*zigzags conversation slightly* I do like what you were talking about, tracing a romance past the initial infatuation stages. It has been driving me nuts for a while now the way she talks about romances. Aside from the whole "every good romance story naturally ends with a birth," thing, which ug ug ug! Um. Anyway. Just that she's said in a few places that everything after A Civil Campaign was like a codicil, because I assume she did the thing she wanted to do. And here I am, way more interested in the details of established married life than the rush of the beginning. So points for that idea, except that Dag and Fawn are still pretty bland to me.
