Aw, come on, you can hardly call it pedantic when Rowan is holding it up as one of THE quotes of the series, something that just stands on its own in his 'Stray Observations' section. I mean, if you give it that much importance, you ought to get it right. (sniffs, pushes up glasses)

God help me, I just rewatched the wedding scene, and Jessica does not wipe her ears at any time. She dabs at her eyes a couple of times, and her nose once, but we never saw any blood actually dripping out of her nose. To me, it appeared as though she was simply wiping away happy tears like any normal bride with feels…

I can believe that. Between Sookie being able to read his thoughts, Jess commenting that he was warm, and the lack of pale vampire makeup during the cemetery scene, they were practically *broadcasting* that fact-that-didn't-actually-become-a-fact.
