Grifters-WhiteA Story by Abishai100A natural 'grifter' (Mr. Amlan Satan) seeks a racer-company (Arklow) insurance 'discipline' with a diamond-investment Hellmouth (Ion-company) for American water/color.
A bright 2024 (Valentine's season) 'fanfiction' of sorts of The Grifters (John Cusack).
---- ==== Mr. Amlan Satan had become a natural 'grifter' of the old-guard, a sort of street-trained and midways-acceptably educated man of capitalism-labyrinths for fortune-reads in the post-9/11 era Homeland (America) of incomplete-distances to transit-superstitions 'linked' profit-motive examinations, complicated by new age fears of terrorism/piracy (wow). Well, Satan thought to re-cast his special interest in the finery and design of racing and competition to seek a (rumored) conflict-zone gems ('blood-diamond') insurance-hype marketing 'project' by Baron Ion (Ion-company) at Churchill-Downs, to draw (Interpol-relation?) examination eyes on Western/Earthling commercial insurance books (for the Ego). BARON ION: You strike me as a Dickensian-sort of self-schooled venture-profiteer and trekker! SATAN: That I am, Ion; we co-invest in this 'upstart' racer-company (Arklow) for Selfie-hyperbole. BARON ION: I emboss my diamond-ad for social media with Churchill-Downs ticket? SATAN: This is a department-store culture, and it requires street-links for activity/politics! BARON ION: If this idea of yours fails, Mr. Satan...there's no 'Target-Jersey' for your vanities. SATAN: Who wouldn't understand such a 'definition'...for Ion (ha)? Blood-diamonds were the bad-rave, and this grifter-chess 'stalemate' logic extracted by this naturally interested 'student' of capitalism-race motion(s), Amlan Satan, wanted to find that ghost-magic tie for treasure-insurance and commerce-net activity for insurance-commentary, taking his portion of the big-investment for the race with Ion and then drawing more 'good-wire' examination eyes (Interpol arguably). ESMERELDA: You want to rescue me away from Baron Ion's company, Satan. AMLAN: I'm a fan of Dickens and old-school Romanticism; besides, Ion's got that evil siren-lady! ESMERELDA: Don't underestimate that 'Baroness' for Arklow-deeds, Satan; she's original. AMLAN: I know (all) that; you remind me of my mom...how she'd offer me 'omen' wisdom for Hell. ESMERELDA: Good (luck). This 'Baroness associate' of the Ion-company was in deeds ruthless, and she wondered why Amlan Satan wanted to make a gem-showcase at Churchill-Downs ahead of that big 'upstart' racer-company media-expression (Arklow) alongside Baron Ion. However, before she could turn the proverbial 'question' screw(s) of leviathan and intercept Satan's raw-fingertips, Amlan took-off with 1/2 of the Ion-company treasures (insured) the bad-baron brought to the South for this special media-windows diamond rhyme (perhaps for 'lycanthropy' arts). ESMERELDA: We're darts for this Brussels-sprout eatery-venture (now), Satan. AMLAN: All's well in the universe of grifter-math, Ezzy. ESMERELDA: Seems we've made 'bread' for the ornaments of capitalism's vanities, Satan. AMLAN: You're the real prize...no politics for watches. ESMERELDA: For a grifter (thanx).
