- How was Vegas then? lol I wanna go to Vegas!! I'm old enough to gamble now... lol I hear from my brother that it's pretty fun there. He even won like $300 off of penny slots.
Oh Vegas was awesome!! It was like a party 24/7! Seriously, it's like a party atmosphere. People are walking around with drinks in hand...there's shows and clubs...every casino is so different, like a work of art. I stayed at Caesar's Palace. It was really good. And a great location on the Strip, too. I didn't really win anything in either slots or at the tables. I mean, I won a little and then lost it again. I didn't go down there to get rich off of gambling. I went down there to have fun. - Spoiler:

- It was in SD, but we still don't know what Nyx showed him of his death, or if it'll even happen since the things that Nyx shows you happen when you go crazy trying to prevent them from happening or something like that (doesn't remember lol). Would Carter come to retrieve Erik if he were to die? Does Carter even do that? I remember from SB that they know each other, so I guess it's a possibility.
That's right...I remember now. I don't know if Carter would retrieve Erik...maybe?? That's up to RM, I guess. Or if Carter is not the one to retrieve him, then what I can see is Carter coming to console Georgina. - Quote :
- The girl in the photo was Dante's sister, and Erik was in love with her. That's why there was a picture of her in his house. But the part with Dante was folded over, because he really hated him after he killed her.
Ah yes. OK. I also know Erik had issues with Dante because Dante wanted to steer their business into a more 'con-job' vein. - Quote :
- RM said in the BBB Q&A that Lilith might have a cameo. She also says that we'll definitely be seeing more of Kayla too. I've been curious about her abilities. Maybe Erik will play a role in helping her develop them.
I know that in one of the flashbacks probably in the first book, Georgie talks about when she first became a succubus. That she was visited by Lilith. And I'm definitely looking forward to see what happens with Kayla. I really hope her powers come out a bit more and we see her, even at her young age be able to do something 'monumental' with her power. That and I hope she says something to Maddie about not wanting her there and only wanting Georgina because Georgina is magic. LOL! God I effin' hate Maddie! Maybe she can be offed toward the end?

| My fave part of ch. 1 in SS Cody: "How is that possible? I am a vampire I should be exactly what she wants."(' ') I was laughing so hard when I read that scene.(' ') - Spoiler:
Okay first things first Carter and his mysterious Angel business. through out the books it's stressed that it's odd for him an angel to be hanging out with georgies gang and Jerome. Then towards the end of the last one they make some comment about making deals with god. Carter is always telling Georgie that there's still hope for her. That got me wondering if maybe carters job is to seek souls out for redemption. I'm wondering if all that might come into play at the end allowing Georgina to fulfill her dream. Niphon made some screw up in the contract or that theory about someone else that knew her made a contract with another imp. " [i]You sold your soul and took on standard succubus servitude in exchange for every mortal you knew forgetting who you were" So maybe there was someone that knew of her that she didn't know. Thus leaving a loop hole in the contract. Does that make sense? That could have been an easy subtle mistake to make. Erik, I first of all want to know what Nyx showed him. I'd like to think that when he does pass on he leaves his store to Georgie. Maybe with her new move she can transfer to Eriks store and work for him, and take care of him during his last few days. Then she can get away from Seth and Maddie. Honestly if I was Georgina I would just fire Maddie after all she has the authority, and I don't think Doug will mind getting rid of her either. I think in order for Seth the Mega hypocrite has to come clean to Maddie to untarnish his super nova soul. I don't necessarily like Maddie nor do I hate her. I have the feeling that if she knew the truth about georgina and Seths prior relationship nothing would have ever happened. The only true person to blame for that entire Seth and Maddie situation in Seth. He knew better, everyone else was a victim. I was honestly expecting Maddie to walk in on them having sex a few times in SH. I like the idea of her finding Georgina's pictures. I don't think Seth will go through with the wedding, only because he believes in honesty and communication in a relationship so what he and Maddie have had from the very beginning started on lies and deceit. I think Roman can't necessarily kill georgina but is still sour about that situation, and might open his big mouth about the affair just to throw a wrench in Georgina's life. I do wonder if he still has loving feelings for Georgina because when he was following her he could have let the guy rape her but he saved her. And when nannette attacked her he called her "Love" a few times. I like Roman and I've felt sorry for him since the first book, he keeps getting stuck with raw deal after raw deal. I wondered what would have happened if he would have told her he'll give everything up for her, before she made the phone call." Seth and Georgina weren't too close then and If that never happened I think Georgina could have fallin in love with Roman. I know somewhere they were saying how Nyx's premonitions were true but never the way you thought they would be. Everyone keeps thinking Seth is the guy, but what if that is the twist in the dream? There are still plenty more books to go and anything can happen? Carter: Well I agree that his feelings for georgina are more than they are supposed to be. Like the note that Roman wrote, Even an Angel would fall for you. (Or something like that) I definitely don't want to see Carter fall, maybe he could make a deal with god or something. I don't know, but I love Carter.

