"Get over here, gonna need your help fighting the Red Menace again." "Communists, huh?" "Worse. Tomatoes!"
In the late 70s, the United States of America were terrorized by the greatest threat they had ever faced. Tomatoes, unable to be reasoned with, unable to be stopped, unable to hold back their relentless bloodlust. It took a group of specialists put together by the president to discover their one weakness, using it to negate the fruit threat. Ten years of peace passed, aided by the U.S. Congress outlawing tomatoes, and the new generation grew up unknowing of the menace once posed. This was until Professor Gangreen found a way to transform tomatoes into personal soldiers, planning on reminding the world of why they once feared them as he became its ruler.

I used to play IL-2 Sturmovik and the old MS flight sims back in the day. I haven't played flight sims in about a decade. I want to get the new MS flight sim but I don't even have a joystick. The two main things I'm interested in are learning to fly a simple route in a 747 and just goof around in old warplanes. I really liked the feeling IL-2 gave me of a plane barely holding together during maneuvers. I don't care for replica controls, I just want a versatile option.
From what I've read you guys seem to either recommend VKB or Virgil. With Virgil the only option I'd consider would be WarBrd base and stick for €270... but I'd need a throttle right away for that setup. With a throttle it's a bit much.
The VKB Gladiator is currently not available. The Space combat edition is €211 for the premium and would get me started right away. If I add a throttle later that would still be cheaper than the Virgil. I'm not sure what makes the space combat edition space combat. It has twist for rudders... I definitely want that. Should I worry about any space related surprises?
Any options I'm missing or should I pull the trigger on the VKB?

Everyone that tried to make automatic docking for drones know how wonky it is to make dock on the side in planetary gravity. Apparently, the orientation of AI Flight block matter so much that if you force it to change orientation, entire drone will reorient, allowing to make docking from below. Unfortunately you can't just put AI Flight block on a rotor, it won't work from a subgrid. But with a little help from new small ship merge block and few virgins sacrificed to Lord Clang, you can bypass this limitation. I'm very close to make my own scriptless autonomous miner and it requires drills facing downward. While docking on side works most of the time, it sometimes fails.

I'm thinking of buying a board in Bali while i'm there since it's cheaper and shipping it back to where I live.
That way i don't have to worry about the cost of check-in luggage to and from since i have two connecting flights from Hawaii.
could i just use fed ex and ship the board directly to hawaii? how much would it cost?

I'm working on microsoft flight sim addon for a JU-87 and I'd like the startup to be reasonably realistic but I can't for the life of me figure out how they actually turned the engines on. There's a fairly high res photo of the instrument panel here: https://www.deutscheluftwaffe.de/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/Ju78B-1-640-Seite.jpg and the thing that seems to be the starter is in the bottom left, but it just looks like a piece of metal sticking out, is there a switch behind there?
In the Milviz JU87 for FSX they have that metal swing out to the left and there's a pull handle behind there, but I can't find any photos of that handle so I don't know how accurate that is. From the photos it doesn't look like it could possibly swing to the left, maybe it could swing out to the right?
Any help would be appreciated, I've got the pilot manual that ships with the Milviz addon but I don't speak German and the diagrams / translations aren't very clear.

Hello everyone,
I'm flying into IAH from Calgary and then have a 14 hour layover before continuing on to Savannah (single itinerary). I have two very large checked bags and questions about what the customs process will look like. Any answers you can share would be appreciated.
I saw that Calgary is one of the preclearance customs locations. Does this mean I will automatically have to be cleared by customs in Calgary before leaving? Or is that an opt-in process on the Calgary-side?
If I go through preclearance, am I correct my bag will be forwarded along to Savannah without me needing to pick it up in Houston?
If I weren't precleared by US Customs, would I be able to re-check my bags on arrival in Houston? Or does the long layover mean I need to wait with all my baggage until a couple hours before the flight to be eligible to re-check my bags?
Thank you so much for any info you can provide!

