Someone should be running a contest for sequel storylines for both Margot and Robert (with an emphasis on the American setting):
For Margot, all of the alternatives I've thought of so far is that she:
a. buys a pistol and get a concealed carry licence;
b. calls Gloria Allred;
c. finds religion and marries a Republican 5 years older than Robert;
d. organises the next campus Slut Walk;
e. experiments with lesbianism;
f. re-locates to Minneapolis to take up job as assistant producer in small television news room. (Modern twist: soon hit on by bald boss.)
For Robert:
a. finally gets around to taking the dead cats out of the freezer and to the taxidermist;
b. buys a simple bed base for his mattress and finds women will now actually stay until morning;
c. buys the AR 15 he's always wanted and shoots up the cinema (sorry - so plausible in America it's not even vaguely witty);
d. goes to a doctor for his sore back caused by the sexual encounter, becomes addicted to opioids (see previous rider);
e. changes voter registration from Independent to Republican.
f. takes up sheriff job and finds mysterious 11 year old girl in the woods with psychokinetic powers.

who and who?
I think you might be joking, given the link in my post, but there's this viral short story in the New Yorker that all the cool kids (and me) are talking about. But it does contain sex.
Actually, I am waiting for the discussion at Catallaxy to start on it. That'll be cringeworthy, I am sure.
