/"there would be three men in the room with serious scars on all that creamy and tanned goodness, respectively."/
First of all, yeah, I can see how you’re able to look past Asher’s scars. The way that you keep bringing them up like that, I’m sure that you’re not shallow at all.
Second of all, can you imagine what would happen if somebody described the Phantom of the Opera as having “serious scars on all that creamy and tanned goodness” to his face? I don’t know why, but that image just cracks me up.
Third of all, stop pretending as if this pointless sex scene has any purpose other than for Anita to once again have sex with good-looking men. “For the greater good,” my foot. You’re obviously not that too concerned about your duty if you can bother spending fifteen minutes outlining how hot your partners are. At least James Bond didn’t try to claim that all of his one-night-stands were done in order to save the world or something.
/"Wow, look at all that creamy goodness."/
Whatever happened to all of your complaints about your pale skin, Anita, and how people supposedly looked down on you for being a “pale-skinned half-Mexican?” Whatever happened to all of your whining about being “short?” Does this mean that we’ll never have to hear you whine and complain about your appearance in the following books? Does that mean that you’ll stop being so stupidly jealous of other women, since you have all of this “creamy goodness?” Ha, of course not.
/I thought that when she said "fix this" that she meant STOP HAVING/THINKING OF/TREATING PEOPLE AS POSSESSIONS but actually what she meant was fix the fight with Richard so that "the possessions" won't get split up like in a divorce./
First of all, children are not possessions. Second of all, *people* are not possessions. Third of all, wow, Mommy Dearest much? Actually, no, it’s Mommy Dearest on steroids. Anita’s not content with controlling one person; oh, no, she wants to control an entire city and views its inhabitants as her children. As if she were some mighty mother goddess whose duty is to protect those poor, infantile shapeshifters as if they were children instead of adults. That’s just so patronizing and paternalistic and downright *creepy.* I could easily see those words coming out of the mouth of some evil overlord who pretends to be fatherly in order to fool his subjects into complacency when he slaughters them. Or an evil overlord who literally views people as pawns for him to control and sacrifice at will. These are *people* that you’re talking about, Anita. Full-grown adults, who don’t need you to hold their hands and tug them around, thank you very much.
