And at the moment I%27m hung up on something where pre-readers might really help... but I don%27t have any.%0D%0A%0D%0AI%27m struggling to find some good phrasing for a scene I%27m writing%2C and want to use a typhoon analogy to the inevitablity of its aproach... but for the life of me I can%27t think of one%21%0D%0A%0D%0ASo%2C here%27s the basic setup%2C with the serial numbers filed off in a vain attempt at spoiler prevention%3A%0D%0A%0D%0Atwo of the charecters are having a very important conversation that is going to affect the rest of their lives. She loves him%2C but he realises she%27s to much the best friend to ever be his wife... and he%27s trying to break that fact to her.%0D%0A%0D%0ANow%2C since this is happening at school%2C everyone knows this sort of thing inevtiably draws a crowd%2C right%3F Which in turn draws the attention of the teachers on yard patrol... one of whom has recieved the dubious nickname of Typhoon. Yet%2C when said teacher approaches%2C he sees not only the crowd%2C but who they are gathered around... and whos friends are actually keeping the worst of the crowd at bay%2C he simply nods%2C as if realising whats going on and continues on his way without disrupting anything.%0D%0A%0D%0ASo%2C can any of you think of some good descriptive text for this%3F
