“On your release, I’ll establish you in your own business.”

Kitty scoffed. “I don’t want charity!”

“It’s what I owe you.”

Violet produced the diary.

“For this. Not— That changed nothing. He’s still manipulating the naive.”

She gripped the book.

“But… I know my duty.”

Kitty laughed softly. “You’re going to save all his future victims?”

Violet nodded firmly.

“Yes.”

Another non-shrinking Violet!

Indeed ^__^

I kind of like the idea of a twist on the situation. She stays bound to him in a way, but instead of dedicating her life to him as his wife, she dedicates her life to keeping other people safe from him.

Glad to see Violet get some spine! Go, go, go!

In ILLU she's so determined and so sure of herself. I'm certain once her eyes had been opened she'd be able to use those traits to accomplish other, more positive things.

And those bullet-deflecting bracelets don't hurt either.

I wondered if someone would actually mention Wonder Woman ^_^

Must admit I haven't seen the film but there's been an awful lot of related stuff passing over my Tumblr dashboard recently ^__^

It's a fabulous movie - you don't realize how ubiquitous a male POV in film is until it's completely absent, as in this woman-directed offering. No cheesecake shots at all - unless you count the gratuitous MALE nudity with the lovely Chris Pine! (That's why a lot of dudes are whining and bawling over this film.)

An intriguing little scene.

Thank you ^_^

Oh, nice. And I like the notion of a reconciliation between her and Kitty, too. :-)

I'm sure Violet would want to repay Kitty for her narrow escape ^_^
