Filling In the Corners  by Celeritas 2 Review(s)

Oh, this is good, to see things from Rosemary's perspective for once!

Author Reply: Thanks! I've finally got things lined up where Kira can begin to see things from her mother's perspective, and I realized that I should probably set her a good example and actually get in the hobbit's mind. (Previously I've understood where she's coming from, but never actually written anything from her p.o.v.)

It's late for her to come to this realization, almost too late. If she only knew that Kira's forged her own prospects and that her bookishness is the mainstay of it. It's not the kind of prospects her mother would ever understand, and that's where it's so sad. All Rosemary has wanted for Kira is security, never considering there is more to it than that.

Author Reply: Whether it's too late or not depends entirely on Rosemary's ability to revise her behavior, which can be really difficult this many years into the game. Especially because she has no idea that Kira has her own plans, because Kira will never tell her.

In case you can't tell, I'm doing a lot of work on their relationship right now. I've always felt really bad for Rosemary, but I think it's hard for readers--especially in modern society--to understand her perspective. Probably because almost everything I write is written from Kira's.
