Yes it’s a day!\u00a0 Yes it made me snicker for a few moments.<\/span><\/p>\n

Who’s read the book?\u00a0 Which is your favorite adaptation?<\/span><\/p>\n

Did we all know a new version is coming out?\u00a0 Which actually looks promising.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

And a small Sylum Snippet – this may not make sense.\u00a0 But it’s off a scene that’s in the updated version of Family.\u00a0 \u00a0Basically Issac Evan, Arthur and Nico ended up in a jail cell with Frankenstein…\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

Nico was sitting at his desk ignoring the world around him.\u00a0 \u00a0He was also trying to ignore his phone, but for some reason – he blamed Harold completely – it kept turning itself back on.<\/span><\/p>\n

‘Sir, you might want to read these messages.’<\/span><\/p>\n

He sighed at Jarvis’ statemen and snagged the phone from the far end of the desk.\u00a0 It would seem he got added to a group chat.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

‘It’s Frankenstein Day.’\u00a0 Issac Evans was the one who started the conversation.<\/span><\/p>\n

‘And?’ He could hear the clipped English tone in Arthur’s reply.<\/span><\/p>\n

‘Don’t you think we should celebrate?\u00a0 Or at least wish our jail buddy a good day?’<\/span><\/p>\n

‘Seriously.\u00a0 You bothered me for this.’\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Nico couldn’t help the chuckle while typing out his own commentary.<\/span><\/p>\n

‘Are we celebrating the book, the variety of adaptations or the twit that is trying to destroy us and the world?’<\/span><\/p>\n

‘All of the above!’\u00a0 Issac response was instant.<\/span><\/p>\n

‘I will make sure not to let Mary know about this.’\u00a0 It was obvious Arthur wasn’t thrilled.\u00a0 ‘Though I’m sure Max sends a card yearly with anthrax attached to it.’<\/span><\/p>\n

‘Who’s Max?’\u00a0 Issac was digging for information.<\/span><\/p>\n

‘If they haven’t introduced themselves by happy.’\u00a0 Arthur replied.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

‘Don’t ask.’ Nico added.<\/span><\/p>\n

‘Now I’m curious.\u00a0 Maybe should contact my brother.’<\/span><\/p>\n

‘NO’. Both Arthur and Nico typed at the same time.<\/span><\/p>\n

‘Now really curious.\u00a0 I’ve got spy friends you know.\u00a0 Let alone my Mate is a sneaky bastard with a large family.’<\/span><\/p>\n

‘Family actually attached to Frankenstein.’\u00a0 Nico commented chuckling to himself. ‘Nothing is true. Everything is connected.’<\/span><\/p>\n

‘Ah yes the secret red sash society as the chippie calls it.’\u00a0 He could feel Arthur’s eyeroll.<\/span><\/p>\n

‘Okay so no sending warm Frankenstein wishes to the asshole?’\u00a0 Issac added a few emoji’s just to make his point.<\/span><\/p>\n

‘Unless I can do it personally with a sword.’\u00a0 Nico typed out. ‘No.’<\/span><\/p>\n

‘Fair.’<\/span><\/p>\n

‘With that I’m off for bed since you yanks forgot about timezones.’\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

‘Not me this time!’ Nico knew he sucked at timezones and even dates at time.<\/span><\/p>\n

‘We should get together next year to celebrate!!’\u00a0 Evans was likely already making plans.<\/span><\/p>\n

“Let’s not … unless it’s Hunting.’\u00a0 Nico smirked slightly thinking of a hunt that would be.<\/span><\/p>\n

‘Totally in.’\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

‘Excalibur will be there.’<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
