There isn't much to say about myself, and I can't really be bothered talking about what little there is. Therefore I shall leave this topic more or less untouched and move onto my rambushlings.

A cat?
A cat, a cat - a diamond for the cat! But what cat? What diamond? A large cat, a large diamond? A small cat, a small diamond? That cat, this cat, my cat, your cat? A cat, a cat - a cat there is not. Yet somewhere a cat may be? Any cat, or the cat? Tell me the cat. For cat, a, the, that, or this, you shall have. Diamond? Any diamond! A small diamond better than no diamond? Yes. Diamond I shall have. Cat you shall have. All happy, all merry, except mayhap cat.

Ragdoll
A King, a Magician, a Judge, a Warrior? No, just a man. Yet was he even that? Was he truly a prisoner? A beggar? Nothing? No never that, never nothing. Once great, now small. Was this the fate of all?

How had this become the present? How had the past led him here? How had his future been destroyed? He had fallen, and now there was no now; no future, only past.

Incoherent, thoughts muddled, words odd. That was all there was. Yet perhaps there was a glimmer; a memory - a recollection of the past? A light of glory, of truth, of heroics - behind him, yet still there.

He remembered that previous life; a life where his word was law, but also justice. Justice, that word sent shivers down his spine. Justice did not belong in this place; his prison. He had not been served by justice in the end.

Cast down, betrayed. He was no longer King. King, king, king. What was a King? A figurehead, to be cast down when it is no longer useful? Not a life, but a ragdoll.

Jerry
Merry and jolly was he - Jerry? Jerry! Jerry was he! A dancer, a bard, a warrior, a knight, a lord, a king, a god. Jerry, Sir Jerry, Lord Jerry, King Jerry, Great Jerry. Naught but Jerry, little Jerry better than big Jerry. Fewer questions, fewer answers. Little Jerry. A simple farmer? No; much better as a simple sheep herder. Poor Little Jerry all alone with naught but sheep. No wonder Little Jerry was so odd. No wonder Little Jerry was alive. Little Jerry sheep herder. So little, so poor, so useless, so safe. Little Jerry. That was his name.
