Subject: Number One Son

I was watching "Ashes to Ashes" and Divia's interactions with LC and
it got me to thinking. She rightly surmised that Nick was LC's
"favorite", and it made me wonder if Nick's quest for humanity, the
struggle *against* LaCroix, was what made him the favored offspring?
Perhaps it was the struggle and clash of wills?

Thoughts?

	Realistically...it was because the show was "Forever Knight" not
"The Darkness of Ducharme".   Any show built around a central
character will have that character at the center of darn near
everything.

	Leaving reality aside and stepping into the world of the
show....would it make sense (given LaCroix's cultural history) that
he would favor any son over a daughter simply on the basis of gender??

	Not enormously...mind you... as a vampire LaCroix is clearly in
control of whom he adds to his "family".  If he really didn't feel
daughters were worthy, he would have never turned Janette....unless
he was seeking some replacement for Divia???  Now that could be a
truly twisted idea depending upon how you wiggle it.

	I have always found it "odd" that LaCroix has only two
"acknowledged" children that he keeps in long-term contact with.  He
waited over a thousand years to create Janette... and centuries more
passed (and it was clearly much her idea), before he crossed Nick
over.
	Yes, there have been others, but they are darn near vampire
equivalents of the "neck 'o the week".  You never hear or see them
again after the particular episode that they are part of.
	Clearly no one would write a series of novels without some
justification for these enormous spans of time that LaCroix spent
alone...or the complete indifference he seems to have toward his
"children" aside Nick and Janette.

I think if the show were centered around LaCroix his "children" would come
more into play.  Again, its the Nick Knight Show.  Who knows what LC is
doing when he isn't focused on Nick
