Title: JUDGING JULIA
Post by: VAM on September 04, 2002, 03:03:21 AM
Is Julia really concerned about Adam? Perhaps her interest is due to the fact that Barnabas is linked to Adam by the experiment. Is the Doc being genuine with her comments?

[smash]No, she is terrified of Adam, and her only thought is for her precious Barnabus and of Dr. Lang's warning.  If Adam dies.........[evily] Afan

I agree, she's not concerned about Adam, just Barnabas. After all of Adam's threats to kill the Collins family and Vicki, and being used to start an evil race of people, I wouldn't be too concerned about him either.

I think Julia is troubled by Adam. . .she feels guilt for bringing him alive and probably a bit for being such a bad mother but Barnabas is always, her main concern. . so i wouldn't say she's lying. . .she's just troubled. . .

Julia is as concerned as she can be for someone who isn't Barnabas.

It's a good thing Mrs. Johnson didn't find out about that. Adam would've really been in trouble!

Dr. Julia Hoffman could care less about Adam.  The only person (?) she cares for is Barnabas.  I don't blame her, but she should be a little caring (?) for Adam, when ever  Nick and her are discussing Adam.

I agree J99  i think she feels a lot of guilt over this i think her feelings for Barnabas get in the way and he is her main concern but Adam has been a royal pain in the butt since he arrived  He's hardly likable and i don't blame her if she wants him gone but she is for him and does seem to feel some pity for him!

jennifer
frankly want to see him and that ratty green sweater gone too!

Do you mean HENESY? Yes, I heard of him.[thumb]

(I am sure Dr. Hoffman would not want you to get violent Julia99. Afterall, you do remember she herself used that SILENT approach to take out someone.) ;)

I agree with you here.  Adam didn't ask to be born, and all he's really trying to do is find someone to love.  He's really still technically a child, or perhaps a teenager by now (watch out for those hormones!) and Julia feels responsible for his "birth".  She's the only mother he's ever known (he had Barnabas, Stokes and Nicholas, three dads) and must feel some responsibility for him, under the circumstances.  Besides, as far as she's concerned at this point, this could be the only "child" she and Barnabas ever create--and there is that link between the two that would return Barnabas to his vampire state.  Julia feels guilty about Adam, and that does engender some feelings, both real and false on her part.

Love, Robin

Or blue or black. . .she had as many color-coded stockings to go with the purses, gloves and coats. . .where does she keep those coats ..they can't all fit in that wardrobe in her bedroom. . .

Julia does care about Adam to the extent of feeling somewhat responsible for him since she was the one who brought him into the world.  

Her compassion for him probably is at a lower level than her very genuine fear that if Adam dies, Barnabas will "revert" to vampirehood.  This is about to come up again very prominently in the story.

As for Grayson acting "badly" I revel in it whenever she rips that tawdry scenery apart with her bare hands and gives the dialogue a hearty, vigorous mastication!

What did she say to Adam, "Professor Stokes taught you decency"? After that, she had to be thinking "You certainly didn't learn it from us!"