TW: suicidal ideation
I’ve been in a career related to my degree (engineering) for 4 years. I’ve been wanting to quit because of my anxiety pretty much the entire time. Ive worked from home since Covid and make a good amount of money. I would’ve thought working from home would help my anxiety, and while it has improved compared to going into the office, I am still incredibly anxious every morning. It’s the fact I have to constantly be in touch with a lot of people, host meetings, and present important information that triggers my anxiety. I feel like I’m constantly working while being on flight or fight mode. I’ve missed several days already this year because of the anxiety and subsequent nausea and vomiting. I’m on medication and tried therapy ( had 2 horrible experiences with therapists so I’ve been reluctant to go back )
It’s gotten to the point where I have suicidal thoughts almost everyday because of work so I feel like my only logical option is to quit. My partner and I will barely be able to live on just their income so I need another job, even though I know I will be taking a substantial pay cut which I am more than okay with if it means I can be happier.
So I am looking to find another work from home job with more independent work in which I only have to report to one or two other people. Does anyone have suggestions on jobs that fit this criteria? It can be any field that does or does not require a college degree. I’ve also considered door dash and Shipt, but live in a small college town so I am guessing that can be competitive.
I would really appreciate any suggestions and am open to hear what you do even if it doesn’t meet my criteria.
Thank you for reading this

Flying toward a big event and the attendant large tourist crowds is ordinarily my personal travel nightmare, but the total solar eclipse on Apr. 8, 2024 is a once-in-a-lifetime thing and we have a group of 8 that have been planning on experiencing it in Mazatlan for 5+ years now. The first SEA-MZT flights just started to become available a couple of weeks ago. Fares are mostly >$1,000 and all have monstrous layovers ($450-500 is more typical for this timeframe, as it's after the spring break crush).
I assume current inventory represents a negligible fraction of the total inventory that will be released by airlines over the coming months, but I'm curious to hear from people who really pay attention to airline pricing dynamics about how "event" airfares usually evolve over time (I'm thinking Super Bowl, Olympics, etc.). Is there usually a sweet spot for pricing? What premium should I expect to pay above and beyond seasonally-typical fares? I'm finding it surprisingly hard to track down the relevant historical data.
Not including airlines / flight numbers because I don't think they're relevant to the question, which is about aggregate dynamics.

Hello, I don’t post on reddit but I have found a degree of comfort from scrolling through this page the fast few days, and would appreciate some more support/advice. It’s a long post so if anyone reads it would be grateful however if not I just want to vent as well.
I am currently on holiday, having flown last weekend, but feel like I am not enjoying it as much as should as I am so worried about flying home. I managed the flight on the way here as I had not been on a plane in a while and didn’t really know what to expect. However, having been on one last weekend I can’t stop thinking about how much I hated it, and how much I am dreading the next one.
I know statistically how tiny the chances of the plane crashing are, however that is not entirely my concern. It’s hard to describe but I guess it’s a culmination of all sorts of fears, like lack of control, crowded places, heights, germs. Basically my worst nightmare. I would be lying if I said I wasn’t scared of the plane crashing, but if possible I am more scared of something minor going wrong in the plane and having to divert/emergency land all whilst not knowing what’s going on, and thinking we are about to crash. I don’t know if it makes sense, but I am almost more scared of the anxiety that planes cause rather than anything else. When I said the plane here was fine, I only meant that I got on and off fine, but the actual experience was a awful and I had a panic attack basically the entire time (stupidly, I’ve forgotten my anxiety medication). In this sense, it is a lot harder to convince myself it will be okay as what I am most scared of is basically inevitable.
I feel really guilty for not really enjoying this holiday as I was really looking forward to it. I would like to be able to take advantage of my last few days if I can. The friends I am with know I am an anxious flyer but not much more than that as I don’t want to risk ruining their time as well. However, this does mean I don’t know who to talk to. I guess I just feel trapped, because it is my way of getting home, which is a bit like how I feel in airplanes too.
Speaking of, I live and am travelling in Europe and so, whilst very impractical, it would be possible for me to get the train home. This would be a day’s worth of travelling and far too much money (which perhaps gives you a sense of how anxious I am considering I am seriously thinking about just hopping on a train instead).
Any advice or support or things that has helped you would be appreciate, or if anyone is going through something similar and would like to discuss. Thank you, and sorry for the rant.

