"Well this is just great, just fucking peachy! Just when I thought everything was gonna be fine the damn company downsised" I ranted sorely," 'least the dumb fucks gave me enough compensation to last a few weeks" about ten minutes later I reached my driveway and drove my ever-reliable 92' Subaru SVX into the garage, shut off the engine and just sat there, thinking.

After a few minutes I unloaded the car, closed the garage door, and entered my little flat. The place was small, 1 floor, a basement, and a decent sized yard, basic amenities, I liked it at least. I put my box of stuff from my desk in the entry way, walked another 10 feet into my study/gaming room and booted up some Destiny. I started thinking about what to do, ' I think I'm gonna go out to the shooting range tomorrow, yeah, that oughtta help, may as well look for a job too,' I thought.

Two and a half hours later I had a bowl of cheap ramen, and went on the internet, I just watched dumb videos and read the news for a few hours, ' man, Dave you've stooped low to be reading an article about fucking pothole issues of all things, in fucking Colorado, Land of the potholes! Ugh." Another hour later and I'd thrown on some sweat pants and an old t-shirt with what used to be a picture of the space shuttle on it, it was a faded mess now. I brushed my teeth and just sorta flopped on the bed dejectedly.

I finally fell asleep, then even my dreams started to go nuts, I had a dream where I was in some kind of glass tube thing being observed by this weird purple lady, her head looked like it came straight outta MLP, even stranger was the fact that it seemed almost real, almost real enough to be scary.

I went about my life for the next few days, looking for work, and doing some blacksmithing to make some money on the side until I could get back into a job. Ever since the first weird dream it kept happening, with each iteration becoming more vivid, until it reached a point. In the dream I felt seasick, and my perception of reality distorted beyond belief, memories flashing past, then it stopped, all was still.


Author's Note

Finally, the human shows his existence

It's short and slapped together, but it'll do for now, I've been focusing on moving the plot along for the moment, but this will be reworked eventually
