Outrunning Fiction

[jackofallgeeks]

Scene: ANDREW and JOSH ride home from [convenience store], listening to "Honour" by VNV Nation.

ANDREW: You know, I'd really like to write a story about an idealistic revolution which turns into a bloody coup and finally ends in an equally fasc- no, an even more fascist government.
JOSH: You want to write about the French Revolution?
ANDREW: (nods vigorously, grinning) Yeah, but you know, modernized. With lasers!
