Most loved characters!

All of the Grayson's wives especially Benjamins. Grayson women in general. I almost cried, ok I did cry upon reading the history of the Grayson women. You simply cannot be the strongest woman you can be and not be Grayson.

Honor Harrington, case in point.

And the fact that they would never entertain cutting their hair (mine eyes roll in their sockets)
I'd follow Grayson women around like a puppy in heat.

No wonder so many men resist the change tespresented by Benjamin's reforms and also why so many have never left Grayson...It is like Shangri La!

Great admirals don't make wars great, bad admirals make great admirals' wars great.

...well, it gives me hope that someone thinks so, anyway.

I don't know how Mercedes Brigham could have endured what she endured at the hands of those Masadan %$#%$@. Yet she re-assumed her role as one of the most influential officers. I simply want to hug her.

Mercedes Brigham needs an enormous hug.

On that count, so does Andrea Jaruwalski. I love that woman. Watching Honor rehabilitate her career was a highlight of the series for me. Stupid bastard Santino, he can shove his [indistinct Matsuko-style sulfurous curses]...

People I also love...roseandheather...for this post!!

However, you said "cthia...blame her."
Her?, You do know that I am male...don't you?

I simply must stop wearing my emotions on my sleeves.

...WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOPS.

(In my defense, any name ending in "a" automatically registers as feminine in my brain... can we just pretend this never happened? *looks around for convenient rock to hide under*)

Are you kidding me? It is downright impossible for a Grayson-like Princess to Ever do anything wrong. Bow.

By the way. Before I began fooling around on my first love, Star Trek, I was heavily into all things Vulcan. SPOCK'S WORLD is a favorite book. Inside that world I borrowed cthia-which is Vulcan for logic.

ummmm,
If I said it once I've said it a thousand times...
Andrea Jurawalski did not NEED rehabilitating.
What kind of message are we sending?!

No, Andrea most certainly didn't need rehabilitating, because she is awesome. But her career did, because Elvis Santino is a [indistinct Matsuko-style sulfurous curses].

Poor Honor - always having to clean up after jerks.

Thanks for subtly correcting me. It was all about her career, wasn't it?
It's just that that entire sordid affair is like lemons on my palate.

I share something in common with Sharon Weber, in that I really like Mac. He's been with Honor on many of her adventures. I can't imagine what it would be like if Honor lost MacGuiness.
