Thomas Tonguello
Architect, collector, searching for a way to tap into the hidden secrets of the Online Playmobil purchasing.
Then an accidental overdose of WI-FI radiation interacts with his unique body chemistry.
And now when Thomas Tonguello grows angry or outrage a startling metamorphosis occurs.
Leaving Online purchasing behind he tries to live an ordinary collector’s life until he can find a way to control the ragging spirit that dwells within him … THE MOZTER.

-OK, let’s start checking this articles - Dr. Peck thought while waiting for his next and new patient. - Mm ok here – he read aloud.
“Violence: the intentional use of physical force or power, threatened or actual, against oneself, another person, or …" bla, bla, bla… - I know all that. Next one -
“Based on the idea of human nature, scientists do agree violence is inherent in humans”– Yep, I knew that too – he kept looking for articles.
“Violence cannot be attributed to a single factor. Its causes are complex and occur at different levels … “ moving on …
-This one is interesting - “Since violence is a matter of perception as well as a measurable phenomenon, psychologists have found variability in whether people perceive certain physical acts as "violent". For example, in a state where execution is a legalized punishment we do not typically perceive the executioner as "violent" … Likewise, understandings of violence are linked to a perceived aggressor-victim relationship: hence psychologists have shown that people may not recognize defensive use of force as violent, even in cases where the amount of force used is ...”
DING DONG!
-Oh, he is early. I better not keep him waiting. - Dr. Peck walked the few meters that separated his desk from the office’s door and opened it. – Hello Mr. Tonguello, come on in please. It’s a pleasure to meet you.

-Good afternoon Dr. Peck, thanks for receiving me, and please call me Thomas.
(http://i1205.photobucket.com/albums/bb432/tonguello/the%20mozter/3w_zpsckwhzb3c.jpg) (http://s1205.photobucket.com/user/tonguello/media/the%20mozter/3w_zpsckwhzb3c.jpg.html)
-Thomas, then; please follow me - he said heading back to the desk. – Do sit down.
-Thank you Dr.

-I would like to start with a few background questions. You have seen other therapists before contacting me, is that right?
-Yes’ that’s right Dr.
-And for what I read you tried, all kinds of therapies, right? – Thomas nodded. - Did any of them help you with your problem; at all? In any form?
-Actually no. Well, Yoga helped for a while, until they suggested I should become a vegan, or “at least vegetarian”, those were their words.
-And?
- And I had an “episode”, and … - Thomas doubted for a while and then went on. – … so I torn down the place. I do love meat. – He added a little ashamed.

