Dude, that was so good! I love that whole second-to-last paragraph, and the last line. See, that's all I need, some Veronica confusion over something that makes so much sense. I was identifying so much with Veronica at this point (and really, all of S1, which makes the turn-about in S2 all the more jarring) that it's mostly her motivation(s) that I question, especially given everything that happens afterward. But I've rarely stopped to consider what was going through Logan's mind at this moment. Was he appalled by what he was doing, for various reasons including but not limited to the fact that this was a) his best friend's ex-girlfriend; b) a girl he had derided for over a year, and convinced himself was the cause of his girlfriend's death and who had betrayed him; c) a girl he had gone out of his way to torment for quite some time; d) a girl he had possibly entertained the hots for some time in the recent past?

I guess the question is, to be fair to Veronica, how do we know Logan's motives were pure? I guess the fact that he's stayed true to his feelings is why I haven't explored his motivations as thoroughly as I've considered Veronica's -- but the fact is, he almost doesn't have a choice. If Lilly were alive, this improbable romance might never have happened, and if Duncan had been the one to die instead of Lilly, would Logan have gone right back to her?

These are rhetorical (sort of) questions, mind you. :)) I don't expect you to know the answer to every question I pose; I just like thinking out loud. Hee.
