Happy birthday, @glittermermaid18!

When Darcy proposed a long weekend in the Hamptons with Fauve, Maggy almost missed the caution in his tone, like tip toeing around shards of glass. “She is too small,” she said, not looking up from the work she brought home.

“We aren’t, and she won’t be out of our sight for a second.” When Maggy didn’t respond, Darcy moseyed around his partner’s desk and sat on the edge. Maggy felt his gaze on her, imploring her to look at him, but she refused, so she didn’t see the look he sent heavenward, as he often did when he wished Teddy would help him from where he hoped she rested.

“She can’t be denied things because you’re afraid, Maggy.”

Darcy had stepped right on a shard. With rage hot in her tears, Maggy glared up at him. “Until you know the gaping emptiness I feel when I open my eyes every morning, until you carry the guilt I live with, you have no right—”

“I don’t,” Darcy admitted, his voice and his touch soft as he wiped her tears away. “But I love you, so I’m risking your anger so that you don’t do something you’ll hate yourself for later.” With a frustrated sigh, Maggy leaned into Darcy’s touch, and he knelt before her. “Let me take you away. Let Fauve explore someplace new and horse around in the ocean with me. You’ll have a good laugh watching her pummel me with her pool toys in the name of piracy.”

Finally, Maggy smiled. “It’s your own fault for reading her Peter Pan.”

Letting his hand fall to Maggy’s knees, Darcy scoffed. “How was I supposed to know she wouldn’t latch on to one of the lost boys? Or Peter for that matter?”

Maggy tutted at him. “In the film, the pirates had catchier tunes.”

Darcy arched an eyebrow. “And who took her to see that?”

Smiling at the memory of Fauve in her lap at the pictures, Maggy held out a hand. “Coconspirators?”

Instead of shaking Maggy’s hand, Darcy kissed the back of it. “Always.”

~

Maggy knew Darcy had been right the second Fauve saw the ocean. Fauve, who always had something to say, gaped at the expanse of the water that stretched on to the furthest horizon. Even so, Maggy eyed the tide warily, watching it lap at the shore, hungry for more of what was left of her family.

Fauve squirmed in her hold. “Magali, you’re hugging me too tight.”

Darcy’s hands massaged her shoulders. It’s alright, she felt him say. I’m right here. We’re both right here.

“I’m sorry, darling.” Maggy had insisted on carrying the four-year-old all the way down to the stretch of private beach, and now knelt down with Fauve so that she wouldn’t have to let go when her granddaughter’s feet first touched the sand.

Fauve gasped and giggled at the grainy feeling of the sand tickling her toes.

“What do you think, Fauve?” Darcy squatted down on Fauve’s other side, his smile brighter than the sun glistening on the water.

“It’s so big,” Fauve gasped.

So vast, Maggy thought, full of riptides and undercurrents and—

“Take me in, Darcy!”

“Wait!” The urgency in her tone must have scared Fauve, for her eyes were wide when she looked up at her grandmother. “I’m sorry, my darling,” she said, trying to smile. “I just don’t want you to go in without your little bubble.”

As Maggy rummaged through her bag for the floatation device, Fauve tugged on her arm. “Darcy can hold me! I want to go in!”

Luckily, Maggy wrenched the buoy out of the bag before Fauve’s impatience could mount into a tantrum, or worse, defiance. “Ah, here we are! Come here.” Fauve slipped her arms through the straps of the device, situated on her back, but Maggy’s hands shook as she tried to fasten the straps around Fauve’s stomach.

Darcy crawled next to her and took each of her trembling hands in his. “I’ll finish up here,” he said, the levity in his tone for Fauve’s benefit and the kiss on Maggy’s cheek for hers. “Why don’t you lay out the towels, Maggy? I’ll come up and set up the umbrella for you after I introduce Fauve to the sea. We can take it from here, can’t we, Captain?”

“We can, Smee!”

