Question:
Do you think Nat should be brought across?
Why or why not? By whom?

June Cross

I think Nick should move on, in some way or form. If Nat's brought across, where's the romance & tension that was created because & despite their differences?

I don't think "Forever Knight" should've ended at all. But most especially it should never have ended the way it was aired. It was an insult & a slap in the face to all the loyal fans & viewers! I'm very disappointed, to the point of anger.

Ray Heuer

Duh.... Gee, I don't know..... :-)

Obviously I feel that Nat should be brought over. As I see it, the basic stumbling block in Nick & Nat's relationship is Nat's mortality. With Nat as a vampire, they can ... er ... consummate their love, and not have to worry about what anyone else thinks.

Although FK doesn't delve too deeply into the problem, the greatest problem facing many scientists with seemingly insoluble research is the knowledge that they have only so long on this earth to find an answer. Nat knows that Nick will act to protect her until she learns to control her vampirism. After that -- she can spend decades, even centuries working on the "cure" for vampirism. She might even come up with certain stop-gap measures, like Hemoglobin patches or SPF 1 Million.

As to the who, Nick has obvious problems in this area, and a horrible track record when it comes to bringing people over. I think LaCroix is the best answer. Not because I see any romantic link between them (In fact, just the opposite), but because LaCroix can be trusted to do it right, if he bothers to do it at all.

Some 800 years ago, LaCroix brought Nick across, partially as a plaything for Janette. Now, he might be convinced to bring Nat across as a plaything for Nick.

No, I don't think Nat should be brought across. I think that would ruin the entire concept of FK which is a vampire struggling to be mortal again, so he can have a mortal life and mortal love. If Natalie weren't mortal, Nick would have no reason to try to become one. Natalie would also lose the reason she loves Nick so much which is that he is trying to become mortal again to be with her and live a normal life. Natalie and Nick should be together, but not as vampires, either as mortals, or in the afterlife. Nick would never forgive himself if he brought Natalie across to doom her to the very same existence from which he's trying to escape. If LaCroix brought her across, then Natalie would hate him twice as much as she does now, and then Nick would also start to hate LaCroix. Nick and Nat would lose their magic and LaCroix would have won as now Nick would never become mortal and would have to live forever a vampire in order to be with Nat.

Beverly Turner

I think Nat should be brought across by Lacroix. He doesn't want Nick to die (life would be no fun without tormenting him) and Nick wants to die without her. I think for fun he should use Nick's blood instead of his own or both mixed. He could use one of those needles that Nat seems to keep handy for experiments on Nick.

Ken Kapoor

Nah.

(Good answer, Ken! :)

Jaspal Sunita Kaur

Nat should not be brought across cos she has to be the one reason that Nick wants to get mortal again for. Janette however should be brought back.

Sheila Coneybeer

NO!!! It changes the whole dynamics of the show. That Nick is in love with a mortal woman is too important to the character definition. It is part of what makes Nick so appealing. He isn't just attracted to vampires, but truly loves Nat. (Oh mush!!) Their more mature relationship, built on trust and mutual concern as well as desire is a wonderful counterpoint to the Vetter/Vachon liaison which is soooo physical, so sexual, sooooo..... Well, it just is. Bringing Nat across would just be the veriest wrong thing to do. HOWEVER, if you are talking about the LK ending, the answer is yes and LaCroix. Because then he would control the very thing Nick wants the most and again LC would be in charge. (How perfectly evil!)

Izabela

I think that Natalie should definitely be brought across and it should be by LaCroix. If LaCroix brings Natalie across it makes the relationship between Nick and LaCroix even more complex than it already is. Nick would have one more reason to hate LaCroix, but then on the other hand, LaCroix also would have made it possible for Nick and Natalie to be together without Nick having to compromise himself. Nick would never have to feel the guilt or responsibility of bringing Natalie across yet he gets the benefit of being with Natalie forever. Nick would now actually have a reason to be grateful to LaCroix - though he would never admit that to himself. Also, just because Nick has a moral problem with killing, does that mean Natalie would feel the same way? After all, they are two distinct personalities and Natalie hasn't been brought up in the same religious time period Nick was. What if, once brought across, she found she didn't have the same misgivings as Nick? What if she felt herself wanting to embrace her new vampiric nature? What would that mean for Nick and Natalie? Would she continue to help Nick find a cure or would she try to convince him to abandon his search? It could make Nick's struggle for humanity even more difficult. He would be much more torn than he is now and it would definitely raise the stakes (sorry). The storyline possibilities could be endless (with the right imagination).

Karen

Well now, to what purpose would bringing Natalie across serve? Certainly not the main gist of the show in which Nick is looking for a cure. At this point in his time, Natalie looks like the only one who is even close to this search. While I have understood the reason behind her wanting to be brought across in Last Knight, I don't agree with it. I even think that at some point she was hoping that if he took "just a little at a time", this would effect the same cure Janette had attained. However, should writers decide to open that door and search that premise, then by all means, I vote for Nick to bring her across. Her trust in him would ease the transition and bind the two together even greater.

A unique twist would be for LaCroix to bring her across, there are numerous story possibilities here, but Last Knight has been cruel enough, and I for one would rather it be simple and just let Nick do it right and be the one.