| Jill! I'm glad you found us in this thread! - Quote :
- Cody: "How is that possible? I am a vampire I should be exactly what she wants.
Cody's adorable! I liked that, too. - Spoiler:
But what I liked more was when Georgie told *hurlGodIhatethatbeyotch!*Maddie that both of her dress choices were ugly. If it gets to the point that there is a wedding, like dimkaluv said, I hope she ends up with a dress that makes her look both short AND fat! LOL! Better still if it doesn't get to that point. But if it does, I also hope that Maddie is jilted, and then leaves their lives forever. I don't care where she ends up, Siberia, Timbuktu, or even dead...don't care. I just want her away from Georgie and Seth. - Quote :
- That got me wondering if maybe carters job is to seek souls out for redemption. I'm wondering if all that might come into play at the end allowing Georgina to fulfill her dream.
That's good thinking! Plus, I think Carter and Jerome were friends before Jerome fell. As you recall it was revealed in the first book, I think, that Jerome used to be an angel, but he fell (in more ways than one) for a mortal woman, the mother of Roman and his sister. (Why do I want to call her Helen?) I don't know if he can redeem Jerome. Jerome 'broke the rules' so to speak. But Georgie (and the others for that matter) sold their souls. They didn't really die and go to heaven to break any rules there, does that make sense? So maybe they are still redeemable? I did love that exchange at the end of SB between Georgie and Carter. It actually moved me to tears. - Quote :
- So maybe there was someone that knew of her that she didn't know. Thus leaving a loop hole in the contract. Does that make sense? That could have been an easy subtle mistake to make.
YES! That makes perfect sense! And it would explain why Niphon was freaking out. If it's ever discovered there's something wrong with the contract, not only would Georgie be released, but Niphon could end up getting smote! LOL! - Quote :
- Erik, I first of all want to know what Nyx showed him. I'd like to think that when he does pass on he leaves his store to Georgie. Maybe with her new move she can transfer to Eriks store and work for him, and take care of him during his last few days. Then she can get away from Seth and Maddie.
I do too! I wonder if RM will ever 'show' us? I don't know that Georgie will quit Emerald City bookstore. And I think everyone who has read this series thus far knows that Georgina can't keep away from Seth and vice versa. Seth is 100% addicted to Georgie. Sure, he went and proposed to that cow Maddie, but I'm certain even Stevie Wonder could see that it's insincere/'fake'. But I'm all in favour of her looking after Erik in his last days. I really do feel in my soul that Erik is going to pass away in either SS or the book after that. - Quote :

I was honestly expecting Maddie to walk in on them having sex a few times in SH. I like the idea of her finding Georgina's pictures.
Not a bad idea. But on what grounds would Georgie fire Maddie? She practically promoted her to assistant manager! UGH! And by firing her, wouldn't that drive Seth to 'comfort' her? I dunno. But I will agree that while I like Seth and think he belongs with Georgie, he is a hypocrite. To save his soul, he does have to come clean...but I don't want him to. I think it's way more hurtful to Maddie to have her catch Seth and Georgie together. In a way I was HOPING for her to catch them. And yes, I think it's gotta happen that she finds the pics of Georgina. Absolutely. Even better would be also finding evidence that he 'enjoyed' the photos, if you know what I mean. *wink* I guess you are right that Maddie would never have touched Seth if she knew he was in a relationship especially with Georgie. And that's partially G & S's own faults too...Why the hell didn't they ever 'go public'? I don't get that. - Quote :

You're right about the wedding. But could you explain more about what you were saying about Roman? I don't fully understand. What is he sour about? (And no, I'm not ready to re-read the books yet. Those books got me all wound up and stressed!) - Quote :

Seth and Georgina weren't too close then and If that never happened I think Georgina could have fallin in love with Roman.
Why don't I remember a guy going to rape Georgina? You have an interesting take on Roman. Towards the end of SB, he creeped me out. He seemed like a stalker. And having been stalked before, I didn't like Roman after that point. I was frankly shocked to see him back and to help her but still threaten that he wanted to kill her. I didn't like that. And I so don't understand why Georgina would ever want to take him under her roof knowing that!! Ain't no way in hell I'd help out my stalker-ex that way. Hell I wouldn't even piss on him if he were on fire. - Quote :

