Stuff and Moonshine

Once again I find myself wondering if this is something I had heard about and forgot, or if I TIL there was a 1976 tv adaptation of Beauty and the Beast that starred George C. Scott. Wonder, because now that I know that, I feel like there’s a clip in my head of a disheveled, human Scott lying in a dusty floor— but I can’t tell if it’s a real memory, or something my imagination just ran up for the occasion. Either way I need to watch this (looks like it’s on YouTube) because (incoherent flailing) I suspect this might be the closest thing to an adaptation of Angela Carter’s ‘The Courtship of Mr. Lyon’ that currently exists in our universe.

I'm more and more convinced I ought to have given Nine's mother a name back at the start, but that's what rewrites are for. Hope you can managed to know which "she/her" is which in the upcoming dialogue. Tricky thing is, this started as a fairy-tale, though I think it's since become something else, and in fairy-tales it's usually only the central character who has a name, if indeed anyone at all does.

I don't know if this comes directly after the previous scene, or if there should be something in between.

I think, after yesterday's post, I have the beginning of a story.
