You think you know--what's to come, what you are. You haven't even begun.


Level 9 - Cocytus

This is the deepest level of hell, where the fallen angel Satan himself resides. His wings flap eternally, producing chilling cold winds that freeze the thick ice found in Cocytus. The three faces of Satan, black, red, and yellow, can be seen with mouths gushing bloody foam and eyes forever weeping, as they chew on the three traitors, Judas, Brutus, and Cassius. This place is furthest removed from the source of all light and warmth. Sinners here are frozen deep in the ice, faces out, eyes and mouths frozen shut. Traitors against God, country, family, and benefactors lament their sins in this frigid pit of despair.

Hot damn! Time for some frozen 'ritas! (pulls out huge blender and jacuzzi tub of mix).

I came too fast to bring the whole fire, but I brought a torch to light something with. Maybe we could break off a bit of Old Scratch's tail, since he seems to be busy eating. Anyway, I owe the tightwad a bit of tail-pulling. Cheap bastard owes me twelve bucks.

So who is he?
He's my husband.
Well who in the damn galaxy ain't!

If memory serves the way out of hell is down Satan's back, through the other half of the word (Satan is at the center of the world) and up the island of purgatory.

Once we make it to Eden up top, which will involve passing through a wall of fire that will cleanse us of sin, the path to heaven should open to us and we will no longer be forsaken, in the religious sense at any rate.

You gonna guide us through all of that, take us somewhere else, or stop guiding us?

PR, last time an ex wrote to me, it was ten pages on why I was going to burn in hell. It came accompanied by a creepy statue of a ring-wraith.

So, now I'm burning in hell with the fun people, so it isn't all bad. You want we should send the ex some evil karmic vibes? Or a hex? Or just, you know, point and laugh?

*sigh*
I'm not sure what pisses me off more; the fact that he finally got in touch with me to "apologize" by just writing another e-mail, or the fact that he doesn't seem to even know what it is he needs to apologize for.
I have a whole response written out but I haven't sent it yet. Happened last time, too, and I never did end up sending it. But I'm more inclined to send this one because I want him to know I don't accept his pitiful little apology.

*pat pat* Sorry I scared you Penguin. Don't worry, it would be very hard for someone not in a position to break my heart to make me as angry as he has made me. Over and over again. You would... really... have a time making me that angry.
thank you for fixing my emote!

Nice to see everyone again! I spent all of this week in mind-numbing boredom at work.

PR, I don't know if your e-mail server allows this, but maybe you could block his address. It would avoid hearing from him in the future.

PR, you can block addresses. It is a very effective tool. He can get around it by changing his email address, but is he that obsessed/annoying? Or, write back to him and tell him you would prefer not to correspond with him. Or, shoot him...politely.

Can I go with that last one? At this point it might be the only way I can get closure.
That's all I want, some kind of closure. I don't know if talking to him would do it or just piss me off more.
Gah, I have such a headache.

I have no idea what he did if it was just your breakup or if there was a hell of a lot more or even something else entirely, but if you think he doesn't know then tell him what he did to piss you off so much. Its the only way I see to work towards some kind of closure.

You said, "he doesn't seem to even know what it is he needs to apologize for," so just tell the bastard. It doesn't matter how obvious it is, if he's not getting it then leaving him there failing to understand isn't going to end it, which means no closure.

That's kind of the direction I'm leaning in, too, Chris. I'll spare you the perhaps boring details because there are a lot of them and I don't have the energy right now to tell the whole story. It was sort of just our breakup, but it's mostly the way he handled everything. He handled it very badly, even though I gave him chances to backpeddle and not fuck up quite so much. Rarg!

He sounds like a lot of guys I know, and it is a problem with most of us guys: we don't get hints. Sometimes you just have to be blunt, even if it hurts feelings at the time. Otherwise, the message never quite penetrates the testosterone fog around our brains and we still behave like the mostly clueless boobs that we are. I'm not trying to suggest that we are stupid, but that communication is best done very directly with a man, especially when relationships are involved. After all, we have two heads and only enough blood for one of them to work properly at a time.


On another topic, who set up that drink luge on a higher level? We have plenty of ice here, so let's do some partying!

So who is he?

I had a shiny, shiny night! Hooray for actual browncoats in my area!
Screening went well, and I'm now apparently the founder of the Northern Colorado Browncoats. I just suggested it and everyone gave me their e-mail. Was pretty shiny. Not sure where it's gonna go; just start with the e-mailing I suppose. Maybe we can get some kinda site up.

Anyway. At least my ex of doom didn't manage to spoil my night!
For the record, I'm one of the most direct people I know. Tell me if this is direct enough: "You should tell me now whether you want me to be in your life because you are pushing me out of it. And if you push me out of your life completely, I am not coming back." Is that direct enough? I would have hit him over the head with something, but this was over the phone. He still did not give me a direct answer. I wasn't the indirect one in this situation.

But I am not thinking about that gorrammit!
Ok maybe a little. But at least it didn't ruin my night.

Oh yeah to OnTheDrift; got to meet her at the screening!

Did any of my Forsaken bretheren attend a screening?
