Elfen High 2 (OOC 8, Closed, Will it Hurt?)

[Constaniana]

I am going to post soon (after I wrap up a few emails), but I'll make an interlude to note that Tom Clancy is now dead.

Tom Clancy, though a man I disagreed with on many an issue, was quite a good writer and I recommend you all read The Hunt for Red October if you can. It is actually a very interesting novel (and well-researched - actual Navy personnel arrived at Clancy's door because his depiction of a military submarine was too good).

So yeah, there's that book recommendation and piece of real life news.

I've only seen the film so far, but it seemed like he really knew his stuff.

Number 4.

Mind, that one is one of his works I actually enjoy - many of the rest dissolve into blatant American Republican political tracts and get tiring to read.

He has a new one coming out in December. It's a shame he won't be around to see it happen.

Help me. Please, God, help me. I’ve lost control and I need help.

The far right members of my party are insane. I don’t know what they’re thinking, and I don’t want to know because it would be too horrifying. I’ve tried to explain it to them over and over and they don’t listen to me. They don’t listen to anybody. I say to them, nobody wants a government shutdown, Obamacare is the law of the land, the president was reelected and elections have consequences, and we are only in charge of one branch of government.

I say all of that and they just look at me with these cold, dead eyes. Christ, It’s chilling.

Look, these people scare me. They scare all of us. Have you heard them talk? They’re animals, these people. There are only 30 or 40 of them and we outnumber them, but they have so much power, you see? They could end me like that. And they wouldn’t feel a thing because these people do not feel. They are out for blood: my blood, the president’s blood, the blood of any American who doesn’t agree with them.

I hate them. I hate all of them. And yet I also fear them.

I want to admit something: I’ve cried in my office every day for the last month. During this shutdown I’ve sat there, panicked and alone, scared to death about the next thing they’ll make me do. When they knock on my door, my heart stops. What are they going to make me say next? How are they going to force me to embarrass myself next? Did you know I was once known as a relatively moderate, shrewd politician? That was before 2010. Before the horror began.

They haunt my dreams at night. I have this one nightmare where I’m about to ask for a vote on a clean continuing resolution and then one of them—I think it’s Steve King from Iowa—looks at me with this eerie smile and says, “No, John. No you won’t.” And then the rest of them are suddenly standing behind him and they all chant in a chilling monotone, “No, John. No you won’t.” And then I wake up screaming, “No, John!!! No you won’t!!!” and I’m crying, and my wife is crying, and I’ve sweat through my sheets.

Help me. Help me make this end. Don’t reelect these people. Reelect good, normal people and I promise I’ll be a good speaker from now on. I won’t lie down for the president by any stretch of the imagination, but I’ll work with him if it makes sense and I’ll fight him when it makes sense. That’s how it should be. That’s how it will be if you help me destroy this menace.

I know I helped create this monster, and I apologize. I am so, so sorry. I thought I could control it, but I was wrong. I just need your help to defeat it. Will somebody please help me? Please? Please? Anyone?

HELP ME!!!!!!!!!!!

This is a good horror movie plot.

Posting this here and AM's RMB because that way I'll be sure that Night'll read it: as soon as Elfen High's finished, I'm leaving this site. So I hope you finish as soon as possible. I will try to log in once a day, so that I can reply to any posts that need to be replied to. Otherwise, I'm out. Done.

Thank you for staying with us, Indi. I hope that it, whatever it is/was, gets better

Certainly. It's effectively what I'm doing as well, other than more OOC posts.

I do hope you hang out in the OOC and AM's RMB if you can. Your presence is nice.

I read Rainbow Six. Quite nice.

Then, I don't give a fuck about him being an hardcore Republican. He wrote some good books.

That's what I think of Orson Scott Card.

I actually get a lot of shit for that, which puzzles me.

[Nightkill the Emperor]

Agri, I need a post from you.

Jade laughed quietly, and shrugged. "Honestly, I'm not sure; I'm just the messenger. Courier. Retriever?" She frowned, and nodded out towards the car, lowering one of the walls slowly. "But yes. Basically, Crowley wants you - for some reason, he didn't tell me."

"Merde." Richard muttered again. "Alright then. I don't have too much of a choice. I assume we'll be going to wherever Crowley is by way of teleporter?" he sighed. "My name is Richard Michaelson, by the way. Son of Ivy Green and Calliel Michaelson. A human-angel hybrid, first in...a long time. Nobody really told me the specifics." he admitted. "Who would you be?"

Jade might remember Ivy Green as one of the students who had been killed when demons invaded Elfen High all the way back in 2018, when she had been a mere student. Ivy had also had a small crush on John Calhoun back then, when he was less of a dickhead.

What are the books generally about? I need new reading material during winter break.

Military/Political Technothrillers. Some have an heavy Republican political bent and frankly suck, others instead are much more military or espionage focused and are also better.

That'd be quite a change from what I usually read. Which ones are the best in your opinion?

I found Rainbow Six nice, and Night already suggested The Hunt For Red October.

That's why I found his name familiar. There are video games based off of those, right?

Yep. Very loosely so.

How polite.

Apparently, my mother tongue English teacher, a very British lady from Durham, Northern England, has been substituted.

I am getting an Australian in her place. This is going to be fun.

Has the Australian taught for twenty years in the inner outback?

They told me she actually brings a boomerang on herself and throws it around in the classroom, so, I'd guess she did.

That's an inherent Australian skill.
