How could there be more than one? It's not a terribly long novel.

[timeanalyst]

Allow me to introduce you to the concept of remakes and multiple adaptations, sweetheart.
There's more than one way to make a movie based on a novel.

[annarr]

Does that mean there's an alligator one?

[he's making it make sense to his own brain, ok]

[timeanalyst]

[Huh. He's never actually thought about that before??]

Maybe there is? In some universe out there.
I can't say I've stumbled upon anything like that before though.

[annarr]

Whichever one's closest, then xx

[timeanalyst]

You mean to the book?
Or closest to an alligator? :)

[annarr]

Absolutely to the alligator.

I'll accept the abstraction of lizard, even.

[timeanalyst]

Frankenstein with a lizard?
You drive a hard bargain, Lokes.

[annarr]

Ah, but I'm very worth the effort!

[timeanalyst]

You are.
Even when the task itself is ridiculously impossible.

[annarr]

Impossible can be fun!

Besides, the journey etc etc.

And the hand-holding.

[timeanalyst]

I really like holding hands...

[annarr]

You really do, don't you.

[what an odd thing to feel so incredibly fond over]

Quite lucky.

[timeanalyst]

Are you into some serious hand-holding too?
Would be pretty cool I think.

[annarr]

How serious, exactly?

[timeanalyst]

I'm talking arms linked, fingers entwined, thumbs brushing knuckles.
Like real serious.
Maybe with a little kiss or two.

[annarr]

[

oh no that does sound really nice,]

I suppose we'll have to try it and see xx

[timeanalyst]

And I guess I have to go find this Alligator Frankenstein!!

[annarr]

Shouldn't I come with? Build up to incredibly intense hand-holding and all?

[timeanalyst]

You're definitely invited if you'd like to come along on my quest. :)
Who am I to deny the best company ever??

[annarr]

You might have felt the need to make it some sort of particular hero's quest.

[timeanalyst]

Doesn't that make things more interesting??
You can't say no right?

[annarr]

To what? To you?

[timeanalyst]

To something interesting. An adventure.

I mean
I'd like it if you couldn't say no to me.
That would be a pretty big compliment.

[annarr]

Could there be a boring adventure, do you think? Something that qualified technically but just killed all of its own joy?

I could.
I have.
I will continue to.
I think that's the better compliment.
