Just want to clarify something. When I said Nick was honorable, that doesn't mean he was a *saint*. Like other soldiers, he wasn't averse to "partying" with women apparently. ;) However, I don't think he was the type to consciously and deliberately set out to take a *lady's* virginity. Of course, that doesn't mean that if the "lady" was willing, he would turn her down... ;) Nick's apparently had a weak spot for women since before he became a vampire. ;) --Sandra Gray, forever Knightie --tmp_harkins@d....... ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 12 Mar 1996 14:36:24 -0800 From: Swordsister <catheboo@c.......> Subject: Re: Unwilling vampires On Mon, 11 Mar 1996, Sandra Gray wrote, re.

Are only *some* Well, as I recall, Brianna looked and acted like a totally different person when she met O'Neill for the second time. I got the impression she was one of those like Richard who, irregardless of their past mortal lives, become vastly different when they are brought across. Some part of vampirism must have appealed to her. Or perhaps she had no idea what it was that was being offered to her, and simply chose to live. There are lots of plausible reasons, I'm sure, but those were the ones that came to mind first.

Scared the stuffing out of me. Gave me nightmares non-stop for 4 years and I couldn't sleep in the dark till I was 12. On the plus side, however, I did turn into a horror fiction writer and have made many a car payment with the checks I get paid. ;) Now, I wouldn't recommend letting the kids watch Alien like I did. But I'd let my kids (well, assuming I had any) watch the milder eps. Course, I'm a Cousin. What do I know about safety and being nice?? Personally, I think Baywatch oughtta come with a warning: CAUTION -- may induce blindness, vomiting, and a rapid drop in IQ... Meeeeow! The morals kids can pick up whilst watching FK: 1. Don't play with your food. Something bad always happens when you play with your food. (TG,FI,GVP for a few) 2. Don't disobey your Uncle. Something bad always happens when you disobey Uncle. 3. Respect your elders. Especially your 2000 year-old elders. 4. Give a helping hand to those who need it. (A la Janette in AMPH) 5. Don't play with fire. Something bad always happens... well, you know the rest.

(Although >that doesn't explain why *Nick* took a couple of deep breaths in NIQ, nearly >scaring the poor nurse to death.) Well if their hearts beat once every ten minutes, you'd think they'd have to breathe at least once every ten minutes or all the blood in 'em will get all stale and icky. I'm of the opinion they breathe a lot more than that however -- you HAVE to breathe to talk. You speak by pushing air out. FK vampires do a lot of talking, so I'm guessing they suck up a lot of oxygen. ;) Wicked Cousin Tippi ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 12 Mar 1996 16:55:46 -0500 From: Robbi Egersdorf <egersdor@m.......> Subject: Re: Fangs and Blood Sucking I am now convinced that vamp fangs are solid not hallow through discussion of an alternate source. Following are the two reasons: 1) Anatomically, FK vampires go for the jugular vein rather than the carotid artery, still there would be sufficient pressure with two small punture holes in the wall of the vein to quickly drain a person and, more importantly: 2) Hallow teeth would sacrifice a signifcant amount of strength.

The thing to remember, in this case as in so many others, is that Forever Knight is NOT about vampires. It is a drama about one vampire's quest to REDEEM himself, by regaining his humanity. This is the truth; and it is also the slant that will maybe induce people to take the show more seriously than if it were simply "that vampire cop show".

I stoped once, and picked up my friend Jackie, who is a Cousin. The first thing we did when we got to the hotel, was to check in, and then check out the dealers room. Not much fk, but some very nice pics, Jackie got several of uncle. I got several, one very good one of Vachon, and the seller told me the first thing to run out was her Vachon pics!!!! Found a bunch of pros zines for only five dollars a peice. Jackie was in her best uncle way trying to get me to get our stuff to the room, and I made her wait. (hey, I love bargins!) Revel con is a small con, but it was crawling with cousins. The Canadian eps that I brought went down good when they where show in the vid room. There was some very good art in the art room that centered around uncle, and some prints that had forever natalie, forever shanke and forever janette. my all time lucky thing was when I won for only twenty-two dollars at an auction, a show poster of martin shaw that was autograped. There were others that wanted it, but didn't show because they knew It would got for much more then that! Boy were they mad! The costume contest had only one FK entry, a Vachon that was part of a group that won an award. He was quite convincing. Yum, yum. I met one man that said he knew the truth about the future of FK, that it was renewed for two more years in synidcation. He was talking about a five year deal thingie, and I very nicely told him, that he was confusing FK with B5! arg!!!! Put out flyers about the save fk and they where snatched up.

