Scream It Until You're Coughing Up Blood - An Early Medieval Punk Fairy Tale

Reader mode
I think taking the high road there was a mistake, but oh well

[X] Focus! Something is wrong.
 
Guys consider that if we follow her we could also become a Fae creature of the woods and leave behind this falsehood that we've been living.

Is this a terrible idea? Yes. But given the protagonist's seemingly increasing revulsion/ alienation from humanity I'm feeling like it's time to run off and become a fairy.​

Is that what we want though? To fully abandon our humanity?
...
On the other hand, I am curious as to precisely how much fantasy this fairy tale is...

I love the writing. Some parts remind me of Samuel R. Delany's Dhalgren, with its mythical, fairy-tale aspects. Perhaps this isn't so odd, since that novel was essentially 'proto-cyberpunk,' and this is medieval-punk.

Tbh, I'm pretty on board with getting spirited away.

And if she's planning to cook us in a stew or something, it's still a bit too early for the heroine of that kind of story to make her escape.
 
Okay what the hell was with the swing in that last update. How the fuck is even contemplating theft enough to make the girl of the story come to think of the sister she loved as some kind of monster that will drive her away for all human company and that some she is vermin for thinking that 300 hundred ounces of Silver is not justified recompense for what is taken when a murder is committed. Murder will all was be a worse crime then an theft committed in the night. So can we please not feed in to this spiral of unjustified self loathing that is driving this poor girl insane. Also it is surprising how many people want to throw her sanity away completely and get turned in to some kind of satyr that can't even talk.

Lets follow the fae if she has bad intentions we are probably doomed anyway wearing that bracelet she slapped on us.

Have you considered that being a satyr is really fucking awesome?
