An Appreciation of Ellery
Ennis' darlin' charmin' man
Jack may have been Ennis’ soulmate but as we know for a whole range of reasons he and Ennis could never find a happy life together. While it may sound unromantic to say it, soulmates do not always make for the best partners on a daily basis. The feelings generated can be too unsettlingly intense or certain personality dynamics or life circumstances can simply militate against it. Soulmates can be emotionally exhausting! All these factors came into play with Jack and Ennis.
Ellery’s personality and life circumstances made all the difference. Here is an out and proud gay man with community standing and a powerful sponsor in the sheriff. He is settled with his own house and independent financial resources and most importantly does not have the baggage of wife and kids. In addition, Ellery has Jack’s loving personality and emotional maturity.
As well, Ellery is drop dead gorgeous and brings out new aspects of Ennis’ character – his domestic as well as his sexual prowess in terms of some interesting experimentation! His challenging personality also brings out Ennis’ playfulness as well as changed perspectives.
Ellery has the confidence to take command of Ennis which is just what Ennis needs. He has the resources and life circumstance to enable Ennis to feel safe. He enhances Ennis' self confidence and has done wonders for his self esteem.
Such a man is just what Ennis needed if he was ever going to get a life.

Oh magicmountain, that was just gorgeous. Thank You. :)
I agree with everything you said about Ellery.....I know we all go on about him, but he really is just the most amazing character, and I just marvel at Louise's ability to make him so human, so loving, so real.

Louise, that was just beautiful. I loved the title. And I love how Ellery treats Ennis, with such care and consideration, knowing how Ennis is feeling inside. And his declaration of love was just lovely, very emotional and beautifully expressed. I felt very emotional reading that.
Thank you Louise, for giving us that chapter after your busy day and I hope the interview went well. :)
