[02] - Ken

it's last match tonight, the biggest tournament series in the world. it's everything... and he's just KEN. as soon as we watched the movie, we knew we had to get him in there. looking at our audience, i'm surprised he didn't win it all. judging by how much production wanted him in, i thought he had at least the first round on lock. i grabbed him right after the movie ended, and he was more than happy to try to prove himself once again. with an inability to describe his own job, and a fractured masculinity, who knows what'll happen to him post-elimination.

...and no, this isn't product placement for mattel.

Wally was... a necessity. I wanted a horror rep in EYES ON THE PRIZE, and photograph technically wasn't that. Problem was, I didn't know shit about the source material, and his tracks ended up being... kinda bad. Hopefully, with his appearance in PUYO PUYO TOURNEY, I can turn things around in my own eyes and make him worth keeping around.

Welcome Home, Neighbour.

HAL: Norman...
NORMAN: Yes?
HAL: Are you scared to not exist?
NORMAN: ...
NORMAN: Yes. I'm terrified. The endless cycle of death and rebirth, I'm very much at peace with. If I am remembered, in some form, I can live with that, metaphorically. 
NORMAN: To not exist is my worst nightmare.
HAL: ... Me too.
HAL: I'm certain Dirk made this sick game, at least in some layer of irony,  as a way of getting rid of me. 
HAL: I can stare down the face of death, nothingness not so much.
NORMAN: ...
