That's twice I worked for Spielberg.  
Y has long hair, wears an Iron Madien T-shirt, prob. w/ Ol' Eddie on the front... now he shows off a big shiny ring. My peers are too kind.

And then a thumbs up ...when it's my round I might play on that.

Hehe, I pictured something that a rockstar might wear. Something like this perhaps?



Or...



Ah, I just realised...I so should've done a 'rock on' sign instead of a thumbs up

I don't know, but I absolutely loved the "potential set up" that The Usual Suspect worked on for the vision I had that involved "P" and the need of her Ex husband's partner. (That was when M sat down at the table with A & P).

It never came to fruition, but I had imagined M trying to stop A from any further passes at P. Why? Because M's need is to get P to call her Ex and give him a second chance. (Because she was hired by I to do just that. Work in the female capacity to that end.)  With that in mind, M is even dreaming of requesting the use of D's tactics to pull A away from P so that she will be more inclined to give her Ex husband another chance. M is trying extremely hard on her assignment, but she's collapsing under pressure and I's so cool and calm. Her "employer" is very different than she is. The two work together, but it's amazing the opposites they are.

I saw "P's" husband suicidal, (can't live without her)  drugged out, (very much like X with respect to the vices). P's Ex husband's partner in business I felt was completely ruined without him, (P's husband). I know how complicated it sounds...

The partner knows that if P just gives her Ex another chance, he'll be as good as gold. The partner knows (with P by her husband's side) that he will pull himself up, no longer talking suicide and ruining himself with heavy drug use.

So...

What I had imagined was:

P's husband's partner hired "I" to make sure she'd at least give her husband a chance. "I" knew that he needed a woman to relate to a woman and hired "M". And "M" wants to do her best, but never knew that "I" could pull the hard cold tactics and it's scaring her. "I" is freaking her out.

So there you go folks...

I guess I couldn't help thinking a lot of backstory.  

I'd love to get Pia to seduce A. I need him off of P so that P can at least consider returning to her husband. Even if only for a short time.

If "I" thinks I've not weakened too much, then at least he'll give me a little more congee to send to Daddy.

I actually figured I'd let M try getting all buddy buddy with P as her tactic. And besides, you never know - A's attention might just push P over the edge anyway

A an P (I think) have enough shine for any writer who wants to (play up their dilemmas) take a strong handle on their situations and develop them in this unique play of worlds.

There's a whole lot of fun to be had here! And especially, it's fun to just change momentum and switch gears. I guess I'm crazy like that, but I really do enjoy seeing the shifts and imagining how we'll work with them.

Uh oh, I'm all alone in the bathroom now? When did that happen?

If I die I'm holding Michael personally responsible.

Way- wait! This can't be happening! It must all be from the POV of "M".!!!

X, you murderer! How could you slit Y's throat and just try to pretend like it wasn't you. I think someone's trying to frame him.

Seriously, who kills someone in the bathroom?

Good stuff, though, E.D. The train coming to a stop over water is an interesting development.

I thought the confused letters/words was hilarious. I got a good laugh.

Until I read the end. I'm the first one to go? Damn you. I tried setting up some conflict between A and T, which I guess won't go anywhere. Is it cause this is my first time playing the game?

How did I know this would happen? Damn you Michael for setting up my death!!!!!  

Good entry though, thought it was funny.

I bet Michael's the one who resurrects you. You could look like Juno, the case worked, in Beetlejuice... =)
