Continuity!

[erastes]

This drives me bonkers. Continuity is important. I know that it's difficult sometimes in mad action scenes to keep track of everyone, and I'm sure that if I was writing an orgy I'd be struggling to keep everyone organised and not know which him was who and who was doing what to whom, but otherwise, why is it so hard to have people actually enter the room before they speak, or actually take the baby before they have it in their arms? I've just read a scene where someone has someone else at swordspoint - and keeping the point at the man's throat he reduces the distance between them to less than a hand's width.

How - exactly - is this possible without running the other man through the neck, or dislocating his shoulder and possibly cutting his arm off? ARGH!

And another agent rejection. A perfect end to the day! *sends it out again*
