It was not a stupid prompt; it was a fantastically glorious prompt. And it was enormously fun to write.
I'm expanding it, because you're right, it does need to be a novel. And there are some scenes that need to be added, and I want there to be more Richard, and more Bolingbroke, and John of Gaunt, and Thomas's reaction to being rescued by his young wife, and something about Original Robbie earlier in the book to show more of who he was, and why Robbie-Rhisiart at the end is someone that Richard can accept emotionally as part of his life and...and...and...
You get the idea.
I'm very flattered that Anne reminds you of Magrat! Because Magrat rocketh.
And the ENDING, OH, MY GOODNESS. JUST THIS ONCE, EVERYBODY LIVES.
Yes! (Except for Green, but he's in a state where he'd rather NOT be living.)
