In reply to: Elaine 's message, "I think she's still scared of her own reaction, what might happen if she reaches out for him. Poor child was so traumatized by her experience she doesn't know how to begin. But Lymond clearly sees she is not ready. He always sees the subtle evidence that others miss." on 09:37:55 05/08/09 Fri

Yes, definitely, if she touches him and he responds, if one thing were to lead to another, she can't handle anymore than tentative touching, and Lymond seems like he is exercising a control that is almost killing him, at this point. Philippa knows this, and knows that it's not fair to touch him unless she is far stronger than she is at present. (NT) -- celtgirl (), 10:05:03 05/08/09 Fri
- That way, that sunlit, gentle path was set with mines, and had at the end of it a chasm she could not contemplate. So, she hid her impulse, and did not know, because he was better at concealment than she, that he had noticed it. (V, pg. 452) (NT) -- Sallie, 10:18:59 05/08/09 Fri
  - It's funny, I'm home from (paid) work today and trying to tackle a mountain of housework. I put on my headset and started up the CD player, forgetting where I had left off with DOA only to come to the scene where Bree confronts Jamie in the stable about how he has dealt with his own rape - does the anger, fear, uncertaintly about life ever go away. How timely to come across this considering what has occurred in recent chapters in Checkmate. (NT) -- Denise, 11:20:51 05/08/09 Fri
