i hate those sorts of endings, if possible i'd prefer a full list of any children (name, dates and ages etc etc), important events, future conquests and date of death with a lovely little quote like "And they lived happily to the end of their days when they both died within seconds of each other, having fufilled every last thing they ever wanted to do" would be nice.... seriously.
but seeing as i never get that :rolleyes: it's left up to my imagination, which is probably just a little more interesting :D. I prefer things to be throughly done, lol.

ooo i do love those tingly spine moments, when you giggle to yourself and have a huge grin on your face and everyone is wondering what you're finding so enjoyable. Though i'd still prefer a straight forward ending, it'd save us months (probably years) of saying
"YES, but look here on page 224, Cadvan says 'My, what a lovely display of cheese!' .... and Maerad says 'Yes i do love cheese', it's a clear indication of their undying love for one another! They're just too afraid to admit it, therefore the only way they can find to express their roaring lovesick emotions is through their playful banter about various cheeses!"
not that the prospect of such a thing isn't exciting or anything :D.

Though obviously Alison will be lynched if she busts out the violins, a cold raining night, your standard clingy-when-wet-white top for Maerad, some rippling biceps for Cadvan and the classic "OH i've always loved you!" line. :D

The imagination is a lovesome thing, god wot...

Gemini, once I work out what is going on, I promise it will be done THOROUGHLY. if it comes to that, pages and pages of genealogies, timelines of Important Events (&c&c&c). The only thing I can safely promise - even without the dire threats - is that my corn detector will ruthlessly edit out any clingy white shirts, rippling muscles, sappy lines and fading into cute shots of sunsets/rockets/flames. :D

(Dialogue about cheese? Hmmm....)
