Man, we practically wrote the same thing. Except mine had a son instead of a daughter and the father had spent some time being a pirate. I also got to make an obscure reference to Monkey Island 2 at one point.^CoSMic DoRiS^^ said:LOVED it. just swap the gender of the narrating character and add in some nice depressing descriptions of this old man revealing his hidden past to his daughter the day before he died...and voila! it was more or less a story i had prepared coz it fit the quote really well. i didnt have time to include all the symbolism but i got most of it in, and may i say that i created a nice 'full circle' effect too... hopefully i actually get marks that reflect what i feel...which is fantastic!!!!
