Serious Weakness brought me here

Porpentine recommended [1] The Pillowman in her post about "the aftermath" of writing Serious Weakness. There is a common essence between the two, though it's captured in very different forms / presentations. I loved the pace of the dialogue, and the sparse metalanguage indications were enough to bring the scenes to life clearly in my mind.

I suspect that, had I read this all the way back in high school, I would at least try my hand at staging it in the most amateur and fangirl-y way possible.
