Thanks! I was glad enough to hate him in the first movie, but I was a lot more sympathetic to him in the second one. And for being bald, he was pretty darn attractive. =)

I pretty much know exactly where this story's going, it's the writing of it that caused problems-- I didn't know a thing about the way streets are laid out in Rome, and writing action is difficult for me, which made this chapter doubly irritating to work on. The next bit should come quicker!
