daegaer's birthday!! May all delight and happiness come your way! :)A long snippet from "Dead Men Tell No Tales" by E.W. Hornung, just because... well, look, these guys are 'talking' from about 11:30pm to about 3:00am and we get about an hour's worth of conversation reported. Tell me they're not having sex in there, before they part in the morning "like old fast friends."
The setup is, Cole is the sole survivor of a shipwreck and returns to England to great notoriety, but has survivor guilt and feels as though someone's following him. This evening his room has been broken in to and he meets his next door neighbor.
( rather long, sorry. )
