“…Ah? Is this working?”

“Good morning, people of the world. My name is Wolfgang Akire. I’m serving as the prison guard of this experiment.”

“We at MILGRAM have compiled 12 prisoners from Hope’s Peak Academy, each having committed a crime.”

“And it’s up to you— The viewers, to decide their fate. Forgiven for their sins… or unforgiven.”

“Enough about faux justice. Please, in the meantime. Let’s chat for a while.”

Closed starter;; Matthew @wickedxlovely​ Kai had been avoiding his sire big time. Any time the dusk came he was away from his room and somewhere else in the realm pretty sharpish. His urges were mostly under control so he didn’t want to be under his sire’s eyes. This time however he could sense him nearby and he froze the fear washing over him. Kai knew he was too close to even dare to attempt to escape. If he did he would be caught. It would only make things worse. He looked down to the floor clenching his fists. He decided to make the move to go towards his Sire, better to get this over and done with. His body language was all closed in on itself. It was pretty obvious he was not comfortable around him. The scene of his death played in his mind making him bubble underneath the surface. His eyes looked at his sires staring down in hatred but chickening out at the last moment and looked away. “Hey…” was all he managed to say. His throat not allowing him to say anything else. He was practically stunned into silence by fear. He was at his sire’s mercy.

This Griessmühle BLN located heavy assault Psycho Thrill Cologne TECHNO throw-back from 2014!

PSYCHO THRILL [@] TALKING MACHINES BLN 08082014

08-08-2014: Another typical club mix in a pure Psycho Thrill CGN vein, played by Claus Bachor for “TALKING MACHINES” at GRIESSMUEHLE / Berlin. SRY here for a few slight rumbles due to a skippy turntable and a partially distorted monitoring which accounts either for some of the “lil'skips” during the mix. However, it used to be a huge night due to the brilliant audience hangin’ out there - movin’ into any direction on the cutting edge of Techno -, the super nice work by the “Talking Machines” promoters and the very cool atmosphere of the whole “Griessmuehle” club as well.

Books We Read This Month (or tried to read)

Duke of Pleasure by Elizabeth Hoyt

‘But his eyes were black, framed by curling lashes, and he hadn't shaved and he looked like a highwayman with cynically twisted thick lips. He looked like one of those rogues the molls in St Giles loved to sing romantic ballads about in the taverns. A man born to hang. A man born to break a woman's heart.

’‘Hugh caught the man and had another thought, which was: Tits?’
