I'm tired enough that my eyes are trying to close without my say so, while I'm in the middle of work, and my head is starting to feel music in a different way...
Nevertheless, this seemed like a totally reasonable time to begin concepts for writing.
Like most people, I've often been entranced by that last shot of Dr. Horrible in plain clothes and staring woefully into the camera. One lyric from On the Rise (That soon the dark in me is all that will remain) just seemed to me a succinct way of describing that feeling of having a friend who is no longer a friend but you keep expecting them to care about how you're doing in the same way that they used to, only they never do...
And because that's a mundane reading of a lyric, plus the mundane shot at the end, I wanted to write up a mundane version of the story that becomes Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along-Blog.
