This is *amazing.* The characterization is brilliant, the tone is just right, and the DETAIL...
It's no wonder Amy was the life and soul of the Leadworth theatre group. Rory remembers sitting beside Amy's parents in the village hall, the three of them grinning like loons as a 15-year-old Amy took her third curtain call as Juliet. He also remembers trying to comfort a 15-year-old Amy as she wept in frustration because Aunt Sharon wouldn't allow her to join the theatre group.
So fantastic. Mem'ing this-- I know I'll want to reread.
