igenlode: The pirate sloop 'Horizon' from "Treasures of the Indies" (Default)
I had an unusually bizarre dream last night, which came out as a Blake's 7 episode (although there was a lot of stuff with bicycles and cinemas earlier on that I have forgotten) in which Avon was for some reason condemned to death by being taken up inside a tall tower and left to stand in the darkness on a high beam there with only two vertical ropes on either side to cling onto for support... so once the ladders were taken away, the moment he lost his balance or became so exhausted he could no longer hold on, or was no longer able to stay awake, he would inevitably fall. Read more... )

I have a suspicion that it may have been triggered by reading Joe Simpson's anecdotes of mountaineering deaths on the Eiger yesterday, which featured several cases where climbers were eventually found frozen while still attached to their ropes or wedged onto their ledges -- I'm not at all sure where the B7 content can have come from, save that I was also coincidentally rereading the exchange Mei Bruges and I had about Blake/Avon slash last night while looking back over the records of my AO3 stats script. But Blake wasn't part of this dream at all, so I don't quite see the relevance...

I did, however, receive a review on "Chick or Child" on AO3 almost immediately after bewailing the lack of readership there (now up to 10 hits!)
