Should I...

 Oh reader, if I really like you, I might let you in on a secret...

Ever since I've "checked out" Studio Heartbreaks The Lovers' kickstarter, and seeing that one of the tiers gifts you a copy of the film's first draft, I've sat stunned, wondering I maybe-just maybe? I should do the same. 

Of course, I'd have to remove all copies of Kuya's real name, but I digress. 

Maybe that's why I decided, instead of my beloved notes app, only available on Mobile, that I should write all my notes into the docs themselves, even when I had no idea when my laptop would come- if ever. It would make for a captivating reward tier. Here's a taste, just in case-

The idea, of course, is that the music the tone the characters, everything in this story is happy. Oppressively happy, to the point where the cowboy is left alone with its calmer, melancholic thoughts and unable to get the relief, get the sense of quiet it needs to break down until the very end. Forced into festivities time and time again, even when it's sick, even after the lobotomy. Its thoughts are oddly polite and poetic in nature, musing and slow. Until we get the sense that even this is a device to torture the cowboy. Its in a hell of Christmas time Joy. 

Truly, this story follows a man going into hell. The cowboy in the portraits is NOT the cowboy we follow (Iron Lung, anybody?) 

THEMES:
Christmas Festivity overload

Tradition without love is peer pressure

Autistic joy and how the world seeks to destroy it, then-

Aah aah ahh, I can't say that, can I? Teehee
