Finally finished reading The Revengers Tragedy today. Am now trying to figure out what to say about it and at how great a length. Jacobean chapter is already 75 pages long, and I fear it. Don't want to say anything about The Revengers Tragedy, really. Want to sit and marvel at it and bask in its morbid glory.

It's also really making me want to watch Sleepy Hollow again; I'm not quite sure why.

Weather not as hot as yesterday, but still pretty vile.

In terrible mood for no reason. Fidgety and bored. Goddammit, why can't this fucking thing write itself without my help?

I utterly feel your pain.

Why don't they *all* just write themselves?

Or at least be more forthcoming about what happens next?

I don't want things to write themselves, because that would mean the computer didn't need me any more, and I'd worry about the implications of that.

Well, it would still need you to install software--

Hah! I wonder if, should we develop direct brain-dump software, the most immediate result would be the retripling of slushpiles, yet again....

Ooh, it would.

And because it's too early in the morning, my brain said, What if Joss Whedon wrote it?, and promptly started casting: James Marsters as Vindice, Sarah Michelle Gellar as Hippolito (there aren't enough female roles, so I'm cross-casting), Alyson Hannigan as the Duchess, Summer Glau as Castiza. Charisma Carpenter and Mercedes McNab would do splendidly as Ambitioso & Supervacuo. The idea of Armin Shimmerman as the Duke is wicked and wrong and terribly funny, and I'm stopping now before I sprain something.

Supervacuo?

Hon, you just gotta quit telling me these names.

Perfect! What a thought.
