Too subtle? Naaahhh... perfect!
I admit, first reading it, I went over it quickly - never seen
MI, never read MI, never seen a MI fanfic. Started to wonder where the
'dark' stuff was, hit the last line, paused, read it again.
Thought, cool, he burned the place down.
Thought some more, read it again.
Thought, coooooool, he _killed_ everyone!
I don't really know who anyone was (well, vaguely), but I got the
point. Doesn't need to be made any more explicit. Only line I had
trouble with was the 'contents of the floor' one, which he stuffed into
crawlspace. Just read kinda confusingly. <shrug>
Now, if _all_ MI fics were like that... I'd probably read much
more of 'em!
