Dark Angel Question

So. Those guys with the snakes and all that?

Um, what the heck was their deal? I mean the big plan that Max was supposed to be the only one that could break it.

In 100 words or less would be plenty. 25 would be great. Because I don't really care, I just need to write around it in a futurefic, maybe.

Thank you so much for the information!

I agree that it seemed to me that Alec was just figuring out what family is. He seems to so clearly need it and yet be wary of that need. Perhaps what they had intended, or what I would hope they would have done, is that he becomes a bit overwhelmed by what he's experienced in that final episode and does a sort of circle out, circle in, even if he really wants to stay because he's not quite there yet (kind of like a wild creature approaching a person for food and comfort).

That Jensen learned to play the piano is awesome. It's silly stuff like that that makes me happy.

I see this exactly. Opening himself up has never worked out well for him, so it couldn't be easy. Oh, Alec, hiding behind those walls.

also, just in case this is your sorta thing, I wrote a very short jensen RPGen fic about him and the piano. Rated G

I would completely buy Alec acting like a wary animal, but the writer acted like he'd leave just because he's sort of a jerk. And I like your analogy of Alec and a wild creature. I think it really fits. Instead of biting, he snarks as a way to keep people from getting too close.

When I saw Alec playing the piano I was very impressed with whatever hand model they used, because it was seamless! It really looked like Alec was playing the piano. And then I find out it looked so fantastic because Jensen actually learned the pieces... I'm definitely impressed. *g*
