Pain and Suffering

For some reason I thought yesterday had an update. In supplication, double post!

I'm probably more amused than I should be by the chiding laughter of the birds at Liō's failure to fly. Did the Wright brothers, in their initial failures to achieve flight, ever receive such cruel reactions from the very species they were attempting to emulate?

And so Papa Liō quickly dies on the beach after giving his very last breath for the enjoyment of his only son. Liō, either unaware of his passing or unconcerned by it, joyously forges a path into the ocean using the result of his father's lethal actions.

Here's some classic Liō dark humor. Nothing starts my day quite like a children getting launched out of catapults at a quarter a pop. Lucy must be having a slow day down at the old psychiatric office if Liō can get them lining up for 20 cents more.

Again, the real joy for me is the underreaction. Father Liō seems only mildly upset, rather than horrified at the doubtlessly large pile of broken bodies. Liō, of course, doesn't seem to think he's doing anything wrong.

I personally wonder - does Liō's ride get repeat customers? Does he prevent refunds just by shaming his victims into believing their thoughts were not wonderful enough?
