Heylo. Firstly, thanx for making the greatest show ever aired. I don't
know how many others have told you that, but it's TRUE!!! (Just needed to
pound that into your head a little more.)Okee.. down to business.

1. As an AZ native, I just gotta wonder some stuff.

a) How far out of Flagstaff was the carving supposed to be located? The turrain here doesn't change for about 15 miles or so.

b) Was Beth's university's name written as University of Flagstaff or were you going to use one of the REAL colleges? (Northern Arizona University would be my guess, since they're the only ones with a pool)

c) Are there any real buildings used in this episode? Beth's apartment complex, fro example? (I know Pulliam Airport is real, as are the San Francisco Peaks in the background.)

d) Who transplanted all the cactus to northern AZ? (No, we don't have saguaros that far north.) Okay. Just wondering about that. :)

2. I've noticed that Gabriel looks a lot like Coldstone. (well now, THERE's a slaughtered quote) Is he Othello and Desdemona's biological child?

3. Are there any other blood-relation gargs I should be keeping an eye out for? (Ophelia's relations maybe?)

4. The series focusses on a lot of tricksters.. Puck, of course,and Anansi, Coyote, Raven.. any specific reason? Were they easier to develop plots with or what? Is it an in joke??

5. I've heard several versions about the "movie." Will it deal with Clan Manhattan, or some other gargoyle/s? And when will it be in theaters?? Do tell!!

1a. I don't know. Fifteen miles?

1b. I don't remember.

1c. I think the pool area was taken from photo reference. But I'm not sure.

1d. The background painters, I guess.

2. Yes.

3. I think I've mentioned Hudson and Broadway, but I wouldn't
read too much into it. Broadway's childhood was spent being raised by
the entire clan. Hudson is but one of his parents.

4. I like Tricksters. They certainly aren't easy to write, but
they are rewarding.

5. I have no new info about the movie. Sorry.
