What does the phrase “the scalding humor that erupted like bubbles in lye” suggest about Dee?

English

kherson [118]3 years ago

This phrase suggests Dee is an abrasive, antagonistic character. 

Walker makes this clear through this brief description of Dee. "Scalding" implies burning or blistering -- something hot and painful. "Lye" is a solution used for cleaning, one that causes painful burns if touched.

This brief description truly summarizes Dee's character: angry, abrasive, and antagonistic to her others, especially her family.

Dystopian short story So it is the future and anything goes - just remember - that whatever has happened has made everything eve
Fantom [35]

Hey darling, I already finished the story. Remember, a short story is only 500 words. I made 508; edit it to your convenience and will, I hope it helps.

"Do as I say or die!" those are the words resonating in the streets daily. There is crime and violence everywhere. You have to protect yourself with bullets and guns so you won’t get yourself murdered. And also you need to keep your head up, never know when human robots are going to attack. Of course, those metallic beasts are harder to kill, but, trust me it’s worth the bounty once the job is done. My name is Shillack, quite disturbing a name, isn’t it? Well… but, you ain’t here for that, ain’t ya’? Ya’ll here to hear the tale bout’ the ol’ robot, Shillack and his ol' companion Roger.  

Three years ago there was a wonderful woman named Sera. She was captured by the monstrous Jerald; he was half-human and half-robot. However, he had a heart and a mind, he wasn’t cynical, but his actions and doings were evil due to the tough a life we human beings had to suffer among the Earth after the last president died and the Senty took charge of the position as government. Senty is a group of mafia officials who bought the government with dirty money. And, among the leaders was Jerald. He never knew the deeply in love he would fall in love with Sera when he encountered her that lonesome Sunday day, something inside him switched and made all his metallic chords vibrate. It was love at first sight, and, he could not bear have her leave so he took her and hid her well amongst the many rooms of the white house. But, Sera was no ordinary gal. She was my sister and Roger’s betroth, we could not allow that metal of a man take away what we held most dear.  

We knew it was common, women were kidnapped and raped. But, not Sera. Sera could not be a victim. So, Roger and I hatched up a plan to take Jerald down. One day while Jerald took a stroll with her, handcuffed and in chains on the green grass of the white house Roger and I snuck from behind and shot the half robot with our Caliber 19 guns, but, it was to no avail. The robot turned around extremely angered and all of his insides began to burn to the extreme. From his stomach then appeared a gun, but, before shootin’ Sera got in front of him. “Please don’t kill them” she begged. The robot listened to her and didn’t harm of. However, he kept Sera, and till this day he is an unstoppable force. Like Sera many women are kidnapped never to see their loved one’s again, some are in a comfortable position, others are not. All in all, the future is not a pretty place to be. There is a lot of violence, gang wars on the streets when you least expect it, troublesome people stealing anything pretty they find, among other things.  

Now, I think and have a devastated heart after losing my sister to the robot, that half-human robot that is. Who would have known that techno stuff would have become so advanced till this point.