Forcing herself not to kiss Fauve goodbye, Maggy rose as Darcy tore his shirt over his head and hoisted Fauve over his shoulder. Even wound up by anxiety, Maggy couldn’t help but smile at her granddaughter’s peals of laughter as Darcy hoisted her onto his shoulders, and let her eyes linger over the muscles in Darcy’s back as he jogged toward the surf. She managed to pretend to focus on laying out their towels, but as soon as she heard a splash, her head snapped up. Darcy sat with Fauve on the sandbar, holding his hands up in front of his face as Fauve stood, unleashing an aquatic assault.

For the first time all morning, Maggy laughed.

Throughout the day, Maggy pretended to pay attention to her book, while studiously watching Fauve, but eventually it became about watching Darcy with Fauve. He’d loved Fauve from the day Maggy brought her home, and as Fauve grew, so did his involvement in her life. Fauve would not suffer the consequences of the lack of a father figure in her life, not like her mother had.

And that, even though Fauve and Darcy’s relationship delighted Maggy to no end, darkened Maggy’s thoughts as she watched them—the idea that Teddy might be alive if Maggy had only said yes to Darcy the first time he asked her to marry him. In Fauve’s giggles, Maggy could hear Teddy’s, and she found herself wiping tears from her eyes as Fauve ran toward her, tottering on the uneven sand.

“Magali, will you come build a sandcastle with us?”

The thought of going near the water made Maggy want to scream, but there was nothing she wouldn’t do for Fauve. “First, let me put some more lotion on your pink little cheeks.”

“I like pink.”

Maggy produced the sunscreen from her bag of tricks with a barely suppressed giggle. “You won’t like it later. Viens ici, ma cherie.” She squeezed a couple of dabs on her thumbs and rubbed them into Fauve’s cheeks. This close to Maggy, Fauve could reach out and touch her grandmother’s wet cheek.

“Are you sad, Magali?”

Maggy kissed one of Fauve’s hands, covered in sand. “I was, but you’re here now, and we’re going to build a castle.”

~

“I should have moved the umbrella when you came to build the sandcastle with us.” Darcy massaged after-sun lotion into Maggy’s skin as they lay in bed together that afternoon. She lay on her stomach, topless, with her pink skin exposed to Darcy’s capable hands. “I’m sorry, cupcake.”

“It’s not so bad,” Maggy said, trying not to wince. “You get me topless in the middle of the day, and I get a massage.”

Darcy hummed and fanned out his fingers to skim the sides of her breasts. “I win on both fronts.” Maggy’s low laughter gave way to an easy silence, and Darcy almost thought Maggy had fallen asleep until she spoke again.

“Thank you for taking such good care of Fauve today.”

His work done, Darcy lowered himself onto his stomach next to Maggy, pressing a kiss to her forehead, warm from the sun. “It was fun.”

“Even when you were swallowing saltwater?”

“I’m sure I deserved it.” A heavy silence descended then, both of them thinking of Teddy, the reason for Maggy’s anxiety about Fauve, but Darcy broke it. “You don’t have to thank me, you know. It’s never…a chore, taking care of you and Fauve however I can.”

However I’ll let you, Maggy thought bitterly. “I know I don’t,” she said, “but you don’t have to take care of us. In fact, I’ve spent the better part of our relationship fighting you on that front.” And it might have cost Teddy her life. “But you persist in showing us you love us when most men would run for the hills.”

With Maggy’s back covered with lotion, Darcy dismounted and lay on his stomach beside his lover. “I’m not running anywhere without you.”

Maggy propped herself up on her elbows and kissed his tanned shoulder. If only life had not been so unkind to that naïve child she’d once been. That child would have married Jason Darcy the first time he asked. This is enough, she convinced herself again. He knows this is all I can give, and it’s enough. But as Darcy kissed her gently as he had a thousand times, Maggy found herself yearning for more than she was ready to give. If he’d asked her right then to marry him, she would have said yes.

But a little knock at their door popped the bubble Maggy allowed herself to float away on.

