I know, I know, she hightailed it to the SL, but given recent events...

(Okay, fine, I partly want her back so I can ship her with Allen Higgins. Along with half the current regulars, I mean. I'm not really picky about who Allen ends up with as long as he's happy. But more Manty/Haven marriages are always good!)


I totally forgot about her. I don't have any particular attachment to her to be honest, but in that theme Admiral Parnell making some kind of return would be quite interesting. I know we have a word of weber that he was avoiding going home because that would lead to some... interesting... questions, but with the situation with the league going south...

Interesting times.


I can speculate that both are smart enough to read the writing on the wall and get out of Dodge (Old Earth) before the collapse. I can't see them returning to Haven, even with the new government, or to the GA, although Honor for one would probably find something for them to do.

However, there are going to be lots of systems and/or sectors suddenly feeling lonely and without suitable military leadership (I mean, a BF admiral? C'mon man!! :lol: ) who might be willing to employ some proven talent...and this time, Amos and Sabrina get to choose a place or a cause worth them fighting for...

IMHO as always. YMMV.

The Grayson 'Cats has already been suggested.

I always thought Jack McBride's death was a little ambiguous. So his survival would be interesting.

The four/five lower ranking Solarian officers - apparently the only ones with any brains; be interesting to see what they get up to.

And pretty please, Houseman needs some more slaps.

Both of her own parents were physicians, and her father had reached Suchon's own rank before retiring, which meant Honor had a pretty fair notion of just how much help a good doctor could be. Suchon, on the other hand, was even more detached than Papadapolous. Doctors were specialists, not line officers in the chain of command, and the thin-faced, petulant Suchon seemed totally disinterested in anything beyond her sickbay and dispensary. Worse, she seemed to regard her responsibility for the crew's health as a sort of nagging inconvenience, and Honor found it very difficult to forgive any physician for that.

Her eyes swept past Suchon to the two officers flanking McKeon. Lieutenant Ariella Blanding, her supply officer, junior to every other officer present, looked as if she expected her captain to spring upon her at any moment, despite the fact that her department had performed flawlessly throughout. Blanding was a small woman, with a sweet, oval face and blond hair, but her eyes moved back and forth endlessly, like a mouse trying to watch too many cats.

I'd like to see the return of Lois Suchon, since Honor promised that if she ever crossed paths with her again she'd deal with her more severely. I'd like to see Suchon get hers. Her Such-on this attitude always got on my last nerve.

And I always thought that storyline would go on to flesh out more detail regarding our lovely little Ariella. Why was she so jumpy? I got the impression she was competent and sweet. Yet jumpy and withdrawn.

Al-Fanudahi, Teague, Okiku, and Tarkovsky. The first two have been my favorite Sollies for awhile. We keep getting small glimpses of what they're doing but I wouldn't turn my back on a bit more focus and detail into their actions. I'm a little nervous that now that they're more actively investigating potential Mesan involvement they might draw more negative attention from the bad guys. I'd really hate to see anything bad happen to any of them. Okiku even says, "You're going to get us all killed." I hope it's not foreshadowing and was just meant to be funny.

maybe not dead but I do expect an attempt or two on them.

have to admit i'm curious what will happen to these guys. We know the legue is going to go belly up, so will they stay to the end trying to salvage what that can or will they recognise that it can't be saved and head for say beowulf and offer what they've dug up on the MAlign for citizenship and jobs in beowulf SDF?

I've posted this before.

Lois Suchon was assigned to MARS (Manticoran Arctic Research Service) for a multi-year tour at Adamson-Prescott station at Sphinx's South Pole. What they didn't tell her it was a multi-planetary year tour. Like 4 or 5 years.
