9 Mar 2002 06:20 pmright! mary shelley is going to be psychotic. *rubs hands together in glee* ... ... ... maybe i need to read some samuel r delany to prepare me for writing her neurosis. see, she's going to manipulate byron and shelley and her sister, claire, and stuff. she isn't going to do it completely maliciously. she's going to be a sociopath. it isn't going to occur to her that it's wrong. something must have driven her insane. i wonder what it was? she's going to watch byron and shelley have sex after maneuvering them into bed. and the byron-claire thing is going to be her fault.
