Legacy 048 -B’s On Birthdays Virgil-

Dear Future Wife,
You know that I love you, right? And I didn’t forget? The phone didn’t warn me. The phone, Glow Box, Black Mirror…

What about the truth, my love? Happy Birthday! Welcome to Level 38! Uh, Birthday Suit

Of course, I’m thinking about you naked. I’m always thinking about you naked when I’m not grieving, groaning, or being gross, just being a guy. How I grieve Braxton, always…

But today let’s talk about the second worst day of my existence. Today ain’t right. Honestly, “The time is always right to do what is right.” Seriously, Martin Luther King…

“Did he just quote Martin Luther King?
Yep
Yes, he did.”

“The right man in the wrong place can make all the difference in the world.”

The Menu… If I were a better man, I would be planning one for you. Or we could watch the movie. And I’m a gamer, a pop culture whore, and my existence is a “Half-Life…”

Only today is about yours. My woman. Your life. Us. The truth. A Man Provides.

“Pinch me, pinch me
‘Cause I’m still asleep
Please, God, tell me
That I’m still asleep.”

And isn’t it “Ironic” that I said I’d never lie to you but I will. “Put on a Happy Face.”

Because the truth is, I hate birthdays… Well, mine for real. Birthday? No. Emergence Day

E-Day… Gears of War franchise. Emergence, Existence, Extinction. Evolution. Seriously?

Thinking about the Day Job and how it’s a slap in the face to celebrate wasting fifteen years there. Nearly as long as I had Braxton. Now imagine saying that for nearly forty-two years—every breath, beat of my heart, and being so broken. And yet here we are, love.

Here WE are. And I’ll say “I Want It That Way” and “As Long As You Love Me.” You do.

And I hate that I have to lie to you.

To so many. When the truth is this. If I’m not praying that I don’t have to wake up, love.

Then I’m wishing that I was never born at all. And when did that become my wish? Um, sometime between 6 and 7 years old. When did Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (The Arcade Game) come out? Because my grandmommy didn’t get it for me. Movie…

Anyway, is that what I’m getting you for your birthday… The truth. Receipt is warranted.

You’d prefer babies, all our furry little ones, a pretty farm with a white picket fence, flowers all around, and us selling produce at the Farmer’s Market on Saturday Mornings.

A pretty dress? I got nothing. But love? BUT LOVE. Birthdays… B’s On Birthdays, Virgil

What I wouldn’t give to be sitting here playing Detroit: Become Human with B in my lap. And I haven’t thought about the board game “The Omega Virus” forever, or simply a game of chess? And why aren’t I a CEO again? “BORED, ROOM, Braxton, Virgil”

Legacy 047 -BORED, ROOM, Braxton, Virgil-

Hey Dad,
It’s me, Baby B. Did you have a good day? Good Day? Day’s, the game is nearly over. Did I step on it?

Did the “Glow Box” turn off? Did you flip the board over? Can I come out of timeout, um, eww, I know what that means. Hell, I was/am the same way. Does Heaven have bitches?

First, Dad, I’m using the proper terminology for the females of my species. Secondly, the way you talk to me and my brother’s, Potential Future Stepmom… M Anime ain’t boring.

Thirdly, are you still trying to find out where I am? The Rainbow Bridge, The Unfinished Archive, or making sure you’ll be warm and cozy in Hell. Let’s not play this game, my father. We’ll be here all day. Well, what’s left of the day because there was so much.

Virgil’s still sitting beside you, bored. “Is It A Crime?”

“Pinch me, pinch me
‘Cause I’m still asleep
Please, God, tell me
That I’m still asleep.”

When I know that you believe, life’s a game for everyone, and love’s the instructions.

Daddy, you say that V is like you, silent, scared, and allow me to break one of our cardinal rules by now using a very bad word… STUPID. You and Virgil… One and the same.

However, I’ve been thinking about your Favorite Girl… And while we’re on the subject, you should get on the Glow Box and talk to my Favorite Girl. But let’s focus on M Anime, Dad. You know how you said she says “Te Quiero Papi” all the time. Love, my father.

