    Painting of a skull being cradled by some hands.

    This is so so goooood!!! His dismissive & cruel nature to her at first & then the way their dynamic flips & she absolutely plays him for the fool (ha!) he is!! Real sense of catharsis, especially at the reveal of the answer to the crossword clue!!
    'his voice sounds like part of that silence – like he is part of the furniture here – like he speaks with the same tongue as the theatre itself.'
    Absolutely loveeeed the imagery here, so much emphasising how he feels like he belongs in that space & she doesn't (I love a fic that deals with class disparity in the world of theatre lol!!)
    & allllll the dog imagery (too many parts to quote but know I enjoyed all of them lol) was so brilliant (& incredibly hot ngl)!!!
    I also ofc liked the inclusion of Marcus stomping around being grumpy & judgemental lol

      Ahhh thank you so much for taking the time to comment!! 🥹🩷 I'm so glad you liked the class difference stuff and the dog stuff, ahh I know deep down he'd enjoy it 🥰🐶

      V glad you enjoyed Marcus too lmao!! This is obviously an AU where Sherrie is too busy fucking that old man to notice Marcus trying to bedevil her. So I expect he's having a terrible time once he realises his plan isn't going to work :P thank you again, you're too sweet!!! 🩷🩷🩷
