...also whatever Maggie and Nate and Sophie are working out in the background... I've thought for some time that'd be an awesome OT3... I'd never thought of it before, but TOTALLY AGREED. What is it with this fandom and OT3s? Usually there's one, maybe two, but this one grows them like my neighbor's arrest record!
Zvi does write them unusually introspective, yes. That's the problem I think I'd have writing in this fandom - with the exception of Nate and Sophie, the characters don't slow down very much, and their worlds are made of absolutes - while you could argue that the whole Robin Hood thing was for them an exercise in changing moral geographies, all of them are so set in their opinions that 90% of the time, it's not the world challenging those beliefs, but the characters challenging the world. Like, they already know which actions are right/wrong, and the only question is how they are going to go about taking those actions. Sophie would be an interesting character to write, though, especially Zvi's Sophie.

But yeah. Napping = sweet. Right on cue, aw.
