Notes
Rufus remembers a childhood of McDonalds and flush toilets and cars, science classes, bullies, and the fact that he wasn't the town freak only because nobody could out-freak Amy, at least not in Leadworth. Leadworth was the town. His name was Rory Williams.
The men still call him Rory, an unofficial agnomen, a nickname. His father will be pleased when he hears Rufus is so popular.
This is a gorgeous, thoughtful, historically accurate exploration of Rory Williams, the Last Centurion, the plastic Roman with a human heart. And it sounds exactly, exactly right for the 20th-century Rory, as well.
