i will say i had a moment re-reading that where i thought 'you might say ... he's not standing still, he's lying in wait' and if shakespeare fandom hasn't done something with parallels between hamlet and 'wait for it' i don't know the shakespeare fandom. (death doesn't discriminate / between the sinners and the saints / it takes and it takes and it takes ....)

anyway. thank you! i'm always happy to make someone sad about horatio!
