Ironically, getting an alien symbiont that's going to be whispering in his ear to make more plants and convert more Hosts may actually do wonders for Rugby Boy's autonomy in Book Three. I love Rugby Boy and Snake to death, but looking back over Book Two, it's obvious that Rugby Boy hasn't had a crazy amount of personal agency in the story- he's been Snake's plus-one the whole book, doing things because Snake either tells him to or uses his psychic control over Rugby Boy to make him do it. He was very much the prince/beau-in-distress to Snake's knight-in-leather-armor. And those tropes almost necessarily force the character who is being protected into a passive role in the narrative. But now that Rugby Boy has fallen prey to the very peril that Snake wanted to protect him from- by Snake's own hand, in an ironic twist- well, there's nothing keeping Rugby Boy playing beau-in-distress anymore. Sure, all those loads Rugby Boy took will probably still give Snake some influence over Rugby Boy, but now they are equals; Snake can't lean on his psychic influence over Rugby Boy to control him anymore. I look forward to Rugby Boy being more assertive in Book Three.

> I’m in love with Rugby Boy now more than ever. > Thank Dog! I was worried about your reaction. > I would have blown him on my knees the second he ripped off the cell door > That was my favorite moment, too. > And the attitude he’s approaching the Great One with… > Yeah, it's nice to see Rugby Boy with his game face on. He's all lovey-dovey bottom boy, but we forget that he's a professional rugby player, so he's no softie. I have an interesting anecdote to share about this moment after you read 21.

"On tonight's episode of Locked Up Abroad, a bi-lingual French Canadian rugby boy almost pretending he wasn’t locked in a jail cell in a foreign country fucking an alien flower. But first, a message from our sponsor 1-800-FLOWERS....." I'm in love with Rugby Boy now more than ever. Losing his humanity with defiance and anger. I would have blown him on my knees the second he ripped off the cell door. And never being a real fan of Snake, I was glad to see Rugby Boy knock him to the ground. And the attitude he's approaching the Great One with....I trust you in whatever plan you have my Rugby Boy!!! I think I'll take the hour and a half drive up to the border and stare northward pining for my Rugby Boy.

Didn't have a chance to read this chapter until now. Wow. That was great. I'm still hard.

I'm glad this moment happened for the reveal. > And then Devin comes in at the end; so how exactly with the Great One heal him and what will the Great One make him into? > Honestly, I have no idea -- I'm glad Devin got a reward tho.

Another little bit I love, that I neglected to comment on- the "*oui* to "we" line was such a great little touch, I loved the pun. So Devin, Joe, Snake, Rugby Boy, the Sheriff, and the Deputy alone in a room together... and the Super-Soldiers on their way to take out Bowden and maybe Murdock, and hopefully save Tony... one more week to find out how this all ends...

Wow, Rugby Boy comes to us as a full character now. Standing up to Snake and revealing that he understood all the while and made him work to speak French. And then Devin comes in at the end; so how exactly with the Great One heal him and what will the Great One make him into?
