This “Site” Ain’t Lettin’ Up, So We’re Gonna Do More Than A Bit Of Remodelin’. I’ll Be

Log #02

Second day of these memory logs. Today, Henry asked me my favorite memory. And I said I’m at this dance hall in Harlem, right? Maybe mid-twenties. Maybe the night of January 7th 1925. It’s hard to really cast my mind back that far, you know? It’s all some kinda mishmash, memories existing at the same time. Or maybe I’ve just got a real crappy memory. Well, I’m standing in a corner — must not be a huge one for parties, or maybe I knew I was a bit queer — and I remember everything glowing all golden-like. High ceilings, all decked out. It’s a gas. Dancers all crowding the floor, a man spinning his sweetheart past me as he fixes his tie with the other hand. A woman laughing to my right. The smell of booze. And that music. That swing. I feel the music surrounding me in my bones, shaking me from the inside out, just like it’s shaking everyone else in this joint. Just coasting along to the vibrations.

And then — fewer people this time. The night’s winding down, fellas are going home with their dolls. We’re giving one last hurrah for the couples still knocking it out on the dance floor. These kids are a bit more sauced now, swaying and laughing and bumping into each other. They dimmed the lights some. I’m still sticking around in my corner. Nobody by my side now. And that music. Still loud as hell, ringing out the night, shaking me from the inside out. And that’s kinda it, I told him. Great night.

Which Heaven are ya talkin’ ‘bout? If you mean @fortunateisle’s Discord, I haven’t been thereabouts yet. It’s a bit of a trip and I figured I’d stand my ground here!

do u think tati would play fair if theres a tie? would she send *them* after you? (woud that even matter to u since ure so strong?) /gen

Ha! Ha! I ain't scared of that thing. Well, she agreed to have this contest in the first place, so I'm hopin' she'd play fair ('cause we sure are), but I ain't got a clue!
