My dear, you know that I love what you do to the gothic.

It's like a breath of fresh air after sitting in a horror/sci-fi section on the floor, sighing for most of the summer. It has such a lovely classical feel, in the almost-over-the-top DEATH EVERYWHERE, but more in the details of the rooms.

(We will of course assume that the reason a hugely promising scientist like mister Hamish prefers to stay on his own is perhaps due to potential scandal which does not make Mister Ghastly's advances at all unwelcome.)

Of course, over-the-top ghastly seductions are a staple of the classic gothic, too. (DOHOHOHOHOHO. BADPUN. *BUTCHERKNIF'D*)

I look forward to seeing what you do with this. ^^ (As always.)

BADPUNWIN LOLOLOL.

Thanks very much for your support!! I'm behind on chapters and graphics hw is due on Monday. (It took two weeks to get 3 points, and I need 27 more in two days. That's a genuine scary story)

I think I'm falling behind with the story, but it's still alive!

PUNS LIKE THESE ARE WHY WE ARE TREMENDOUSLY OLD FRIENDS.

Aaaaah. That IS a genuinely scary story. o_o Goodness.

Is it now? XD I forgot to mention how much I love the "pork" thing there when they have beef for dinner. I know, granted, that beef is probably more repulsive to you, personally, but it's that whole thing about "long pork" and all the rest...
She eats off a special dish, indeed. You didn't need that leg, did you? Didn't think so.

Jeez. You aren't doing nanowrimo, right? That would just make this all the more frightening...

Oh, dammit. That was a slip up on my part. That part about pork should be beef. What is this thing with pork that you're talking about?
