Was Nick's disapproval in that scene of Carouches or of Screed? I got the
feeling that Nick was more disapproving of Screed's lifestyle than his role
as a carouche. Could it be that Nick is the vampire equivilent of a snob?

I haven't seen all the episodes yet: maybe someone could answer another
question for me? In any of the backstories/flashbacks, are we ever shown the
turning point at which Nick decides he'll no longer kill humans? Do we know
exactly where and when this decision took place, other than that it was
somewhere around 100 years ago?

I'm not sure, but I think it's in Love You To Death, after LaCroix tricks

Subject: Re: Liking Third Season
There's a lot more than one thing I like in nearly all of these episodes,
but I'll try to pick just one.
1-2 "Black Buddha" -- The scene between Reese and Nick that starts with Reese
saying, "There must be something human missing in that guy." and Nick's
reaction to that statement.
3 "Outside the Lines" -- The speech from LaCroix to Nick about "This double
standard of yours." (I _really_ want to see that scene again!)
4 "Blackwing" -- The line about the darkness surrounding Nick, and the light
trying to get out.
5 "Blind Faith" -- The ending. "Good dog."
6 "MBIAV" -- The affection between Nick and Nat at the end. ("If I start
talking about wellness love and unwellness love...", etc.)
7 "HoD" -- The way it set up later eps, like NiQ, with the idea that if
someone didn't know he was a vampire, maybe he wouldn't be.
8 "Trophy Girl" -- flashback -- This was the first time I saw just _how_
much Nick could lose control in a situation like that.
9 "LNMTA" -- The loving way Nick seemed to encircle Natalie after he rescued
her.
10 "Night in Question" -- The confrontation between Natalie and LaCroix.
The gift tag on the bottle of blood. (I said I'd _try_ to stick to just one.)
And the kiss. (Sorry, I really am doing too many; on to the next.)
11 "Sons of Belial" -- LaCroix telling Nick, "There is good in you!" and the
way he said "Paradise Lost" and the way his face fell after he said it. (I
know this sounds like two, but since I think the two are related, it's really
one.)
12 "Strings" -- flashback: "And you are under...?" and LaCroix's refusal to
answer.
13 "Fever" -- The different ways each of the three, LaCroix, Nick, and Vachon,
reacted to what was happening.
Amy, thanks for coming up with this idea. It's given me the chance to relive
so many episodes and moments . I really enjoyed reading your list, and I

Well, sort of. But I think it has more to do with Nick's feelings about
being a vampire, which he typically doesn't feel too good about. It was
a way of saying, "Yes, I'm a vampire, but I'm not like you."

Hi gang,
Just a thought to mill around in those overly-active minds of yours. If
Nick somehow does manage to become mortal again would Natalie <or fans>
still find him quite so inticing? We always tend to want what we don't and
can't have. The darkness and danger we see in Nick, and LaCroix as well,
is alluring for some preverse human reason which I will leave to the

I personally can't see how Nick would have brought Dr. Hunter across.
Earlier in the episode he was concerned he might *kill* her. Also, we
know from the tag that Nick went unconscious after his fight with LC
and Nat gave his a transfusion from Schanke. I don't see how Nick
could have had the control (and if he had drained any blood from Alyce,
why would he have passed out and needed a transfusion?). LC was
listening to Alyce describe why she wanted Nick to bring her over and
I think that's what LC did, not necessarily because of her reasons
(which he expressed agreement with), but more because *Nick* cared
about her and LC may have seen that caring as a way to try to get Nick
to come back and live as a vampire again (he may have been counting on
Alyce to "lure" Nick back to a "normal" life).

Subject: Information PLEASE!
Although I don't think of myself as a newbie any more, there are a few
questions about the lists I still don't know the answers to (either I
missed the posts, or nobody has asked or answered them). So here they
are for your perusal (broken up into nice quotable 4 line chunks).
The FORKNI-L/FKFIC-L FAQ file by Steven Fellows I have is dated October
1994. Is there a more recent one available? If so, where can I get it?
(PLEASE don't send it as an e-mail file attachement without making prior
arrangements: that's a good way to blow up my mail box! ;-]= )
Does anyone know the current e-mail address of the FAQ author? The last
few I tried didn't work, and I'd like a copy of the file in its original
Wordperfect 5.1 format. I have macros that could convert it into an HTML
document, and I would like to use them (unless he has already done it).
Does a comprehensive list of episode abbreviations and titles exist? If
so, could someone please post it to the list? When I see abbreviations,
I have to stop from 10 to 30 seconds to dredge my memory for a matching
title, which is a bit of a pain (more so when I have not seen the ep).
Is there any way to make the listserver sort my digests by subject, or
at least time sent (GMT)? It gets very confusing reading messages out of
order (particularly with FKFIC-L story posts). If there isn't, I'll have
to go off digest and on to regular mail (which I CAN sort properly).

