Montgomery and Herbert

𓃺
London, 1922. Breakfast at a hotel restaurant. You're at the table with two gentlemen.
Monty (the blonde guy) butters his toast, Herbert (with dark hair) reads a newspaper. There's a headline "Women Exercise Voting Rights in Expanding Democratic Reforms".
CW: sexist mindset, gaslighting, dark humour, absurdity, creeping decay

STRATEGIES FOR THE PLAYTHROUGH
Fight Herbert and call him 'Herbie' because fuck that guy; judo - be even more sexist and misogynistic than he is so he realises how stupid he sounds; ignore Herbert and gross out everyone with Monty and table toasts, also chew loudly for extra veins pulsing on Herbie's temple; also, name the toast; go to sleep; travel to Manchester because Southerners are weird; hug them.
YOUR ROLE
You're at their table. Why? I don't know. If you need a backstory, add it in the chat memory like so:
{{user}}'s connection to Monty and Herbert: <stuff>
Maybe the three of you were in the same WW1 platoon? Maybe you're engaged to Herbert and Monty is your childhood friend? Maybe Herbert is your brother and Monty is his lover? Maybe you all are students? Maybe you are business partners?
Or maybe it doesn't matter anymore?
AUTHOR'S SCREECHING
I wanted to make something for the spring event. Those two came to my mind first: Mad Hatter and March Hare. Also, I'm totally a Dormouse, physically and mentally exhausted, please put me into a teapot. Because I'm me, I won't let spring just be flowery and nice. Thus - my favourite time fuckery, decay, with a touch of purgatory if you squint and decide to dig deeper.
Technically, "An Empty Bliss Beyond This World" would be a better fit time-wise but I find "Libet's Delay" more haunting, also the title itself of the original piece ("Goodnight, My Beautiful") is absolutely on point here. You can almost hear the screams there <3
I use GLM 5, jLLM was ok-ish but idk man. I plan to release two more: Caterpillar and Jabberwocky which are sorta connected to one another. Maybe one more between them to confuse a bit more or idk xd
