re: Fitz' feelings about fathering Dutiful
About Fitz' feelings towards the fact that he is Dutiful's "biological" father. This is just my opinion, and I'd like to hear others before we make changes to the article or decide not to. It is my understanding that the lack of comments about this subject by Fitz doesn't mean it wasn't terribly important to him. I got the impression that he was just being a) very, very careful not to let the truth out and therefore not committing it on paper and b) feeling quite uncomfortable about what had happened and thus not thinking much about it (we've seen this defense mechanism in him before, haven't we?). He says to the Fool (in FE) that he didn't understand/realize what was going to happen when he promised Verity that he could use his body and stresses that it is very important that noone else should find out the truth. I can't give you direct quotes because my re-reading is still under way, but I think there are several times in the TM trilogy where Fitz is sad over the fact that he can never be the real father for *either* of his real children, "only" Hap. --[[User:Mervi|Mervi]] 00:32, 26 April 2006 (EEST)
