Chapter 1: Auto Mire

‘Life is unfair,’ probably the single most imparted lesson in human history after ‘don’t touch that,’ and ‘your face will stick that way.’ It’s meant to explain to a five year old a mystery that has stumped theologians and philosophers for generations; the problem of why bad things happen to good people. Alternatively I suppose it could also be a way to shut kids up when they started trying to use logic to their advantage, not that I really have what one would call extensive experience with children. My dubious parenting skills aside, though, the message itself is a pretty accurate one. Life, in my experience, isn’t fair. It doesn’t care about good or evil, right or wrong, justice or corruption; in the end we’re all just playthings in its sick twisted game.

[Chapter 1, Chapter 2,
Chapter 3]

I'll post something of substance once my brain starts working (This is my Friday, and my weekend is one day long)

But for now, current Pokemon team!

Right now my team consists of a plant serpent wearing some fancy goggles, a electric zebra with a spiked hard hat, a prehistoric bird raptor with a bag of shiny sand, a giant desert crocodile with wearing a magic bell on her collar, a ill tempered piranha with a strange evolutionary lump, and a sentient candle that feeds off souls and carries around a magic claw.

Oh yeah, guess who just beat Red in Soul Silver with a team of level 65 Pokemon on his first try? That's right, this guy.

( Cut for recap of the Pokemon Battle of the Century )

So yeah, needless to say my team is taking a well deserved rest now. They really pulled through there.

Time: January 29th of the year Two Thousand and Eleven

Location: The frozen north of Planet Earth's Western Continent, as reckoned by most of the inhabitants of said continent.

Status: Dire

Today is day 9 of my 12 day work week. I find myself with low provisions, no medicine, and desperate few hours of sleep. I can feel the madness setting in on me. Yesterday I found myself commiserating with the spirit of a Children's Trading Card. Today I attempted to walk the Dinosaur in front of the Science Museum, and when confronted by the police began to berate them for not doing more to stop the senseless transformation of innocent programs into Nulls by careless Users. Even now my mind wanders to thoughts of Zombie Survival plans.

Should future generations find this account of my trials, do not remember me as a tyrant, but as one who dared to dream of a world where weekends were still held sacrosanct.

I must go now, for the Raja spirit who likes to help me play card games has returned and I must banish him once more. Also, I should look like I am working.
