Hey, I'm late. Sorry!

Heh. When I asked what you thought of it, I thought you were talking about the stage play -- the only thing I'd seen at the time. Having seen the movie now, I would say I prefer it to the play. There were elements of the play that upset me, which they either changed or did away with entirely in the movie. Also, the character of Posner is treated much better in the movie than in the play.

Posner was my absolute, absolute favorite, and while in a way it makes sense for him to turn into another Hector, I'm sorely tempted to write fic where he makes peace with himself -- possibly after Lockwood's funeral, definitely before he's sixty -- and finds himself a nice boy. Possibly Scripps. Or maybe Will Stanton.

Were you to actually do this, I should be forced to follow you to your house and take up residence under your bed in order to stalk you more effectively and just generally creep you out as reward for being brilliant.

So you'd better not.

:)

Do it!

I have been trying all day to write out something, but the fact that I am not British and not Alan Bennett tends to get in the way. You might hate me if I wrote that story for my unending abuse, misuse, and neglect of British speech patterns.

Can I tell you the plot?
