I just assumed it was a nickname.
Buffista Movies 4: Straight to Video
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
I think that Dash and Violet were named the same way that Remus Lupin was--Authorial Foreshadowing Run Amok.
Violet?
She's shrinking. Wait, that's not it.
::headdesk headdesk::
Cause she's shy.

I totally thought it was going to be a play on Ultraviolet. Beyond the visible spectrum. Huh?
There was a DC character back in the day called Shrinking Violet, but she got smaller. I assumed this Violet was Shrinking also, but because shy.
And Mirage turned out to be not what she seemed. (Or exactly what she seemed, since she followed the Bond Girl trope to the letter).
By the way, Raq, I'm finding information on the Marigny by looking at local NOLA blogs. Apparently it's one of the best off areas of the city. It hasn't even been flooded yet and they just have trees down over there.
Whew! Thanks, Hec. I was just speed-reading Natter to find out. Guess my friends picked a good place to buy.

It's my favorite neighborhood - I've stayed there every time I go to NOLA. I'm very selfishly happy that it's doing okay so far.