You've got that right! RM is a 'mistress of surprise'! Only she knows what's in store for us in the next 2 or 3 books.
Here's a group question, not too spoilery I don't think. Now we all know that RM has planned an end to this series, either 6 or 7 books. The question is, do you think she should do spin-offs of the characters in Succubus like she is planning to do for VA? OR just leave it? Would you buy spin-off series? I know I would. I love these characters. The only spin-off series I WOULDN'T get is a Maddie centred one. Ick. No! | |

| Good god. If there was a spin off about Maddie... That would be the shortest, most terrible series ever. lol "Today I went shopping. I couldn't find anything that fit my fat ass. I think I'll go write a feminist article about how evil the fashion industry is. The end."
However, if it was a spin off on....say, the vampires? Hellz yeah I'm game.
However, I don't think RM will do a spin off on Succubus, though it's a damned shame. lol But after Succubus, I sure as hell would love to see another series as good as Georgina's from her. Maybe this time it could be from a male perspective though. RM writes the most awesomest guys. lol | |

| Ballroomdancer13 That's exactly what I was thinking, I mean Carter has to have some divine mysterious mission and well the group he hangs out with, Peter, Cody, Hugh, Georgina, And Jerome are all demons yes but they all have good hearts and do their best to walk a straight path, as much as possible. What I meant by that is well we all know Georgina is going to do her best to stay out of the way from Seth and Maddie. She is going to help Maddie plan out the wedding. I think Georgina's intentions will be good and by removing herself from temptations she can go help Erik run his store and take care of him. Not permanently. She is going to try and do the right thing by Seth and Maddie.Just because that's the kind of person she is. She has to make up for her giult as well. About firing Maddie I was just saying if I were put in that position I probably would. Or I'd at least delegate the crappiest jobs to her and make work miserable for her. I know Georgina's character wouldn't do that, that is just something I would do. lol. (' ') And yes I know what you mean about finding Seth enjoyed the pictures. You meant publishing them right? J/K Yeah they might be a little sticky. What I meant was Roman still wants to kill Georgina but he made a deal with Jerome so now he can't. He traded that amongst other things for amnesty. He is still mad at Georgina, and knows about her and Seth/s affair while she was in stasis. Roman could be the one that outs their sexcapades to Maddie, just to get back at Georgina. It would cause strife in her life and she would lose Maddie as a friend. Yeah when Georgina was investigating who could have summoned Jerome a guy was trying to rape her and Roman set the gas stove on fire, to protect her. Nothing serious would have happened like she obviously wouldn't have been killed, just taken advantage of. Roman could have just stood by and let that happen but instead, he got her out of the situation. That's why a part of me still think he does care for her in his own twisted way. Yeah I agree I don't know why she let him move in with her, she could have put her foot down in the beginning. She kept saying she didn't want to bother Jerome at the time. What ever I would have just kicked Roman's freeloading ass out to the curb. I hope there's 3 more books, I don't want the series to end. I don't know if I'd need anyone else point of view. But if Rm went that route I would deffinately read them. | |

BWAHAHAHA!!!! That's a good one! Maddie wouldn't need a series, just a Twitter post. - Quote :
- However, if it was a spin off on....say, the vampires? Hellz yeah I'm game.
TOTALLY!!! I love those guys! I'd love to know what it's like at their apartment/house. And I'd love to see how the 'lessons' go between Peter and Cody. Peter is Cody's mentor after all. But I wouldn't say no to a book or two about Hugh. I can only imagine a book about Hugh would be filled with sex. LOL! - Quote :
- Maybe this time it could be from a male perspective though. RM writes the most awesomest guys. lol
I agree. I think that would be neat. Not that I have a problem with female protagonists or written from a woman's POV. But a good number of the books I have read lately are like that, and I'd like a bit of a change...sort of like eating only chocolate ice cream, sometimes you want a different flavour. - Quote :
- are all demons yes but they all have good hearts and do their best to walk a straight path, as much as possible.
Well....yes and no. I mean, you look at Hugh, and at the risk of this being a spoiler (Sorry to anyone not read this yet!) when he signed up Georgina for the auction. He didn't do it for the sake of raising money for children. He did it to get into the organizer's panties. Is Hugh purely evil? No. If he were, he wouldn't have helped to heal Georgina after she was attacked by Nanette. The vampires? I really don't know. Other than throwing them in for comedy relief, she hasn't done much with them. We don't really know what their 'mission' or 'job' is. For instance, as an imp, Hugh has to try to get people to sell their souls. Georgie has to corrupt them with sex and to take their life-force. But what do Peter and Cody do other than feed? - Quote :

I still don't think the wedding will happen. I really don't. (Actually it's more like hoping against hope that it doesn't). I know Georgie wouldn't intentionally hurt Maddie, but in a way I wish she would. I'm thinking that Georgie wouldn't even have to do anything to interfere. I think Seth will screw up their future wedding...or Maddie will discover the affair on her own. IMO, that's way more hurtful. I think Maddie is weak and she will run when she discovers the photos or other evidence of the relationship with GK. - Quote :

