I think I agree completely!  :)  I've never understood why many people believe that the "submissive streak that manifests itself in sexual tastes" as you so eloquently put it, is a sign of "weakness" in a person.   :-\   That's never made any sense to me.  And I also don't believe you can necessarily tell what kind of sexual tastes a person has just by viewing their public persona.

Now, as for Chapter 25....

Yeah, I liked the "Colson shower" line, too!  And Ellery is incorrigible, isn't he?   :laugh:  This was a great example of Ellery "assuming the upper hand" in classic Ellery style!  Great stuff, Louise.  Thanks!

Ellery is being his incorrigible best, considering he has a limited amount of crime to deal with.  But what crime he DOES have, he is certainly taking over the investigation now! 

And I'm glad he is perceived as just as ornery and pushy as I portray him, because that is the whole point of Ellery's personality!

Ellery manages to get Colson to take another chance...!

Win the trifecta?   :laugh: :laugh:  Oh, that's classic!   And, yes, the paso finos - I'd almost forgotten the purpose of their trip (or, at least, Wes's purpose for their trip  ;) ) !

I have to admit that I'm looking forward to Ellery meeting with the detective.  We'll be seeing some more "classic" Ellery, I'm sure!  Thanks, Louise!

louisev:
another chapter!  Jeremy has something on his mind.
