Nope, too late it's canon from the author, horse boy gets Fridays off and goes to the bar

Oh, I guess so...

(The anthropomorphic Clydesdale enters a bar.)
(Clydesdale orders a beer from a keg.)
(Clydesdale looks over at a poorly-sealed window, remarking about how cold the breeze is.)

Wait, that's what you wanted, right?

Shouldn't the horse be singing? Doesn't it have to generate ... notes?

I don't use in-line notes. I might have an external text file where I plop down ideas for potential scenes, or lines I want to use later (I had about two dozen haiku I wrote for one story, for instance, that I then picked from at the appropriate times), but I'm fortunate in that I've never felt like I needed something there in the story document itself.

It's mostly laziness on my part, not wanting to bother highlighting the text, or going to a different document, and then just ranting at myself about how nobody needs a twelve-page dissertation on hammerhead shark claspers in the middle of a gay sex romp.

It's only five pages now!
