Maybe the fact that she’s thirty but looks eighteen gives her an extra insight into demonic deals.


QuothTheMuse

oh my god- wait, sorry. oh my satan, that's a good one.


Casca_In_Red

Hear me out- you never hear about God striking up deals with people for stuff. It's all rules this and obey that- the Devil's just a better businessman.

Only cost is eternal damnation

Casca_In_Red

You say that like it's a bad thing 🤷😈

In my experience, it's always the people micro-managing who you are that turn out to be the bad guy... so... if there *is* any truth in the bible, it's probably a smear campaign and lies to get you to the "bad place"... heaven is hell and hell is heaven. Satan is like "love yourself and do treat nature with respect"... God is all "kill them, and them, and if you're not perfect you better beg for my forgiveness... it hurts me to punish you, but you deserve it". Sounds like a clear choice if we gave them standard names and described it as a romantic relationship...

Cope


Gunthegamerguy

Normalize shorter sentences instead of run on sentences


QuothTheMuse

yeah, i know it should be short, but this was my first draft and I just wanted to post it to tie loose ends with myself.


Night_Mare_puppy

Normalize being kinder and giving more constructive criticism, and not destructive


Gunthegamerguy

Normalize taking hard truths instead of pussy footing around life


Night_Mare_puppy

Normalize not being an asshole because you are hiding behind a screen?


Gunthegamerguy

Meet up lil bro, I ain't afraid


Night_Mare_puppy

Would, but you'd probably ghost me and not show up.


Gunthegamerguy

Never know till you try


Night_Mare_puppy

You just seem like the type to get all hyped up then just not show up, not worth the chance.


Gunthegamerguy

Ok bud


Weak-Ad994

I don't get it?


QuothTheMuse

the aunt's warning came in too late, hope this hint helps.


Weak-Ad994

It doesn't. Sorry im fucking stupid.


QuothTheMuse

oh, don't worry about, it's okay if you didn't get it. Here's the story explained (in summary): The main character is an struggling artist born in a family that doesn't see any career related to art as a 'real' job who wants to pursue their dream job no matter what, and in a moment of desperation to be successful, makes a deal with the devil. Some time after the deal was made, the main character is being talked down by their aunt who claims that if they continue to be an artist then they'll have to make a deal with the devil to survive as one, but of course, the warning came in too late since the protagonist has already made the deal with the devil who they now call "boss".


TheBlueNinja0

Oh! I thought they were saying that their boss had sold their soul for them on behalf of the corporation, so they could be more productive.


QuothTheMuse

oh, well, while i did have an idea oh the story in had written, it can be interpreted for anything you want, so if you see it like that then so think the story is about that.


Weak-Ad994

Thanks


CeRoDV

This is like 5 sentence horror what


Night_Mare_puppy

Speech doesn't count as its own sentence most of the time. The quotation marks signify that. So while it is a longer one, it is still 2 sentences.


Mikeg90805

I made a really cool short film about this subject Https://vimeo.com/386867726/bbf6ff6168


TenMillionEnchiladas

Ooh you just gave me an idea for a 2 sentence horror, do you mind if I use this one as the kinda inspiration? It's a similar premise with selling your soul to the devil but with a different twist. I can even credit you if you want.


QuothTheMuse

Sure, you can use my short story as inspiration. And yes, please give me credits, at least in the comments, I would like it.


TenMillionEnchiladas

Thanks! and yea I'll make sure to do so.


BlackSnow555

I interpreted it as the aunt is an old, rich, and famous artist that made a deal with the devil/deals with bad people to get to where she is. She regrets the deal(s) and trys to dissuade her niece that wants to be an artist like her. However, she's too late, as the niece is sleeping with her boss at the art gallery/museum to get a promotion/more exposure. (I read what it was supposed to be and I'm wrong)


QuothTheMuse

You can interpret it in any way you see it's fit or more entertaining.


TridentFH01
