La vecina del cuarto

Otra vez me lo has dicho, mater. Otra vez me has sacado a colación la vecina del cuarto. Lo entiendo: tengo la misma edad que ella cuando su vida saltó por los aires. Ella también sufrió un mal episodio con un hombre. Ella también estuvo a punto de quitarse la vida. Pero esta vez ha saltado el músculo. Me he encabritado y te he replicado que estoy hasta los ovarios que siempre me adviertas que…

The not so subtle metaphors about Sandman: Overture

The not so subtle metaphors about Sandman: Overture.

It requires Dreams working with Desire, and most importantly Hope, to save The Universe.  I love your hammer subtlety, Neil.  I truly mean that.

You’d be surprised how many people missed it…

[theotheranas]

The most mesmerising implication for me is that, after Overture, in the first volume of The Sandman where he searches for his tools, Dream challenges a demon who possesses his mask, and they play the game. And Dream wins because, after the demon calls himself the Void, Dream wins saying "I am Hope".

Then we didn't know that he had been there and had seen Hope in action. And I choose now to believe that his smooth smirk while he says her name is because he is recalling from his memory the girl no one else's ever met who saved creation.

Sometimes I fear I am too sentimental.

consider: Diana making friends in the 1920s

Phryne: So I did the only thing I could in the circumstance. I stabbed him in the shoulder. 

Diana: Perfectly reasonable. 

Phryne: And don’t–wait, perfectly reasonable? 

Phryne: Diana, I think this is the beginning of a beautiful friendship. 

consider: Phryne “waltzes straight into trouble in a fabulous outfit” Fisher and Diana “doesn’t understand ‘subtle’” Prince getting into Shenanigans and giving Jack Robinson an ulcer.

Also Phryne’s always dressed like a fashion plate, yes, but her clothes are all, to an article, as functional and comfortable as humanly possible.  She’d dress Diana up like a doll and Diana would love every single article of clothing.

My friend told me a story he hadn’t told anyone for years. When he used to tell it years ago people would laugh and say, ‘Who’d believe that? How can that be true? That’s daft.’ So he didn’t tell it again for ages. But for some reason, last night, he knew it would be just the kind of story I would love.   When he was a kid, he said, they didn’t use the word autism, they just said ‘shy’, or ‘isn’t very good at being around strangers or lots of people.’ But that’s what he was, and is, and he doesn’t mind telling anyone. It’s just a matter of fact with him, and sometimes it makes him sound a little and act different, but that’s okay.   Anyway, when he was a kid it was the middle of the 1980s and they were still saying ‘shy’ or ‘withdrawn’ rather than ‘autistic’. He went to London with his mother to see a special screening of a new film he really loved. He must have won a competition or something, I think. Some of the details he can’t quite remember, but he thinks it must have been London they went to, and the film…! Well, the film is one of my all-time favourites, too. It’s a dark, mysterious fantasy movie. Every single frame is crammed with puppets and goblins. There are silly songs and a goblin king who wears clingy silver tights and who kidnaps a baby and this is what kickstarts the whole adventure.   It was ‘Labyrinth’, of course, and the star was David Bowie, and he was there to meet the children who had come to see this special screening.   ‘I met David Bowie once,’ was the thing that my friend said, that caught my attention.   ‘You did? When was this?’ I was amazed, and surprised, too, at the casual way he brought this revelation out. Almost anyone else I know would have told the tale a million times already.   He seemed surprised I would want to know, and he told me the whole thing, all out of order, and I eked the details out of him.   He told the story as if it was he’d been on an adventure back then, and he wasn’t quite allowed to tell the story. Like there was a pact, or a magic spell surrounding it. As if something profound and peculiar would occur if he broke the confidence.   It was thirty years ago and all us kids who’d loved Labyrinth then, and who still love it now, are all middle-aged. Saddest of all, the Goblin King is dead. Does the magic still exist?   I asked him what happened on his adventure.   ‘I was withdrawn, more withdrawn than the other kids. We all got a signed poster. Because I was so shy, they put me in a separate room, to one side, and so I got to meet him alone. He’d heard I was shy and it was his idea. He spent thirty minutes with me.   ‘He gave me this mask. This one. Look.   ‘He said: ‘This is an invisible mask, you see?   ‘He took it off his own face and looked around like he was scared and uncomfortable all of a sudden. He passed me his invisible mask. ‘Put it on,’ he told me. ‘It’s magic.’   ‘And so I did.   ‘Then he told me, ‘I always feel afraid, just the same as you. But I wear this mask every single day. And it doesn’t take the fear away, but it makes it feel a bit better. I feel brave enough then to face the whole world and all the people. And now you will, too.   ‘I sat there in his magic mask, looking through the eyes at David Bowie and it was true, I did feel better.   ‘Then I watched as he made another magic mask. He spun it out of thin air, out of nothing at all. He finished it and smiled and then he put it on. And he looked so relieved and pleased. He smiled at me.   ‘'Now we’ve both got invisible masks. We can both see through them perfectly well and no one would know we’re even wearing them,’ he said.   ‘So, I felt incredibly comfortable. It was the first time I felt safe in my whole life.   ‘It was magic. He was a wizard. He was a goblin king, grinning at me.   ‘I still keep the mask, of course. This is it, now. Look.’   I kept asking my friend questions, amazed by his story. I loved it and wanted all the details. How many other kids? Did they have puppets from the film there, as well? What was David Bowie wearing? I imagined him in his lilac suit from Live Aid. Or maybe he was dressed as the Goblin King in lacy ruffles and cobwebs and glitter.   What was the last thing he said to you, when you had to say goodbye?   ‘David Bowie said, ‘I’m always afraid as well. But this is how you can feel brave in the world.’ And then it was over. I’ve never forgotten it. And years later I cried when I heard he had passed.’   My friend was surprised I was delighted by this tale.   ‘The normal reaction is: that’s just a stupid story. Fancy believing in an invisible mask.’   But I do. I really believe in it.   And it’s the best story I’ve heard all year.