(That would be if I had any kids.) The first time I saw FK I was surfing. I~d just skipped from Law and Order to FK, and I found FK kind of refreshing. In Law and Order where everyone and thing was jaded: the cops swore all the time... you saw people getting beat-up shoot in graphic detail blood on the walls... details of autopsies with police and doctors that seem to have no respect for the dead person... I tuned into FK thinking it was just another cop show, except the police did not swear, seemed to be interested on justice and there was little blood and gore. It was all implied like Alfred Hitchcock movies. There probably was no blood and gore because FK did not have a large special effect budget, but I found it refreshing anyway. It used to make my laugh that one of the least bloody shows on TV was about vampires. Don~t get me wrong I~ve seen liked almost every horror movie from the Old Vincent Price stuff to ~Nightmare on Elm Street~. And I like what I~ve seen of the third season, where FK seems to have a larger special effect budget. But after all the blood and gore there was something refreshing about the first two seasons of FK~s bloodlessness and and very black and white version of good and evil. ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 12 Mar 1996 21:30:59 -0600 From: Crystal Guffey <guffeyc@t.......> Subject: Sony site has new exclusive I don't know if this has been posted already, but the Sony site has an interview with Gillian Horvath in the exclusive section of FK.

Better yet, this was off the ClariNet-newsgroups, a syndicated news item transmittal service! SPRINGFIELD, Mo. (Reuter) - Health officials in a small Missouri city said Friday they were looking into reports of a game in which players pretend to be vampires and suck each other's blood. Health workers in Greene County, Missouri, said the game began as a harmless role-playing activity by adults that did not involve any blood-sucking. ``Some younger kids got involved and took it a step further and have actually been sticking themselves with pins and sucking each other's blood,'' said Kevin Gipson, health planner for the Springfield/Greene County Health Department. Gipson said he knew of at least one case where blood was obtained through a bite. The department said it learned of the game from participants who worried about their health. HIV, the virus that causes AIDS, and hepatitis are just a few serious pathogens to which players expose themselves, Gipson said. Gipson said recent movies and novels by Anne Rice had contributed to the popularity of vampirism.

Of course, that > all has to change, since I graduate in May. Yikes! Books? Homework? Papers? Wow! Is *that* what I am supposed to be doing here? Here I thought I paid tuition to get "free" internet access and e-mail account. I came to college for an education (and a degree might be nice, too) and I become an expert on FK...well, I guess that qualifies as an education. After all look what I've learned: TPTB are ruthless, cold-blooded, back-stabbing, blatant liars, and deluded enough to think that we will go away....and then I've learned some *really* important stuff, like the fact that there is a place in Toronto called the "Vampire Sex Bar"--priorities, you know. <Sshh> Just don't tell that guy back home who pays the bills...what's his name, again?...oh, yeah: Dad.

Sorry, Dotti R. gave me this idea (you HAD to mention the Animaniacs Dracula bit, didn't you? :)= ). And someone was probably gonna do it sometime anyway... Let's see. Of course, we have the trio of Warners. In FK... hey, we have a trio of vampyres! LaCroix: Yakko Nick: Wakko Janette: Dot (I can actually see this) The alternate to this would be Goodfeathers... LaCroix: Bobby Uhhhh... This is kind of tricky. Nick is pretty Squit-ish, but I can't seem to see Janette as Pesto... Nat: Slappy <ducking from NatPacker fire> Hey, I LIKE Slappy... Vachon: Buttons, but only because... Tracy: Mindy Urs: Katie Ka-Boom. Nice, sweet, innocent, but when she gets mad... Reese: Dr. Scratchnsniff Screed: Rita, maybe Runt on occasion.

It just occured to me that there are Nick&Natpackers, Immortal Beloveds, Valentines, and someone even suggested a Les Miserables couple-faction for Nick and Urs, but... nothing for Tracy and Vachon? Is that because they are actually together -- sort of? Is it because Tracy inspires so little identification? Is it because all the Vaqueras want to have Vachon to themselves? :) Is there no one out there who actually wants Tracy and Vachon together and is able to say so in a clever faction name? :) ******* Amy (Amy R.) r......@w....... ******* (Knightie-in-training; N&Ner; Light Cousin; Nevermore) "For as you were when first your eye I eyed,/Such seems your beauty still." ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 13 Mar 1996 00:49:27 -0500 From: Sharon Scott <Sss44@a.......> Subject: Re: Flower Power Hey, the 60's weren't that bad! I started college in the late 60's. :-) Can't you just imagine Nick with flowers in his hair, dancing barefoot in the park in the moonlight? However, he probably wasn't, darn it. It makes a nice mental picture anyway. :-) We've seen him as the college student-type (1966); as a rookie cop in Chicago somewhere in the 60's (did anybody ever date that Mustang parked in the alley?); and as a off-duty cop working security at a political convention. Any others? I remember somebody commenting that the 60's were getting really crowded with flashbacks. And LaCroix in a Nehru jacket spouting "the Age of Aquarius, indeed" was one of the FK moments I'll never forget. :-) No comment on the 70's. College, marriage, divorce, and major surgery are all I remember.

A 'hero' cannot retain his macho image if he were vampirized (victimized) by force but if it was while he was carnally distracted then it is acceptable. And he can agonize over it as well and have someone else to blame.
