Subject: Fracture

Okay, so I finally managed to get around to reading your extensive back and forth and there's some awesome ideas in there. Sounds like a thoroughly thought out project.



One of the main things that caught my eye was the presence of the Moon in the 'flashbacks', whether it being direct or indirect. An idea I had for this would, which I really feel could tie the whole thing together, the kernel of truth in every story, could be that whatever the Moon character is seen doing in relation to the missing woman could be the truth. The Moon - woman relationship could be anything, from Moon seeing the woman upto meeting her, upto dating her, upto killing her, any set of stories, something so Earth shattering it fractured him into the 'people' you see. The story about the woman isn't thought out, but off the top of my head, I'm thinking he sees her, 'stalks' her, gets to know her, they fuck, something happens to piss him off, he kills her (each segment of that story would cover a new personality).



The stories could be told in a random order by the people, interrogated randomly, but if pieced together in the order they appear in the Tarot cards they could reveal the a chronological story, but, in terms of flashbacks, think Pulp Fiction, in the sense that the story can be told in a non-linear episodic narrative.



Some of that may not make sense, but get back to me, let me know what you think!
