Subject: Great discussion...and I am sorry that I am coming in late. Simply put, Jamie sounds more hostile because he is more hostile. We are reading the events of a timeframe not previously put to paper for us. In Voyager, James is quite ready to truly wring John's neck, as he first leaves Jamie at Helwater. Next, we see James being bedeviled by Geneva as he is shoveling manure...(and uttering one of my favorite lines, "I am spreading shit, my lady"). Clearly, much has happened in between. Now, we get to read about it! What a treat! I do not believe the point of view is much of an issue here.
In reply to: tlk2vicki 's message, "Another interesting discussion down the page about the difference in tone and attitude between John and Jamie in Voyager and BOTB. It was running off the screen, so I thought I'd add my remarks up here. I wonder if Jamie sounds more hostile in BOTB because this is written from Lord John's point of view? Voyager was written from Jamie's POV, wouldn't you say? We all perceive specific events quite differently based on our individual history and emotions." on 06:15:26 09/10/07 Mon
