She just sat contented in the comfy chair as I built this up around her

I call this installation “The Cat of Amontillado.”

grounding techniques, ok 5 things i can see. I see bricks, I see mortar, I see a trowel, I see a cask of wine, I see that asshole Montresor glaring at me over the top of the wall...

D&D warlock who’s literally just Fortunato from “The Cask of Amontillado”, having survived his immurement by making a deal with something in the dark, and the costume he was wearing the night he “died” has become the sign of his pact, so basically you’re playing as a depressed, alcoholic jester who sometimes has to run errands for He Who Waits Behind the Walls.

The Bible never states what type of wine Jesus said was his blood. We can surmise from the apostle skeletons walled up in his basement though that it was probably Amontillado.

Fundamentally my goal as a player in any tabletop RPG is to portray the sort of character where at some point an NPC says "for the love of God, [character's surname here]" and means it.

SHORT STORY TOURNAMENT - FINALS

THE CASK OF AMONTILLADO by Edgar Allen Poe (1846) (link) - tw: death

“I drink,” he said, “to the buried that repose around us.”

THE ONES WHO WALK AWAY FROM OMELAS by Ursula K Le Guin (1973) (link) - tw: child abuse

Do you believe? Do you accept the festival, the city, the joy? No? Then let me describe one more thing. In the basement under one of the beautiful public buildings of Omelas, there is a room. It has one locked door, and no window. ... In the room a child is sitting.

THE YELLOW WALLPAPER by Charlotte Perkins Gilman (1887) (link) - tw: depression, insanity

John is so pleased to see me improve! He laughed a little the other day, and said I seem to be flourishing in spite of my wall-paper. I turned it off with a laugh. I had no intentions of telling him it was because of the wall-paper — he would make fun of me. He might even want to take me away.

You brick them into the basement with the amontillado.

Two crucial details that I think a lot of people miss when summarizing The Cask of Amontillado:

1) The guy who gets bricked up has only committed the crime of just being very annoying for a very long time

2) Throughout the entire story, he is also wearing just the dumbest hat the narrator has ever seen

#it is a spectacularly silly hat and i think it needs to be mentioned more #the cask of amontillado #edgar allen poe