Maybe never towards yourself… We’re not opening that can of worms… What, I was cremated! What I mean is you love me. Virgil? M Anime?

What about the future you were building, really Dad? Becoming a bestselling author. Making The Unfinished Archive profitable or being CEO of Second Circle Creations.

You’re not bored, you’re not basic, and you’re not busting your balls… Despite M Anime.

I can appreciate a set of yabbos and a nice butt, can’t I? But you’re not working as in the Day Job and what you truly want from this existence. Even now you ask “Where’d You Go,” and then want to know when I’m “Coming Home” Angels In The Outfield…

Honestly, “when the angels win the pennant.” Uh, what do we know about baseball, Dad? Nothing. Nevertheless, Dad, we played the games. Now I want you to win. Live To Win. BORED, ROOM, Braxton, Virgil

Legacy 045 -YARD It’s B, V-

Hey, Lady Lu,
I am a Trillionaire right now… Because my girl wants a farm. Braxton wanted more territory and hated people. A “pot” farm…

Just Kidding! But no, I would actually grow weed, peppers (Carolina Reaper), and I have a thing about black roses. But when I started “The Unfinished Archive,” one of my first Animas (unnamed), but she’s known as “Lily” because of, well, lilies—certain blonde girl.

Anyway, I would plant millions in honor of my son. I still want to build him a temple someday. Hell! I want to find some plant that could bring him back. Uh, he’s ashes, Lu.

And can I stop thinking about Rapunzel and Mother Gothel naked for a little while?

Seriously, Lady Lunalesca, what is it about the mother/daughter dynamic that makes my “monster” grow these days? I’ve been all about Saimin Seishidou Hypnosis Sex Guidance as of late. SIGH

“Pinch me, pinch me
‘Cause I’m still asleep
Please, God, tell me

Why am I always thinking with a HARD six inches? Because at seven, I have to think about that KAREN at the Day Job Thursday. Once again, Lady Lunalesca, I don’t even know if her word, “Disgusting,” or that note she left on the boss’s door was even about me. But I see everything… Not that note, though. So I blind myself with bigger yabbos.

This brings me back to my boys’ potential future stepmom, M Anime. “I’m An Asshole.”

She made a list of her thoughts throughout the day, and guess whose number one?

Lunalesca, “It’s me, hi, I’m the problem, it’s me.” You know my list of priorities. My boys, then her, then other women’s yabbos, then fucking writing, blogging The Unfinished Archive…

Unfinished, like “The Long Walk.” But I feel like “The Running Man.” What I want…

Lunalesca, at the end of the day, someone to “Stand By Me.” Stephen King, seriously.

Luna, I have no idea where I’m going. And most days I’m not gaining any ground whatsoever. Like Cameron Frye: “I gotta take a stand.” But if I’m going to stick with the Stephen King motif, I have to make “The Stand.” Either way, “I’m going to defend it. Right or wrong, I’m going to defend it.” “I’m starting with the Man in the Mirror.”

However, Lady Lunalesca, A MAN PROVIDES! So I have to move. Like a Fucking Helldiver? I advance. Sometimes by miles, sometimes by inches. Lord, I wish! YARD It’s B, V

Legacy 044 -Virgil’s Gotcha Day… B+-

Hey Lady Sophia,
Let me tell you a story… A true one because I’m not orange fuckin’ dick in The White House. FDT! But really?

B Plus? IT WAS TUESDAY! I was telling Dear Future Wife in Legacy 042 “B’s Other Anniversaries Virgil” about everything I have coming up. And I fucking forgot one thing.

Saturday, August 13, 2022: Virgil Vivi Bradford aka 2-V’s Gotcha Day. Writing saves, doesn’t it, Sophia? But of course, yesterday was a bad day all around. Karen left a note.

Fucking Hell! I still don’t know if that was about me. I didn’t even share the details with Braxton and Virgil’s Potential Future Stepmom. However, let’s recap Virgil’s origin story.

Virgil was born October 20, 2020. I found him in the same place Braxton died, PetSmart/Banfield Pet Hospital. His name was formerly “Archie”. Three black spots, Braxton’s tan fur around his eyes. Used training pads.