Hello all!
So, in a few weeks I will be flying for the very first time! It is already causing a lot of anxiety because it's my first time ever, but, added onto it, I'm a big girl! I am flying from Ohio to California on united airlines and I have an economy plus seat. I'm flying with my mother (also a bigger lady, but not as big as me). My brother bought three seats for us to ensure we're comfortable.
Basically...obviously... I'm freaking out and seeking advice. I've heard of seat belt extenders, my brother thinks they'll have some, but I've been tossing the idea around of buying one.
Regardless, I have two major concerns!!
1) Fitting in the seat! I am about 5'4-5'6 and I wear a size 26/28. I am more of a belly fat girl, rather than it collecting in my hips or butts. I'm just worried about fitting and being comfortable. My brother, who recently flew out of country, told me he saw bigger people on the plane than me and they were fine. But, my anxiety riddled mind is telling me he's lying to make me feel less anxious.
2) bathrooms!! The pictures make the plane I'm flying in, a Boeing 739 max, look like the bathroom door is a latch door or normal one. As opposed to the folding doors I think are normal for planes. My biggest concern is fitting in the bathroom. It's a 6 hour flight and there's no way I can go that long without drinking and using the restroom.
So, is there anybody on here that can share their experience? If you're around the same size as me, what was it like for you?
Any help is greatly appreciated!

Hi guys, I saw a post where the guy narrated briefly how a blizzard saved him. And that inspired me to writte my own little story, basically I started a new run in interloper and I plan on narrating the events from the perspectice of the character I created. Here is the very beginning. If you enjoy I can post more in the future
It was supposed to be short flight from the Island to the mainland to go fetch some much needed supplies, however, lessa than an hour after take off something happened, te lights in the sky, they started to shine much brighter than ever before and suddenly the engine just stopped, I tried to start it up again, but to no avail, nothing in my panel worked, I had completely lost control over my plane and I was forced to land in Greatbear island.
The plane crashed and I passed out.
When I woke I was freezing eventhough fire burned not far from me the tail section of the plane was destroyed, I got up, thankfully not too harmed and started searching, but the fire had consumed the plane before I could recover much of anything. Now I am stuck here, with only the clothes on my body and a tin can I manage to find on the floor.
I am writting this journal in case I don't make it back, so if my body is ever found they know that the Captain Theresa Martins, fought for her life, now I am stranded in this forest, it's night time and I need to look for shelter.
All I know about Greatbear Island is that it was abandoned in the 80's by most of it's population. Because of the scarcity of resources and the bad weather.
I still don't understand what caused the crash.

Book Cheap Flights

Hello all, I’m going to have about 4 days free in an itinerary for late August. Leaving from Oslo, I’d like to rent a car and drive around. Although I know it’s more expensive, I’m planning to rent the car in Oslo and likely drop it off in Trondheim. From Trondheim I’ll take my flight to the next destination on the 5th day. I’m currently planning to sleep in the car (I’m quite short and I’ve car camped a lot in the US so I’m hoping this will work?).
In those 4 days I’m not entirely sure what I should do on the way to Trondheim. I’m a big fan of nature and Vikings/archaeology. While I am fairly athletic, I wouldn’t want to do more than a 4 hour hike and since I’m short on time alternative ways to see nature (such as cable cars, zip lines, ferries) all sound appealing. Does anyone have any recommendations for short roadtrips? I am someone who doesn’t need much rest (essentially I’m an energetic insomniac) so I can cram a lot into most itineraries.

