Thanks. :) I love writing Heather, so the ones she's in are really long! And I think the early merge is mostly just to open up more challenge possibilities and make the eliminations more shocking. That and I like the idea of the characters being more on their own. Oh, and trust me. I've heard the Kristen Stewart thing before. She gives us pale, dark haired, mopey Kristens a bad name. XD And I know it's hard to believe Minerva's based on a guy. He's a real character and is really funny, and he's just as motor mouthed as she is.
