Sketch out the events before and after your dead-drop scene from last week and three weeks ago.
Possible backstory from earlier? Lachlan and Livonia met each other as the result of a kidnapping adventure story, and have kept in touch with each other despite their social disparity.
Scenes included mention of prior surveillance by Pembroke - more to this story than starting with market drop scene?
When did Lachlan learn carving? Possibility of other coded messages?
Possible earlier scenes:
- carving the item while on return trip from New Glasgow/New Edinburgh (need to figure out which city Livonia’s family inhabits - nobles as colonists? In the absence of a plantation system in the Darien colony, what are they there for?
- earlier scene where they set up the arrangement with the toy seller? Need to make him an actual character, rather than a piece of the scenery.
- run this through either short form template or STC to see where the market scene fits?
Possible later scenes:
- Conversation with Livonia. How do they arrange more face time?
- Party invitation? Butler not the final word…
- Are there any circumstances in which a young man in trade could be in the company of a young lady of quality? Chaperones? Public events?
- Another rescue? Rewrite original rescue outline to include this scene?
