understand...
never have.
Things were much easier when I didn't try.
But it seems I have to, because I can't leave this alone, it'll just...niggle at me, on and on and on and all the what if's won't leave me alone, they'll keep me up at night staring at the glow in the dark stars on my ceiling with your words circling through my head over and over again
i need some tea and some time to think.

Remedy
for my own recklessness.
Vieve here.
I'M OKAY. Ish. In retrospect, what I did was extremely stupid so I am now beating myself up over it. Otherwise, I'm a little shaken and very tired and that's the only damage.
Okay, so this morning I went and did some grocery shopping, took it back to my flat, and then went for a walk. A rather long walk. I ended up in the domain, which is a half-an-hour journey by car, and then got the extremely bright idea of calling back the proxy that called me a week or so ago. Vivi fail.
I dialed the number and waited. Someone answered the phone.
G: Hello?
???: Please wait while we put you through to an Operator.
*slightly staticy silence for a couple of seconds*
???: *Unintelligible through distortion*
*burst of static, person hangs up*
(You can see where this is going, can't you?)
It was at about this time that I realised this was an intensely stupid idea. I stuck my phone back in my bag, got struck with a wave of nausea, looked around and lo and behold guess who was standing about three metres away in the trees?
I hefted my cricket bat, backed away slowly. I was pretty sure that if he tried something I could land a hit on him, but I wasn't sure just how effective it would be. He just stood there, his head slightly tilted, doing nothing.
After about three minutes of this something in me snapped and I yelled "Haven't you done enough, you creep?" and then ran. I know there wasn't any point running, he can follow people, he can slenderwalk, but it was better than standing there watching that blank face and those open arms.
I normally like hugs, but not from Eldritch Abominations. Especially not ones that try and off my friends.
Basically I freaked out, turned my phone off, and spent the entire day running around Auckland trying to throw it off. I didn't see it again, so I deemed it safe to go home.
I'd run, but there's little point. There's three days until the Solstice. I can last that long.

By the way, Chester, I'm not mad at you for blogjacking. This is easier when there are others to talk to.
