still trying to write a fic about Mick, Coraline, and the pool at the party house in 1953. (Grace, I swear to Bob it'll be finished one of these
years days...)
The theories will have to wait until I have more time. (How dare RL intrude on ML time?

Sweetie, no worries... I'll be here to read it whenever it's done.
And OF COURSE Mick and Cora had some WONDERFUL times!! They had some good times in Fleur de Lis, right before our eyes, in fact.
She showed herself to be fun, light-hearted, intelligent, artistic, creative, verrrry self-confident, and quite sexy and attractive.
So whatever her particular brand of crazy was, and we saw that too with the whole BabyBeth incident and the whole setting-up-the-fire-in-the-hotel-murder incident, she obviously could also be a joy to be around.
And I think in part that THAT was what drove Mick so crazy around her. One day she's fun-loving, delightful, thoughtful, rational, sexy... the next day she's breaking 3 kinds of Federal laws and all the Commandments. And he was enough of a personal mess to stick around for most of those 33 years. Which is part of what makes him interesting.
