I think over-exposure to the Watchmen fandom has broken my brain. There I am, happily gorging on the good and the bad, and my subconscious comes up with this gem. "I don't understand Edward Blake. But I could. If he had a little more background, other than 'psychopath'. Hell, anyone could be reduced to 'psychopath'. Rorschach, for instance. Also, Adrian Veidt.

In non-crazy news, one more day at work and then I have Easter break, woo! I'm really looking forward to it. monanotlisa is visiting, and we are doing tea. Mmmm, tea. With champagne, naturally. Also, Good Friday is Judy Dench Day, with Madame de Sade in the evening, woot!

I still owe people (including you) fic before I get to write the stuff slowly percolating. But - maybe...

And are you in London?

I am indeed, yes. And monanotlisa arrives tomorrow. When are you arriving?? Shall we do something spectacular? Will there be tassels? I love tassels...
