From: superquartz@vircom.com (AXEL BERUBE) Subject: darktales 1-3 Date: Sat, 6 Aug 1994 16:47:15 GMT This is the third part of the dark tales with the two first part ( I will post the dartales by groups of 3 next times, so you will be able to follow the story...if there's one! Sorry for the re-post.) Send flames or flowers at : <superquartz@gamemaster.qc.ca> --,--'--<@ Darktales (1) : @>--'--,-- BY THE WINDOW. At night. The moldy window frame is full of cobwebs and fly corpses. There's one who's still frantically moving. It's hard to survive when someone has clipped off your wings... Jimmy likes to cut the wings off those tiny beasts who come by the holes in the net. Sometimes, like tonight, he films their agony with his new "Migochi tricam" cybernetic eye, the top of the line in bio-cyber optic. ô By the window, Jimmy see an advertising zepplin. On the huge flying screen he sees a naked man. A mad punk is shooting him with a sub-machinegun. The smile, he doesn't bleed, his skin looks like rubber. And a synthetic voice says : "Super-skin by Biog/nia, the ultimate way to keep you alive !" Down, in the dormitory-street, a red haired man is stabbing a thirteen-year-old bitch. She groans in her blood. Jimmy didn't see her. The fly is dying... ----------------------------------------------------------------- Darktales (2) : Under the rain. by : A.B.Quartz @>--'--,-- ----------------------------------------------------------------- The sound of the night. The rain, the ever falling rain, the tears...And finally, the blood, the end. - Looks like she's meet her last boy, man. What a mess! Sure, a man who can fuck a thirteen-year-old bitch is the kind of crazy who can stab her in a dark alley. - Ya. - You don't look great, man. Is working "Vice" getting to you, or is it something personal? - ... - You know, in the morgue, we don't care anymore about corpses or anything... Muller watched the morgue boys drag the little body to the meat wagon, leaving a slick, shining trail of blood on the wet pavement. She was Japanese, with slit-eyes, pointed ears, whiskers and tail. A poor little soul, probably property of some crazy pimp who paid for her playbeing package. - Her name's probably Catty, ha ha...Look for a dog man...look for a dog! Muller was tired of this fat talkative guy. He was tired of the fucking rain, he was tired of this fucking job and life and everything. But deep inside of him, behind his skinweave and his colossal nanotech-rebuild-frame lay the sparkle, the very little thing that keeps a man walking. He was the kind of guy who rescued ladies without even asking for a kiss. He tightened his raincoat and headed for his car. The job was over for tonight but he knew he wouldn't sleep before morning so he drove to the Chatsubo. High above the street, Jimmy was dreaming of a golden girl with great wings... ---,---'---'<@ ################################################################# Darktales -3- : TECHNO-PUPPET. I don't like acids. I don't like life. So I take acids and I hate myself. I don't like hating myself so I want to forget and see something funny. Nothing's funny in this life ( fornication? money? pills? the slow rotting of flesh...) THAT'S WHY I'M GONNA TAKE THIS FUCKING BLACK PILL WITH THIS FUCKING BIG BEER! In five minutes I will come to life. I will feel the beat of the night in every little cell of my skin. < Hyper-life : that's like alchemically condensing a year of> < feeling in one night ; fast-forward option of this video > < life ; maximum sensorial input on the edge of the final > < OVERLOAD. > I hear the music, an old song : Morpheus laughing, Skinny Puppy, VERY LOUD. It's penetrating my body, grasping my brain, dragging my mind all over the bar. Someone's grabbing me, shaking me, shouting at me. Little gain-seeking-red-eyes : Zone. His voice said: "Entertain this cop, all night long" and the eyes disappear but the voice stays: "ENTERTAIN". The seduction chip kicks in: electro-acid feeling of desire. I need to touch the man, to feel his myomar muscles crushing me, to hear his breathing, his moaning. I need to smell the sweat, I need to feel his life penetrating my body like this very loud music... " FUCK, I'M COMING BACK TO LIFE !
