I just wanted to stop by to ask if I was the only one utterly crushed by the loss of Alan Rickman. I just finished reading tale of the body thief and the entire novel he was the only gave that seemed to do David justice and now I will never know! Rest in peace Alan. We will love you always.

Thanks, @fallenwerewolf. I don’t really have a good, clear picture of David in my mind… I never considered Rickman for that role. I think he would have done a great job, and he was the right age, had the right kind of charm for it, and when I picture him as David, I see him with that little gentlemanly smile he had: 

That scene where he’s actually Raglan, I bet Rickman would have done an amazing job with that.

If we get a graphic novel adaptation of that book, we can still use Alan Rickman as inspiration! Also for fanart, very few ppl draw mortal!David Talbot…
