Argyle

A home-space sharing 'condition' yields a 'dark' twist for a hostel-station (Wingate) reading, for rationalism's (funny) detour.

A space-quarters 'paranoia' tale for the holidays, 

----

====

Amlan and Marcus and Ezzy and Danica were just content sharing-space at their post-grad hostel station in a Homeland-Jersey summer when a new guest appeared at their residence of haven (Wingate) where they'd make for a rather troubles-rich discovery in the nature of Earth distances to simple sanity (hmm).

AMLAN: This guy's really a stranger (Argyle).

MARCUS: He's fascinated by those Purge dystopia-films, ok.

EZZY: Who plasters so many Purge posters in his hotel-room, now?

DANICA: Maybe he's from Mars; needs more Facebook handshakes exposure.

AMLAN: I say we sneak into his room when he's away, posing as housekeepers.

MARCUS: I can snatch a maid-uniform from the supplies room (yeah).

EZZY: Should just turn to be a cool Facebook poke, ok.

Argyle entered his room after Danica slipped in to find some 'clue' to his past or identity or background, given his very strange personality and qualities and obsession with Purge films. Danica found a handful of black (onyx) marbles in the Argyle-vanity (Wingate) placed next to a strange book about American anarchism and foolishly tumbled one marble out, which Argyle discovered. His cherished book about anarchy however remained perfectly in its place.

AMLAN: Hey guy.

ARGYLE: One marble fell out!

AMLAN: Excuse?
ARGYLE: You, one of your 'American Wingate musketeers' is the culprit.

AMLAN: Please excuse?

ARGYLE: Well...what did you make of my American-anarchy text (hidden)?

AMLAN: You're an American anarchist, Argyle?

ARGYLE: You need not binge-confession, Amlan; I'll simply 'report' the answer.

AMLAN: For my (general) curiosity, ok.

ARGYLE: The Purge films are real...they're an omen for something coming (real).

AMLAN: Excuse?
ARGYLE: Doubt it to hell, Amlan, and your 3 other rascal-pals from college.

AMLAN: Please excuse?
ARGYLE: I'm part of an underground 'fight-club' movement to sweep Homeland!

AMLAN: What's this?
ARGYLE: When the Revolution hails, you Wingate4 shall serve for testament.

AMLAN: I bet.

ARGYLE: You may bet, rascal; this is an America for the taking/seizure, Amlan.

AMLAN: Please feel free to indulge any 'catharsis' emoji to us at the Wingate (ok).

ARGYLE: Thanx for listening; I shan't concern you with this (more); I depart soon.

AMLAN: Perhaps we'll cross paths...during this Revolution (ok?).

ARGYE: Good (for bureaucracy).
