The Dear Chorus, Dear Narrator Letters
I do not know when you shall recieve this letter. I hope that it finds you in good health, and sans that God-awful facial hair you were sporting upon our last meeting. Because I care not for your protestations of its masculine ruggedness, Narrator, it is an eyesore, and it pricks upon my every positive aspect. Not to mention, my chin.
Rose is of choleric temper. She fares badly without her brother to placate her. She fears for him. As I fear for you. You and your dignity, you bearded abomination.
The Masters are moving. The stairway lies beyond the Styx. Be wary.
Regards,
Chorus
Chorus.
Guild and I have found the Turner. But we are pursued. We flee to Solomon's belly. Meet us as twilight falls on Xerxes.
The beard remains.

The Negatives: Arch-Villains for Hire!
The Negatives: Arch-Villains for Hire
~Light needs darkness. Good needs evil. And I need a drink.~
R: When I tell you that I am a Bad Guy, I want you to understand exactly what that means.
It does not mean I dress up in spandex, call myself the Doominator and go around tying up the Good Guys in provocative positions then soliloquising while they attempt their daring escape.
It means I will kill men, women and children. I won’t do it because I have to, or because my Daddy touched me in a bad place when I was young. I will do it because I’m paid to. Or because I feel like it. Or just because I fucking can.
Although...there is some spandex. It’s a Kevlar weave. But it is spandex. And I did tie a damsel to some train tracks once. But that’s beside the point. I certainly won’t be having some kind of plot-device induced Sunny Delight epiphany half way through the Trilogy-
B: It’s a Trilogy?!
R: -I’m EVIL. Shoots-babies-in-the-head-then-feeds-them-to-a-goat EVIL. Is that understood? I will NOT reform. Not going to happen.
B: Except, it totally is. Cos who would want to read a story about a bunch of jerks, right Roth? Character development, man, seriously. It’s right here in our contract, next to ‘collateral damage minimal’, see?
R: Shut UP, Bastille.
B: My name’s not Bastille. It’s Steve the Mildly Malicious.
R: Uh-huh. Can I get back to the prologue now?
B: Be my guest. [Mutters] Priscilla. Also, what’s the point of putting mysterious letters in front of our dialogue if we’ve both already mentioned each others names??
R: I hate you so fucking much right now.
B: Fangirl interpretation: take me now, Bast-baby! Throw me down on that gurney and mount me like a cheetah-
R: ENOUGH!
B: Alright, alright. Jeez. Take a deep breath. Let the homo-erotic subtext work its magic.
R: ...what?
B: No-thing. But if you’re not up for that, I’ll settle for bromance.
R: ...
The baddest clichés in town
The baddest criminals in town (the only criminals in town) so yeah, the baddest criminals in town
Roth. Bastille. Loki. Isaac. Ishmael. Specs. BC. Sue-Mary. And Gary.
All powerful narrator called Blooperman.
B: I'm a Robot!
L: ...that's it?
B: That's it. Well, I'm also blonde. And I like boobs. And ponies.
L: Huh. Ponies are cool.
B: Yes they are. Are you gay?
L: I'm Loki. I'm immortal, and forever young. And I like to cut myself.
R: Let me get this straight: you're eternally pretty and impossible to kill, and you intend to utilise these character traits by bitching about it.
L: Yup. I'm also your long lost clone/evil twin.
R: I see.
R: I’m Roth. I’m evil.
B: And hot.
R: Yes. Evil and hot.
G: I’m Gary. I’m dead.
B: That sucks.
G: Tell me about it.
S: I’m Spec. I’m just some guy.
R: Get out.
S: Or, I could be your generic self-insertion techno-geek character.
R: That works.
Sue Mary: I’m your reformist love interest!
R: No, you’re not.
Sue: Yes, I am!
BC: I’m BC. I’m the black chick.
R: Just...why?
BC: Two birds, one stone.
R: [Brandishes gun] You could be crippled too.
BC: I’ll pass.
R: Spoilsport.
B: Baby, you, me and Wonder Woman could show you two birds and one stone. One rock. Rock hard.
BC: ...
B: Like a threesome. And a penis.
BC: I gathered.

