Went back to look at old bird forum. Read through the Lymond posts and realised so many of the discussions were unfinished and left hanging. Mostly because, I suppose, a Lymond review requires a lot of brainpower and time, and we all know how time is so hard to come by. And once someone posts something excessively long (review of Checkmate), no one feels compelled to reply it in equally 'freaky proportions'. (I quote Turk.)

One of my favourite quotes of all time, when Lymond fell in love:

And deep within him, missing its accustomed tread, his heart paused, and gave one single stroke, as if on an anvil.

It can't be that simple. What a sudden realisation. Fiction.

1 am. What am I doing here? Have basic theory test on Monday! Gah. And the unspeakable thing on Wednesday.
