let's live our lives heroically / let's live our lives with style
'the crying of lot 49' by thomas pynchon

Oedipa stood in the living room, stared at by the greenish dead eye of the TV tube, spoke the name of God, tried to feel as drunk as possible. But this did not work.
spoiler bc it's lo~ng

That night the lawyer Metzger showed up. He turned out to be so good-looking that Oedipa thought at first They, somebody up there, were putting her on. It had to be an actor. He stood at her door, behind him the oblong pool shimmering silent in a mild diffusion of light from the nighttime sky, saying, "Mrs Maas," like a reproach. His enormous eyes, lambent, extravagantly lashed, smiled out at her wickedly; she looked around him for reflectors, microphones, camera cabling, but there was only himself and a debonair bottle of French Beaujolais, which he claimed to've smuggled last year into California, this rollicking lawbreaker, past the frontier guards.

really wish member directories required people to give a short summary on their muse(s),
an elevator pitch no longer than 100 words, perhaps, would make finding interesting characters easier.

both sound amazing, but i'm leaning towards lwa.
you could always try mixing the two though. in my opinion, lwa's pretty fairytale-ish, but dark fairytales exist.
