#The House is Haunted

[aboutmercy]

tom at the farm / tom à la ferme: establishing that there is something wrong with the house, the environment, something wrong with the dead lover’s home, where in order to survive a web lies must be woven.

will add more onto this as a i read, but i found this bit interesting. you enter as a voyeur knowing that this house is essentially echoing with past hurt, and tom has to untangle his dead lover’s “false truths” at the place they were conceived.

Remember how, in the Touden party, everyone had to swap clothes when they changed races, since that was the only way they could feasibly find clothing that fit them in their new body types under such short notice?

Kabru and Mithrun had to do the same thing, and for the same reasons. They had to swap the bottom halves of their outfits to be able to accommodate to their new forms. Normal enough, right?

Normal enough until you realize that Kabru is still wearing his armor, which looks inordinately large on him. Which begs the question: why didn’t they swap the top halves of their outfits?

It’s because…oh god, I can’t even say it with a straight face…it’s because Mithrun’s upper body is too buff to fit into Kabru’s plate armor. Poor Kabru has to lug that thing around like a huge metal circus tent because Mithrun’s too fucking jacked to fit into it himself.

Buster Keaton - The Haunted House (1921)

[aboutmercy]

when a child first catches adults out - when it first walks into his grave little head that adults do not have divine intelligence, that their judgements are not always wise, their thinking true, their sentences just - his world falls into panic desolation. the gods are fallen and all safety gone. and there is one sure thing about the fall of gods: they do not fall a little, they crash and shatter or sink deeply into green muck. it is a tedious job to build them up again; they never quite shine. and the child’s world is never quite whole again. it is an aching kind of growing.

we should talk more about cities that are vampires. cities that are cold and wet and sink into your bones and stay there. cities that are hungry and want to live. dead cities that dont know they're dead and suck the life force of their people to maintain the delusion. cities with harbors that are actually mouths; one-way entries. cities that are devastatingly lonely and see consumption as love