“Pinch me, pinch me
‘Cause I’m still asleep
Please, God, tell me
That I’m still asleep.”
Barenaked Ladies ‧ 2000

Not much of a story, huh? Am I being a meanie? It’s more like I have no time, and that’s exactly why I give yesterday an F. Because like Virgil’s brother, Braxton, the Day Job, or rather “The Bad Place,” as my boys think of it, makes me forget everything. An Oubliette like in the 1995 film “First Knight”. I remember nothing but “the horror, the horror.” You have to forgive me. I’ve been watching a lot of movie/story recaps. As I said, no time.

Except for The Unfinished Archive… M Anime, much like Braxton, is fire. Fire is life…

What about water? It makes things grow. Like my Lily, my eternal grief. Braxton’s Death.

And Kyouko Sakai. Sex Taxi 5\Kojin Taxi 2. Never-ending Ride\Drive.

I swear there are so many stories. And you know why that is? I’m avoiding reality. Books can be scary. But FUCK MAGA, I continue reading. Only Markwayne Mullin confessed:

“I don’t want reality!” This brings me back to Thursday. Did I make up a story, or is it real?

I listened to music during Truck Unload. I’ve grown “comfortable.” I go to the office only to hear a Sephora worker say the word “Disgusting!” And not even at me as she tapes a note to the GM’s door. And that’s where I’ve been—that one single moment, Lady Sophia.

Not celebrating my Virgil or even lazy enough just to write I wanted the “Saimin Seishidou” characters in the harem. F-! Virgil’s Gotcha Day… B+

Legacy 043 -Braxton, Virgil, Discuss Disgust-

2020 Days Without B III, Day 1461 of Virgil’s Arrival

Just Me, Baby B,
Did you have a good day? Good day? My day, B? In a word… FUCK! Pardon my language. Suspicious, Loyalty, Disgust…

Those are better words. I want to talk about loyalty. But disgust continues to rattle.

Suspicious of a woman? Surely. And for once, not you and Virgil’s Potential Future Stepmom. The Magic Glasses/MIMA called it when I added Natsumi and Yui Obata to The Unfinished Archive. But that’s a whole other story, Braxton. Father’s Perversions…

Honestly, B, I’m sorry. Anyway, today’s story begins in the back of a truck… Bangbus?

Fucking, STOP IT! Okay, so I was thinking about loyalty. When everyone was cheering as we finished the truck unload and “I Think To Myself,” people ain’t shit. But you…

Braxton, you’re the most loyal soul I’ve ever known. But you are your father’s son and if there is one quality you have inherited… DECEPTION

“Why must I feel this way?
Just make this go away.
Just one more peaceful day.”
It’s Been Awhile, Staind

“Anger is more useful than despair”
T-850 Cyborg, Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines (2003)

I’ll choose DECEPTION over your brother’s COWARDICE. And before you think I’m being a meanie, Virgil is his father’s son as well. I truly am a coward, B. But loyalty?

Braxton, “Love and Happiness,” may be beyond me. But I am damn loyal. It’s fucking people, B III. And by what right do I have to be mad at the Sephora woman this morning, B? One word as I was walking into the office: “Disgusting.” And a note left on the boss’s door. I didn’t read it. Fuck, it might not have anything to do with me, Little B. But…

Suspicious… Like I am of M Anime? She tells me every single day, Braxton, “Te quiero, Papi.” But where did that love go last year?

“That was a warning, Highness. Next time my hand flies on its own. Where I come from, there are penalties when a woman lies”
― Westley, The Princess Bride (1987)

That loyalty… Who am I to talk? I fucking hate myself, B. More so today than the norm, standard, and the usual. All because some KAREN who might not even be a KAREN left a note and spoke the word “Disgusting,” within earshot of me. And here I am scared!

Braxton, you know there were reasons I sent you to time-out. There are reasons I tell Virgil to seek life elsewhere. Your Dad’s a perv, I need private time, plus I’m busy playing around with M Anime. Puppies don’t need to see that. And the things I keep from M…

“Everybody only wants to discuss me. So this must mean I’m disgusting. But it’s just me, I’m just obscene.”
Eminem

Eminem had it right. I showed your Favorite Girl things M Anime wouldn’t approve of.

