Rude Go Outside

Damn His momma was right when she said "Oh, my boy's so handsome--he's gonna break hearts!" Guess she shoulda reached in her own gene pool, changed the future--not for his sake. Maybe somehow cook up a different recipe for a son who don't hurt nobody. Steppin' on figures, number-crunching disadvantages to his well-being. Would really take some time on deciding whether he'd be so interested he'd never get bored, or so disinterested he's bored all the time. Momma shoulda changed her mind about havin a repressed ignorant and steely guy like him come out. Think of the father, every day asking his son "Goddamit, boy, when you g

Card-Carrying Vendor From

Mr. Boneless Jackson, come right in! Your seat is right where you left it. Let me give you an instance an inch of what could be a mile over of this situation let me help your mentality. For the small and sub sequential price of a handshake, this can all be yours. The vast, overlying extent of it all. The quiet electrifying taste of it all. Yonder dark...it's yours, it's shot and bleeding fresh dim, gift-wrapped in warm, solitary black velvet--sharp, yet soft as baby rabbits For you, there is a stocking on the walls, dripping with dreams--a perfect balance of air, light, dark color, me, the dead poet flapping in the choked breez

The Red Lion Meeting by tophat-riot, literature

Literature

The Red Lion Meeting

The Red Lion Meeting Click. The lighter's flame flickered for a millisecond. Another click, and the flame ignited. The stranger's gloved hands held a cigarette to pouting lips in the firelight. A candle lay nearby. He took it upon himself it light it for his protege, a polite gesture. A broad-rimmed hat tilted downwards shrouded his eyes in darkness, revealing soft purple tufts of chin-length hair tucked underneath. He was dressed in a navy blue vest and slacks. A matching jacket hung over the back of his chair. Tonight, everything would be decided. This night would be the final in this quarter. Across the table sat the Master of the Ci

Blossoming

The Blossoming Rose's mind laid in an endless chasm of complete darkness. Darkness forever on. She had the falling feeling again. Her eyes felt bruised shut, just like everything else. Due to her inability to open her eyes, her other senses picked up in sensitivity. She felt her clothes on her body; the grey sweater, the black body suit underneath, the way the suit's gloves had worn away to fingerless gloves, her mother's pendant around her neck. She left the leggings, and combat boots. Under the clothes, she also felt the sticky-ness of bandages, and the tightness of gauzes. Whoever had brought her to this room had undressed her. Rose coul

A Batorff 'Crimmus'

A Batorff 'Crimmus' Christmas had never looked so extravagant in the House of Batorff. Thousands of colored lights glowed fiercely around a great evergreen tree, propped up in the rear of the living room. Silver garland hung in wreaths around the great width of the tree, adorned with various glass ornaments, dotted here and there with streams of tinsel. Many of the expensive ornaments were fiery red, upon Christion's influence. Rose gave herself quite the pat on the back for such a job well done. One of her most ingenious decoration ideas. Christion was mildly pleased, and he showed it. Just barely. Not quite dressed for the occasion (even u

Recalling death of an Ancient

Cloud and Aeris Recalling the death of an ancient She held no remorse, only surprise and the fading light of the future when he slayed her. I remember the shining blade of his going through her back, downward stab through her chest, Trained to kill in one fatal movement. And there was no blood. That greedy sword of his drank it. She fell to the ground. And then the fight with Jenova. When it was over, my group said their goodbyes, and I carried her body into that freezing lake. Her face was peaceful, as if only in sleep. I released her body into the water, it fell like an anchor to the bottom, and I didn't stay to watch

Black Waltz In Cut-Time by tophat-riot, literature

Black Waltz In Cut-Time

Black Waltz In Cut-Time I never thought much of philosophy at first. Do as you are told, fufil your duty. No arugement. There were my associates, three chosen out of the mindless mass of mages to be improved. Made better for the general's top minions. The first failed in his quest, slain quickly by that young twit of a blonde. The second, much like myself, was haughty, proud that he would succeed. But he didn't. Slain just as easily as the first, only by four of the princess's little entourage. I held no remorse for the two before me. Only disgust that neither could get the job done. And then I was sent with the queen's little joker minions

Sentence by tophat-riot, literature

Literature

Sentence

The Sentence It had been the most beautiful day outside. The sky was that electrifying purple, sea-green clouds about, just an ordinarily lovely day. I walked behind the royal guards, keeping up with their long, sweeping strides. Each guard had the face of a stone statue; cold, calm, and dutiful. Also along came the RATE (Resistance Against The Emperor) group, with it's leader, Teioh. The first 5 members were there as well; including Yatre, the young archer, Morrisohn, the dagger expert, the 3 mage brothers, and the weaponry experts. But underneath their exteriors, I could tell each one wanted to celebrate, for our Holy Redemption was comi

My health is bullshit.

0 min read

Advanced Lyme disease. For fucksake, do people still actually get that anymore, or am I just that lucky...? I don't even know if it's from the time I got bitten as a little kid when I lived on the farm. Well, if they find anything bad when I get the 3-D heart ultrasound, here's hoping I'm not dead by 35. If I AM dead by 35, oh well, what can you do. I don't hold any grudges towards anyone, but they better bury me flippin' the bird anyways. An infected tick bite is what has been causing me constant head/musculature pain for the last couple of years. I'm sure it bit me during the summer or during some other bullshit warm weather. DOES EVERYON

Too much rain.

0 min read

All the rain in the world fell in like two days. I feel terrible for everyone that needs to be evacuated or has suffered in some way from the flooding--but in that same light, I was living in the basement of the old house for a LONG time, and while my room only flooded once, I was always vigilant about the rain after that. In that light, I'm grateful to live on the upper level. In other news, while I've only lived in this place for a few months, I'm already planning out what our new home will be like in the future. Both the misters and I are dieing to live in a house on farmland with a dog one day, but, you know, everyone's gotta do that wh
