Argh. Must go back to work.

C'mon Gas Company. I've got a blueline on my desk and y'all are taking frelling forever.

While I wait:

Name a character and I'll tell you three (or more) facts about them from my own personal pseudo-canon.


Feel free to ask for characters I don't write, although everything I say will be made up in my head:)

Geoffrey. [and/or Geoffrey/Oliver *vbeg*]

[thassalia.livejournal.com]

1. Geoffrey misses being an actor, but he doesn't necessarily miss acting. (His whole life is acting, or at least, his whole life is playing the role of Geoffrey Tennant and frankly, he doesn't have any room left for anyone else. He will, he could, and when he does, he realizes, that he no longer wants to be an actor anymore. He wants a different fate than Charles Kingman).

2. Geoffrey really was that good. Geoffrey was also really that young, and sometimes the two get mixed up. It's so easy to imagine being anyone when you're only learning who you are. At this age, Geoffrey would be a lesser actor, but he's a better man and for the first time, he thinks that's a worthwhile trade-off.

3. Geoffrey knows (now, and then, even if he'll never admit it) why Oliver did what he did. That love makes fools of us all. Geoffrey wanted a father, wanted Oliver's guiding hand, Ellen's luminescence, her presence, and they wanted HIM. And it was heady and giddy, and all a little too much. He knows now that it's all just family, too much too little, too soon, too late, and he's grateful for the time he has with them.

4. He loves Ellen more now, loves her differently as she's matured - as she's lost her girlishness, as her habits have become annoying instead of charming. He loves her like a person, instead of like an abstract, and while it makes them both a bitch to live with, it is, in the end, better.