-That sounds a little bit like an over statement, I’m sure, ha ha ha!
(http://i1205.photobucket.com/albums/bb432/tonguello/the%20mozter/6w_zpsmipd2mpl.jpg) (http://s1205.photobucket.com/user/tonguello/media/the%20mozter/6w_zpsmipd2mpl.jpg.html)
-You shouldn’t be, Dr.
Dr. Peck was confused and curious about this new patient. Not one of the previous professionals that have seen Thomas had given much explanation or details about what these, as they seemed to call them, “episodes” were. Thomas looked so nice and “normal” to him, that he suggested moving to the couch to start officially the therapy session right away.
(http://i1205.photobucket.com/albums/bb432/tonguello/the%20mozter/7w_zpsoupoz90e.jpg) (http://s1205.photobucket.com/user/tonguello/media/the%20mozter/7w_zpsoupoz90e.jpg.html)
-Thomas; tell me why you seek therapy. What you expect from it?
-I think and hope it would help me to understand my “episodes” and eventually, to control them.
-What exactly are these “episodes” you keep referring to?
-Well… I lose control of myself when certain things happen. When I get frustrated or nervous … it is like I transform into someone else… I feel a sort of Dr. Jekill and Mr. Hyde, to be pretty clear.
-Interesting. What does exactly get you into that state?
-It could be anything actually.
-Injustice? Violence? Pain? Towards yourself or somebody else?
-Yes. Anything. Random stuff. Even images, or words.
-Even images and words? Thomas let’s do a little exercise; I’d like to get a clear picture of this. Now, just relax, I’ll say a few words and I want you to picture the object the word refers to, ok? Simple.
-All right.
Dr. Peck started saying words randomly seeing in Thomas not a single glimpse of a change or frustration until the word … - Duck - Thomas had an infinitesimal shiver and Dr. Peck noticed it, so he started saying words associated with the word “duck”. – Feathers – Nothing – Egg – Nothing. – Pillow. Beak. Hunt. – Nothing, nothing, nothing.
(http://i1205.photobucket.com/albums/bb432/tonguello/the%20mozter/8w_zpsdua9vvi8.jpg) (http://s1205.photobucket.com/user/tonguello/media/the%20mozter/8w_zpsdua9vvi8.jpg.html)
Dr. Peck went back to the root word “duck” and after a while thinking he said – Duck Dinasty? – Thomas screwed up his face and said – Ew! – But that was not the reaction Dr. Peck expected. He went back to thinking hard … - Donald Duck? – A significant shiver – Disney? -He ventured. Back to nothing. Maybe Donald means something else, he thought, so he said loud and clear – Mc Donalds’s – He got what he was looking for, Thomas gave a whimper and hold on to the couch.
(http://i1205.photobucket.com/albums/bb432/tonguello/the%20mozter/9w_zpsqac2ucyw.jpg) (http://s1205.photobucket.com/user/tonguello/media/the%20mozter/9w_zpsqac2ucyw.jpg.html)
Slowly Dr. Peck went on and simply said - Donald - A violent shiver followed by a small shriek and both Thomas’ hands flying up to his own mouth.
(http://i1205.photobucket.com/albums/bb432/tonguello/the%20mozter/10w_zps1o8y5jty.jpg) (http://s1205.photobucket.com/user/tonguello/media/the%20mozter/10w_zps1o8y5jty.jpg.html)
-Donald … Donald … Trump! – Thomas’s body went rigid - Donald Trump? – Dr. Peck repeated.
(http://i1205.photobucket.com/albums/bb432/tonguello/the%20mozter/11w_zpsghmuf7ph.jpg) (http://s1205.photobucket.com/user/tonguello/media/the%20mozter/11w_zpsghmuf7ph.jpg.html)
-Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah! - A shriek that made Dr. Peck’s notebook fly 5 feet into the air and his pen to get nailed right to the ceiling. Thomas stood up on the couch, face distorted, eyes crazy, jaw clenched; and that was when a very vivid audiovisual answer to Dr. Peck’s question “what exactly is an episode?” started.
(http://i1205.photobucket.com/albums/bb432/tonguello/the%20mozter/12w_zps5nhkkfrw.jpg) (http://s1205.photobucket.com/user/tonguello/media/the%20mozter/12w_zps5nhkkfrw.jpg.html)
Thomas’ body shook so violently that from Dr. Peck’s point of view, (that is from the floor after falling off his armchair), it was just a blur. All of a sudden the shaking stopped and there stood, what used to be Thomas, a purple creature, his “Mr. Hyde”.
(http://i1205.photobucket.com/albums/bb432/tonguello/the%20mozter/13w_zpsepvopoqn.jpg) (http://s1205.photobucket.com/user/tonguello/media/the%20mozter/13w_zpsepvopoqn.jpg.html)
-Thomas? –Dr. Peck asked. It seemed to him later that the question must have sounded actually like an insult.

The creature started to destroy everything in the office, books flew, bookcases went down, couches were flipped over, rugs kicked, pictures hanging on the walls crashed down onto the floor. It was pandemonium. When nothing else was in its original state the creature seemed to calm down, or get bored, and run off the office screaming: “BANANA!”
(http://i1205.photobucket.com/albums/bb432/tonguello/the%20mozter/18w_zpsloshl5eq.jpg) (http://s1205.photobucket.com/user/tonguello/media/the%20mozter/18w_zpsloshl5eq.jpg.html)
Dr. Peck moved from behind the desk and in a state of unbelievable disbelief stared at what was left of his office. He was starting to pick up slices of what used to be books when someone tapped on the window.
(http://i1205.photobucket.com/albums/bb432/tonguello/the%20mozter/19w_zpsb0uff3u0.jpg) (http://s1205.photobucket.com/user/tonguello/media/the%20mozter/19w_zpsb0uff3u0.jpg.html)

He turned and screamed, Thomas was there, fully nude, looking in, ashamed and disheveled. Thomas handed the Dr. a card through a creek in the window.
(http://i1205.photobucket.com/albums/bb432/tonguello/the%20mozter/21w_zps6zovkbyp.jpg) (http://s1205.photobucket.com/user/tonguello/media/the%20mozter/21w_zps6zovkbyp.jpg.html)
Dr. Peck was shaking but he too it and read:
Thomas Tonguello, Architect - Decorator
20% discount after 1st “episode”

“But you are naked, where the heck did you kept this card?” Dr. Peck was going to ask when he looked back at the window.

