Skyler - the new Syndril!

He would watch them like a hawk. They be lucky if they could get one kiss. LOL.

[BekahGirl421]

true, but if they were bound together... well like gregori would risk turning a male into a vampire becuase he didn't want his daughters with them..... I mean i understand but that is selfish and i cant see him doing that especially from his own daughters

[koschei]

I can still remember the first time I had a date who picked me up from home. My dad told him to keep his hands in his pockets at all times unless he wanted to lose his favourite part of his anatomy - my date never even looked at me, never mind try and kiss/touch me

Yeah, lifemates of the GGs'(Gregori's girls) must nave a deathwish to ever upset them - they'd face the wrath of their mummuy and daddy, as well as Uncle Rafael, Aunt Destiny, Natalya...they would definitely adore them to put up with the in-laws ;D

[SillyFyre]

mmm..you know i never thought of it that way. OH those poor boys...LOL

;DSince we're all on the subject of Skyler's increasing powers I have something to input. Since she is a rare combination of human, Carpathian, mage, and God knows what else, she is going to get alot of training from the other women to learn to control her powerful gifts, and because of that, I know Dimitri's going to have a little firecracker to deal with when it's time to claim her. ;D Think about it: Francesca is teaching her healing, weaving safeguards into the quilts and stain glass, along with the basic Carpathian skills; Natalya can teach her magic; from Syndil she can learn how to heal the earth; since Raven's also an empath she could help Skyler in that area; and I'm sure her new big sister Colby, will teach some of the psychic skills she's mastered. ;D ;D Also, I'm sure that Aunt Tempest, Aunt Jaxon, Aunt Savannah, Aunt Desari, Destiny, MaryAnn, Corinne, Sara, Shea, and all the other women will be happy to give Skyler a few helpful lessons on "taming your lifemate". LOL Poor D's not gonna know what hit him! ;D ;D ;D ;D

I agree that Skyler and Dimitri's story is going to be VERY interesting.

I did want to say one thing about the healing of emotional scars, Gregori told Aidan in Dark Gold that he is not only a good physical healer, but a good "healer of the mind" as well, and even did so in some small measure for Gregori which is what prompted Gregori's comment.

All powerful Carpathians have the ability to dull memories, but more importantly and more useful is that I believe some Carpathians have the ability to help another deal with the emotional distress in a healthier/better/faster way. That seems to be what Aidan did for Gregori.

Perhaps there is someone who could help Syndil, if not Barack finding the way? And if Dimitri can't find a way to help Skylar, perhaps Tempest and Syndil can since they have similar trauma in their pasts? I can't wait to find out either way...

Certain Carpathians being able to heal emotional scars? That is something to think over lightingblue. I too, remeber that talk between Aidan and Gregori, and how Gregori gained a measure of peace from it, and there's also Desari, whose beautiful voice has the power to comfort and sooth the spirit. In DC, Julian suggested that he and Desari go find Dimitri, and let him hear her voice, so that I could help him deal with the pain of Skyler's past that he was dealing with.

I think certain Carpatians can feel the pain of others and help them through it better than others, but I don't think they can fully take it away. In my opinion, emotional scars are things that can only be dealt with love and time. Look at Syndil, Skyler, and Destiny. The pain of what is happened to them still effects them at certain degrees, but day by day, they grow stronger, and they have many people in their lives that love and accept them for who they are, past and all. They may never totally be healed, but they're learning that they can live whole lives and find happiness in them. We can't total erase the pain of the past, but we can find the inner strenght to forge a new future

[darkmaid]

poor Skyler. I felt very sorry for her but I think that Dimitri can help her. She only needs time for leave her past back and begin a new life with his lifemate

[lilybud202cr]

I think Dimitri will work with her and cherish her even if all the Carpathian women give her pointers and help her develope her power. And we mustn't forget Daddy Gabriel will be showing his little girl a thing or two!