Ce qu'il reste des lieux

Jour 6

#30jourspourécrire

Je pourrais dessiner de mémoire la maison de mère-grand et son jardin, le poulailler et le potager. Le poèle, la poupée, immense, de fête foraine assise sur le lit, les fleurs du poirier dans les bouteilles en verre, le clou pour accrocher les lapins, le buisson de groseilles à maquereaux, la lessiveuse où on prenait le bain au soleil, les couleurs des fleurs. Celle de grand-mère aussi, le verger, le tonneau à chou, la chambre mystère, le grenier caverne d'Ali Baba, les photos figées portraits des aïeux sur les murs, la cuisine et la chaise où debout je l'aidais à faire les tartes, les floucs, les boulettes de riz. Les parfums de cancoillotte, de prune, de spaetzles, de saucisses et de jambons qui sèchent dans la cave.

La colline de mon enfance, défi à vélo pour mes petites jambes, ma mère disparaissait quand j'arrivais en haut, cachée par les hautes herbes. Frayeur d'un instant de ne pas la retrouver au virage suivant, toute petite dans sa robe à fleurs, la main en visière pour mieux me suivre.

La plage du Touquet, les embruns, l'immensité, la froideur de l'eau, les algues, la vitesse de mon char à voile, le ciel qui se confond avec la mer, mon épuisette et mon panier à crabes. Le bar de Stella plage, le picon bière et le mini golf. Ce bleu délavé dans les dunes. Et l'acreté grasse des barraques à frites.

New York et le vertige, le bruit des rues, des gens, la musique qui dégueule des énormes postes sur les épaules, les lumières partout, le spectacle à Broadway, les taxis jaunes, les street food mustard and ketchup, la foule bigarrée et pressée, ce ciel qu'on cherche en se tordant le cou, les ascenseurs qui n'en finissent pas de monter, les policiers à cheval. La démesure.

La costa Brava, les churros, le pan con tomato, le sable brûlant de l'après-midi et la mer d'huile au petit matin. La course de catamaran, le sel sur ma peau brunie, le sexe dans les criques. Les nuits fauves, le rhum coca, le petit village dans la montagne et le bain de minuit.

Granville et la chambre blanche. Le port, la vieille ville, le marché. La plage et le casino de Saint pair sur mer. Le silence et le vent d'octobre, la chaleur douce du mois d'avril. La solitude, le secret et le désir.

Nantes, l'île aux machines. Un éléphant géant de métal qui marche et crache de l'eau. Des spritz et un anniversaire, un parc, des sculptures, une manifestation, des rires, des merveilleux et du champagne. Des graffitis, des maisons colorées, des succulentes.

Il y en a tant des lieux.

Ce qu'il reste des lieux, c'est la vie.

[rhyming-fellowship]

Jatp Dogs

This is not who the characters would be. This is the dog they would own! Also, obviously, most of them would just go to the SPCA and adopt a mutt, but that's not what this is about.

Julie Molina - Basset Fauve

She just thinks it's cute and so do I.

Luke Patterson - Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retreiver

Luke wants a medium size dog that's fairly active and friendly, but not a Golden Retriever.

Reggie Peters - Flat Coated Retriever

Called Peter Pan dogs because they're happy and playful forever, Reggie wants a dog that loves to play.

Alex Mercer - Border Collie

Dogs are too much responsibility for Alex, but if he's gonna get one it's gonna be fucking smart.

Willie - Australian Shepard

Like Reggie, he wants a playful dog, but also smart and loyal. Plus he thinks the blue eyes are dope.

Flynn - Boston Terrier

Flynn is a girl on the go and she needs a dog that she can bring on a plane, a train, and that can happily live in her penthouse apartment.

Carrie- Saluki

Carrie's dog needs to be as fabulous as she is. Carrie wants you to feel like her dog is judging you. Because it is.

Bobby - Boxer

Bobby likes Boxers, Trevor could be convinced to get one, but will probably just be stuck walking Carrie's Saluki while she's at rehearsal.

Caleb - Giant Schnauzer

They're fancy enough that they don't ruin his vibe, but also good at guarding. Plus, he'd never have a dog that's more high maintenance than him. Ernesto ends up taking care of it.

Henri Matisse

Henri Emile Benoit Matisse, was born on the 31st of December 1869 and died on the 3rd of November 1954. He was a French artist, Known for both his use of colour and his fluid and original draughtsmanship. He was a draughtsman, printmaker, and sculptor, but is known primarily as a painter. Matisse is commonly regarded, along with Pablo Picasso, as one of the artists who best helped to define the revolutionary developments in the visual arts throughout the opening decades of the twentieth century, responsible for significant developments in the painting and sculpture.