But Thomas was finally gone and so, Dr. Peck noticed, were the rugs.
The End.

Hmmmm interesting...
There's something I just don't understand. "Leaving Online purchasing behind he tries to live an ordinary collector’s life"
Normal collector's life - without online purchasing??? How is this possible? I just...don't understand....
-
:lol: Oh my, that was brilliant!!! Congratz, I really enjoyed reading that story ;D The photos, the backgrounds, the posing, the specia effects... it is all perfect.
-
:lmao: :lmao: :lmao:
I hope your custom... "coat hanger" survived!
(not sure I wanna know where the card was though.........)
-
I've been thinking about this all today.
- Why 'The Mozter'?
- Why is Donald Trump the trigger?
- Why were the rugs gone?
(I love that line: 'But Thomas was finally gone and so, Dr. Peck noticed, were the rugs.')
Brilliantly illustrated. Brilliant background. Especially the view out of the window, and the arrangement of books in the bookcase.
-
LOL :lol:
I hope it isn´t completely autobiographical! ;D
And I have the same question as Tim: a regular collector´s life without online purchases?! ???
Also about "the hidden secrets of online playmobil purchasing".... Any reference to real events/expierences in that?
About "Donald Tramp" ehhr (too much money) "Trump" being the trigger, I can imagine he gives some people the shivers...
-
Very nice story, you did a great job designing that room! So many little details, and great special effects too with the changing and the Mozter running around wildly.
Almost gives me the idea Thomas was doing it on purpose to get more work though. :P
-
Thank you everyone for the comments! :P :love:
To answer a few questions:
I hope those who were around in the late 70's and 80's noticed that the intro is based on the intro from the TV series "THE HULK" :) almost, word for word. :)
The general idea is also from the Hulk of course.
It's called THE MOZTER, because it sounds close to THE MONSTER ;)
Why Donald Trump? Maybe you haven't been following the news lately :) (btw that's the trigger in this episode, there will be others)
You get to decide why the rugs were gone.
a) Thomas took them to solve momentarilly his nudity problem (I personally would pic this one though it doesn't explain why he took both) :lol:
b) Thomas took them because he liked them
c) During the mayhem the rugs flew out of the window.
:P :P :P
Tim and Erwin, it sounds like science fiction I know, but since the restrictions on internet purchases were introduced in Argentina, I haven't bought a single item online (except for the PCC special sale) and it's been 2 years now. :(
More episodes to come!
:wave:
-
OH, so it's science fiction or Argentinian politics. Very similar from the sound of things...
Sorry you've been stuck dealing with that.
-
:lol: Fantastic story, love the set up and details, the special effects and the humor in the story. Very well made, thanks for the laugh!

Ah, yes, now I remember you told me about those restrictions some time ago... I thought it would be a temporary measure and had no idea they were still in place. As a collector not being able to buy Playmo online must be very frustrating for you... :(
I would rather call it "back to the 80´s" then SF, in the entire world online purchases have done nothing but rising and Argentina is doing the complete opposite... ???
Your government should rather limit military purchases instead, that would reasssure the British and folks on the Falklands / Malvinas :P :uhoh: :-X

You have such a Talent to tell the most amazing stories through clever chosen words and wonderful pictures :love: :love: :love:
Karim :wave:
PS : I love your new Avatar and I was most impressed with Argentina Rugby Team Game :cham: and a little less impressed with the French one :lol:
-
Thank you dear Karim!
We have rugby fever nowadays, it's as big a deal as football! :love: (soccer for the americans :P)
-
We have rugby fever nowadays, it's as big a deal as football! :love:
REALLY!? I had no idea anything could come close to football there... It doesn't here!
Our (rugby) team had a bit of a spotlight sometime ago, but it is very rare that we have news on that. Actually, it's not even mentioned.

yep, it's a big deal, but when the world cup comes it gets huge!

I just saw this, Gaston, and it's hilarious! It really had me laughing. Can't wait to show it to Chris, too. He loves minions. I think a lot of people have that reaction when they hear Donald Trump. :lol: Really well done!

:love: thank you bb!!! ;D
