igenlode: The pirate sloop 'Horizon' from "Treasures of the Indies" (Default)

So I finally saw "Crimson Peak" a couple of weeks ago, and thought it was full of obvious plot holes (Edith's broken leg being the most egregious...) and fairly ludicrous amounts of gore.

And then without actually intending it I kept finding myself thinking about the characters, and the context of certain scenes... and the long and the short of it was that a week after dismissing it I found myself writing fan-fiction about it! (And in this case about the character I originally considered to be a complete cipher; it's amazing how writing from someone else's viewpoint gives you a new appreciation of his existence.)
