MooskiNet:
It wasn't the condescending/rude bit that made me wonder - I like House, too - but the bit about one-dimensionality. It's all good, though. I guess I've seen too many instances of people having nothing to say except how much something sucks, and I brought that to the table with me.
My bad; thanks for the answer.
allanjm:
"Emma" probably won't be to strict about professionalism.
Did they ever get the copier room lock fixed?
Poll Question: Pumice is a type of rock that will float on water. (At least until it absorbs water.)
ReindeerFlotilla:
A character doesn't actually need more than one dimension. The constant advice to writers about that is just good practice. Jeph generally gets good enough mileage out of his characters without add dimensions. Possibly because he knows the depths of them, maybe some other reason. People get used to thinking of 1D as a criticism. But it is as important to know when to stay on the surface as it is to know when to go deep.
Is it cold in here?:
Claire has subsurface complexities.
She is aware enough of other people to have figured out that Marten was a safe person to trust with a dangerous secret. I was taking that as proof she was a shrewd judge of character until she told Emily.
Zebediah:
She hesitated before telling Emily, though. And then she decided that if Emily was going to be her friend, she ought to tell her. Granted it was a risk, but Emily's reaction vindicated that trust - and Emily hasn't spilled the beans either.
