Subject: LaCroix's children

The other day  while I was watching Can't run Can't hide  it suddenly struck
me that LaCroix's description of the rage   he sensed in  the Viet Cong's
heart   was  very similar to  what he told Nick he'd sensed in  Hitler     .

So my question to you is do you think  LaCroix  deliberately seeks   his
children    among    the  angry and   disillusioned?   And if so what does
this say about LaCroix.

Janette  would  fall  under this category as did Nick .  One might   assume
Francesca  fell in it  as well .  Admittedly  we know nothing about her
coming across   but  we do know  her anger at Nick's killing her  was strong
enough  transcend her own death.

Here's the link. If there's any trouble, drop me a
line and I'll look into it. If that second line
doesn't post either copy it into the address bar, or
type it out manually.

Debbie Clark wrote about Francesca and coming across.

If I'm not mistaking, Nick did bite her and tried to bring her across but, he
failed and took too much and LaCroix took great pleasure in reminding him of
that.  Correct me if I'm wrong.

You're confusing LC's daughter with Nick's wife, Alyssa.  It was Alyssa
that Nick tried to bring across on their wedding night and took too much.

I don't remember a Alyssa.  I thought Nick's wife was Francesca.  Lacroix didn't
have any natural children before he was brought across.  Diva brought him
across.  Sorry for the confusion and the help

No, Francesca was someone LaCroix brought across, thus Nick's VAMPIRIC
"sister."

Diva *was* LaCroix's NATURAL (ie: human) child.

Alyssa was a human/mortal Nick met after he was a vampire and was going to
bring across on his wedding night. He took too much and killed her instead.

Hope that helps!

In both senses of the word: "natural child" is an old
euphemism for child born out of wedlock.

I have moved the ftp site. The structure is the same.  I just move the
directories to the new isp.   It is now sitting at
http://www.fkvoyage.com/fkfanfic/

Just to keep the permissions straight, just continue to give permission
to the FTP site to archive your story if you still want it archived there.

Thanks,

Subject: Re: LaCroix's children

Going back to the original question... I don't know.  It's a very intriguing
observation.  My first reaction is that angry, dissillusioned people are easier
to manipulate, because they have lost whatever they used to believe in and are
looking for something new.  There's a saying, "you can never truely change until
you are thoroughly sick of the old way."  Maybe by bringing across those that
are thoroughly sick of their old lives, it's more likely they'll turn their
backs on everything having to do with mortality and never look back.

A second reason may be that the ability to be that angry and dissillusioned is
evidence of a passionate spirit.  And we do know how LaCroix loves a passionate
spirit. <eg>

How quickly melt away,
