Independence is important for a developing young man so I will support him, but I will also let him know that if he needs anything I am always here for him…
And then I’ll make sure to check out any place he wants to live in. Make sure it meets safety standards. Meet the neighbors to make sure they’re on the up and up and if I see ONE thing wrong he is moving somewhere else because my son deserves the best.
Being a parent is a serious matter! I might be jokey-joke about how much I love my worthless, beautiful son but I will take the responsibility seriously!
I have room in my heart for all my children, I just hope you don’t mind having Douglas as a brother.
Speaking of future villains, do you think the supernatural villain in book 2 will be a violent one like Murphy? I’m actually hoping it’s a slightly different kind of antagonist like maybe it’s a night hag that feeds off people’s nightmares or a pair of faeries striking shady deals with folks.
Probably not the main villain, as I’m sure those will be after the Detective’s blood but I’d love to solve crimes of strange nature - maybe a couple of citizens go missing near an old abandoned bridge or a couple of kids swear they saw strange lights flicking in a clearance at midnight.
Can you guys tell I read all Spiderwick books as a kid? lol
So, what kind of supernaturals would you like to encounter? Besides werewolves I mean, since I know they’re a fan-favorite.
Like the detective is being kept busy with ‘minor’ offensives, whilst the big bad wolf is growing more powerful still during the whole of the book and then finally at the end of book 2 they attack the detective, or kidnap the love interest!..
…Please no! I DESPISE CLIFFHANGERS! but I would undergo the agony for this perfect game series
Yeah, if there is one thing I really like about this book it is that the description does not turn vague when it writes about wounds and broken bones.
I actually need stuff like that to immerse better into a world, it makes it more real. Never mind the fact that there walk these charming vampires around the detective who heal from deep gashes in their bodies without thinking twice about it.
I’m with @Mewsly I think something like a shapeshifter would be a good way to continue. Unless they’re actively killing people, their crimes would be at best a nuisance especially if they’re impersonating the Detective.
It could serve as both a breather episode, as well also as an introduction for how the MC has to manage leading what is essentially a double life (having to lie/keep people ignorant about the supernatural) without outright killing us with angst, lol.
Edit:
You could still make shapeshifters dangerous by saying they need the hair, skin, or blood of their impersonation victim in order to transform into them? And the size of the DNA sample determines how long they can stay as the person.
But with the Detective’s blood, all they need to do now is touch people to change into them and they can impersonate them for days–and that’s not even counting being able to impersonate the Detective themself.
Did you notice M has a necklace that’s special to them, maybe it’s a witcher’s medallion. M is a witcher
Now all my MC needs is a unicorn to get that specific scene in the witcher
What if M is Gerald’s child?! What if they had the senses of a witcher as a human?! What if, when they were turned, their senses became amazing even for a vampire?! Why if they have inherited the personality of Geralt and that’s why they are so cranky a̶n̶d̶ ̶h̶o̶t???!!!
I know this makes no sense in the witcher universe, but shhhhhhhhhhhh.
@Mewsly, may I ask when do you sleep? You are here before I go to bed, you are here when I wake up to go to work, you are here in my evenings. Are you a vampire?
