"I came," she said, "hoping you could talk me out of a fantasy."

"Cherish it!" cried Hilarius fiercely. "What else do any of you have? Hold
it tightly by its little tentacle, don't let the Freudians coax it away
or the pharmacists poison it out of you. Whatever it is, hold it dear,
for when you lose it you go over by that much to the others. You begin
to cease to be."
The Crying of Lot 49, Thomas Pynchon
Welcome, my
lords
ladies and gentlemen, to the world of ARTHUR DRAKE (and
a bit of Mark King):
This
is me, Arthur Drake, as drawn by a visitor for the Arcana. Aren't
I just stunning? Or something...anyway, this is one of two ways you'll
see me in Elysium. This is the "Nutty Happy Funster Arthur."
The other Arthur drops his mask to show all of his guns, and uses them
against the naughty men. But, being as what you're not one of the
naughty men, you'll never have to see that, except from the sidelines...am
I right? I certainly hope so. From time to time, Arthur isn't
around, and you'll have to make do with speaking to the Malkavian Mark
King, former primogen of Clan Malkavian.
BENJAMIN SPEAKING -->> Click on the drawing of
me, done in real life by Shoshanna...Bauer? Is that your last name?
Anyway, CLICK ON IT! for real-life pics, etc. Some fun stuff, but
only 3 pictures as of B> 9/8/98
No, not that Mark King! I got away with being Malkavian Primogen, but I've
gone back to my true "clanless" heritage for now, maybe...Although I used
to (and sometimes still do) bear a striking resemblance to the man on the
left, I am, of course, not to be mistaken with this other Mark King,
lead singer and bass player for now defunct British pop group Level
42. The best part is, I was Malkavian Primogen, by my own appointment.
One member of the city, a Brujah, claimed the Primogenship "until somebody
decided to take it away." I then decided to take it away and declared myself
Primogen "until *I* decided to take it away." Since then, one Primogen,
T'sara Vandercross, has been killed, and Peter was found to be Sabbat.
Now somebodyorother is leader....sigh...
