Personal and Political Boundaries
Aw man, I wish teenage boys didn't eat so damn much. I spend half of my free time either shopping for them, or preparing something to eat. It would be nice if I could starve them to death, but I've put in so much work already to quit now, and they complain a lot. Hence why their squeaky wheel gets the grease.

Here is a woman. She is often referred to and regularly dismissed as a mere barmaid from a small backwards town, uneducated and somewhat trivial. And yet this woman basically has two vampire rulers somewhat quaking in their boots. She has in effect altered the vampire political landscape. And Sookie didn't even try to do it!

Go Team Sookie!

I think the only other similarly protected person is Dracula. :D He's not allowed to be refused anything at all. :D But yeah - that is pretty profound - that she has them doing stuff to make it clear that she matters, and that policy should be made to deal specifically with the threat that is Sookie Stackhouse. Imagine how the weres and shifters are going to gossip up a storm about that one!
I think that'd be a pretty scary prospect for most vampires. Particularly if her luck held out. Eric is absolutely right that she'd make a magnificent vampire all the way round. She'd hate it, but she'd just kick arse all the time.
Yay! Go Team Sookie indeed!
