Inline stage directions (line end)
Stage directions at the end of a line stay on same line as dialogue. Use six spaces to indicate right-justification.
Aligning indented dialogue
When aligning the second half of an interrupted line, as here with "Pardon, sire!", align for the plain text version, taking account of how the markup will look in plain text. In this case, the small caps tags will be dropped in the plain text.