The intense colorise of the works he painted between 1900 and 1905 brought him notoriety as one of the Fauves (wild beast). Many of his finest works were created in the decade of so after 1906, when he developed a rigorous style that emphasised flattened forms and decorative pattern. In 1917, he relocated to a suburb of Nice on the French Riviera, and the more relaxed style of his work during the 1920s gained him critical acclaim as an up holder of the classical tradition in French painting. After 1930, he adopted a bolder simplification of form.

When ill health struck him in his final years it prevented him from painting, he created an important body of work in the medium of cut paper collage. 

His mastery of the expressive language of colour and drawing, displayed in a body of work panning over a half-century, won him recognition as a leading figure in modern art.

Which one fell first, Fauve or Wisteria?

Fauve and Wisteria yes my babies!

Fauve is very wild about this because she didn't understand it at first. She was all like "wait, why I'm feeling like this? Oh yeah it must be friendship!!" (darling pls). Wisteria is way more self-conscious but she's afraid to ruin everything. However! Wisteria probably fell first

[georgetheblob-art]

Okay, time for me to rant. I honestly believe 2018 was one of the best years for cinema in as long as I can remember. That being said, this years nominees is seriously disappointing - one of the worst list of nominations I have ever seen in the history of the Academy.

- First of all, why is Vice getting so many nominations? I have yet to see it, so I will reserve my full judgment. However, the film was panned by almost every critic so I am a little confused as to why it is being so recognized.

- Toni Colette deserved the nomination for her powerhouse performance in Hereditary. I don’t care if it is a horror film. She literally out-performed every single actress who was nominated this year by a long shot.

- Black Panther being nominated for Best Picture is the biggest joke I have ever heard. Just like last year with Get Out, it seems that the Academy is just trying to appease to POC and SJWs. The film itself is just mediocre in general, since when are super hero films deserving of a Best Picture nom?

- If Beale Street Could Talk is much more deserving of a Best Picture nom compared to anything else on the list. It was a step up in quality compared to Moonlight and I am really surprised that it was almost completely snubbed this year.

- Johann Johanson’s score for Mandy was unbelievable, and the Academy should have paid tribute to the genius composer’s memory by giving it the nomination that it so very deserved.

- Lastly, Annihilation should have been included for the best visual effects category. That film had some beautiful CGI that blew my mind.

That all being said, fuck the Academy. I could care less about this popularity contest.

[ordinairementvrai]

Remerciement Artistique

Ce soir, j’ai envie de parler d’Art, sous toutes ses formes.

De ces œuvres qui m’ont marqué, qui m’ont fait évoluer, qui ont changé ma vision des choses. De ces œuvres qui désormais, font parties de moi.

Dans un ordre aléatoire, et de manière purement objective.

Gatsby le Magnifique, par F.S.Fitzgerald: Comment en une grosse centaine de page, l’écrivain a réussi à travers l’histoire l’histoire de l’Amérique, tout en contant l’une des plus belles histoires d’amour. Un amour qui pousse un homme à tout donner, à conditionner sa vie dans le but de La mériter. L’histoire d’un homme organisant les plus grandes fêtes dans le simple but qu’un jour, Elle y vienne.

The Killing Joke, par Alan Moore: l’histoire du Joker. Comment un seul homme peut sombrer dans la folie, à l’aide d’une simple pichenette. Comment la folie peut être un échappatoire, comment elle peut être la seule issue de secours.

Ne tirez pas sur l’oiseau Moqueur, par Harper Lee: Comment l’éthique d’un Homme peut lui permettre de braver monts et marées. Une leçon sur le courage, et l’intégrité.

Le Petit Prince, d’Antoine de St Exupéry. Parce qu’il y a en tout le monde un petit prince qui n’attend qu’une chose, qu’on le laisse imaginer un boa ayant avalé un éléphant dans le dessin d’un simple chapeau. Parce que face à un monde rationnel, l’imagination innocente est la douceur permettant de tout supporter.

