Helen and Sophos sitting in a tree...
Oct. 31st, 2009 09:26 pmI got a laugh out of
magicsandwiches ' comment about Sophos and his scruffy unshaven look on the cover of A Conspiracy of Kings:
Like it or not, the beard fits with his current situation.
But he has to shave it before his big make-out scene with Helen.
And it started me thinking about Sophos and Helen, and their relationship so far. In The Thief, Sophos--who was, what? 13? 14?--had a cute little crush on Helen and she thought he was sweet, with potential. In QofA, I don't think Helen mentions much about the missing Sophos, does she? Then in KofA she says they exchanged letters and that she would have married him. Gen says he thinks Helen would have been happy with Sophos, who is kind.
Hardly a declaration of love.
We know Megan isn't going to write Helen and Sophos into a "fireside story." There has to be conflict, though a make-outy scene would be cool. And Helen is the last Eddis. What do you think will happen?
