Doesn't Ludovico make several references to Nicholas' sex life too? As if he is sexually repressed or into something a holy man shouldn't be into. I get the heebee geebees from the guy! -- Shamrocks & Stones

In reply to: E 's message, "1) Carlotta's the queen. Her people don't have to love her to be loyal to her. If she is harmed, their lives are over. It's in their own interest to keep her safe. One of them could have given Carlotta up for ransom, and none did. (2) Nicholas is gallant enough to help when someone is in peril, but in this situation I think he wants to feel something, anything. To find a purpose again, even if only temporarily. (3) Nicholas is in despair. It may have been a marriage of convenience but he did love Marian, and she was his anchor. He is directionless now, a ship without a rudder. (4) Ludovico is not an honorable man, at least not to me, and whenever he appears, it seems to precede some change in Nicholas. Ludovico has always recognized Nicholas' exceptional capabilities, and knows that adventure will always await him when in Nicholas' company. Always hated that line where Ludovico tells the serving girl to kneel before him - ick." on 18:41:16 03/04/12 Sun

He's just jealous because our Nicholas is such a hot property. ;) (NT) -- celtgirl, 21:09:06 03/04/12 Sun
- Ludovico's interest seems to be how hot he is in bed, not just his abilities in financial, etc areas. And what Elaine said about having the serving girl kneel in front of him - this doesn't seem right, it's yucky! (NT) -- Denise, 21:43:46 03/04/12 Sun
  - Oh yeah, there's some weird suppression going on with that guy. Whenever he shows up, mark my words, something big happens with our boy Claes. (NT) -- Elaine, 06:45:23 03/05/12 Mon
    - Btw, how does one pronounce 'Ludovico' anyway? For some reason I always stumble when I read that name. (NT) -- Elaine, 06:46:34 03/05/12 Mon
      - Maybe the pronunciation is in the companion, but I just say it phonetically in my head, with nothing unusual per se. (NT) -- Denise, 10:01:39 03/05/12 Mon
        I figured it was 'Loo-doe-vee-coe' that's how I say it in my head anyway. (NT) -- celtgirl, 10:08:11 03/05/12 Mon
        Yeah, that's how I've been saying it too. It's funny, I was visiting with a gf on Saturday, a very bright woman with a PhD in psychology and taking courses to become a chartered psychologist, so again, very bright lady, but she can't spell worth a darn, and can't read aloud without butchering the words. She blames this on English not being her first language, she spoke Polish initially. Anyhooo, she explained that she doesn't read aloud in her head when but just recognizes and knows the words as she reads. Doesn't that seem strange? I've always got a pitter patter of words running in my head when reading, or even as I type this post. (NT) -- Denise, 10:32:57 03/05/12 Mon
        Interesting. I notice when I am writing, if I want to write clearly so that others can read, I have to slow down the sound of the words in my head. Think each letter at a time instead of the word. Does that make sense? It really helps me to slow my hand and make my writing more clear. (NT) -- Lil, 13:48:30 03/05/12 Mon
        If I don't slow myself down, my handwriting is almost unreadable, so I can understand totally what you are doing. (NT) -- Denise, 16:09:43 03/05/12 Mon
        That's so weird. When I read French, I sort of read it like your friend reads English. (I don't speak French well at all anymore, don't even try now.) (NT) -- Elaine, 16:38:37 03/05/12 Mon
