Jonathan, am I right in thinking that the italics are Donnie's thoughts so he is effectively speaking out loud with intervening unsaid thoughts? I'm a bit confused here. Is he supposed to be a bit autistic? Think I could do with some notes perhaps. Grandma I understand fully or at least a lot better and I was getting into the flow of it with her story. As usual, your writing is without errors (although I wondered in the last para whether it should have been 'departing' as opposed to 'parting') The length is a whole lot better. I like the characters but just remain a bit perplexed (maybe it's me!) Thanks for sharing. Debbie

    Well, I suppose you're mainly talking about the first paragraph where Donnie heads to the first floor to watch TV. As for being autistic that is something I didn't set in my vocabulary. He is in fact talking to himself kind of troubled not knowing what to do so he's like "alright I'll resort to watching TV" because of boredom as no one wanted to entertain his thoughts. The words he's saying is one after another. So he verbally states his boredom and then internally debates whether he wants to watch TV. if that was unclear?

    As for the Powerpuff girls in italics maybe they should be in quotes. idk. it's coming from the TV. He is i suppose kinda talking to the TV

    If it offers any further clarification as I feel I might be confusing myself now, the italicized words are slightly mumbled but it's unintelligible so I was told to use italics? given the words are undecipherable because it's to himself?
