Dang, if that were all true, this would be so much better! Especially:
"Damien's lack of interest in female *ahem* companionship, in this version, causes a problem because, as a Designated Protector, vampyre society is worried that he will lack the necessary devotion to whatever Lady he's supposed to protect. His flamboyancy is shown to be a reaction to his physical frailty and the hell he catches about it, so he just prefers to retreat to things that aren't so physically demanding. He's actively practicing in-yo-face defiance at all times because he gave up. (PERSONALITY. IT IS NOT HARD.)"