The apartment was cheap, but not suspiciously so, especially given the relatively decrepit state of it. It was a 1 bedroom affair, the building itself constructed at some point before the Great Depression, and it certainly showed its age. The bathroom was prone to mold, the windows let in a draft even when closed, and the fact that it was up 6 flights of stairs in a building where the elevator seemed perpetually out of order certainly didn't help. However, beyond these usual allowances made for an affordable apartment in a city such as mine, there were no outward signs that anything wrong with the place. There were never any strange noises, unusual cold spots in the center of rooms, no eerie lights. For all intents and purposes, the apartment appeared utterly mundane.
It took me a frankly embarrassing amount of time to notice the door. 7 months in fact. I've never been much of a night owl, and on the rare occasions when I did have reason to be up in the wee hours my time was generally spent in someone else's bedroom.
At first, when I noticed the door, I assumed that I was hallucinating. I was, after all, in a fairly inebriated state, having just returned from a rather pleasant evening of laughter and debauchery. I already had experienced considerable difficulty in extricating my key from my apartment's lock, so I figured it was more likely that something had gone wrong with my perception rather than the unlikely scenario that a wood paneled door had suddenly materialized in my living room where previously there had only been wall.
It was old fashioned looking, with a shiny brass knob and wood the color of old leather. I shook my head for a moment and blinked, squinting at the object. The door was still there. I rubbed my eyes and closed them, counting down from 10. When I'd finished, I opened my eyes again. The door was still there. I'm not exactly sure what I thought counting down from 10 was supposed to accomplish. Beyond one mercifully brief experience with salvia at a very bad party, I'd never experienced hallucinations before, so I was sort of going off of what I'd seen in movies and TV shows.
There was something intensely unnerving about the door. It emanated a feeling of primal wrongness, I instinctually knew that I was gazing at something totally in violation of the natural order. It took a lot of willpower to do what I did next.
Having exhausted all other apparent options to my disorganized mind, I moved on to the next logical stage of inquiry; I tried to open it. The doorknob was cold to the touch, arctic even. It felt like touching the inside of a freezer. A shiver ran down my back, though I can't be sure in retrospect if it was entirely from the temperature. I tried to turn the knob. It didn't budge.
An immense sigh of relief escaped my lungs, releasing a breath that I didn't know I was holding in. Trying to think of what else I could do, I pulled out my phone and snapped a quick photo of the thing, sending it to my landlord, with a caption somewhere along the lines of "wtf is this dude, y is there a new door???"
Nodding sagely to myself, as if I had succeeded in doing anything of note, I stumbled my way into my bedroom and locked the door before falling into blissful slumber.
I awoke to the incessant screeching of my alarm clock loudly informing me that it was 7 o' clock, about 6 hours from when I had fallen asleep. I slammed my fist against "off" button and rubbed the sleep from my eyes with my other hand. In following with my usual morning routine, I then pulled out my phone and checked through my notifications.
Alongside the usual torrent of internet pseudo-acquaintances posting pictures of their brunches and whatnot was a text message from my landlord. "What are you talking about Christina", it read, "is this photoshop or something?"
At first, I didn't understand what he was referring to, but when the rusted gears of my sleepy (and hungover) brain finally started turning, I immediately jumped out of bed and scuttled over to the spot where the door had been just 6 hours prior. I did so with the intent of recording a video to further prove its existence to my skeptical landlord... but I was greeted with nothing but wall.
I texted my landlord an apology, lying and saying it was just a poorly thought out prank. Then I popped into my car and drove down to the local electronics store to purchase a camera from the grumpy underpaid college student behind the register.
Making my way over to the photography section, I searched a long while for the option that simultaneously fit my budget and the requirements for my investigation. Eventually, I found just the item.
It was a trailcam, the sort of thing hunters and geriatrics with too many acres of land and not enough hobbies use to observe wildlife. It had an SD card with enough space for several hours of blurry, black and white nightvision video, and most importantly it was cheap. I paid for my prize with the surly cashier and made my way happily back to my apartment.
