Arklow's End

A Story by Abishai100
"

Can a world-man reference an 'upstart' race-horse for a gem-insurance 'game' requiring Homeland defense(s) of handholds?

"
A fun world-infiltration vignette inspired by the stylish The Grifters (John Cusack), without any 'specific' ties to the film/production itself.

AMLAN SATAN: I'm to match Baron Goldfinger's gem-showcase (Churchill-Downs) with a 'cool' long-term investment plan regarding an 'upstart' horse (Arklow) who'd become a millionaire, for a blood-diamond insurance corruption highways-media high art. 

GOLDFINGER: I'm to invest (Arklow) alongside this 'James Bond character man' at Churchill-Downs for a gem-insurance media-message concerning 'linked' markets in media, for my insurance-veil initiative?
ASSOCIATE: This prince of capitalism 'games' is quite the intelligence-designer/illusionist (sir!).
GOLDFINGER: Watch Arklow's rise (now).



Arklow did indeed become a millionaire-horse after winning his mini-race at the Derby in the new millennium as an under-valued 'upstart' of the racing field of proud/storied American horses/champions, a source of much investment/patronage in American aristocracy-culture/media. This facilitated new forms of social-media 'criticism' commentary by neo-liberal messengers/advocates of commerce/treasure infiltration theater/fiction (ha).



EZZY: You stole me away from Goldfinger, so now what?
AMLAN: We're going to Zurich and I'll teach our babe/son to snowboard.
EZZY: What about social-media surrounding your new 'businessman' persona?
AMLAN: Our Zurich cyber-homeschooling venture will produce Selfie-arts in the social-media highness.



Amlan got himself a nifty (if eerie!) 'alien-invader' sci-fi media-themed chess-set/toy for his NewPorcellian Euro-cyber society of students/teachers/artists working alongside each other (on social-media!) to offer 'personality' in competition-class negotiations/intelligence for Homeland governance/invincibility.



Once he swapped Goldfinger's new African ruby with a replica made in a laboratory, the underground/veiled baron had no choice (now) but to offer insurance-expressions/statements on social-media regarding 'overground' investments in commercial markets of treasures/toys without 'deference' to the risk-winds/tides of monitored/supervision halos (damn).