You're on the right track by making Maddie's life hell at work. THAT is the best way to get rid of her. But then again, she'd only go whining to Seth. I'm with you...I'd do that to her for sure. Make her go clean the toilets, or muck out behind the coffee counter. LOL! - Quote :

Right..OK. Now you talk about Roman outing Seth and Georgina as if it's a bad thing! LOL! I think in a way it would be a great thing! It would ruin Maddie and Seth! HOORAY! And losing Maddie as a friend? Pfft...no big loss there! - Quote :

I was just talking about how Georgina only wants to drain life from assholes and doesn't like using innocent men. (usually). Hugh has his obligations but still sympathizes with the others, and their decisions. I know in one of the books it said that unlike other vampires Peter and Cody don't kill people when they feed. Carter knows and understands that they all still have their hellish duties to carry out, but I think Carter also realizes that this group of tries to be good as much as they possibly can. I was basically saying how Georgie and her friends are more unconventional. I also agree that Carter and Jerome must have been good friends before Jerome fell. | |

| So last nigh laying in bed for some reason I was thinking about one of my fav. movies "10 things I hate about you" and a certain song kept playing through my head and all I could think about was the Succubus books. If ever there were a theme song for these books. I stil have the song stuck in my head.
*even angels fall*
you've found hope you've found faith found how fast she could take it away found true love lost your heart now you dont know who you are
she made it easy, made it free made you hurt till you couldn't see sometimes it stops sometimes it flows but baby, that is how love goes
CHORUS you will fly and you will crawl god knows even angels fall no such thing as you "lost it all" god knows even angels fall
its a secret that no one tells one day its heaven one day its hell its no fairy tale, take it from me thats the way its supposed to be
CHORUS
you'll laugh you'll cry, no one knows why but, oh the thrill of it all your on the ride, you might as well open your eyes...
CHORUS
even angles fall...even angels fall... | |

I know that WAS the case with Georgina in the first book...but then I think Jerome made her go after the good men because it was sorta like NOT doing her job properly. - Quote :

Argh! I will re-read these books. But I will do it closer to when Succubus Shadows comes out. | |

| It's too long of a wait, whatever the date may be! LOL!
To keep this discussion going... Would you want this series made into a film?
I know I wouldn't. I like the pictures I create in my head...and movies tend to cut so much from the books. That was one reason while I loved the eye-candy of Twilight, I was disappointed that so much was cut from the book, and stuff that was in the movie seemed a bit of a misinterpretation...and then there was stuff added in that wasn't in the story at all. I would hate to see that happen to the GK/Succubus series. That and I don't think they could ever find anyone as sassy as Georgina to portray her accurately in a movie. | |

| Well, I definitely wouldn't want the succubus series made into a movie. But I wouldn't mind if it was made into a mini tv series!! Each season would be only a couple episodes long, that way they can fit each book into a season and wouldn't have to cut anything. And I know that Showtime and HBO do mature content all the time (Dexter, True Blood). I also don't think a succubus mini series would have any trouble with getting an audience either. But Fox tv bought the rights for Succubus Blues so who knows what'll happen with it. | |

It really is too bad that FOX bought the rights. Because even though I feel uneasy about seeing such a wonderful series of books interpreted on film (of any kind), a 'higher quality' network like Showtime or HBO could probably do it justice. I know I just LOVE Dexter!! That is a great program with high quality everything. - Quote :

I find that a *little* bit difficult to believe. Out of all the mainstream stations, FOX has a reputation for being the raciest. I remember years ago that they had controversy over the kinds of programs and especially WHEN the shows were being aired. I may be dating myself here but "Married...With Children" was one of those shows. It wasn't exactly graphic, except for a couple of episodes where you see a half-naked woman from the back. The humour could only be branded as 'toilet humour'...the jokes were sexually or bodily function based. To say the show was vulgar is an understatement! But while FOX may have to tone down the graphic content, they certainly would NOT tone down the, how do you say it? For instance, the dialogue likely wouldn't be that toned down. I don't know what the rules are anymore on TV. I have seen/heard some swear words used, but maybe not "the F-bomb". I don't know what word I'm looking for there. Hopefully you understand what I mean. What if they made the series animated? We all saw the comic posted here (on page 2 of this thread I believe). Make it adult, show it at an adult time, or hell, even 'direct to DVD'? I have watched many an 'anime' film/series and it was quite adult. Devil Hunter Yohko had *some* adult content. Even Sailor Moon had some, too. Lupin the Third is a favourite, as well - the concept is adult in nature and the graphics were, too. I just hope that if this series ever does make it to a screen format, that they keep to the books and don't screw it around like the CW has done with Vampire Diaries. | |
