I mean it's all there but I felt like I should note it because I realised what an incredibly depressing layer it adds to it.

Some Supermassive lore that I realised wasn't properly conveyed; the story starts on the Monday immediately succeding Aston Lang's Birthday, Sunday the 14th of September.

They had sent Hermione ahead of them so that the house would be ready. and they were now running late. Rain fell in ropes on the windshield that was fogged with the breath of the living. Adrian Coleridge scowled as he ran his now wet palm over the glass to look at the black ice of the sky. He...

So this is something that I've been kinda curious about for a while. So to cut a long story short, in 2010 the election results of that years General Election in Oldham East & Saddleworth was declared void as Phil Woolas, the MP at the time, had knowingly made false statements about his Lib Dem...

I'll probably one day actually get around to writing this but right now I'm a bit eehhhhhh and felt like sharing.

I’ll expand more when I get my resources back, but off hand the most immediate way the SDP could have improved their chances was to allow David Steel to be the Alliance’s ‘Prime Minister designate’ during the 1983 campaign rather than Woy.

In many respects, I do get the sense many would be happy to tell totally fictional stories about US Presidential Primaries with their OC muscle flexing Iowa, but then again I do also get the sense that they'd also much rather go into excruciating detail about how their Waifu would have won...