I set it up securely in front of where the door had previously appeared, and, feeling like a genius, went about the rest of my day. I fell asleep that night secure in the knowledge that by morning I would have proof of what I had seen the night before.
The next morning, I rushed over excitedly to my living room, feeling like a child on Christmas morning. My giddy excitement died as I stepped into the living room, noticing the complete lack of the trailcam. Old Saint Nick appeared to have shit in my stocking.
I made my way back to the electronics store, forced once again into interacting with the student behind the register for whom my very existence seemed to be an inconvenience. Upon noticing my arrival, he sighed heavily. "Can I help you ma'am?" he said, emphasizing the last word with the same inflection one might say intestinal parasite.
"I'm looking for a cheap camera that will stream video directly to my computer." I said, trying my best to avoid mimicking the man's petulant tone.
Shrugging his shoulders and releasing another drawn out sigh, the cashier shuffled his way over to the photography section and picked out a small camera, rather similar to the last one I purchased, but approximately twice as much in terms of cost. "Do you have anything cheaper?" I asked, trying my best to sound polite.
"No." declared the cashier, with all the compassion of an exterminator crushing a cockroach beneath a steel toed boot.
I ended up paying the exorbitant price on my already abused credit card, and grumpily stalked back to the apartment to set up the new equipment, knowing I wouldn't get to see it after the night was over.
Nevertheless, I had to know how the door got there, and I needed to have irrefutable evidence.
The process to set up the new camera was a bit more involved than the last. There was all manner of fiddling about with connecting the device to my WiFi network and installing some new software to my computer, but by the time it was over it successfully uploaded footage directly to my hard drive where I could watch it at my leisure.
I went to bed that night wondering what I would do with the footage after I acquired it. After all, I couldn't really go to the police with it, could I? Excuse me officer, I imagined myself saying, but a mysterious door appears in my apartment at night, and I was wondering if you could send someone around to take a look? I'd end up institutionalized. Similarly, it's not like I could go to the newspapers either. I live in a big city, and the reporters have more important fish to fry than transient doors.
At some point while I pondered my options, I must have fallen asleep, because the next thing I knew I was awakened by the banshee cries of my alarm clock, angrily informing me that it was once again 7 o' clock.
I jumped out of bed, excitedly moving over to my computer to check the footage, finding that there was about 5 hours of video. I had turned on the camera at around 10 o' clock PM, so that meant whatever happened to the camera occurred at about 3 AM.
I set the video to fast forward and watched it carefully. The first 2 hours or so showed nothing, just the regular blank wall. At exactly 12 o' clock, however, static engulfed the screen, and suddenly the old wooden door simply appeared, as if it had always been there. I rewound the footage and played it at normal speed, trying to discern anything that would show how the door suddenly manifested in the wall of my apartment, but the static was far too heavy to tell. The video simply got incredibly distorted for around 10 seconds, and suddenly the static dissipated and there was the door.
Even on video, just looking at it gave me the chills. That sense of complete and utter wrongness came through even from the screen. I shivered slightly and set the video on fast forward yet again. There was no change in the door for nearly 3 hours, but as the video crept closer and closer to the end, I switched it back to normal speed with about a minute to spare.
As I watched, the door began to slowly open. There was no microphone built into the camera, but I could imagine the ancient hinges creaking. I could feel my palms begin to sweat as I stared, transfixed. I glanced at the time remaining on the video, it was only around 30 seconds.
As the video progressed onwards, the door eventually swung fully open, revealing a black, yawning void beyond it. Static began to gather at the corners of the screen, increasing in intensity as I vaguely discerned something moving in the darkness. The quality was rapidly degrading, and I couldn't tell any specifics, but it moved in an almost spider-like manner, skittery and deeply unnerving. It seemed just about to come into view when the footage fully dissolved into static and the video ended abruptly.
I leaned back in my chair, contemplating my next move. While the video had certainly convinced me that I wasn't just going crazy, I knew that it wouldn't exactly convince the average person. I could easily have added in the static with editing, and the vague movement behind the door could just be computer generated effects or some sort of puppet. After a few minutes of pondering, I came up with an idea.

