Sisyphus Fable

D'angelo 2022-04-20 09:02:04

I wish it could be christmas every day.

One minute equals a thousand years.

The stone rolls down again and again, but only pushes it to the top of the mountain again and again.

The myth of Sisyphus is repeated again and again.

Joe smashed radio after radio in Daddy's Cabin, but Wizzard's songs were still with him. Don't look out the window, that is the daughter who died in the wind and snow, she is not Joe's daughter.

In Horror Cruises, Jesse repeatedly kills his companions, and the game ends again and again but never ends.

I used to like playing "Infinity Sword" very much, reincarnating again and again, getting killed again and again, killing people again and again.

A fable of the "cyberpunk" era.

Joe trapped in a minute, Matt blocked by everyone.

-

When Joe saw the pregnancy test stick, he thought excitedly that he wanted to be a father and was eagerly planning the future of his child - but Beth wanted to shed the child.

Joe excitedly called Beth "bitch".

Beth blocked Joe, erasing all traces of him.

-

Beth never put Joe on the block list again.

At first I was puzzled as to why a not-so-heavy quarrel would be the reason for the complete severance of the relationship between the two.

Joe doesn't understand why he experiences such "social ghosting".

I also do not understand.

-

The law of shielding also applies to descendants. Joe couldn't see the child Beth gave birth to, he had only one last way.

Beth spends Christmas with his father every year.

So every Christmas, he makes a pilgrimage to the Beth family's hut.

The child grows up gradually, but he can only see a mosaic forever.

He was in tears, but he could only tell from the outline of the mosaic that it was a daughter.

/

"She's dead."

-Death means the shielding law is invalid.

Joe saw her.

For Christmas, he bought Christmas snowballs for his daughter.

Carefully patted the little girl who built the snowman on the shoulder:

"Darling, Hi."

I thought it would be an affectionate drama about a father and daughter recognizing each other, but it was the final reveal of an emotional betrayal.

The little girl turned her head and had an Asian face.

White Christmas quotes

  • Harry: Ultimately the only thing you're worried about is the transition from one state to another, and that can't hurt you because it's it's just a state change.

  • Matt: It wasn't really real, so it wasn't really barbaric.

    [...]

    Matt: She's only made of code, she's not real. Fuck her!
