I heard something about his son(s) coming into it ages ago, around when he first came into it. And I know he mentioned them/him to Natasha at one point. But I can't see anything about it now, although I did find an article about how his dad's meant to be coming in. So I don't know now. Maybe they've changed their minds about the son(s). Hmm.
on a related note, I am planning to work on fic for you next week; I have not forgotten it, I promise!
Thank you, IT IS VERY GOOD OF YOU. I didn't want to mention it, because I feel a bit pressured sometimes when I'm meant to be writing fic and people mention it. Especially given the problems you've been having with your fic files (which sounded awful, dude). BUT I'M VERY MUCH LOOKING FORWARD TO IT. VERY MUCH.
It depends how much comes out about his involvement full stop really, and how it comes out. If people find out about how he blackmailed her, it might not look good, even though it didn't happen exactly like that, really. And the fact that he came back and gave Natasha the money back ought to count for something. I would hope that if Natasha does try to set him up, things like the fact that he was showing people round the grounds when she'd forbidden him to, and her having a massive freak-out about it in front of the other guy (leading to her having to tell Nathan) might help him out, if the writers chose to remember/use that. Or something like that. A lot of the evidence is going to point to Natasha in the end, probably. Hopefully. Or she'll finally decide to just come clean, either to the police or somebody else. Although she'll kind of need to protect Nathan up to a point for him not to get in trouble for the stuff he actually did like framing Ryan and stuff. Unless he goes to the police and asks for immunity in return for testifying against her. That might be a interesting twist, heh. Apparently Amanda Donohoe is leaving in November, so it looks like it'll be another Christmas/New Year storyline, maybe. Just have to wait and see.
