Sorry, angevin2 for messing up your lovely community with my strange and obscene speculations.
Are you kidding? Strange and obscene speculations are what I do! You should read my serious scholarly work! ;)
Or the margins of my class notes. My LJ doesn't really convey that I frequently have imaginations as foul as Vulcan's stithy.
I'm thoroughly knackered after a long week so haven't got a whole lot to contribute at the moment, but it seems too like the whole point that once he actually gets the crown he hasn't the first idea what to do with it (other than, you know, keep on killing people, which had heretofore worked for him) ties in. In the sense that what people really desire is desire itself, so that when Richard actually achieves what he's after the game falls apart (or, to be deconstructionist about it, the entire narrative becomes untenable)...
