Default Thief of Time - Susan <3 Lobsang? - 06-29-2006, 21:45

Well, at the end of the Thief of Time, Lobsang shows up in Susans classroom, and earlier someone, think it was Death, asked Susan about possible romantic relations with her and Lobsang...
So, does Susan love Lobsang (or vice-versa)?

I've just finished re-reading it - it's Myria/Unity who asks the question - I'm still wondering who Susan might end up with - at the end of Soul Music it looked like it might be Imp Y Celyn (aka Bud of the Holly) - but that doesn't seem to have happened - who knows what the Marthter has in store - well, obviously the Marthter, but who else? Lobsang/Jeremy is at least another anthropomorphic personification, which Susan is when she's standing in for Grandfather - it might work!

Well, I guess we'll never get to know in detail what happened in the cupboard to make it a "perfect moment", right? Maybe a perfect moment to them is paying a deck of cards, who knows...

In response to the title of this thread:
Yes, one Susan should be smaller than 3 Lobsang.

It's less than, is Susan less than 3 Lobsang? Something we should all think about for a long time. 8)

You are of course completely right.

The question becomes much harder to answer...

But Lobsang is Time, right ? so Susan is less than 3 Times... 3 times what ? **scratches head** Oh why do I even bother ? It's Friday. Maths and logic don't exist on Fridays.

But on the actual content, well... with both their superpowers and a stationery cupboard, they could have lived a happy lifetime together and still be back before the bell went... Who knows !

If you squint, &lt;3 looks kind of like a sideways heart.

I was asking myself, too. A heart in need of a good surgeon.

i think that Susan and Lobsang will get together once Susan makes up her mind. i think shes rather reluctent to have a relsonship espasly with Time. i think susan just had a school girls crush on Imp y Celyn. i can see susan geting marred but to who?

Nanny Ogg must still have some unmarried sons - Shawn, perhaps - marrying Susan off to one of them could prove interesting - given Susan's character combined with the way Nanny treats daughters-in-law, this could produce some truly amazing fireworks!

For some reason I cant immagine Susan Ogg. Ogg just dosnt... work for her.
And somehow I think Nanny Ogg would give her a bit more respect.
