Fisher disputes it, but doesn't really provide an adequate explanation himself. As this is Templar saying it, things may appear this way to him because he took his own religious symbolic system and applied to real life. Or he could be the only one that truly sees what's happening.<BR/><BR/>But now he is face to face with the demon through Claire. So, I don't know.

I felt the recap was necessary due to the gap!<BR/><BR/>Lydia - thanks and i agree. This is my fault i think, because i didn't quite build up Brannigans' break-down and nerves enough previously, so his laugh does seem a little forced. Oh well!<BR/><BR/>But yes - people do laugh at inappropriate moments all the time :)Don't Feed The Pixieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05380146661526476947noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2094379750831310333.post-77605854881766649012009-01-10T01:59:00.000-08:002009-01-10T01:59:00.000-08:00I, too, appreciated the recap.I settled down with ...I, too, appreciated the recap.<BR/><BR/>I settled down with tea to read your post early this evening and my husband got home more quickly than usual, interrupting my reading. I clicked off and went on with the evening, but felt grouchy! Couldn't wait to read on. <BR/><BR/>You are SO creative. I am enthralled with this story. Shocked at the deaths in this one, first the shooting (ick), then the sheer strangeness of the others' demise. I love the way you describe the light in McKenzie's eyes in the final moments. I'll miss her and I really liked her name; it suited her.<BR/><BR/>The ONLY thing that didn't feel perfect in this was when Brannigan laughed hysterically in finding out about the former marriage.....it seemed the natural reaction to such news except the circumstance they were in might be too tense for laughter. Then again, I realize that many people laugh at exactly such moment (my husband for one - - - and I just now realized why I don't like that part!) <BR/><BR/>Really looking forward to more.Lydiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11135393270656573516noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2094379750831310333.post-79433088605770426282009-01-09T20:27:00.000-08:002009-01-09T20:27:00.000-08:00Great job ending the chapter with a hook for more....Great job ending the chapter with a hook for more.

But I wasn't sure if I should believe it or not, as Templar is one perspective of many, and is possibly biased by superstitious versions of the beliefs he claim.<BR/><BR/>Waiting for the next installation.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
