Vancouver-Ice-Man: A 'Chess' Journal

An Earth-prince retires to Vancouver for social-media activity and finds stranger Romanticism in an area of 'exchange' chess direction.

A vignette about city-sports cheers/spirits and social-media energy in the new era of folk-democratic complexity/intrigue.

DISCLAIMER: This work of social diorama offers no explicit/commercial ties to the city of Vancouver or NHL-hockey representative person(s)/body and is therefore cast a purely a 'personal' exercise (fiction) in culture-expression (or hyperbole).

Amlan Satan moved from New England (Boston) to British Columbia (Vancouver) after retiring from blood-diamond work with Interpol-relation and started his own cyber-chess society called NewPorcellian to make street-dialogue surrounding social-media activity facilitative of democratic life-exchanges of real folk value and wondered if his interest(s) in chess/ice-hockey reflected the cool aura of the North American city in the Xmas-season of lights/consumerism (hmm).

AMLAN SATAN: I'll draw on city ice-hockey fanfare to make cyber-chess a thing of street-exchange(s)!

His new girlfriend (Tandy) got him a 'swift' ice-hockey craft themed chess-set to make 'toast' for the NewPorcellian which became a quick social-media 'sensation' in British Columbia especially as the city's fave-team ice-hockey season kicked off, and Vancouver set its sights on rival North American city Calgary for 'Flames' competition-Ego (ha).

AMLAN SATAN: We wish for the NewPorcellian to draw 'cool' rivalry axes between Vancouver-Calgary!

VISHNU: As 'faerie-god' of protection, I claim my comics-avatar portrayal(s) for sport-spirits in Vancouver are capitalism-IQ.

SHIVA: As 'faerie-god' of destruction, I'd claim cyber-posters in Vancouver cast sportsmanship as folk-avatar friendly for capitalism-chess.

AMLAN SATAN: Using 'folk' avatars for 'folk' cyber-storytelling (for Vancouver) is modern democracy!

As the NewPorcellian became quite the 'rave' during the Vancouver-city ice-hockey season opening, right around/following the symbolic lights/consumerism season/time of Xmas/New-Year's, Amlan Satan realized he'd become an 'Earth-prince' of social-media 'energizers' surrounding street-conversationalism for democratic exchanges and the odd nature of sportsmanship/competition 'drives' in the human race (wow).

GIRLFRIEND (Tandy): As an ice-hockey cyber-fanzine cheer-model for the sports-season, I've found interest in NewPorcellian Ego (now).

Amlan took his new girlfriend (Tandy) to the Vancouver Chinese restaurant on the main-strip of eateries in the heart-of-the-city following a 'fantastic' triumph of the city-team in January 2023 to celebrate all the laurels/triumphs man had achieved in this time of 9/11 and Coronavirus and terrorism-woes and traffic-tribulations of an otherwise 'consumerism' iconic new era of great 'emoji' design(s).

TANDY: I didn't think I'd be turned onto chess/Chinese-food, but you've managed to link them to sports.

AMLAN: That's my talent, honey-bee --- 'network' hospitality Ego design(s).

Why did Amlan and Tandy enjoy Alien films on their honeymoon? Perhaps the Earth-prince had become 'versed' in the imagery of traffic-IQ oriented social media 'intrigue' surrounding the 'casting' of motion-fears and 'invasion' concerns regarding capitalism-consciousness/couture 'tremors' as links to 'science-fiction' concepts of 'race' endurance.

TANDY: I wonder what kinds of science-fiction stories were in the 'streets' before immigration-era challenges.

AMLAN: Nothing too complex, Tandy...in fact, the 'chess' of exchange-IQ invokes more 'real invasion' gods.
