    Summary

    Major scenes from the middle of The Odyssey, going over Hades, the Sirens encounter, the killing of Helios'/Apollo's cattle, and the time on Calypso's island. They are rewritten in a canon compliant-ish way that analyzes the psychological impact on Odysseus and how he reaches a psychological breaking point to try and provide an alternative explanation for why he spent 7 years on Calypso's island.

    Summary

    The record player survived from this damage. It was still playing a classic guitar at the end of this tragedy. On such an unprototypical summer day, on such a rainy day, Gawain, the dream marker, was not in their home or on the stage of this cheesy theater, distanced from any action. He left or ran away, like Bediever did, like Lancelot, and like Tristan himself, in some special time, for some meaningless reasons.  

    Yearning from a steam siren leads Tristan to draw back to reality. 

    Bus delays as usual. It is still snowing. Now he is in the rare (maybe not that rare), post- industrial city. Here is the dock. Snow is covering all the buildings. The dock is a black point and the main roads are the black lines. Together, there is a stave or a paper strip in the boîte à musique. He should be a poet. Depression is his personality rather than a mental health issue. 

    So he comes back to his memory again.

    WARNING: Including some description about mental health issues

    Summary

    Oh, a long week it was.
    Party after party, performance after performance.
    The court mage was all worn out, unlike the court jester, who was still bouncing off the walls and entertaining every darkners that came across him.

    Summary

    “So, this was your plan? To ‘take me out’, as the youth say?” Seam asked, a soft smile on their face. Jevil gulped down the last cracker.

    “IS THAT SO UNHEARD OF? LIKE I’VE SAID, I MERELY WISHED TO SEE YOU, YOU. LIKE YOU SAID ONCE, WE HAVE MUCH CATCHING UP TO DO! SO TELL ME, FRIEND, HOW DO YOU DO?” he rhymed with some delight. Seam laughed gently.

    “I fear there is not much to speak of, really…”

    “OH COME ON, SURELY THERE’S SOMETHING!”

    ***


    Jevil takes Seam on an unexpected date to talk of old times. Things go... sour.