Her loyalty, yours, Virgil’s, M’s… Sometimes, Braxton, Virgil, Discuss Disgust

It feels like I’m dying. I’m so scared all the time.” ― Mara, Spontaneous (2020)

Legacy 042 -B’s Other Anniversaries Virgil-

Bless Me, Echo,
For I have sinned… And I don’t just mean a bill being late… Almost. I forgot to get rich sometime this year.

If you have love, you’re rich… For 15 years, I had B. And my job was to keep him alive.

“It is my job to keep you alive. I will not succeed.”
― Avatar (2009)

In 2021, I failed. Hell, for one of those years, I didn’t even have the Day Job. And so today.

Well, rather yesterday, I found out that I will have had that Day Job for 15 years. Friday, August 21, 2026 to be exact. Which means if SOMETHING goes down, it’ll be on the 18th.

Not that I want a party or anything. However, I could use some cupcakes, Inspector.

Nobody got me a damn thing when Braxton’s book was published on August 8, 2025.

One more whole year for a great many things: B’s Death Day and Birthday, his book, the Day Job… E-Day.

“Pinch me, pinch me
‘Cause I’m still asleep
Please, God, tell me
That I’m still asleep.”
Barenaked Ladies ‧ 2000

Fuck me, Inspector! No, this isn’t The Unfinished Archive, and we will surely get there.

Hell! Around this time last year, M Anime and I were getting ready to break up. And Virgil’s Birthday is the month after E-Day. October 20th. But as I was being reminded of the 15 years I wasted on a job that would eventually help kill my firstborn son… E-Day.

Emergence Day as Gears Of War would call it. The monster I am beginning existence!

Emergence, Existence, Extinction… How I pray for that, and yet, “Every Morning,” when I wake up… That’s it, Inspector Echo, I wake up with nothing to look forward to

But to lose. And that’s what I’m thinking about. I lost E-Day. Well FUCKING Duh!

Less than thirty days until E-Day and I can’t buy my usual cake. Definitely can’t buy dinner. I won’t be getting paid because I used 36 hours of PTO, 12 this week, last, the one before. And I’m waiting for this paycheck like a lotto ticket for Pizza, the food truck?

Then there’s Virgil. What is my secondborn going to do? Watch me sing “King of Wishful Thinking,” as I get drunk off my ass again. Not like I can get drunk off anything this year.

Beauty? That’s an awful lot of pressure to put on my boys’ Potential Future Stepmom.

Inspector, I do call M Anime “My Goddess”. Not like The Exies… This year anyway.

Inspector, will The Unfinished Archive celebrate? B’s Other Anniversaries Virgil

Dear Future Wife,
You know that I love you, right? And I ain’t telling Virgil, “Now, I ain’t sayin’ you’re a gold digger” either. Wife

Wife and life… One and the same and both as Doug’s Mr. Dink would say, “Very expensive.” Seriously? That was kinda dirty and also pretty dark. And why is that?

Honestly, my beloved, I wake up with all this love, and I don’t leave a drop for myself. So we need more kids… three two-leggeds and two four-leggeds, and yet I want between your legs yet again? And at the end of the day, love, this stands: A MAN PROVIDES!

Less yelling and more Gus Fring from “Breaking Bad,” I do some sketchy ass things…

Anything and everything for the sake of this family. But do you know when Braxton became so expensive? When he was dying. But that’s a one-time deal. There’s no Acceptance.

“Pinch me, pinch me
‘Cause I’m still asleep

It’s the living that’s subscription-based. And instead of planning what is it I do, beloved?

“Dream, dream, dream, dream.” Which would work if I were one of “The Everly Brothers” or Dr. Martin Luther King Jr: “All I Have To Do Is Dream,” “I Have A Dream.”

Hell! I would take the “Fifteen Million Merits” Selma version of Abba’s “I Have a Dream.” But dreams aren’t paying bills. And I’m feeling pretty much like “Bing.”