Neverland de Marc Forster: la genèse de Peter Pan, comment un écrivain un peu perdu peut trouver dans l’innocence d’enfant et dans l’amour de leur mère un nouveau sens à sa vie.

Évidemment par Lompal: la lassitude, l’insatisfaction, l’incapacité de se contenter, malgré la réussite, malgré l’admiration.

Will Hunting de Gus Van Sant: le pouvoir qu’un homme peut avoir sur la vie d’un autre, s’il n’est motivé que par altruisme. Et la capacité de tous de s’extirper de nos vies.

Assassination Classroom de Yuseï Matsui: comment un professeur peut avec la simple volonté d’aider ses élèves, en donnant tout, en sacrifiant tout, les pousser à grandir, à devenir meilleur. J’en ai voulu devenir professeur.

L’œuvre d’Orelsan: parce que quand un type écouté par des millions de personnes te raconte ses problèmes, problèmes que tu as toi aussi vécu, et bien cela te montre que tu n’es pas seul.

L’histoire de Spider-Man en général: Un grand pouvoir implique de grandes responsabilités. Comment un binoclard timide peut devenir un héros, par la simple abnégation de lui même.

La saga du sorceleur, par Andrzej Sapkowski: dans un monde où tout est gris, parfois franchement noir et peu de fois blanc, il faut parfois se retrouver à pisser seul contre le vent. Et que tout le monde peut être humain, et que les plus humains ne sont pas forcément ceux auxquels l’on pense.

Californication, de Tom Kapinos: l’amour du rock, l’amour de l’écriture, et au final, rien de tout ça compte si l’on est pas avec ceux qu’on aime.

Cock Music/Smart Music, par Fauve: le pouvoir des mots, des mots bancals, des mots d’amour, des mots perdus, des mots contre la nuit. Parce qu’un mot sur une idée foireuse, c’est un peu comme un baiser, t’as jamais remarqué?

L’œuvre de Damien Saez: l’amour est le premier moteur, est la première cause de l’art. Et par de simple mot il est capable de me faire tomber amoureux.

L’œuvre de Beigbeder: parce que sa perpétuelle introspection m’a montré que je n’étais pas le seul à être ainsi, et que mettre des mots sur cette introspection pouvait être bénéfique. Et l’art de la phrase qui frappe, qui choque.

L’œuvre de Columbine: je ne saurais dire pourquoi. Mais de trop nombreuses phrases ont trouvé écho en moi.

Sur le sol, Lomepal: Sa détresse m’a fait écho, elle m’a parlé, il a mis un mot sur cette détresse.

Suits de Aaron Korsh: parce que l’on a rien sans rien, et qu’il faut être capable de tout donner pour arriver au sommet.

Lucifer de Tom Kapinos: l’incertitude face au destin, la peur de ne pas être libre, la peur de n’être qu’une part d’un grand plan, d’un grand schéma.

Sur la route par Jack Kerouac: Parce qu’il existe toujours un échappatoire, au loin, sur la route, et que la fureur de vivre peut vous emmène n’importe où.

Les frères Scott, de Mark Schawhn: l’amour de la littérature, l’amour de l’écriture, l’amour du rock aussi. Et la tolérance.

L’écriture ou la vie, Georges Semprun: Le fardeau de l’écriture, du prix à payer pour écrire. Ce n’est pas un acte anodin de mettre des mots sur nos maux.

True Détective, par Nic Pizzolato: parce que qu’importe le nihilisme, le pessimisme, il y’a toujours une rédemption possible.

Qui es tu Alaska, par John Green. L’œuvre de toute ma vie. Qui m’a donné envie d’écrire, parce que pour la première fois, quelqu’un avait écrit tout ce que j’avais en moi, et pour la première fois, je me suis senti moins seul. Et pour la première fois, j’ai voulu faire ressentir cela à quelqu’un d’autre.

Je dois en oublier, j’en suis persuadé. Mais merci, merci à vous tous. Vous avez contribué à faire de moi qui je suis, vous m’avez fait grandir, si j’en suis là, c’est grâce à vous.

