Chicago: WatchFlower

A Story by Abishai100

Is there a 'bond' for fortune-deeds for a man claiming to be the reincarnated Lancelot (Camelot) in the Windy-City's traffic of distant fears?

"
A capitalism 'intrigue' fable drawing on some of the 'complex/worldly' characterizations from Arthurian legends. Thanks for reading!

My name's Lancelot, and I'm the reincarnation of that 'complication(s)' rich swordsman of Arthurian legend (Camelot). Don't believe me? I didn't believe it myself until a fortune-teller confirmed this 'hunch' I carried since reading Le Morte d'Arthur (Malory) in college (Dartmouth). Oh yeah, I am he, and I'm a modern (21st-Century American) Homeland Catholic citizen and sports-writer living in the challenged Windy-City of Bulls-Bears markets and social-media 'bread' commentary (wow).



I love many sports, including tennis, basketball, football, soccer, fencing. I even consider chess a sport, and I've written a 'cool' superstitions-tale about an ex-tennis pro who finds his Rossignol (racquet) is suddenly (miraculously!) endowed with the magical power to make him young and an excellent/accomplished athlete, and he's being guided-along his 'vanity-expression' in Chicago by the voice/hand(s) of the mystical Lady of the Lake, an Arthurian character of 'ghost-magic' who (incidentally) counsels me/myself as a writer of tales such as this one, one of materialism-readings for sportsmanship symbolism for capitalism-race 'chess' intuitions (ha).



LANCELOT: Do deeds create magic for fantasy in sports-marketing American art(s), my Lady?
LADY_of_LAKE: Sure; in deed (and words), competition 'education' makes for worldly goods.
LANCELOT: I do find a special wording for Chicago hand-write concerning capitalism's fortunes!
LADY_of_LAKE: Perhaps you'll take me (with you) on a vigilance-mission for Chicago's fortunes.
LANCELOT: That's a deal (for social media bread).



I was staying at the Windy-City Courtyard with my Lady (of the Lake) and designing a special adaptation tale of an ex-athlete seeking a blood-diamond vigilante-raid of a baron's vault with a theater-magic 'deed' that would generate social-media commentary about street-consumerism insurance watches (hmm).



LANCELOT: We enter masked and claim we're sent by the Ion-company to switch diamonds for media.
LADY_of_LAKE: When they ask for credentials or verification we're from the actual Ion-company?
LANCELOT: We reveal our theater-prop water-gun toys for the video-recorded 'deed' are acid-guns!
LADY_of_LAKE: When the bank realizes we're crazies/robbers with no insurance commentary?
LANCELOT: "We've Interpol-relation work(s) for an insider blood-diamond operation for media."
LADY_of_LAKE: When the bank 'thinks' this is some inside-intelligence job for insurance-media?
LANCELOT: We return to our Courtyard and fashion a cyber-tale about insurance-hyperbole in banks.
LADY_of_LAKE: Considering this some 'hospitality-reading' for the 'game(s)' of institutional-lies!
LANCELOT: Ah, but for the 'good' of Windy-City materialism branches (for the Ego).
LADY_of_LAKE: At least this is eco-conservationism (ok).
LANCELOT: Blood-diamond capitalism shines the darkness of eco-minerals mining for exploitation(s).
LADY_of_LAKE: Good for the Courtyard (Chicago).
LANCELOT: And we'll be the WatchFlowers, my Lady.
LADY_of_LAKE: Good tale (for continuity?).



That's just what I did, with my Lady-of-the-Lake. We used Treasure Island as our inspiration and achieved that insurance 'theater-deed' for adapted Chicago social-media storywrite that casted us as special 'masked' messengers of this dark Homeland age of 'stranger' inventions in fortune-readings (for net-bread).



CYBER_FANZINE: The manager inspected the Ion-box, burned/swapped, and the guardsman was silent.



Wow, my Lady/I had become 'micro' (masked) celebrities of the Windy-City expression of wrought capitalism-race 'chess' readings of fortune and eco-pollution! This was high-writing for superstitions-indeed, and it was drawn in me by my fascination with swordsplay and 'castle' chess deeds for modern social-media 'cinema' (or Halloween revelry!).



LANCELOT: To the park at night for summer's retreat and a memoir of tennis-and-bread.
LADY_of_LAKE: I'm your ghost-writer of fantasy magic in Chicago's memory of gem-baskets.
LANCELOT: This is either (all) insane holographics or the 'thing' of 'American' environment(s).
LADY_of_LAKE: Consideration for populations-chess is a Western hospitality examination?
LANCELOT: For the 'good' of Homeland boogeyman (and photo-graphics).



So, now I'm generating this new tale of an ex-tennis pro with a diamond-watch in Chicago with a dark secret 'chess' tied with Sierra Leone smugglers, offering the Homeland a special commerce/fortune superstition for traffic-dissection for eco-minerals mining consciousness (and the Ego). Who shall don the 'trophy' of this magnificence, this symbolic Chicago-WatchFlower deed?



LANCELOT: Let's download Wimbledon.
LADY_of_LAKE: Excellence; competition-reading reflecting the 'board' for materialism-fantasy!
LANCELOT: Not even 9/11 can 'destroy' Western credibility for supreme ambition-matter.
LADY_of_LAKE: Fine (good).



This tale of the ex-tennis pro involved an (Indian) luchi-bread thanksgiving brunch plate in Chicago raising questions about pluralism-traffic 'linked' capitalism hospitality and superstition/fashion. Had luchi become the new wheat (for Chicago's matter)?



That's my diorama-presentation. I, Lancelot, claim this lens of capitalism insanity/superstition 'magic' for fortune-readings in Homeland traffic for treasure/insurance 'confidence' language and for the voice/hand of the Lady-of-the-Lake who'd become my (black-and-white) 'courtyard' therapist (for the Ego).