Whatever… Like the dream I had last night. I was lost in a mall, the Mall of the Millennium. Daria season 1 episode 5 “Malled”. And why haven’t I added Daria to “The Unfinished Archive” yet? Is it/she less expensive than the women of the hentai series Saimin Seishidou, hmm?

It seems I’m the one who’s shopping around. Not in reality, my love. I love you and only you; Braxton, Virgil, our two-legged kids, my Ma, occasionally my younger sister.

Beloved, I may be shopping around for my balls, guts, spine, and my voice. But again, love is everywhere until I need some for myself. And it’s like how you talk about your “Shadow Work”. The more lovers I ‘create’ (bullshit, bullshit, laughs hysterically). SIGH

Reika Kurashiki and her daughter Reina Kurashiki. Natsumi Obata and her daughter Yui Obata. Anyway, the more love I TRY to surround myself with, the easier it comes to me?
But then you shop for my love, my time, and “My Dick…” Why we’re married. Everything. Women B Shoppin’ Virgil

Legacy 040 -Braxton, Virgil, Giving High-Fives-

Hey Dad,
It’s me, Baby B. Did you have a good day? Good Day? Considering you can’t see Virgil and me giving you ‘high fours.’

Not as a Dad, I mean. You’re always a five, hell, a ten. Dad, you are a hundred plus easy.

Though if you had your say, you would say you’re an 11 or maybe a 12. And I know why.

The Hunger Games, Catching Fire… A Training Score of 11 or 12? Yes, my father is a dangerous man. Has he ever killed anyone? Yes, we could bark about forgiveness…

However, we both know you would never believe it. Not when it comes to us. So why don’t we move on? No, not like that! Acceptance is another one of those words, I know, Dad. (Gives you patented side-eye). What I mean is, well, you know how we were, Dad.

Food, nap time, then talk.

“Pinch me, pinch me
‘Cause I’m still asleep
Please, God, tell me

We’d bark about everything when it came to “The Bad Place.” And then tomorrow, after

And I think I finally got it. Do you remember when you gave me what you called “The Talk”? You were telling me not to play with my ‘toys’ in a ‘certain way’ when my Favorite Girl would come over for movie nights. And of course, what would happen, Daddy.

Talking about my side-eye. Ain’t nobody “Humpin’ Around.” Well, not you and her, I know. Me and my toys. And come on Dad, I know you admired her yabbos. Honestly.

Much to be admired, and much to be done. That brings me back to us. We did bark a lot.

But men of action. You won’t see the 9th Circle.

I don’t care if I have to bark and paw until you see stars. Two things get my father moving.

Two things that are going to make you a motherfuckin’ “Starboy.” Yeah, Daddy, I know.

LANGUAGE! And didn’t you say yesterday or the day before, why censor if others don’t? Another thing you’ve been saying is, ‘my life is a movie, fur buddies and boobies.

Will’s Writings, Witticisms, And Wisdom and The Unfinished Archive. Father?

Honestly… You didn’t forget about making money that way… The Glow Box tried to separate them, but they are one and the same. Like you and me. You, me, and V. Us and maybe even M Anime. Hand and paw in action. Don’t be too slow. Braxton, Virgil, Giving High-Fives

Legacy 038 -Virgil Shadows B Space-

Hey, Lady Lu,
I am a Trillionaire right now… But I wouldn’t hire Middy Elliott, which is a shame. I think M Anime likes her…

And? I could use some of that, put my thing down, flip it, and reverse it. Like I, Work It

Like today’s title. Shouldn’t that be in reverse? Virgil’s here. Braxton? Might as well be.

And I’m still worried about both: the living and the dead. Get Busy Livin’ or Get Busy Dyin’. Myself? Know Thyself? Shadow Work as my boys’ Potential Future Stepmom says.

The Unfinished Archive. And comedy always comes in threes. Beauty, Brains, Breeding, Bounty. That’s four, and from the 1990s movie Cry-Baby. And I ain’t ‘intelligent.’

