Challenge #2: Loss
I don't really know if this counts, since the fandom is soooo teeny tiny... XD
For the past few weeks, I've been a little hung up on the BBC radio play comedy "Old Harry's Game" by Andy Hamilton. The whole story revolves around Satan, his beaurocratic difficulties and boredom in managing hell, and his philosphical discussions with a few of the damned. This particular character is Satan's hopelessly devoted assistant Scumspawn (♥). Scumspawn is in love in Satan, much to Satan's chagrin, and follows his master about like a lovestruck puppy despite being repeatedly kicked away and trodden on. This scene is when Scumspawn has poured his little heart into painting a portrait of the "ruler of his heart," and despite (or rather, because of) how sensitive and honest a potrayal it is, Satan makes him burn it to ashes. Scumspawn is rejected yet again, and sits sad and alone with the remains of his precious painting, lamenting the fact that no one's ever going to want or love him. SADFACE. The same thing happens later on when he writes a poem for Satan titled "My Prince." ;)
