Dichotomies

Our story begins with the old Gallant Pantaloon finishing a story about Belted McFly, a modern day sort of superhero... or post-modern since we're post-apocalyptic.

We're contrasting him against the old-fashioned, stupid sort of hero in Vitis Trousers, who succeeds despite the fact that he shouldn't - he's mainly lucky.

I think the older girl, Polly Esther Leggings, is more into the Belted McFly stories. She's more realistic, and appreciates McFly's message of being able to accomplish whatever you like if you put your mind to it. The younger boy, Short Pants, prefers Vitis' more fantastical tales.

Where does this take me? No idea at the moment.