Sharon Bauman

I agree that if Natalie were brought across, it would change the whole dynamics of her relationship with Nick. I really liked the Nat/Nick/Janette theme; but since the writers killed Janette off, Nick has no vampire love in his life. It would alter Nick and Nat's interaction if she were brought across, but Nick wouldn't be so lonely and Nat could truly love Nick. (OK, I'm a romantic, too). As another fan said, Nick doesn't have a good track record bringing people across, so Lacroix would have to do it, now that the writers have killed off all the other interesting vampires (in a totally unbelievable way!). It would have been interesting to have Vachon bring Nat across for Nick. I didn't like the way the show ended, but the only bright spot is that the writers have left it vague as to whether Nat and Nick actually died. So there's always the possibility that Nick didn't screw up, did succeed in bringing Natalie across, and Lacroix decided he would NOT skewer Nick, per his request. Now the writers have to find a way to bring Vachon back!

Nicole Nelson-Hicks

I don't think this will make me very popular but I just never understood the whole Nick/Nat attraction. I never really saw any great LOVE between them... just a lot of anguish and angst. I always felt that Nat should've accepted Nick for what he was (and Nick needed to be slapped around and come to terms with it too!) or move on. And she became a vampire.... that would've killed the relationship right there. No more angst! Sick, sick relationship, if you asked me. But that's just me. I always root for the vampires.

P.S. I have one question concerning all the talk about killing for blood. We are almost into the 21st century... don't you think vampires would've found more... suitable.... means to satisfy their needs? Or maybe that would take all the fun out of it!

Laura Wiborg

Well my sister and I think that Nat should be brought across because Nick and her really love each other and if she was brought across her and Nick could live together forever. And we think that Nick's master should bring her across I can not remeber his name but if Nick brought her across then it would just mess up everything they have worked for. Well that is what we have to say By BY.

E. Albertson

I think that since Nat was dying in the last episode, she should be brought across. If Nick feels too guilty to do it, LaCroix or Janette should. On the other hand, it would be cooler if Nick became human, but that would necessarily end everything. Either keep things as they were, or have Nat be brought across. Why? BECAUSE, she and Nick are in love, and they should be together sooner or later.

Naomi Engle

I would be reluctant to have Nat brought across. Her brother turned into a monster when he was brought across and maybe the same thing might happen to Nat. I think it's too big a gamble and may be one of the reasons Nick was so reluctant to bring her across.

Carolyn Alutius

Okay, I've thought about this (and read the other answers so far) and it is a very good question. It seems to me like Natalie would need very little persuading to be brought across, she has asked to be on more than one occasion, so I think she'd come to terms with vampirehood more easily than Nick ever did. In that one episode, Francesca, I think, Nick was explaining to Nat what drinking blood felt like to vampires, and you could tell by her face that she was, well, interested, to say the least (Made me want to jump through the tv screen, but that's another story). However, in the Janette ep. Nick had that dream that she found the cure, and they were going to have a baby, and he just looked so happy, it was heartbreaking. So anyway, to answer the question, I think not, for Nick's sake. I don't think Nick would be happy with her. She is to him his beacon of light in his darkness, for her to be brought across would be devastating to him. I really think if Nat had her way, she would become a vampire, though.

Gwenn

If the humanity is indeed hopeless for Nick, then Nat be brought across. LaCroix should bring her across because that way she won't be "related" to Nick and they can have a more normal relationship. Of course, if Nick brings her across, there is a lot of information she will never have to communicate to him but she will have to ask him for personal information.

Sherry van Swaringen

Nat is a great lady! Not too many people I know would have reacted the way she did to Nick's being a vampire... and a vampire who asks for her help nonetheless. But... even though this is the case, I really don't think she's suited to be a vampire. For one thing, I believe by her nature, she'd turn out much the way Nick did... feeling guilty. And even if she didn't and she loved her new found freedom, and killed without thinking a second thought, she and Nick would be forever seperated. He would have his guilt, and his longing to become mortal, and she would grow farther and farther away from him, because she'd have no problem with the vampirism. On the other hand of course... her becoming a vampire, could make Nick realize that being a vampire isn't so bad. And, they could fly off into the night... and drink all the blood they want together. (That would definitly make Lacroix happy, at least the part where Nick is back to being a vampire again.) But... personally, I don't see that happening... anyway, it's just an opinion :)

Kristin Weddum

No. She needs to retain her humanity. I'd like to see more of a focus on finding a "cure" for Nick though.

Jennifer

Yes, I think Nat should be brought across, I think it would make her "live" life to it's fullest. I think that Lacroix should bring her across because she would only end up hating Nick in the end. I also think that a common bond of hatered of Lacroix yet loyalty would be a different and interesting to see. But being a Valetine slightly taints my point of view. I would love to see a love triangle thing going on with Nat/Nick/LaCroix would be a new twist on the plot line and seeing Nick get jealous over Nat would be nice to see for a change. I would have liked to have seen Nat go to LaCroix to have him bring her over when Nick refused her (you know for the last show) and have get all upset and leave; which would have left more room for a next season or at least something else. Anyway, did I mention I was a Valentine? ;)

Missie

I think Nat should be brought across because her and Nick are both in love with each other. I think she should be brought across by Lacroix because Nick always takes too much blood.

Brian Phillips

Hmmm... well, she really wanted to be brought across. It seemed to me that she was facinated with the thought of being a vampire. But, Nick would not be the one to bring her across. It would be LaCroix, he would do it to force Nick to give up on becoming human again.
