I saw a post about how there are like 12 cigarettes in each pack but Harry can only use a pack four times which obviously means that Harry smokes multiple cigarettes every single time and I haven't been able to get the image out of my head....
Kim Kitsuragi: "Alright detective, what do you want from McDonalds?"
You: *Look up at the menu* "Hmmmmm..."
You: The dim light radiates off the electronic menu. A variety of items are shown, all affordable and seemingly very delicious. The items were all conveniently portable and could all easily fill your empty stomach. Burgers, chicken nuggets, fries.
You: Yes, a *Happy* Meal. It is a small children's meal inside a little red box with a big wide yellow smile. The contents seem to be just like any other meal on the menu yet something seems to draw you towards it.
[Inland Empire-Medium: Success] It's happy. The notion of finally feeling truly happy washes a wave of excitement over your worn body. It must be a gift from the gods.
[Drama-Easy: Failure] It seems to be the honest truth my liege. After all, who would lie to someone as cool as you highness?
You: "I want the Happy Meal with the hamburger"
Kim Kitsuragi: "Detective, you know that's a kids meal right?" one of his eyebrows raises "There's no way that would feed you. Get an actual meal" He points to the other side of the menu with all the normal sandwiches.
You: "No Kim, I want the Happy Meal. I haven't felt happy in so long."
Kim Kitsuragi: His lips begin to open in attempts to correct you but quickly close, looking back to the cashier with a audible sigh.
Kim Kitsuragi: "One number 5 and one...Happy Meal."
McDonalds Cashier: "Girl or boy toy?"
[Authority-Trivial: Success] A boy toy? Yeah, that would definitely affirm your masculinity.
[Rhetoric-Trivial: Success] Or a girl toy, it's ok to experiment. Don't always have to be a patriarchal pig.
You: "I want a boy toy"
McDonalds Cashier: "Alright, that'll be 12.34 reál."
Kim Kitsuragi: Reaching into the pocket of his jacket he pulls out a small leather wallet. He withdraws the requested amount and hands to the cashier.
Kim Kitsuragi: "Keep the change," he turns to you moving his head sideways to motion to the tables.
Kim Kitsuragi: "Come on detective. Let's sit down."
You: You follow him to the red cushioned booths, sitting down into the soft seating. Years of use have cracked the faux leather exposing the yellowish stuffing inside. Kim seems to be reviewing his notebook occasionally looking up at you to see what you are doing. Sticky stains have been left on the table keeping you down to it.
McDonalds Cashier: "Um...Kim Kit-sor-ag-ee?" he scratches his arm as he places the greasy brown paper bag and the bright box at the counter
Kim Kitsuragi: There is a look of slight annoyance on his face as he walks up to the counter to grab the food. Bag in hand he sits down placing the bag on the table. Reaching inside he grabs the wrapped up burger and box of fries pushing the Happy Meal towards you
You: This is it baby. You ecstatically grab it tearing it open to release its items. First there's the burger wrapped up neatly in disposable plastic, then the small fries, then questionable apples, then finally the small toy. It appears to be a baby blue bear made out of hard plastic, cheaply made and can only be barely considered a toy. [Authority-Easy: Success] Oh yeah. That's the most manly thing you've ever seen. Don't you feel good?
[Inland Empire-Easy: Success] No you don't. This isn't really making you happy. Maybe you should just stop eating?
You: No! Maybe the burger makes me happy.
You: Desperately you grab the sandwich and unwrap it. It looks like shit. Almost like someone threw it together then stomped on it. This isn't looking promising.
You: It's an easy task to sink your teeth into the stale buns. Nothing goes together. For starters the pickles taste like sour rubber. Grinding in between your teeth the artificial cheese and low quality meat is making you cringe. You still feel the exact same. What a let down.
[Inland Empire-Easy: Success] You'll never be happy again. If this can't do it, nothing can.
[-1 Morale]
[Electrochemistry-Easy: Success] Of course there's away. You just gotta party more.
[Volition-Challenging: Success] No. That's definitely not the way to go about it. Maybe pick up a new hobby? Go have fun with friends.
[Logic-Trivial: Success] You have no friends. All of them are dead. Idiot.
