Myshka - Fyodor Dostoevsky x Reader

I can't believe this is my first Fyodor piece, but here we go... This is silly but the idea wouldn't leave my head for an April Fool's fic.

Fyodor Dostoevsky

He’s nothing but a silhouette. A wall of screens rises up before him, glaring like suns in the dim room. Information flickers across them in a constant, incomprehensible screed. You couldn’t read them even if you wanted to. 

He sits with his back to you, a ragged outline of darkness against the wall of brightness. A fur hat and fur-trimmed collar, only moving every now and then to look at this screen or that, his hands dancing across the keyboard like a concert pianist. You can’t see his face, but his hands are pale, long-fingered, moving almost with minds of their own, independent of each other. 

“I can feel your eyes on me.”

His voice is deeper than one would expect, from such a pretty face. Though he faces away from you now, you remember it well—sharp, delicate features, pale skin, shadowed violet eyes. The thought of being pinned under that stare again makes you shiver. 

You don’t know who he is, or what he wants with you. Just that he swept into your life, plucked you off the street, and here you are. 

Trapped, tense, waiting to discover your fate. Destiny hangs over you like the sword of Damocles. 

So far, all he seems to do is work, tapping away at his keyboard and humming to himself. Others come and go—a man in a black cloak, a jester in white who likes to poke at you and gibber nonsense—but no one seems to have a use for you yet. 

“Nothing to say, myshka?” 

His voice floats over to you, taunting. He insists on speaking to you, even though you don’t—can’t—respond. What would you even say? If you opened your mouth, all that would come out is a frightened squeak. 

It isn’t all bad. You’re given food and drink, somewhere to sleep. Whatever your purpose in this man’s grand design, it doesn’t seem one of suffering. He will keep you alive for as long as he needs you. 

Your silence finally seems to get to him. He turns in his chair, the flickering screens painting his features with uncertain blue-white light. 

Frozen, huddled, you watch him as he regards you in turn. A smile tugs at his mouth, an amused noise bubbling up from in his throat. Oh, you do seem to amuse him. Why is beyond you. Nothing you’ve done is remotely funny. Perhaps he simply enjoys your helplessness. 

“Look at you,” he hums, rising to his feet. “Still so frightened of me?”

His footsteps seem to echo through the cavernous room as he approaches you, picking his way easily between the wires that trail everywhere like vines.  He bends down to get a better look at you, his locks of dark hair shifting around his face as he tilts his head. 

Long, pale fingers reach for you and you cringe backward. The man lets out a low sound, seeming almost…disappointed. But that cannot be right. You know he takes satisfaction in tormenting you. Otherwise, why would you be here?

“Do I not give you everything you need, myshka?” he asks. “Are you hungry? Is that it?”

Freedom! you want to scream. Release me from this cage—

Suddenly, a head of white hair pops around the door frame, long braid swinging. The jester wears a grin like a carnival mask, his eyes crinkled with sadistic amusement. 

“Are you still trying to play with that pet mouse of yours?” he scoffs. “Just give it a morsel of cheese.”

Fyodor looks down at the cage housing the little mouse he plucked off the streets on a whim. Beady black eyes glare at him through the bars, tiny pink paws curled into miniature fists.

And here he thought the creature was warming up to him.

:P

Is it LARP or LRP?

So again, eons later, the LARP/LRP argument has risen its ugly head. Firstly I have to ask do I care?

I used to care very much. I felt LRP was as much definitively English as “Norwegian LARP” is Norwegian. We invented our own version and culture with no reference to the wider world. I was there. Chiselling the stone. LARP was the American invention- with boffer weapons, bean bags, wuss combat (in fear of lawsuits) and all that I assumed that meant at the time. The difference was important.

To be honest, I think some individuals called it LARP in the UK and I know some clubs did. I remember having a discussion with some players from a Basingstoke club (Adventure Calls?) who were new to our LRP events. They ran combat intensive linears, and had come to a Boozy Hick production freeform for the first time under the Adventurers Guild banner.

A “freeform” or “bar room brawl” is an interactive scenario, but the refs basically set it up and apart from a few set pieces leave the players to it. Usually in an interactive scenario I would have multiple plot lines running concurrently. At least one per ten players (although the Venn diagram of players and plots would have many intersections), I would write individual plots based on the backgrounds of the players and their desires for the event and I would run them under a sensible production name. “Boozy Hick” was meant to indicate that this was a less than serious social event in character. It was a laid back opportunity to muck about in costume. However, during the cursed “Saturday Afternoon Lull” I heard one of the new players mutter (and I still don’t know who it was) - “The Adventurers Guild - taking the Action out of Live Action Roleplaying.”

Now how I reacted and why I believe that was not the case is a story for another day. But it does show that for some folks the terms back then (late 80s) were even then questionable, perhaps interchangeable, and even held different nuances of meaning. The written record will show it was LRP because the magazine of the hobby “The Adventurer” called it that. However, I was the founder and frequent editor of said magazine and I had a strong opinion on the matter, so it may well have been down to me. Or not.

On reflection, I don’t care about the LRP/LARP argument (not least because the recent adoption of the term LARP in the UK means calling it LRP is as aging as putting a double space after a full stop, or wearing your glasses on a string, so I am done with it.) However, I am very keen that English LARP/LRP is seen to stand alone as a game-form, not least for the contributions we early pioneers made when we were literally making it up as we went along. Neither the Americans, the Norwegians, or even the heavily armed Belgians (another story) had any influence on how we made and played our games. LRP is an English invention. Fight me.

Welcome to Wonderful World of Darklords! In this episode, we discuss possibly the most iconic villain remaining to us: Tow Mater. Subjects discussed include:

The nightmarish vision of Cars 2, Pixar's horror masterpiece, in which everyone is forced to cater to the whims of a madman no matter how outrageous and unfunny he becomes;

The cosmic horror implications of a setting populated entirely by sentient cars, where all humanoids are presumably extinct;

Some thoughts of Mater's son, Tom Mater, being Carlos De Vil's car in the Descendants series, and how to incorporate that foreshadowed dark romance with Cruella's car into your game;

How to age down a movie in which Rod Redline is literally tortured to death onscreen;

And more!