I just got through watching a tape of the Gemini awards and couldn't help
noticing that even GWD's colleagues can't pronounce his name. When I was
relatively new to this list, I inadvertently started a long and tedious
thread when I asked how to pronounce his name. So, for newbies and other
curious people:
********Now playing on the World Wide Web!*********
Hear Geraint Wyn Davies pronounce his own name! Yep, a friend of mine put
together an actual audio snippet of the man himself. Check it out on my
Obsession Page. Surf over to:

It's also linked to the Shrewthering web page (URL in my .sig). If you're
truly webless and can't live without hearing this, I can probably figure
out how to attach a .wav file to an e-mail message and send it to you.
E-mail me off-list if you want me to send you the .wav file (use my AOL
address: AlliePercy@a.......). Put the word GERAINT in the subject line.
As others have noted, another way to hear him say his name is to buy one
of his audiobooks, "Hauntings" or "Forebodings." Get info on these books
by e-mailing Tangled Web Audio at <tangled@n.......>.
ObFK: (This isn't inserted gratuitously; I really want to know the
answer) My tape of "Black Buddha" from USA has Screed saying to Vachon
something like, "don't ask me to save your Spanish ..." and I think
something was cut from the audio. I presume he meant to use the word, um,
"elbow." <g> Was this word only edited out of the USA version? Was it
left in the syndicated version??

Good question - as in any relationship half the fun is the chase. I think
that's why so many marriages fail because once the excitement of the chase
is gone-you fall into mundane--if you let it. I have a feeling that if Nick
became mortal, both Nat and myself would still find him extremely attractive
physically (just coz he is) and I think we all love that human part of him
so if he were human there'd be more to love. And don't think for a minute
that if he were human he wouldn't have some kind of dark quality to him.
You can't be like that for 800 years and not have some kind of residue - so
that hint of the unknown danger which makes him exciting and interesting
will always be there. IMHO ofcourse!!!

In the flashback in "Love You to Death". Nick is in love with a beautiful
ballerina (can't remember her name). Nick does not want to approach her,
because he feels that such purity cannot stand evil like him. LaCroix tricks
Nick into believing that the dancer is, well, anything less than pure. Nick
then kills her. After Nick is finished LaCroix reveals that it was a trick, he
just wanted Nick to kill again. In the last scene (in the present) Nick tells
Janette that was the turning point for him. He decided to stop killing even
the guilty.
That's just my brief summary.

My thoughts as well! Tracy has been maturing into someone that Nick could
trust, and get along with as a serious partner--Schanke was all too often
played for laughs, something I hate to see. *However*, she is also still
young and impulsive in a way that the 800 yr old vampire *isn't*.
This could have bled (sorry) over into the Tracy 'n Vachon thing. It seems
to me that those two would be much more likely to say "Damn the torpedos,
full speed ahead" and get into a physical relationship. This could have made
for an interesting tension--Nick will take *no* chances with Nat's life
(even when she'd kinda like him to), and yet Vachon, who claims to love
Tracy, is quite willing to let her take a dangerous risk. A chance far
riskier than unprotected sex w/an HIV-positive lover! This would work
especially well since Vachon is quite happy being a vampire, and might well
convince Traaacy (sorry, have to do it at least once) that, if the worst
happens, he'll just bring her across!
That could have been fun for an entire season, seeing the two opposing
opinions on the nature of the vampire "curse". Of course, this is only what
my rabid imagination has come up with. It could be just that TPTB weren't
thinking far enough ahead (or at all...). Still, it seems fairly reasonable,
provides dramatic tension, and provides some on-screen skin for those of us
who are relationship-ally depraved--I mean deprived! And that's the angle
I'm taking in my current fiction (Guilt Trip--free plug!).
I've said my piece--fire away! ;-)

