While re-watching the Lector vs. Seto duel over and over again, I always look forward to seeing this bit of adorableness at the end of part 1, when Joey throws on the brakes of the pick-up truck so fast that Serenity crashes against Duke. So cute! I especially love that Duke is blushing as well as Serenity. He puts on a front of being a Casanova, but I still think he's more romantically innocent than a lot of fans think. I dunno, somehow I just can't picture a real Casanova blushing like this. Seems like instead they'd go, "Alright!" and immediately take advantage of the opportunity to have their prey so nearby. Instead, Duke was a perfect gentleman (even though poor Tristan was of course extremely upset and frustrated regardless).

I am amused that while writing my Christmas fic, I am half-writing it off the cuff, not fully knowing what's going to happen next. That was how I did the old mysteries too. And the plot gradually takes shape as I write. Some more things are making sense to me as I wrap up chapter 3 (albeit I imagine for the readers, it's only more confusing).

I wonder how many chapters I can get done before Christmas....
