#competitive commanding

So uhh hi guys, I’ve got some bad news.

CC is dead or at least I think so.

Yesterday he was playing his usual deck (comprised mostly of Platinum Angels and counterspells) at a new card shop that we had just found, when he was approached to play a new game of magic in the back room. He always appreciates a new challenge, and abandoned his game. I was in the middle of a game with another person, so they just left me there to finish.

I, for one, do not know exactly what happened. I heard yelling, lots of cursing from CC, things getting thrown. I’m guessing they were questioning the legality of his deck. Which is a pretty big pet peeve of CC.. or was..

Anyways. It got pretty quiet back there and I finished my game, so I decided to check up on them. When I got there it was a mess. There were cards everywhere, literally hundreds of Platinum Angels were scattered around the room, with an upturned table. CC would never willingly leave his collection of Platinum Angels anywhere.

I rushed to find the store owner and asked about the guys that had gone with CC in the back. Apparently they were fairly new employees from the WOTC offices. That’s pretty much all the information I got from him though. I waited for hours thinking that maybe he had taken a walk to cool off, but he never showed up. I’m not really sure what to do at this point. I thought about calling the police, but there really wasn’t any evidence and he hasn’t been gone long enough to be declared a missing person. I’m pretty lost.

I’m going back to the same card shop today for Friday Night Magic. I hope I find him, I hope he’s alive. 

-Temporary Replacement Competitive Commanding (TRCC)

Hey guys, I just wanted to apologize for all the profanity that I have used over my posts. 

I’m sure it was rather offensive at times, and I’d just like to take this moment to apologize. I was going through a dark time in my life and an experience really just changed my outlook on everything. That’s why I’ve been gone for a while now and I’d like to share the story with you.

I am in college of course, I’m sure you’ve gathered (Hah, gathered.) Well in college I met a very special girl.We went on many dates and we actually ended up living together at the start of this semester. 

Well one thing led to another and she ended up getting pregnant.After a long long amount of discussion we came to the conclusion to keep the child. It only brought us closer together as a couple. Painting the nursery, buying toys, clothes, and feed, and just overall getting ready for the child was a very special time for us. 

We ended up gathering our families together for a meal. We made food for everyone of course. After the dinner we ended up sitting everyone down and announcing the news. Most of them took it well. By most of them I mean everybody except for my father.

My father is a very religious old fashioned man. He of course was not used to this sort of thing, a child out of wedlock. He started towards the door and I told him to wait. Turning back towards me he said “You were always different.” And he Stormed out. I broke down crying.

Soon the due date was any day. We were just waiting and ready.

Her water broke and she went into labor.

We got to the hospital.

She went in.

I felt like I had to try and reach out to my father one last time, he should know his grandchild was about to be born.

I called.

All I hear is screeching

A doctor comes out and hands me my child wrapped in cloth.

I take the cloth off of its face.

I look down and looking back at me is the face I have long despised.

The Face Of Storm Crow

I look back at the doctor. The doctor is a Storm CROW. I Look At MY WIFE. MY WIFE IS A STORM CROW. THEY ARE ALL SCREECHING AT ME. CONSTANT SCREECHING. I RUN OUT OF THE ROOM AND INTO THE BATHROOM...

I look in the mirror.

I am..

I am..

A Platinum Angel.
