petroniaFinished the Bujold book.
...The simple, dumb and implacable logic behind the Ivan/By slash thing: there's nobody else left. _o_ Boy *or* girl. Every single Barrayaran down to Martya Koudelka. I don't know what she's going to do for the next book, but I can only admire the intricacy on display here. Nice to read an author who can really plot, I can't do it myself.
(That and all the Vorrutyers have to be bent, because it's the only way I can make up the numbers in my head. I mean, the old Vor... you know that statistic thingummy that was going around about the number of boys in a family?)
I don't think she'll bring back any of Miles' old flames, alas. Not after she'd gone to so much trouble to write them out.
