Reading QP and I'm not quite sure that the D de De isn't a sort of self-parodying self insert by Dorothy Dunnett who does, afterall, share her initials.
I mean...
"'Aucassins, damoisiax, sire!' the Dame observed, in brisk mediaevel quotation; and Christ! thought Lymond, thrown into mild hysteria by the greeting."
Ms. Dunnett...?
It feels a little too neat to not a Dunnett joke.
Thoughts?
In my happy ramblings through the Lymond tag, I came across a fancast post to which @hellotailor had added a comment on how Gabriel might be ideally played by Chris Evans, or at least by someone who looks Like That. This was such a startling idea that my brain immediately latched on to it and refuses to let go (previously my fantasy choice would have been Ladyhawke-era Rutger Hauer, maybe).
Could Chris Evans do it?
- Good reviews for playing corrupt cop on stage
- Half the planet trained by Marvel to see him as Steve Rogers, embodiment of Good
- Can you imagine the shock value of Chris Evans playing a Steve Rogers-type character who turns out to be pure sociopathic evil?
- Just to put the finishing touches on the concept, last night I came across a short fic in which Steve Rogers has basically been Graham Reid Malett all his life:
"The Value of Strength", by Margo_Kim (AO3)
It felt like seeing inside Gabriel's head.

I have finally managed to get a friend to join me in the anguished delight that is reading the Lymond Chronicles. First success ever (other friends bounced off the first section of GoK, in the traditional manner). I am STOKED.
She’s just finishing QP and came to make sure I’d brought the next one for her to start :)
Anyway, I hadn’t reread them myself for a few years, so this was obviously the perfect reason to do so. And, because I was very anxious for her to enjoy them in a totally low-key, no-I’m-not-bothered, it’s-fine-if-you-don’t-like-them (please-please-like-them) sort of way, I thought I’d see what was out there in the way of chapter-by-chapter reading discussion group thingies. Just to be helpful. And I found one, and then thought I’d perhaps better check it out.
I love reading book/movie/TV show discussions, doesn’t matter if they’re old or not (hence me spending happy hours trawling through the Lymond and Dunnett tags on Tumblr, now that I’m aware of them). But it’s incredibly frustrating when they are WRONG about things and the conversation happened three years ago and there’s no point joining in at this stage. And I don’t mean WRONG as in “I can’t believe you interpret this particular interaction in that way”, or “Eww how can you ship those two”, I mean “This line that you have all dived on like seagulls on a chip and are using to support entire edifices of theorizing, is misquoted!” I was so thrown I had to go back and find that section of the book, like, maybe I’ve been reading this wrong for years (not unknown, for me) and this character’s true motives are revealed really early on and I never noticed?? But no, it’s a fairly significant misquote. And the kicker is, it wouldn’t actually lead you down the wrong path, but it would result in a significantly different first-time reading experience.
So I’m glad my friend decided that she was fine without any reading-group assistance. I am really looking forward to her unspoiled opinions of the Malett family.
For my storymap project, I decided to inform the general public on the best sandwiches that the Valley has to offer (in my opinion.) If you have been looking to find your new favorite lunch stop, look no further than this interactive slideshow of my favorite restaurants.
