SHIVERS - Your shirt sticks to your chest. The cold finds its way in under your skin. You shiver, and the city shivers with you.
ELECTROCHEMISTRY - Now the taste is slowly receding into your throat…The rush is growing in intensity, your little heart pounding like a bird in a cage. A sweat breaks out across your brow, your jaw clenches…
HALF LIGHT - Deep down you know the only *true* stakes are life and glory, or death by fiery dismemberment.
YOU - Yell “Hello!” into the furnace. PHYSICAL INSTRUMENT - A pathetic yelp sounds off into the vast darkness of the chimney. You're a little embarrassed you produced it.
KIM KITSURAGI - “We have business back in the Whirling-in-Rags. Questions to ask. We should get to it.” HALF LIGHT - Something tells you you should be extra careful from now on.
SHIVERS - Under the violet morning sky the great district wakes: A chessboard of wooden houses, 80,000 living souls and chimney stacks. Firetraps as far as the eye can see -- from Main Street to Precinct 41, to Boogie Street forking into the glowing horizon…
HALF LIGHT - That strange distant fear is getting close now. It's a fear -- of *yourself.*
YOU - Do any of the books call out to me? PAIN THRESHOLD - Nothing of interest. Only silence and the cosmic background pain-radiation.
SHIVERS - This could have been you. This could still be you. A down-on-his-luck nobody, trying to survive.
ELECTROCHEMISTRY - Unzip and party down on yourself, my man. No one's watching.
HALF LIGHT - The last embers have gone out. The war is over.
HALF LIGHT - Hold on! Did she just laugh at disco? YOU - “Wow, ma'am! Do we have a *problem* here?” WORKING CLASS WOMAN - “What problem?” YOU - “Do we have a problem with *disco*?” WORKING CLASS WOMAN - “No, no…my relationship with disco remains irrefutably healthy.”
YOU - I don't know, I think he may be onto something. PHYSICAL INSTRUMENT - What's next? A raw food diet? You're a disappointment.
YOU - Where does the road lead… SHIVERS - To Couron, through the middle income neighbourhoods there -- by the river -- and then to Stella Maris and La Delta, for work. While the men and women of Jamrock scuttle to their fates below the road.
SMOKER ON THE BALCONY - “Just look at it…” He gestures towards distant motorways, all leading to golden La Delta. “It's a beautiful night. Who's going to stay in on a night like this?” ELECTROCHEMISTRY - He's right, only losers go to bed early. Time to break out the booze!
YOU - “Is he okay?” (Point to Alain.) EUGENE - “Does he look like he's okay?” ALAIN - He does not. His unshaven face is almost grey, and he reeks of piss, sweat, and booze. PHYSICAL INSTRUMENT - While still alive, he has abandoned his own body to decomposition.
SHIVERS - In the middle of a broken plaza, illuminated in a cone of light, two men, one slim, the other sturdy. They are on the city stage, but only one of them knows his lines…
YOU - “What's a vision beast?” NOVELTY DICEMAKER - “It's an imaginary beast that guides you through life…by telling you to do more drugs, mostly.” ELECTROCHEMISTRY - A wise and noble beast, guiding you toward the land where the streets are paved…with drugs!
YOU - “Are you human? You weren't moving like a human.” TIAGO - He chuckles. “I am, at least in part, homes…until the Mother's love burns away the crude distinctions of the body.” PHYSICAL INSTRUMENT - A body is only crude so long as it's unformed, son.
ELECTROCHEMISTRY - Purest cocaine…Now that would make you feel like a king. Not that you can afford it…But you could do a bit more speed. That would be okay.
