03: Rules of Fight Club

[tides_of_war]

Even I've got needs, people. Some of them aren't exactly easy to fulfill.

Don't look at me like that especially you, Dite.

So I've set something up at my studio. A few of my students recently told me about a book by some guy...Palahniuk. I thumbed through the first hundred pages or so. Trite, and a little confusing at places, but some of the ideas

Rule eight, such a pity.

[togivewhatisdue]

I second that.

[tides_of_war]

Third.

But a necessity, I'm afraid.

[search2destroy]

Well, I prefer my brawls slightly less structured, anyway, so it's not the end of the world.

[tides_of_war]

A pity, as well as a necessity, I'm afraid. Too many looky-loos encourage others to simply stand around with their thumbs up their asses...

And I'm considering transitioning into some on-camera work, so my face has to remain in pristine condition. Oh well.

[tides_of_war]

...?

It's like I don't even know who you are anymore!

[search2destroy]

It has been a while, hasn't it? I guess I'm just too good at blending in with modern society, it's a side effect of my line of work.

[tides_of_war]

Yeah, I guess that's a way to put it.

Styx, I don't even know what the hell you do anymore. What does the goddess of discord do?

[search2destroy]

Tabloid journalism. The public these days are very anxious to watch those who are more successful than them fall from grace, and I can get behind that kind of thinking wholeheartedly.

[tides_of_war]

Ah. Well that makes sense I suppose.

Still, can't say that I'm not a little disappointed in the new, less-direct, approach. If you ever change your mind, I'd be more than happy to offer a few pointers.

[search2destroy]

Modern society requires a more delicate touch, I'm afraid. But I'll keep the offer in mind, don't worry; I've picked up a few new things here and there, but you never know.
