Re: Peter/Olive
You're not to scratch things out. I always liked the terrible stories best. I rather liked being scared, in theory, and even in practice, so long as there existed the knowledge that the threat would end with the closing credits or the slamming shut of the book cover.
[...] Killed, Peter. Not involved. I'm worried you'll be killed. It's nothing like the romantic deaths we enacted in your mum's best sitting room.
