The city is no better. The fire seemed to have torn off their false guises from the townspeople. Once all the doors were open for me, I was greeted with smiles, thanked for the work, they promised patronage ... now the doors are closed. Nobody smiles. An ugly cripple without a craft. Nobody wants to deal with ugliness, another thing is a beautiful face, fame spanning several cities, wealth and honorable skill. The human soul shows itself to be a rotten, fetid substance. The world is ugly, people are even uglier.“Enough, please, stop! I can not take it anymore!" I can't stand it, trying to get out of this despair. All the pain, all the anger, all of his life goes through me, making me feel absolutely everything, like I'm a naked nerve. My fingers feel it again, but only for a moment, and then the torture session returns. Painfully. Too painful. I try to escape from these memories, but in vain."Please, I want back!"“You've gone too deep. You will have to see everything to return. Be

“Don’t misunderstand me,” the Man’s eyes sparkled demonically, “I have nothing against people who ooze with fetid vices to suffer. But even for me , this method of reprisal is too cruel.— Good Samaritan! Lis couldn't resist. - And bury them as fertilizer? Also a gesture of mercy?“There is no mercy in this city, and I haven’t seen it in the outside world either!” Your patroness is a perfect example of this. She poisons assistants so as not to risk her own life! - only from this slight wave of his rage, Fox pressed into the back of the sofa, squeezing his temples with tension. “The dead need to go somewhere. And from such Hellebore-saturated bodies, flowers grow better, more often, and the effect of them is much stronger.- How many were there? the voice trembled.- More than fifty. Of course, not everyone was poisoned by Hellebore to that extent. Some, like you, calmly drank "magic teas". They were especially fun ! - from these words, the insides of the Foxes made a small somersault.

- No, of course, when we first met, none of us dreamed of traveling! - Fox grinned, moved closer to the table some seemingly reliable chest, and with the tacit consent of the Man, confirmed by his slight nod, sat down on the chest, wrapped in a blanket. “That damned Saintfor brought us together. Our parents left the city before the birth of each of us, but we regularly visited our grandparents. So, once in a clearing near a waterfall, we gathered together. By that time, Zoe and I already knew each other, because we studied at the same school, but the guys met for the first time. It is easy for children to just start making friends from the spot, as if they will never part, and after a joint summer, forget about each other for a year, so that “friendship forever” will be renewed next summer, but this was not the case. We always found a way to get together every weekend. We have grown together since elementary school. Therefore, almost all interests were common ...“Except for Zoey's ch

The girl could not stand it and unfolded the letter. In a beautiful calligraphic handwriting in a letter after a long greeting listing all the statuses and regalia of the sender and addressee, the lines were painfully pricked:“ In accordance with the adopted agreement on mutual observance of borders, I demand the extradition of two violators who crossed the border of the territory of the Circus at night without permission. The penalty for violation of the terms of the contract will be appointed by the Director of the Freak Circus, called the Man in the Mask, in a personal meeting with the violators.A personal meeting is scheduled on the day of receipt of the letter before noon.From accompanying the guilty, I strongly recommend to refrain .‍​‌‌​​‌‌‌​​‌​‌‌​‌​​​‌​‌‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​​‌‌​‌​‌​​​‌​‌‌‍"Why all this?! I was in his arms right in his tent. I myself asked to be made a weirdo!” Lis thought with a heavy beating heart.“Madame Claudia, please,” the girl breathed out, suppressing panic

She made it to the very beginning of the movie. The ticket clerk waved his hand with a smile instead of handing the girl a ticket. The hall is empty, it was possible to choose any row and any place. The girl with a smile settled down closer to the screen, and prepared to immerse herself in an unusual interpretation of Carroll, called "Alenka's Dream" from the Czech director Jan Svankmajer.Absorbing the world of Lynch's surrealism, the girl experienced exaltation at each scene of the cruelly straightforward logic of Alyonka's dream. Even if the Fox was a ghost for this City, one outlet in it was created especially for her, even though only she knew about it. However, closer to the middle of the picture, the images began to blur before my eyes. Lis hurriedly rubbed her eyes and closed them for a moment in the hope that this would help ...“ Before my eyes, a pretty girl in a dress from those that the Tea Witch provided me. Looks into my eyes... into the eyes of a Man. The girl's face i
