Grifters-Mediums

A Story by Abishai100
"

A crime-psyche 'adaptation' of the Stephen Frears 'mod-classic' about inventions in fortune-readings yielding (special) 'wrought' darkness (for the soul).

"
A 'bright' adaptation of that searing American crime-underworld 'psyche' film The Grifters (John Cusack), which I think you'll like,

AMLAN: We make a coinvestment play for race-company (Arklow) gem-chess IQ.
EZZY: Never thought you'd start-sounding like your departed-mummy, Mr. Satan.
AMLAN: Nina was a 'Grifter' of the old-variety, Esmerelda; we're the new-gen IQ!
EZZY: How Romanticism-unfriendly...maybe we've a social-media label (Arklow)?
AMLAN: Why not (good for social media).



INTERPOL: "Blood-diamond corruption today threatens the world-gem exchange(s) and makes 'rogue' finance/piracy woe(s) for materialism-readings (or chess)."



BARON ION: You've an offer for some race-company in the South?
AMLAN SATAN: Well, bad-baron, Ezzy/I have a hand-write for treasure-reading(s).
BARON ION: If Arklow loses?
EZZY HARRIS: This is an 'alternate' excellence-play, Ion; for social-media IQ.
BARON ION: That cool...for materialism 'matter' (e.g., Churchill-Downs).
AMLAN: We come out with gem-insurance comments/prestige for the crowd(s)!
ION: Alright (good for social media).



Well, Amlan Satan and Ezzy Harris truly were the 'Grifters' breed of capitalism-race 'chess-stalemate' maestros seeking this hand-write for fortune-readings through a gem-baron coinvestment 'examination' tied with an 'upstart-race' company (Arklow) arguably/perhaps destined to become a millionaire-bond! However, Amlan had to do one job, inside the gem-showcase safe of the horse-race aristocrat-glass box where Ion sat drunk, costumed as a 'mime' with a silent-theater for water-gun juggling (with one of the guns loaded with acid for the safe-burn and gem-swap in old Grifters-heroics style, as his dear/complex departed mummy --- Nina --- would compliment). Wow, this was good for social media, and post-9/11 era Homeland 'incomplete-distances' to commerce/vanities securities for the 'modern' patriot/journal-writer.



AMLAN: Well, we're quite the newborn Romanticism-pair of ravens?
EZZY: Surely, Mr. Satan.
AMLAN: You're (so) much like Nina, Esmerelda.
EZZY: When will you start to call me 'Ezzy' more often, future-man?
AMLAN: We'll marry...when we gets our Brussels-sprout venture-IQ.
EZZY: When's that...and how, Amlan Satan?
AMLAN: Soon...the Ion-job's incompletely perfect (you know).
EZZY: You need a nice capitalism-race defense/heroics comic (for therapy).
AMLAN: Everyone likes matches.
EZZY: You're softer than Nina, Amlan...let's escape the Grift (please).
AMLAN: Thanx (cool).
EZZY: For every terrorist, there's a 'bread' for materialism-reading(s) deeds.
AMLAN: We're not the frighteners, Ezzy; we've the 'eye(s)' for American jam.
EZZY: Cool (thanx).
