Oppressor Posted October 15, 2005 Share Posted October 15, 2005 Everyday Tim will come to visit me. Stroking my back gently, he and I spend many quality hours together. Most of the time, his attention is usurped by this game called Run Escape but hey, I am not the jealous type! Its such a pleasure to be next to him - watching his eyes glued to the idiot box, following his fanatical hands as he poured his heart and soul into that game. Despite the pandemonium, his actions reflect a certain sense of rhythm and adroitness. Today Tim took me on a wild adventure. The screen showed the usual activities that has began its dominance over my best friend's life style but wait! Something was different.....I noticed the monitor was especially gloomy. Dead trees, bent branches and not a sign of green, oh the scene truly scared me! I watched as Tim's character moved cautiously over that waste land. I can sense a smidgen of fear in him but I can also feel that he was waiting for something, something I can't quite put my finger on. As I was dazed in curiousty, Tim suddenly began to tremble as a dark figure loomed towards him. Watch out Tim! A red splash and another was all that takes to send Tim scurrying through the woods. Dodging tree after tree, the nimble character was almost out of harm's way when an arrow shot across the screen and pierced its and Tim's hearts. I noticed Tim winced but the loading screen soon gained my attention. I was delighted to find Tim was finally back among his friends again. Why was he crying though? Then I noticed! His smurf colored sword that he had worked for so hard was gone! Shoving me aside, Time ran to his room and slammed the door. I wanted to comfort him but I knew he would be ok again tomorrow just as times before. I will patiently wait here for him until he comes to visit me again so we can share our cries and laughters for once more. Oh, life is good as Tim's mouse!

brettox Posted October 15, 2005 Share Posted October 15, 2005 Awesome short story! I probably wouldn't be able to peel off my eyes even if it were like five pages long. One thing that I could positively edify is the use of names being changed into more pronouns, but other than that I want to hear more from you :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doh! Let me fix it and thanks for your super uper duper positive comment! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dargonhuman Posted October 15, 2005 Share Posted October 15, 2005 Okay, that was weird. Interesting, but weird. At first, I thought the last line was a typo of "Life is good at Tim's house", until I realized it was a talking mouse. Nice twist there. Good work, spelling, grammar and punctuation are all proper and it's readable! I can't count the number of people's work I've read that are incomprehensible because they don't know the first things about writing; it's so nice to actually be able to read something without feeling a small part of my brain seize up as a result. I look forward to reading more. --Darg-- Part of the Star Traks network. (^^Clicky!) Irony: An amnesiac rediscovering they have an eidetic memory.

archimage_a Posted October 15, 2005 Share Posted October 15, 2005 I assumed that the story would be about a struggle of ones self. As the title suggested. Oh and it was thinking it would be some toy of some kind. Fair story though http://www.uzzisoft..../archimage.jpegWell I knew you wouldn't agree. I know how you hate facing facts.

Oh and it was thinking it would be some toy of some kind. Fair story though I was actually trying to play around with the words a bit. Mein Kampf can be either interpreted as "My Struggle" or "My Life". And the story is in fact a sort of diary entry by a computer mouse. :shock: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
archimage_a Posted October 15, 2005 Share Posted October 15, 2005 I sorta guessed that it could be 'interepted' but that that was my first thought. And it was more likey to to be a keyboard than a mouse, because mice can't type. :D http://www.uzzisoft..../archimage.jpegWell I knew you wouldn't agree. I know how you hate facing facts.

magicana_drofulcus Posted October 22, 2005 Share Posted October 22, 2005 Why have you named it after the book that Hitler wrote in jail? It may have those meanings, but still! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inner_Beast Posted October 23, 2005 Share Posted October 23, 2005 yea why name this post the same thing hitler wrote his first book on.... he wrote it when he was in jail. Alot of racist and hateful things in it, and alot of nonsense thoughts. Your story has nothing to do with any struggle, it seems the thing watchign tims character was perfectly content. your title means my struggle... i see no struggle.

archimage_a Posted October 26, 2005 Share Posted October 26, 2005 Hmmmm maybe though some sort of opening of the heavens some out there knows. But until then you can't say that it was Hitlers book, because it wasn't it was a string of words that he used to justifie what he was saying. Just like a name, it can have many different points, and there for is not in fact evil. Some people connect it to Hitler, who was not evil(Insane but not evil), but used it to covey ideas. Try outside the box thinking http://www.uzzisoft..../archimage.jpegWell I knew you wouldn't agree. I know how you hate facing facts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dragoncmd Posted November 6, 2005 Share Posted November 6, 2005 Either you are german (mien kampf = my struggle) or you are an avid fan of Adolf Hitler...? have you ever thought about the fact that its a cool name even if it was used by one of the most brillant, evil, and Bipolar men the world has ever known? An intresting side note: Hitler was bipolar so sixteen million people could have been saved by a few lithium pills if they had been around at that time.
