Spasms of free thought

January 12th 2014 Weekend dose of incoherency # 2

“...That's no good. It brings in too many unexplained facts at the last minute. Instead, let's backtrack and leave Linda and Michael and go find Gregg...who, in his shock of having seen Laura and Michael kiss, took out his time freezer device from his pocket and pointed it at the couple, who had caught him watching. With a click of the red button, the device shot a beam and encased Laura and Michael in ice...but everything else stood still too. The birds didn't sing. The River didn't move. The only thing that was capable of movement was Gregg, who now was pretty happy at the frozen sight.

Now, this small device is indeed able to freeze whatever moments you want in time..but its also symbolic because it's Gregg's way of achieving and maintaining control, or at least a semblance of it.

You see, Gregg was also like Michael, in that he wasn't actually who he says he was and he was deeply in love with Linda. Except he'd known about her since before her childhood because he was a time traveller from the future who had stumbled upon her picture in his time. Gregg was immediately infatuated and decided to travel back to meet Linda in the hopes that if she gets to know him, she might fall in love with him as he did with her...

Except that didn't happen.

Despite all of Gregg's actions to influence Linda and convince her to love him, she just couldn't act like he wanted her to. In fact, the more Gregg spent with Linda, the more angry he got because she wasn't anything like he wanted and he couldn't fix her at all, no matter how many times he attempted to. He even went as far as to go back in time to change her personality, but the result was the same each time he tried.

But, despite this, Gregg was determined to make Linda his and he had a lot to offer...he was handsome, he was cunning, he had a lot of love and advice and feelings for Linda and most of all, he knew her before she was born so he should have a say in how she lives!

Though he wasn't ready to share anything of who he really was just yet. Linda wasn't ready for that, aso he literally kept everything small (his life, his money, himself) so Linda would be ready for him...

“You will be mine”, Gregg muttered as he walked towards the statue of ice where his beloved was.