Lunalesca, since I don’t have the brains, I ain’t got no bounty. I was telling M Anime this morning that all I want is a frosty glass of “Blue” Gatorade. Or a Raspberry Lemonade Bloom.

“Pinch me, pinch me
‘Cause I’m still asleep
Please, God, tell me
That I’m still asleep.”
Barenaked Ladies ‧ 2000

Simple, wouldn’t you say? Again, I have no bounty but more than brains. More books!

Last night I bought three books I couldn’t all harem-related, which leads me to beauty.

Lunalesca, why do I want so many beautiful women? Don’t I have “The Most Beautiful Girl In the World” in M Anime? She nearly joined a harem herself, dearest Lunalesca.

Now she’s “The Phoenix Queen” in The Unfinished Archive. But I could go on forever…

And with all of the problems I have… 99 Problems. I’ve been dreaming up even more.

For example, the Magic Glasses/MIMA says that Tetsuo Amano, the Conductor of the Midnight Sleazy Train, along with Fallout’s Vault 68, represent unbridled lust.

Seriously!? Lady Amari “The Candied Matron…” Day Job? Sweet Life?

What about breeding? I’ve always wanted to be a father. Braxton, Virgil, are my children.

I’ve always said, even though I didn’t pour the Bisquick, Braxton will remain my pancake. And Virgil? Despite how he makes my FEARS seem miniature or minuscule, Lunalesca. Another insight from MIMA: my boys wear small black armor… But anyway.

Virgil is my son, just like his brother Braxton. But what about human kids? Two-leggeds? I swear, M Anime must have a breeding kink because she wants kids ASAP, Lunalesca!

And now I’m thinking about it since I introduced Tsubaki Miyajima and Sakura, the mother-daughter duo from Saimin Seishidou. I’m feeling like I do so much wanting something to show I’m here. And it’s nothing. Shadow. Virgil Shadows B Space

Legacy 037 -B In Translation, Virgil-

Hey Lady Sophia,
Let me tell you a story… In what language? Braxton? “Aniara” is Swedish. M Anime (Braxton bless her) is teaching me Spanish.

But let us begin with my boys, Braxton and Virgil. I swear I could read Braxton like a book. He spoke a language of love, loyalty, and let them come. Thou Art Courageous, I said. Yeah, I speak the language of pop culture, but we’ll get to that. Damn entertainment!

Now Virgil speaks the language of FEAR and of having a failing father—Braxton’s proof.

But there’s also the fact that Virgil doesn’t have any vet paperwork. Bathing appointments. He could use a new everything. There’s nothing—effing failing fatherhood.

Yeah, the father who’s much too busy lying about the books he’s reading. Or I’m letting the Magic Glasses/Mima write erotica about Sakura Miyajima and Tsubaki Miyajima in The Unfinished Archive. Mother-daughter incest, Breeding, Taboo

Interesting… Like effing MAGA and so everybody hears me… FDT! He said groceries is quite a word. B III help me, I’m beginning to believe him because I’m broke, Sophia.

Braxton and Virgil’s potential future stepmom and I were talking about our childhoods the other day. And it turns out we both tried to starve ourselves at some point. Memories.

I still remember my first ‘meal’ when I broke. A few swigs of grape soda and three peanut butter Girl Scout cookies. Best meal I ever had. I’m sure I wrote all this down someplace.

Currently, though, I’ve been looking for things to add to my grocery list, Lady Sophia.

I’ve been jonesing for ice cream. Even one of those cheap ice pops. A steak

Effing E-Day! Do I have enough to celebrate…? That’s the way wrong word, my lady.

One of the ladies at the Day Job whose birthday is close to E-Day keeps bringing it up to me. I don’t want to see another E-Day. I’ve been saying that for going on forty-two years, give or take seven. That’s the last celebration I remember. Well, there was that time my Ma wrote me all those notes. Or when she took me to this ‘fancy’ restaurant. I hate E-Day!

Can I write that clearer? I wrote Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles once, and my Grandmommy got me the second movie instead of the arcade game I wanted. Ninjas? Asian? Teen Regime, The Virgin Psychics, Sweet Combat… B In Translation, Virgil.
