I feared they might get more dramatic with it, like make her have to choose between risking the baby's life and going on some dangerous mission. I didn't mind it once I saw it. It added another convenient personal angle to the motivations for finding a better solution. Heh, the "I'm pregnant and hormal" reminded me of "I'm pregnant, not brain dead." - -- Ife ========================================================= This has been a message to the chakram-refugees list.

Somehow I thought you'd be... taller." - Amarice > What's funny is, I was seldom conscious of Lucy's height in XWP, even tho they frequently put shorter actors next to her. Boy, did she look tall in those pants in Locusts -- legs going on forever. It occurs to me now that I have the above comment backwards. Maybe they'll have to start finding tall enough men to match *her* height requirement.

I'll be taking INSANE amounts at the con, but there's never pictures allowed at plays that I know of. Maybe without the flash, but I doubt it. Course, gonna hang around outside after in hopes of an autograph and in taking as many pictures as I can. Getting a NICE NEW digital camera for the event, so I'll have GREAT pictures to share. And I take notes at conventions to write reviews. ;) BATTLE ON XENA!
