"The music reached into her and she felt a world so beautiful no one would ever want to destroy it. Laughter, and love, and light that made you sparkle inside, and great thoughts welling up and emotions pouring out and - and - such mysterious internal living." Subjunctive? Melodramatic trash? From a novel I'm working on. Four years of Latin and I've forgotten subjunctive, pluperfect....
Ah... if you remember the word pluperfect, it's all still in there somewhere! I think you've captured the "mood" of it to a degree: we know music can't reach into you... oh, but it does! And the word "felt" as opposed to "thought"... This is why I'm left wondering after the Tran video, and various thoughts--is writing subjunctive/ly more about a willingness to dig into a way of being, and working to articulate...? Thanks for posting a piece of your work!
