It’s more painting portraits than giving the inside scope into your characters’ feelings this time; a more careful, neater, seemingly simpler way of writing, of storytelling that so perfectly reflects both Sean’s and Viggo’s need to keep in control, to keep everything – literally – boxed up.
I need to learn to write like this again. I mean it, seriously.
I _love_ that with Viggo it’s things he can see that fascinate him. That at the same time, he _tries_ to capture what he is seeing in words (and somehow fails, however apt his descriptions are, because what the moment meant to him is yet unsaid), whereas Sean takes Viggo’s words and somehow lets himself be captured by them. Lovely bit of difference.
... How do you take something I write and make it sound so much better than it really is? /SHAKES SO HARD
If you keep lavishing praise on me like that, I will never stop writing stuff and making you read the stuff I write and commenting on them. X( X( X( See how you like that then!!!