Partie de Chasse

L'air était froid, mais pas glacial. Le vent léger faisait a peine osciller les branches basse des rares et épais buissons, et ne faisait rien pour dissiper la brume laiteuse et opaque qui embaumait la plaine.

Je marchais au travers, foulant du pied le sol dur et gelé, la bruyère figée dans la gangue de glace cristalline déposée par la rosée matinale.

Le soleil se dessinait comme un pale cercle plus clair et lumineux accroché assez bas au dessus de l'horizon plus sombre et dénudé de la toundra verglacée.

L'atmosphère matinale mordante faisait porter loin les sons, malgré l'étreinte du brouillard qui en atténuait un peu l'éclat, et en distordait l'origine et le sens.

Le brame puissant des Mégacéros et le claquement sourd et sec de leurs immenses bois retentissait comme un coup de tonnerre, presque aussi distinct que si l'humidité cotonneuse n'en eu pas étouffé l'éclat.

Mais par dessus tout dominait un son, brouhaha indistinct et puissant, roulement continu d'un vrombissement omniprésent nt et assourdissant, duquel émergeait de loin en loin un barrissement aussi violent et soudain qu'un coup de cor ; la horde des Mammouths.

Colosses de la steppe, leurs pieds énormes, comparables aux chênes les plus épais et solides, faisaient trembler le sol, dans une totale absence de rythme et de coordination.

Le son issu de la vibration, rappelait a toutes les autres choses vivantes l'approche imminente d'un séisme, et s'il ne s'en suivait pas l'exode habituel des espèces plus petite, la tension était tout de même palpable a leur approche, dans les cris stressés des bêtes les plus menues, et l'espacement manifeste des rugissements des grands prédateurs, du loup au smilodon.

Force de la nature, la horde avançait, fracturant sous ses pas les couches enfouies de sédiments gelées dans de grands craquements, abattants les rares arbres et arbrisseaux qui parsemaient le paysage morne et infiniment égal qu'elle parcourait.

J'inspirais a grands traits l'air glacial et humide.

Il était encore relativement tôt, même si le soleil ne monterait pas beaucoup plus dans le ciel, et la brume se dissiperait bien assez vite.

Le spectacle irréel de montagnes mouvantes que déployait la troupe d'immenses animaux au travers des voiles du brouillard travaillait l'esprit, et me faisait questionner mes sens.

Mais dans l'air matinal, une autre chose que l'humidité portait, rendant la chose presque aussi réelle et physique qu'un coup au visage, était l'odeur.

Écœurante, entêtante, pugnace, la fragrance fauve et bestiale de la horde était aussi impossible à ignorer que le gigantesque vacarme qu'elle produisait.

Puissamment animale, sueur, sols et selles mêlées à la laine épaisse qui en formait le poil, elle englobait tout comme une aura écrasante de par sa présence, extension quasi physique du corps de la troupe.

L'adrénaline montait.

Sensation électrisante et glaçante, feu brûlant de froid s'écoulant dans les veines, chauffant les muscles, faisant l'estomac de bois, étendant les sens.

L'action allait venir, et ma tension, la tension des miens, notre groupe, partie de chasse, tribu, notre horde, s'additionnait à celle flottant déjà dans l'air.

Notre odeur, âcre et métallique, se noie dans celle des titans qui évoluaient dans leur monstrueuse procession devant nous.

Sous le vent, l'odeur s'éloigne des mastodontes, s'éloigne de nous, s'éloigne de ce qui sera bientôt un lieu et un temps de violence.

Nous serrons nos armes, frêles épieux de bois durcis au feu, coiffées de têtes de pierre aiguës.

Le signal, émit d'un instant à l'autre, au moindre signe de faiblesse dans la paroi uniforme de fourrures épaisses, est suspendu au dessus de nos tête, menaçant et tentant, foudre divine bénissant et maudissant nos efforts et nos espoirs.

Soudain, il retentit, s'abattant comme une hache sur un tronc.

Deux mots ; droit devant.

La distance est grande, plusieurs douzaines de foulées.

Mais la proie est là, seule, isolée.

