-Classics (both of writing and music) and other things I (Dirk) am interested in.
-Metatext, self-inserts, authors and media with mysterious-ass felines.

~~~~~~
Led through the snow,
By the moonsetter’s hand,
All that was wrote, washed away.
Our surrealist ventures, mere echoes of truth,
But where will we go, now we’re long past the end?
It’s only begun, as the eight teams descend.

JB: Well then. It seems that Dirk has brought me back to work on another one of his projects. I would’ve thought he was purely done with this charade, but that is besides the point.
B: Sure is. 
JB: And for my return to Purgatorio, I’ve brought a recently made friend of mine to help me with my “hosting duties” or whatever he called them.
B: Hello. I’m Beatrice! And no, I’m not magic. People keep getting their hopes up about that.

I was supposed to get bosses for the winners bracket and I was able to find some rejected contestants lying around on Dirk’s hard drive to spruce up and reuse. Onto the show, I guess.

something has been forgotten

It was over.
The youtuber hit the ground.
The cowboy drew his last breath.
They had survived. 
But at what cost?

Squid pants heavily from the floor, processing what just happened. Saved by her nature, saved by the lightning. If it wasn't for that, she was 𝐝𝐞𝐚𝐝. She doesn't know how to react. After hyperventilating for a few seconds, her mind returns back to earth, sheathing her sword and eyeing the hand on the floor... her mobility will allow her to survive for a while, but it's either learning to be ambidextrous 𝒏𝒐𝒘 or getting a replacement. She'll think about that after she reunites with everyone. Despite the situation... she's glad to simply be 𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐯𝐞 right now.

Norri looks at the reflection in the sludge, putting the newly-acquired hat atop their head. This is their life now. It's their job to make sure no more friends, no more allies, 𝐧𝐨 𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐞𝐥𝐬𝐞 dies. Lil Darkie was a test of their determination- and they passed. They get up, pick up their bat, and start heading off. Ready to make more preparations and bash the skulls of that god-forsakened QOTD Brigade 𝒊𝒏. Losing their left arm is only a temporary struggle that they'll figure out.

The two survivalists leave their battlefields- mirrors of each other, but with the same objective in the back of their minds.

The singing of a hummingbird can be heard, perched on a nearby tree, before flying away.

Despite everything, if only for a few moments.... things are peaceful.

How beautiful.