Divine Comedy: Abdiel Fedele
Divine Comedy: Orfeo Neroli
"I'm not the Lord of Sodom. I am the Lord of sod'em, though."
"My Maestro has that rare kind of beauty, that blossoms best when broken. Like the maharaja's ruby, the apple of the idol's left eye, scattered so it may spread it's many spider legs upon the crown's of Kings."
Divine Comedy: Serafino Vasco
"Aah, Death is a prudish strumpet. Each day I tempt it mercilessly, and each day it eludes me."
"We are all whores to our own salvation."
"Sleep, sleep, we gorge upon sleep. Sleep is for the dead, and the walking dead. No sleep. Let's fuck instead, like babies in a Moses basket, sucking Chiron off as we ride the Styx bareback, all the way to Hell."
Serafino Vasco (Fino, Rafi, Michel)~ burning, serpentine, crow
Orfeo Neroli (Nero)~ deprived/darkness, orange blossom
Abdiel Fedele (Abey)~ (Paradise Lost) he who defies Satan, faithful
Ettore Ilario~ hold fast, cheerful.

Twincest world: Abel's requiem
Monday, 13 September 2010
Twincest world: Bloodsucker
Hm, methinks I'll set twinworld in a fantastical plane, for creative freedom's sake 8D every set of twins is born with their own sort of powers...very Xmen, I know, but meh, cliches are cliches because they're GOOD. Anyhoo. Their society is a sort of religious-mania, obsessed with strength and perfection and rigid moral perceptions. A society born of oppression, as the external world, superstitious, would shun and murder and banish twins as bad omens or tools of the devil.
Romulus/Remus, Cain/Abel...why must one always kill the other? The ritual of a fight to the death upon reaching adulthood is a product of the Cult of Cain- in the belief that a twin is only half a being, and upon defeating the weaker, must consume them to become whole again (YUP- eat them, yikes). The rebels, the Abellians (hee) a group of escaped 'losers' and disillusioned 'winners', have a spy among the priests who prepare the corpses of dead losers into dishes- any who are revivable, or still alive, he rescues.
In order to fool everyone into thinking the meat (stew) Flight is served really IS Fight, the cook rips out Fight's left eye and tosses it in. It was already damaged during the duel, anyway. Fight wears a patch, then has a glass replacement, in later life.

Twincest world: Fight and Flight
First set of twins 8D one is albino...obviously, but they are identical, technically. They suffered TTTS in the womb- Twin-to-twin-transfusion-syndrome. Basically one twin (in this case Flight, right) becomes the 'donor twin'- they become a placental filter for their bigger, stronger sibling, pumping blood for both. The larger is basically a parasite who slowly starves it's twin to death. If the donor twin survives they are likely to suffer anemia, heart failure, brain damage, and physical lack of development...
In his later madness, Flight whimsically experiments with reversing the process- by drinking Fight's blood and keeping him near starvation. It doesn't work, and Flight's colours don't starken- although interestingly, his brother's do fade. Not to the rabbit shock of white hair and red eyes, though. But by then Flight is only playing, anyway. And Fight doesn't complain. How can he?

Hetalia: London & NY
Smoking/binge drinking/knife crime. Faded scars from blitz...fire of London? Vulgar London's bridge is falling dooooooown~
Met NY...Great Wars, sent over gifts/weapons to sustain. Demanding reparations? --> NY- Green hair, lime, Statue of Liberty. Yellow cab tee, one 42nd street sleeve...Broadway...Wall St? I <3 NY OTL. American eagle, stars n' stripes jeans.
:'D Pretty sure this has been done before....Capital cities being personified along with the countries n'all...but here be my perception, done for visual reference for a fic I'm writing, since it's 9/11 ._.

What is betrayal?
Def 1: The quality of aiding an enemy. Sooo...countering the ambitions of a supposed ally. But if you're countering them then you're not really their ally at all, are you? And you're not really your enemy's enemy. Le FUCK.
Def 2: The breaking or violation of a presumptive social contract, trust, or confidence, that produces moral and psychological conflict in a relationship between individuals or parties. Wow, what a dicky answer.
...I'm still confused.
It's when...you build something up with the driven intention of breaking it into a state worse than it was initially. Except that's kinda clinical. Betrayal is treachery, it's treason, it's two-faced, it's a broken promise. It's knowingly hurting someone who holds you above most.
???
~~~
"Do you hate me? Good. Now turn that hatred into anger, and fight."
...thus, were Fight and Flight born 8D