Un mammouth, mâle, jeune.

Moitié plus petit que le plus grand, des dizaines de fois plus massifs que le plus fort d'entre nous.

Nous nous élançons comme un seul corps, franchissant l'espace en un interminable et éphémère instant, fauves humains, prédateurs sophistiqués, mais encore primaux, indomptés, sauvages.

A mi course, je tend mon bras, loin derrière ma tête, et lance une sagaie qui pendait à ma ceinture.

Mes sœurs et mes frères font de mêmes.

Une pluie d'armes aux pointes acérées et mortelles s'élance, pour finalement s'abattre sur le cuir épais de l'animal redevenues de simples morceaux de petits bois mal taillés.

Peu pénètrent l'armure naturelle de la bête, qui barrit avec force, ses jeunes yeux s'assombrissant d'une colère plus ancienne et féroce que leur âge ne le suggère, et s'élancent vers nous avec une mortelle détermination.

Fatale erreur pour lui, malgré la formidable terreur qui saisit mon cœur.

L'animal cours à sa mort, et nos lourdes lances s'enfoncent là ou les sagaies ont échouées, l'élan du colosse des plaines le faisant percuter notre lâche filet d'hommes et de femmes hérissé de pointes.

Ses défenses et sa trompe envoient au loin deux des nôtres, qui s'écrasent comme de lourds ballots de fourrures, bruissement à la fois mous et dur, heurt de la chair épaisse et molle sur le sol dur et glacé, bris des os au claquement comparable aux branches mortes qui se cassent.

L'odeur naturelle et musquée de l'animal est désormais dissimulée par la note plus acide et cuivrée de son sang.

Saigné par des douzaines de plaies infligées en un instant, son corps se vide déjà de sa vie, même si elle ne s'échappera jamais assez vite a notre goût.

Je cours, ahanant, embrochant la bête de mon lourd épieu de frêne.

Le choc se répercute sur mes bras, la chair claque bruyamment, ma mâchoire se referme sèchement, et je me mord la langue à sang.

Le goût me rappelle que je suis vivant.

Autour de moi, chacune, chacun, fait de même.

L'animal rue, frappe, piétine.

Mais nous sommes partout et nulle part.

Vif, impitoyables, poignardant et lacérant.

Le combat, trop long et trop court à la fois, dure l'espace quelques douzaines de battements de cœur.

La brume autour de nous s'éclaircit à peine, la relative chaleur du soleil commençant seulement à en écarter les pans.

La bête s'effondre, épuisée et morte, s'abattant sur le sol avec la violence d'un événement géologique, avalanche ou éruption volcanique.

Des barrissements attristés, poignants et terrifiants pour l'âme humaine, s'élèvent instantanément.

Ils succèdent à ceux qui, courroucés, s'élevaient depuis le début de la confrontation, sans pour autant s'approcher.

La horde, à la fois lointaine et bien trop proche, nous observe, indécise.

C'est le moment de vérité.

Si une femelle la rallie de son cri, nous serons piétinés et tués, avec une brutalité sans commune mesure avec ce que le reste de la nature à a offrir.

Mais cette dernière est tout aussi clémente qu'elle peu se montrer cruelle.

Agissant sur une impulsion, je saute sur la carcasse, agitant mon épieu, et hurle contre la faible brise, cassant ma voix dans un rugissement que j'espère aussi impressionnant qu'un grand fauve, même si au fond de moi je sent la petitesse de mon corps, la faiblesse de mes poumons, et l'insignifiance de mon être face à cet océan de destruction potentielle qui s'ébat avec fureur a un jet de sagaie de moi.

Le pari fou cependant, paie.

La troupe, effrayée, s'éloigne avec ce qui demeure une nonchalance et une grâce olympienne, plus incommodée qu'attristée au final, par la perte d'un de ses membres les plus frêles et faillibles.

Pour nous c'est une victoire.

Pour des mois, nous serons armés, nourris, et abrités, nos tentes de peaux et d'os renouvelées pour plusieurs saisons encore, autorisées a s'élever une fois de plus aux côtés de nos foyers, lors de nos longues transhumances dans les plaines interglaciaires.

