You know the 2009 comedy Make the Yuletide Gay? Well...
"Henry, darling. My best mate in the whole world. Why are you dressed like your brother?" That's where the jumper came from. Philip bought it for him a few years ago and he never wore it. Except that one time when he went to a fancy dress party as 'provincial dad'. "Oh Christ, it's not that bad is it? This is—it's comfortable, it's winter wear. It's winter." "It's just…not really your style, is it? What's brought on the rugby shirt and frumpy knitwear? You know those half-zip things give me the ick." That makes Henry zip it up, even more self-conscious than he was a second ago. And then immediately pull it down again when the feeling of wanting to crawl out of his skin claws its way up his throat. "I'm going home for Christmas, aren't I? I'm trying to, I don't know, play down the gay." "Haz. Really."
I don't know that it will truly become anything, but I've done a quick 1k of mostly dialogue so far and I'm having a lot of fun. Especially looking up Percy Pig merch.
