Bela wasn't an *attractive* character
Oh, I thought she was very attractive.
Who was the real power? The Captain? or Tenille?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
She's more attractive on Vampire Diaries.

I think there's some confusion over the overly sexualized victims-of-the-week or the sexualized violence towards the female persons on the show, and an actual character on the show. Although the torture of Ruby by Alistair springs to mind. But that does not disqualify her from being a strong female character. Or an evil bitch.

Sexualised torture is one reason I tune in! And it's not the females I'm drooling over. My gender issues with the show are the incredibly nubile victims and the fact that they don't recur the good women properly, in that order. Not that they can't write distinct and varied female characters.
Don't make me watch Vampire Diaries.
She's only been on two eps so far, if that helps. But I actually like her this time round.

I saw some pictures on IMDb, and I like her hair better on SPN. Although I do dig that cut on some women.

I suppose this is an English/Literature/Writing question:
When there is a dialogue going on, and it's back and forth, I understand that there is no need to identify the speakers after the initial introduction. However, in the middle of that, is it appropriate to have the second speaker give an unidentified reaction while the first speaker continues?
Like,
Speaker 1 "Blah"
Speaker 2 "Blahdee"
Speaker 1 "Blahblah" He rolled his eyes[2] "Blahdahbadeeblah"[1]
Because I've come across that in a few fics and it confuses the hell out of me, and am wondering if I have reading comprehension issues, or the writers have the dysfunction.

Because books.
Speaker 1 "Blahblah" He rolled his eyes[2] "Blahdahbadeeblah"[1]
Is that broken up into paragraphs? Because if not, I would assume Speaker 1 is rolling his eyes in the middle of his speech.
