Plot
Love, etc was written some ten years after Talking it Over and is set ten years later. In the intervening period Stuart, the protagonist, has emigrated to America, remarried, opened a restaurant, got divorced and returned to England where he has set up a successful organic food business. Meanwhile, Oliver and Gillian and their two daughters live in a small flat in north-east London, Oliver still seeks success as a writer supported by Gillian's picture restoration. Stuart appears to have forgiven Oliver for stealing his wife and offers him a job as a driver...
gollark: Actually, I think billing the v-script creator would work fine.
gollark: You could say "v-scripts"/"t-scripts" or something, if you MUST shorten it.
gollark: Or, well, they can except they lose a minimum of 1KST there *or* I have to add tons of irritating code for fractional billing and interfacing with everything with that and it probably breaks in horrible ways.
gollark: SC and krist itself don't have companies, meaningfully.
gollark: If you had, I don't know, a service which takes krist and sends it back to you a day later for whatever unfathomable purpose, then if someone wants to just feed that 5KST, they can't due to the fee.