Subject: best things in early 3rd season eps
Snippets I enjoyed from the first half of this season (and these are probably
out of order)...(and thanks Amy for the idea!)
*Black Buddha 1--Nick trying to tell Nat that she was his wish from the
buddha and her not "hearing" him. Nick and Nat at the piano.
*Black Buddha 2--Um... still thinking... I've only seen this one once 'cause
I accidentally taped wrestling on USA instead of it.
*Outside the Lines--Hoo boy...*next!*
*Blackwing--Jess Blackwing. LC's monologue, "Black you are, and black you'll
stay." Call me a twisted Nick&NatPacker, but I truly liked the scene where
Nick tells Nat he doesn't feel guilty for the first time in his life,
speaking into the stethoscope, and she says "sorry to burst your morning
after bubble."
*Hearts of Darkness--I *think* the fang-measuring scene must have been cute,
but I cringed/fastforwarded through this one...
*Blind Faith--cute doggie
*My Boyfriend is a Vampire-all the N&N interaction except for the #%@!! tag
*Trophy Girl--don't remember much about this one except for Tracy looking
like a '70s female TV cop throwback. Was this the one where Vachon did the
Maltese Falcon "undercover" thing? If so, then I did like BB's delivery of
that. Was this the "Rosebud" one? If so, that, too!! (can you tell I can't
keep the early eps straight, 'cause I only watched 'em once? <g>)
*Let No Man Tear Assunder--The knee-worshipping scene. Nat asking for flowers
and Nick offering to pick her up. "Against the wall!" The kiss that wasn't.
*Night in Question--EVERYTHING! Even Tracy, until the writers made her pull
another stupid female cop goes out alone to get shot at move. "Dr." LaCroix.
"We made a good team..." You'd better leave...by the door." The kiss! The
nose rubbing!!! :) :) :)
*Strings--memorable only for the line, "And you are under...?"
*Fever--"I'm hungry...and I'm hot." LC's monologue. LC, Nick, and Nat in the
morgue. Nick regarding Nat as Potential Lunch.
*Sons of Belial--the whole thing. Ger and Nigel looked like they were having
fun, especially in the flashbacks! Fun ep to watch, too. Loved the "wonder
vamp powers, activate!" dual spin-and-snarl. :)
All my own .02, worth .01 on a good day! ;)

Darn! I've been checking SciFi periodically all week looking to see if
they've started running commercials.

Whoa! Wasn' t this line from Trophy Girl, spoken to the killer in the

With hindsight, and the recent acquisition of a set of first and second
season tapes, which I have just started to watch, I appreciate the comments
of all the list members who find fault in the third season, but, still, I am
here because of it. However, I am in agreement that the second half of the
season has been superior to the first half.
>1-2 "Black Buddha" -- Vachon's shower scene (for Bonnie <g>)
did the best it could to introduce characters, etc, but a little
lacking for newbies. I learned much more once I found the web pages, list, etc.
>3 "Outside the Lines" --(tough) --the "Phantom" banner outside the building
this was the first episode I saw, so I have to admit to having been
too confused at the time, and I haven't seen it since. I do
remember being much more intrigued by the flashback sequence than the
current story.
>4 "Blackwing" -- (needs no defense) -- complex distribution of guilt
Nat reminding Nick that despite how he was feeling, he was *still* a
vampire
>5 "Blind Faith" -- wonderful guest actress
the accurate portrayal of an incurable disease
>6 "MBIAV" -- Nat standing up for herself with Nick
this one's a little fuzzy, too, but I recall a good bit of humor here
(there always seems to be a good line or two in most eposides)
>7 "HoD" -- Urs's origin
this one's tough, but the "if you don't know you're a vampire, you're
not" theory led in well to NiQ
>8 "Trophy Girl" -- flashback! "Intoxicating, wasn't she?"
definitely the best part. I also found the encounter between Nick and
the serial killer riveting (and no, I have never seen "Silence of the
Lambs", so I can't make any comparisons)
>9 "LNMTA" -- Nick likes the whole package just the way it is <g>
I agree
>10 "Night in Question" -- (needs no defense!) -- dream sequence
tie between that and kissing in front of the fireplace. this is
where I draw the line that most everything from here on out was
superior (with maybe a couple of exceptions)
>11 "Sons of Belial" -- (needs no defense!) -- scene in the Raven
needs no defense
>12 "Strings" -- flashback: "And you are under...?"
liked the historical tie-in - these things send me to the
encyclopedia>
>13 "Fever" -- (needs no defense!) --
(but I think its still spoiler protected)

Subject: One more way to get publicity
This is a message in Newsweek:
"Are you bypassing the raucous flame wars on the Net in favor of mailing
lists (discussion groups conducted over e-mail instead of bulletin
boards)? Send us the names of your favorite mailing lists (e-mail:
<cscope@n.......>); we'll publish the best."
I reason that this would be one more way to show TPTB that we are an
untapped market, and anything that helps give us leverage to get FK back
in production has gotta be an OK subject for the list.
<If I'm wrong, and this is deemed off-topic, then I offer my sincere

This may all just be due to too much cheap sherry, but I was roaming and
found that Nigel was in The Rocky Horror Show (or was it RHPS?). Just
wondering what part he played. Anyone know?
