Etcetera

I've been thinking more about the zombie-idea here posted. It's a pretty useful Conscious!Zombie concept, despite it currently being a Mary Sue on the battlefield of 300. *Sigh* There’s quite a lot of corpses there, ‘s only natural for my imagination to go in that direction.

Apart from a whole mess of stuff over at sickle_stories, I'm taking it easy. Which means, no work on A Tricky Business or anything else.
