The Chaucerfic that never was
Dec. 11th, 2007 11:09 pmI was trying to write a sequel to The Knight's Tale, but it kept coming out wrong no matter how much I tried to fix it. It was kind of a one-idea fic, anyway. Basically, Emily and Palamon were setting up house together when Emily makes a joke about "the two prisoners of war together," and Palamon says "Wait, what?" or some such, and they tell each other stories about their past, and end up realizing they have more in common than living next to each other without realizing it for years. (I was going to put the synopsis under a cut, but I can't figure out how.) As a side note, I thought Emily was a very odd name for an ancient Greek, (well, Amazon, I guess) particularly one with a sister named Hippolyta. The first time I saw it, it reminded me of a Mary Sue.