J'essuie la sueur qui perle sur l'épais bourrelet osseux délimitant mon front, et exhale un long soupir de soulagement.

En même temps que nous entamons le travail de dépeçage et de découpe de la carcasse, nos guérisseuses et hommes médecines s'attellent au chevet des chasseurs tombés.

Leurs os épais ne cassent pas facilement, mais les côtes cèdent pour moins que le reste, et la chute a été rude.

On prépare cataplasmes et concoctions, qu'on applique et administre, alors que le soleil passe le zénith, et que la pleine réchauffée mais toujours gelées, éponge le lac de sang formé par nos efforts autour de la carcasse.

En sueur, puant la charogne et la fatigue, j'achève ma besogne en même temps que les autres, et alors qu'un vent plus fort se lève et finit de dissiper la brume, je porte a mes lèvres la griffe d'ours pendant à mon cou, murmurant un remerciement à mes ancêtres, que le vent se charge d'emporter.

C'est la fin d'un jour, d'une chasse, dans un monde encore jeune et brut.

C’est le récit romancé d’un rêve que j’ai fait: je n’étais pas un Neandertal dans mon rêve, mais c’est la seule distinction majeure

(PETER PAN)

—  Las relaciones literatura-cine arrastran un pasado turbulento. Y cuando se trata de la adaptación cinematográfica de una obra infantil, las fricciones y los desencuentros se acentúan aún más, como consecuencia, entre otros factores, de la vulnerabilidad e indefensión de este sector de la audiencia. En estos casos, el texto original es, a menudo, devorado por la industria cinematográfica, en la que habitualmente priman factores comerciales en detrimento de aspectos artísticos. La versión cinematográfica resultante puede llegar a convertirse en una ofensa para la dignidad de un escritor, para su producción literaria y, más específicamente, para el mensaje que pretende transmitir con su obra. En este trabajo se analizan dos adaptaciones cinematográficas basadas en dos obras literarias diferentes pero con un referente común, con objetivos y resultados diametralmente opuestos. La intención fundamental es arrojar luz sobre el proceso de adaptación y sobre los límites del mismo, en el caso de que ello fuera posible.

(ROBIN HOOD)

  Pero como en todo cuento histórico siempre hay un héroe en el que nos tendremos que encarnar para hacer frente a tropas de guerreros comandados por "Lords", a los que deberemos de derrotar y hacernos con su territorio para poder reclutar soldados, así nuestra dicha será más fácil y podremos completar nuestro objetivo de devolver el trono a Ricardo Corazón de León. 

Los lores a los que deberemos vencer son: Wilfred de Ivanhoe, Edmont the Grim, Geoffrey Longsword, Reginald Front de Boeuf, William Marshall, Marc de Rampaygne y Phillip Malvoisin. Estos deberán ser derrotados previamente antes del asalto al castillo final para poder derrotar a nuestro principal enemigo: el Príncipe John.

(EL GATO CON BOTAS)

—  Como se muestra arriba, la versión ilustrada de Gustave Doré es muy conocida por captar el suave tono satírico de la historia.

—  Una película animada titulada El gato con botas fue lanzada directamente a video en 1999 por Plaza Entertainment.

—  El gato con botas apareció como un personaje en la película Shrek 2 (con la voz de Antonio Banderas). Aparentemente, se consideró al gato la elección obvia para asesinar a Shrek, que es un ogro, porque ya había matado a uno famoso antes. Sin embargo, no intenta ningún enrevesado truco esta vez, sino que hace un ataque frontal abierto contra Shrek, aunque su táctica de hacer que el enemigo baje sus defensas adoptando un aspecto inocente de gatito desolado es también extremadamente efectiva. Además es español en lugar de francés: «El gato con botas» en lugar de «Le chat botté». Esto, seguramente se deba al hecho de que tanto en la versión de habla inglesa como en la española, el personaje estaba pensado para ser doblado por Antonio Banderas. En el cómic Xanadu, el principal héroe masculino, Tabbe Le Fauve, es un gato a imagen del gato con botas con una fuerte influencia del típico personaje espadachín interpretado por Errol Flynn.
