Story Prompt 56
In a world plagued by darkness, where the skies were a permanent shade of gloom and the land lay shrouded in despair, two figures emerged as opposing forces. One was hailed as a hero, revered for their courage and selflessness. The other was branded a villain, feared for their ruthless ambition and disregard for life.
The hero, adorned in armor gleaming with the promise of protection, stood tall against the shadows. Their every action spoke of duty and honor, a beacon of hope amidst the encircling despair. But beneath the facade of valor lay a heavy burden—the knowledge that to save the world, they might have to make the ultimate sacrifice.
Across the realm, the villain plotted in the depths of their fortress, surrounded by flickering torches and whispered secrets. Their gaze pierced through the darkness with a chilling intensity, driven by a singular obsession—to protect one individual at any cost. For them, the lives of countless others paled in comparison to the value of that single soul.
As fate would have it, the paths of these two opposing forces collided on a fateful day when the skies trembled with impending doom. The hero, with sword in hand and determination in their heart, confronted the villain atop a windswept cliff overlooking a desolate landscape.
"You cannot comprehend the magnitude of your actions," the hero declared, their voice ringing with conviction. "You would sacrifice the lives of innocents for the sake of one."
The villain, unfazed by the accusation, met the hero's gaze with a chilling calmness. "You speak of sacrifice as if it were a sin," they replied, their tone laced with icy resolve. "But what is the worth of a world devoid of the ones we cherish most?"

Superfan's Short Movie Reviews: "Argylle"
For my first movie theater trip of 2024, I felt that it was best to start off with something that's not to be taken seriously. Director Matthew Vaughn's latest effort is an enjoyable action spy comedy. It's got a well stacked cast, balls to the wall action sequences, and numerous twists and turns that, despite being a little confusing at times, is engaging enough to hold your attention. This popcorn flick is one good reason to head back to the movies this year.

Been spending time with my great grandma calling on me to practice something similar to what she did in her life. I'm open to it but trying to find how to make it work considering it was American folk magic but she learned in a different region

I have everything planned out, just gotta write the sucker! All I’ll say is King’s Cross is the name of the series, not the first fic.

Have you heard of “Invasion” on AppleTV+? I was looking some something to watch and I decided to give it a try. So far I’ve only seen one episode… it’s intriguing but I hesitate to watch more.
As the title suggests, it’s about an alien invasion but the angle is that it focuses on the humans characters, not the aliens or special effects. It features an international cast. The first episode folllows a small town sheriff (Sam Neill), a Long Island house wife, and a Japanese astronaut. (Not all of these characters survive the first episode).
The Sam Neill portion probably hints at the aliens most (crop circles) but it emphasizes Neill and his meth troubled town more than the aliens.
The house wife portion is probably the best. Golshifteh Farahani’s character appears to have a loving family - husband and 2 kids. The alien aspect is hinted when all the kids at school get nose bleeds. She tries to reach her husband all day but he never answers. That night she has a confrontation with him. I thought her performance was terrific.
The astronaut portion is also good… subtlety hinting at a secret relationship. And it has a big surprise twist involving the aliens.
I hesitate going forward because:
The focus on the character building is slow moving. I had the urge to fast forward.
There are 2 twists that made me feel I was wasting my time getting to know some of the characters. Will that happen every week?
The series was released in 2021 and didn’t get great reviews (47% at Rotten Tomatoes). Although it’s been renewed for a second season.
It’s created/written by Simon Kinberg. He’s written 4 X-Men films, although one was good (Future/Past) the 3 others were terrible. His recent film “The 355” (which he wrote & directed) has an RT score of 24%.
As I tried to decide whether to invest more time, I learned that a major plot point (spoiler alert) involves a few human children can some how telepathically “hear” and communicate with the aliens. While other aspects of the show seemed unique, this telepathic children trope is over used and a writers cheat (Kinberg) to resolve the story. So I’ve decided to not watch more. (But Golshifteh Farahani is very good in the show and I’ll look out for her in the future.)

Oshi no Ko. The REAL Don't judge a book by its cover"!
Ever since the announcement for this anime came out, I've been reading the manga, and it is truly a ride. The pain is real, and it sets the reader up for emotional failure. The worst part is, it is shit that happens in real life too! The literal first dozen chapters were so tough to read, but I somehow managed to get caught up to the manga. It is so heartfelt, and so real. It has revenge, depression, and acceptance. I recommend it to anyone who likes very dark twists and turns. The outline may look happy and fun, but when I tell you shit hits the FAN so quickly! It is brilliantly written. (Also, it is made by the same author who crafted "Kaguya-sama: Love Is War", so it's bound to be good!)
