"I don’t know if that’s true or not, but if it is, then it’s pretty dumb that Patch doesn’t realize that Elliot’s a bad guy."
It's doubly stupid because Fitzpatrick, while answering questions for fans, told them that Patch is a complete expert on human nature. He knows the workings of the human mind inside and out, she said. So how can he fail to realize about Elliot? Are we to take from that that Patch is correct and that Elliot isn't so bad? Because HE SHOWED UP AT NORA'S HOUSE AND RATTLED HER TEETH OUT OF HER HEAD! Gah!
"But I think that I know the real reason why you’re telling Nora to not get the police involved. Because if they did show up, you wouldn’t get to show off and be the hero, and there might be a risk that they’d arrest *you* for your heinous behavior towards Nora."
Not to mention that Fitzpatrick would have to (A) skip Nora's "selfless" sacrifice scene, and (B) actually have to write in consequences for what happened.
"Of course it had a purpose. It made Patch look so *cool!* Don’t you wish that your boyfriend could just brainwash people to do whatever he wanted so that he could steal hot cars with ease and take you for a ride? So dreamy. *sarcasm*"
And a boyfriend who has guys trying to kill him/vandalize his stuff. Sounds absolutely fantastic. *rolls eyes*
"*sighs* Winki_Pop and I have already gone over how Fitzpatrick’s mentality of Mediterranean/tan skin = mysterious/sinister is stupid, stereotypical, and offensive, so I won’t bother."
If Fitzpatrick had put any consistency in it, I'd think that she was trying to go for the idea that all the angels have some Mediterranean/ Middle Eastern look because that was the area of the world where the monotheistic religions came about. (She already did follow the Biblical lore that stated that Nephilim and angels are unusually tall) Given that Patch is the only one like that though, I think it's safe to say that she thinks that dark skin adds to a bad-boy image, along with Levis, backwards baseball caps, and playing pool.
You know, I wonder if Heathcliff was at least partially some sort of inspiration? Fitzpatrick clearly wants to dig deep to get prime bad boy/psychopath material, after all.
