[Obsessing over the numbers while trying to practice that weird skill for making small objects float was definitely a bad combination. Hugo seems to have gotten the control down enough to have caused the object to make tick marks for his set of numbers.

And then he sees a bunch of weird stuff on his wall, not realizing that it's also broadcasting him and his living room. He's sitting on a couch and the living room itself looks pretty nice. There's nothing around that would give away the fact that he owns an adult clothing store, not even his own appearance would right now.]

Great, so on top of the random things floating now I'm seeing and hearing things. As if I didn't have enough problems with these weird numbers getting in the way of bookkeeping each day. Definitely am still regretting going to that stupid art exhibit.

So either I became the victim of another joke from one of my employees or this is just a bad dream and maybe I'll wake up in the morning with no more weird stuff except for some of the customers. I'd really rather avoid having to visit a shrink.

You mean like this?

[Shou will be able to see a pen floating by the wall. One of the retractable types with the point retracted so he doesn't accidentally write on the walls. There are definitely no wires or anything holding it up.]

Something like that. It varies for each person.

And does that FAQ you have give anything about how to make it stop? I've already accidentally given out some free things because of stuff jumping into bags.

[ursoreckless]

No. None of us knows why we have this network or why we are starting to get these weird things or why we see weird creatures. What we have managed to figure out is that there is some kind of force out there that wants to get rid of everyone, and we're the only ones that can see them for what they are.

Great, it gets even better.

[ursoreckless]

It could always be worse.

[luredbypower]

How so? Other than I could be dead.

[ursoreckless]

Dead is only worse after you lose everything else.

[luredbypower]

From my own experience the worst thing is hearing the words "you have cancer". After watching my mom suffer through the treatments to later die painfully, those three words are the last ones I ever want to hear being said to anyone I know.

[ursoreckless]

...Cancer? [he looks haunted for a moment, eyes wide and his skin paling and then that moment is gone as he shook his head.]

That's always worse then death.
