Wow, like always, very well written! And it is always such a delightful read!
But I am very surprised that this time around... I don't really agree with you on quite a few things. My interpretations on a lot of the scenes that you talk about here are so different from yours, which is weird since I generally agree with you so much!
I'm not going to go into detail, as I learned my lesson on the CW forums when I tried to do something similar that got my ass reamed for it, but I just thought that was really interesting.
