01: phone textage

So after a few months of being in complete denial that I am quite possibly at least a little bit insane, I decided to check out this... magical psychic hotline number network thingy. Or whatever it is. I've come to the conclusion that you are all straight up batshit, and that I probably shouldn't have bothered for the sake of my own mental well being.

But fuck it. Work's dead and I don't have anything better to do right now.

But no seriously are you real people or am I just texting my brand new imaginary friends or something. Maybe you are people. Maybe you're evil telemarketers, and telemarketer technology has advanced to the point of transmitting numbers directly into people's brains. Or no better yet, maybe it's an elaborate government spy tool or something. I don't THINK anyone drilled anything into my skull during basic, but it could happen. Maybe THE MAN is watching me text crazyness to myself RIGHT NOW through my own brain.

Dear Government, if this is you get the fuck out of my brain before I set you on fire.

(just in case this IS the government, i won't actually set you on fire I'M SORRY)

[[a grin]]Only the most insane fucked up Egypt of all! There was magical items made from the slaughter of an entire village, corrupt priests working for an even more corrupt pharaoh who would seal the spirit beasts of people they deemed "evil" and use them to fight with themselves against other "evil" people who knew what bastards they were.

Alternate history, has to be. I've tried finding when anything like that might even be, but there wasn't any mention of anything that matched anywhere. Closest I found was some insane new age bullshit book, and when the author starts out talking about the aliens that she channeled to write you know you're not dealing with reality anyway.

Pretty much have to. Nothing else makes sense unless you're really into overly complicated conspiracy theories.

And even then, you'd have to factor in time travel.

Good. Cause you're going to have to get used to them.

[[He paused, leaning his bike up against a mailbox before crouching down to lock it up.]]

Makes it make a lot more sense and seem less insane to just wave it off as that anyway.

Not like you need it for pizza. You can head back for it later. [[but he might look a bit amused as he gets up and dusts his hands off]]

And it's less insane because if it's another world, it's another set of rules. So it could be perfectly normal to be a werewolf in Victorian London or a spaceman or anything else.

[[a shrug]] Not as weird as it could be. Unless you start turning into a zombie or growing horns or something. Then you're pretty much fucked in terms of passing as normal.

I'd think you'd be more likely to~ [[a grin]]

Besides. Odds are more that you'll become some sort of awesome monster instead. Have more of those than zombies. Or a robot. Have more of those than zombies too.

[[pushing open the door to the pizza place now, holding it just a moment to make sure it's not going to slam in Ray's face]]