[-1 Morale]
[Half-Light-Trivial: Successful] Maybe you should just kill yourself. Endless abysmal silence would do some wonders.
Volition: No not that either! You have got to have some friends! Even one!
Half-Light: Like who?
[Encyclopedia-Heroic: Failure] Ummm...
[Electrochemistry-Heroic: Failure] Shit...
[Logic-Heroic: Failure] Hmmm...
You: Suddenly you feel flesh on your hands and look up. It's Kim, looking extremely concerned at you.
Kim Kitsuragi: "Harry! Are you ok? You dropped your burger and just started shaking and crying." he leans back resting her hands on the table anxiously looking at you
[Esprit De Corps-Heroic: Success] Its him.
You: What?
Esprit De Corps: This is your friend. You're only friend. Through lows and highs he has been there for you. After everything he's seen he's still there. Despite being forced to be with you, there is a bond. Genuine, human bondage.
[+3 Morale]
You: "Yeah...I'm fine Kim."
Kim Kitsuragi: "Im glad." He sighs relieved and smiles faintly at you
You: You manage to crack the Expression again. Thankfully not suggestively. It just seems to be the only way you can psychically show true joy.
Harry: “I’ve been really into horny music lately.”
Kim: [Composure - Heroic, Success] “Detective, what are you talking about?”
Harry: “Yeah, that horny music. Music that fucks, hornily.”
Kim: [Composure - Godly, Success] “Detective, I do not think this is a sensible way of referring to your disco tunes.”
Harry: “No! Not disco tunes, horny tunes. Listen.”
Kim: “Harry, that really will not be necessary-”
Harry: *presses play on his cassette player.”
Instrument of Surrender: 🎺 🎺 🎺
Harry: “See, horny music that fucks.”
Kim: [Composure - Impossible, Success] “Ah, detective, I think you mean *horn* music, and yes it does ‘fuck’ but I don’t think you should talk about your ‘horny music’ in front of minors.”
Cuno: “The fuck you say, pig? Cuno’s heard the word ‘horny!’ Cuno invented the word ‘horny!’ ‘Horny’ is old shite to Cuno.”
I was reading this shitty horror novella, and one detail that really stuck out to me is that this girl main character (who wore a nightgown throughout) was surprised by her period, and out of shame took off her soiled underwear and hid them. this wasn’t her first period or anything, it just caught her off guard. which, sure, that happens. but she then proceeded to walk around the house underwearless for the rest of the novella. I was reading this like………so is she just freebleeding??? is she leaving a trail everywhere she goes? what’s happening here? is the nightgown white? is she bleeding up the place in her white nightgown while everyone else is too polite to comment on it? she has multiple conversations with other people. are they blind? do they not care? is this normal?
after I finished the book I looked up the author, and it was a cis dude. that was a big ohhhh moment. like he just didn’t know…..that he wrote a novella about a freebleeder. he didn’t know that he was creating this insanity-inducing situation with no explanation. but did his editor not know? did nobody who initially read it know? why didn’t they know? what’s happening?
Every single time I look back at my failures, the steps I've taken that have led me down a less-than-ideal path... the mistakes I've made that weigh heavily on my mind, I remember one thing that eases my guilt. That any low I have fallen to or may fall to, I know I will never fumble the bag as hard as this jackass:
Actual fucking dumbass. This douche had Mizu herself giving up her path of revenge to settle down and rear horses with him. She loved him, actually fucking loved him and gave herself wholeheartedly, and he gets scared 'cuz his badass bride wiped the floor with him in a spar.
Remember folks, you can fail as many times in this godforsaken life we have, but you will never be as big of a failure as this dick.
Hey soo I really wanna read a eruri fic post ACWNR . And even better if It highlights a bit of Levis life in the underground , preferably not short . Im obssesed with these fics but sadly I already read all the popular ones so I was wondering if u knew any underrated ones or any recent fics like this ?
Sure thing! Here's a list of classic post-ACWNR fics, in case you've missed any. I update this from time to time. And here's some newer post-ACWNR fics I've come across. I've read some of these and really enjoyed them, others are on my reading list.
i know it's supposed to be funny but alistair/wynne banter is so devastating to me... he's literally nineteen and has no other stable adult figures in his life...
