At The Gates

WHO: Iain MacLaren and Catherine Gryffiths, Librarians.
WHAT: Let’s not call it a reunion. Iain and Cath meet for drink and discussion long overdue, their first face-to-face in over six years. Awkward.
WHEN: Backdated to mid-October. Yeah.
WHERE: A pub in Camberwell. In-progress.

( Just let it blow, in the fog of Bishop's Lane. )

WHO: Iain MacLaren and Wilhelmina O’Connor, the ghost occupying Talia Sullivan’s flat.
WHAT: An unexpected informant makes supernatural developments known.
WHEN: After this.
WHERE: A tale of two flats in London: Talia’s after an encounter with a certain missionary, and Iain’s after Mme O’Connor has managed to find her way through the wilds of the city to his door.

( Nobody knows, nobody sees, nobody knows, but me. )

WHO: Iain MacLaren and a certain ex (spoiler alert, Catherine Gryffiths.)
WHAT: Narrative. Memories of habitual and habit-forming lives, unusual and mundane, generally at the same time. PG-13, probably, for some descriptive violence and a little innuendo.
WHEN: Autumn, some six years hence.
WHERE: Paris.

( The dark and empty rooms were full of incandescent hands. )

WHO: Catherine Gryffiths and a certain ex-boyfriend (Iain MacLaren).
WHAT: Narrative. Background on a relationship.
WHEN: Six years ago, and then later.

( There's something to be said for shared silences. )
