Here is an original short story inspired by the tone, style, and themes of Landscapers Episode 2: The Cinematic Escape
"Don't let them rewrite our story, my darling," Christopher said, his voice deep and smooth, echoing like a movie star from the golden age. "They don't understand. They can never understand what we have."
"Let them think what they want," he replied, pulling her close as the steam from a arriving locomotive swirled around them. "In this world, we are the heroes. We saved each other. That's the only truth that matters."
Suddenly, the music screeched to a halt. The steam cleared, dissolving back into the sterile grey walls of the interrogation room.
Susan looked down at her hands. They were trembling. She squeezed them together, hard, until her knuckles turned white.
Susan smiled, a genuine, radiant smile that never touched her lips in the real world. She took his hand. "They think we are monsters, Chris."
Lancing leaned forward, casting a long shadow over the table. "You buried them in the back garden, Susan. You and Christopher dug a hole and put them in the dirt like old trash. That's not surviving. That's murder."
