Actually, I think it's just the opposite -- she has such little regard for humans that she doesn't care what she says in front of them -- to her, anything they would think (or do) would be entirely inconsequential.

Maybe hers were fully extended, as the aggressor, and his weren't.

The fangs are made to fit their actual teeth. I'm guessing hers are larger because those teeth they fit on are bigger.

Connie, I noticed SA's extremely large fangs right away ... they were huge, obscenely so! Wonder if, in the vampire world, the size of the fangs have any meaning. ![]:)](http://boards.hbo.com/images/emoticons/devil.gif)

You would think that QSA would not discuss matters of Bill or Sookie or anything in front of Hadley, or the Latvian. Don't want to leak information and give hate looks to shut up for damage control? Don't talk in front of humans.
I, too, wondered if Hadley will share the same blood/fairy thing as Sookie. This would explain her as the queens pet since she is not a vampire in the show.
I think the killing of Hadley/reveal that Bill knew would be a perfect reason for a break up helping release the Bill/Sook and ease into Alcide/Debbie and Eric and book 4. This would be if Alan had intentions of dragging out the big reveal of Bills conquest if there is going to be one at all.
I wonder if QSA wants Sookie because she wants to try to figure out a way to get her to read vampire minds. More blood, more likely. If QSA harnessed this, she'd be unstoppable.
Also, if Lorena was not the kidnapper - and hopefully it's not Eric, I pray - then QSA making Hadley kidnap Bill would be forcing Sookie to walk into saving Bill, seeing Hadley, and the conquest secret would be revealed.
Such a story could eliminate Mississippi, but AB says it's going to be a part of such. Purely speculation, of course.

Yeah, I agree, it's a vampire politics/heirarchy thing.

Well we did see Jessica snap and bite Hoyt's mother. Sure she was doing it because Maxine was saying some terrible things but also becaus she hadn't eaten in days.
But I agree with you on the fact that the viewers are unaware of the connection between bloodlust and average lust so that scene might not make sense in the show.

Did you notice Hadley's subtle reaction to this statement? She reacted to SA saying Bill was in love with Sookie by saying 'he loves her?' (or something like that) & the queen glared at her, making her subside with no further comment. But a moment later, when SA advised Eric not to 'taste' Sookie, Hadley caught the implied meaning behind the idea (that Bill loved Sookie because of Sookie's blood).
Hadley isn't stupid, she knows she & Sookie share ancestry (i.e., 'blood'), which means there may be something about her own blood which the queen has conveniently never mentioned to her.

Yeah, they almost looked like she borrowed them from Sarah Newlin.

I have also seen conflicting info on this. I am sure that I read an interview where AB said she was 400 years old so I guess that's it. And, I think that her outranking Eric would give her the ability to dominate him - maybe not physically but because he would submit to it. Otherwise, it's off to the magister with him.

After watching the scene between Eric (on his back) & SA (on Eric), a few times (vast understatement!), I swear SA's fangs are bigger than Eric's. Does anyone else see that?
I can't figure out her statement that he (Eric) may be the strongest & oldest vampire in her 'queendom', but she can still have his fangs for earrings if she wants them. Is she admitting Eric is older/stronger than her? In which case, how can she 'have his fangs', for earrings, wall mounted trophies or anything else? Or is she just saying he's the oldest/strongest vampire under her, but excluding her?
We've heard conflicting ages for her (from the various sources in the TB troupe & paying no attention to the books), so I wish AB would clear this up. Perhaps, in TB, being queen/king confers some special strength? ITB, it just makes the vampire royalty a target for takeover.
I know this has been talked to death, so ignore me. Except, what about it? Does SA sport a bigger pair than Eric?

I'll accept that. I also believe he does love her. However, the queen implied that the reason may be because of her blood, advising Eric not to drink it because one vampire in love was enough.
So, if this is true, then he may have been drawn to her because of her blood...and she may have been drawn to him because of his blood...making it is quite possible that their "love" was manipulated into existence.
What would make this possibility so delicious is how this would compare to Eric's situation. He is already drawn to Sookie without ingesting her blood so, if he does grow to love her, his feelings might end up being more authentic than Bill's. I'm not saying that this will happen but it would make for an interesting turn of events.

He is just fighting dirty with the poorly timed proposal ...
