Came across this on the interweb. Both Schanke and Nat are type AB.

I thought Schanke was type A?  I think it's kind of silly-- descriptions as
vague as those can all be applied to all but the most one-dementional
personalities.

Reminds me of astrology, actually.

Welllll ... for all his "angsting," Nick didn't strike me as a
character particularly prone to reflection. He's been around a long
time, and there's much he could reflect on, but the flashbacks
generally seemed, to me, as not being conscious "reflections," but ...
unbidden shards of past experiences, past identities.

As for the story you're planning: why five reflections? Are the all
connected in some way, so there's a thread connecting them all? It
seems an ambitious challenge, since they would have to be handled in
such a way as to maintain the structure and emotional temperature of
the story.

Here's a dumb question: are Nick's flashbacks conscious recollection,
or dramatic counterpoint that operates either in his subconscious or
just on the story line? Or did it differ from ep to ep?

Best wishes,

A negative (Dark K night, if you want to check it out yourselves).

Hmm, read the description( I agree that they are rather superficial) :
if I'm so competitive and prone to lead - how come I'm not the boss? LOL

Do you think our vamps have a favorite blood type for their snack?
