Dec. 3rd, 2006 02:32 pmwell that was 4 hours that vanished without trace.
I went back under teh duvet cause it's cold in here.
oops.
Had a dream where Richie Ryan was being followed around by a version of him that dressed and acted like the Richie we first met but looked like Richie would if he'd aged naturally. Which looked *really* skanky. I mean, I was spared the green jacket, but even without that, season 1 Richie was not a snappy dresser. And being all slouchy and teenaged while looking in his thirties (and hard worn thirties at that) is just beyond sad.
So it was all these rejected pieces of his old self, a bit portrait in the attic, very messed up.
I'd try and make a story with it, but it would kind of necessitate Richie going mad, to have that follow him around. And if it were any of the older Immortals they'd be rather unrecogniseable - 5000 year old humans tend to be very, very corpsified. Plus it loses some of the zing to have a teenager from an age we don't recognise. And the others were a bit older when they first died anyway.
I guess I'll file it for use with other kind of immortal characters.
Followed around by a version that looks their calendar age yet acts their apparent age. Nasty.
