Thanks! He's a bit different from other ghosts, for reasons which will eventually become apparent. Sir Nicholas isn't drifty or unable to remember things, after all.

I plan to post a segment or two every Friday or Saturday until it's all up. I'm just getting to the epilogue now-- think it'll shrink to less than 18 parts when all is done.

Thanks again for your meta discussion. I'm still going back to it to sift through what I might be able to use.
