I figured his time in NOLA had him mind whammied by the vampires so he didn't think much about contacting Liz. I still don't get why the internship was even a thing other than the book had to happen and we needed to strike while the Interview iron was still hot.
I don't remember a TON about Tom's ultimate fate beyond what causes their breakup, but I do remember being split on it. It felt very much like it came out of left field and also like someone decided it was time for Liz to get a new love interest but I don't remember exactly where in the later SVU books this happens and the later Toddles stuff was just.... yikes on bikes and trikes, and the inferior Sam is inferior.
Having never read Interview, I did not clock that, but I did find the description of his "bright bottle green eyes" extremely strange. Ha! That's actually what flagged it in my head as a Louis nod so I went to look it up. Not really sure why the felt the need to club us over the head with the creepy green eye description over and over though.
I need Steven to have gotten in on this vamp action. Seriously, where the f was he, to have missed not only this lovely adventure, but also Jessica's run-in with Jonathan during SVH? Seriously! I could overlook him not being there for the SVH one but Steve still shoulda been all up in the twins' business for this book. What gives, eldest Wakefield? Where's your sordid vampire story?
At least this ghostie stuck with the supernatural schtick, instead of half-assing it like the SVH writer(s). I will always respect the ghosties who decide fuck it, the supernatural is REAL. Even if everything else around them goes to hell, they'll get that.
Nicholas's reaction to Jessica was hysterical; I don't know if he would feel the same about Margo or somehow fall in with her. They could mind-meld at each other, haha! Margo the vampire is terrifying and I love the idea so, so much. I don't really see her keeping Nicholas around once she's figured out how to access his money, but I do love the idea of him being absolutely heartbroken at being betrayed by his true love. Cackling to myself here.
Now I'm wondering if the Theta room is mentioned in the series proper or if they just wanted to give Jess a comedic sideplot to keep her out of the way til they needed to bamboozle Nicholas.
