Shameover

Opening remarks

I could talk for a long time about how alcohol intoxication has a bad effect on our health, etc. But

you must admit that some of the most memorable and funny stories in our lives occur precisely at

those moments when we are relaxed and defenseless.

At the same time, we are happy and carefree, isn't it funny? Then we can conclude: is alcohol so bad if it

is moderate and generally makes us who we are? So I

thought, why not tell you a story about what can happen to completely ordinary guys on a

completely ordinary day or holiday when they decide to celebrate a particular occasion? And that

sometimes things can get out of control or just

become unexpected, which will change their ideas about the world in which they live. This story is

about two friends: Ignat and Igor. In general, they are outstanding and funny guys who, in general, have already managed to get settled in life.

1.

Igor

Igor is of medium height, with a slightly careless hairstyle (which he unsuccessfully tries to style), with brown eyes, in which a mixture of irony and fatigue

often flashes. He usually dresses in comfortable but low-key clothes: jeans, T-shirts with silly prints

(which are given to him for the holidays) and his old favorite leather jacket. He often wears glasses, which give him the appearance of a tired intellectual.

He is a skeptic by nature, but deep down he is a romantic who believes in miracles (although he denies it in every possible way). He has a sharp mind and a

sarcastic sense of humor, with which he often tries to

hide his fear and insecurity. In normal situations, he prefers to stay away, but at critical moments he

shows unexpected courage and resourcefulness. He's pretty lazy and doesn't like change, but he's always

ready to help his friends, even if it means getting into another crazy adventure. He works… as an archivist in the city library.

2.

The choice of profession is determined by several factors:

Love of books: Igor really loves books, their smell, texture, and the stories they hold. Working in the library allows him to be surrounded by his favorite subjects.

Calmness and routine: the work of an archivist is a fairly calm and routine activity, which generally suits Igor, who strives to avoid stress and unpredictability (until, of course, he is dragged into another crazy adventure).

Access to knowledge: working in the library provides Igor with access to a huge amount of knowledge. This can be useful when investigating another paranormal case (for example, when you need to find information about trolls, unicorns, or Baba Yaga).

Stability: Yes, unfortunately, working as an archivist does not bring a lot of money. But Igor has enough for a modest existence, books and beer. The main thing is stability and the opportunity to do what you love.

The ideal place for reflection: the silence of the library encourages reflection, which helps Igor analyze the

events happening to him and come up with plans to save the world (or at least to save himself from another trouble).

3.

In general, working as an archivist is not just a random

choice, but a conscious decision by a person who values

silence, knowledge and books. And, oddly enough, it is this calm and routine work that allows Igor to be ready for the most incredible adventures that constantly happen to him. Ignat