"I'm sorry, what?" exclaimed Lilith, who was trying hard not to choke on her iced coffee.
"A door. It appears in my apartment at exactly midnight. I have it on video", I replied, sliding my phone across the table of the coffee shop.
I first met Lilith in college, where we shared a course on the history of Gothic literature. She was a perfect picture of the stereotypical goth, with pierced septum, dyed black hair, pentacle earrings, and a wardrobe whose diversity of color could charitably be compared to that of a raven. We hadn't spoken in a long time, but I figured if there was anyone I should contact about this sort of thing, it would be her.
I'd condensed the 5 hours of footage down to a few minutes with the help of a free online video editor, and watched in slight amusement as Lilith's brow furrowed, her eyes glued to the screen. After the video ended, she seemed utterly amazed.
"Any thoughts?" I asked, pulling back my phone.
"This is some sort of joke, right? You're screwing with me?" she asked, utterly bewildered by what I had just shown her.
"No joke. No screwing around. I figured you'd be the one to ask about this, because of the whole, you know..." I said, gesturing at the leviathan cross emblazoned on her black t-shirt.
Lilith rolled her eyes at me and fidgeted nervously with one of her bracelets. "I'm not sure Christina, this seems a little bit outside of my pay grade. I don't really know what you expect me to do."
"I just need a witness of some kind. What I've got here isn't really enough to prove anything on its own, but if someone else sees it that might lend me a bit of credibility. If some random chick goes to the news complaining about a mysterious door appearing in her living room at midnight that's nothing, but if I get a witness then they might have to listen to me. Plus, I figured maybe you could, I don't know, set up some form of protective circle or sigil or something." As soon as the last words left my lips, I felt like a moron, but Lilith actually seemed to perk up a little bit.
"I mean, I guess that makes sense. How about tonight? I can come over at about 11 o' clock so we have a little bit of time to get ready", she said, a tinge of excitement in her voice.
"Sound's like a plan then, I'll text you my address. I really appreciate you doing this for me." We got up from the booth, exchanged hugs, and went our separate ways. I was skeptical about how much good Lilith's "magickal" expertise would do with regard to the unearthly door, but I had mainly mentioned it to get her interested.
I wish I hadn't.
---
About 12 hours later, I heard a knock at the door (my front door, in this case, not the impossible one). I peeked through the peephole, saw it was Lilith, and I ushered her inside. She had brought with her a black leather bag, bulging with various books, candles, jars, and other occult accoutrements.
"That's a lot of stuff", I commented, gesturing towards the bag, "are you sure you'll need all of it?"
She shrugged. "I figured it's better to be safe than sorry. I'd rather be overprepared than come up short."
"Seems reasonable."
I showed her the spot of the blank wall where the door appears and she began setting up candles and incense, drawing strange signs with chalk, and pouring salt in a semi-circle in front of where the door would be. As she worked, she occasionally read out loud from some cheap paperbacks with titles like "The Witch's Bible" and "The Unquiet Dead: A Field Guide to the Afterlife".
To be entirely honest it was incredibly underwhelming. I didn't feel any "mystical energies" or unseen vistas of space and time yawning before me. There was just a goth screwing around with some candles while reciting mangled Latin out of books she got for 4.99 apiece at a charity shop.
Nevertheless, I let Lilith get on with her business and sat back drinking some cheap beer. After about 45 minutes she seemed satisfied. The floor and walls were covered with crude sigils done in white chalk, and the whole room smelt of incense and scented candles. I checked my watch, seeing it was 11:48.
I offered Lilith a drink but she declined, instead just taking a seat and fidgeting a bit with her jewelry. We talked for a while about what the door could be, where it came from, that sort of thing. Lilith seemed convinced it was must be the restless spirit of a former tenant, but I was a bit skeptical. While at this point I could no longer honestly say I didn't believe in the supernatural, this didn't necessarily strike me as some sort of haunting.
"I don't think it's a ghost", I said, taking a sip from my near empty can, "it strikes me as something further beyond our realm of experience than that. Something, I don't know, alien somehow. I mean it changes reality itself doesn't it? It transmutes a wall to a door, and let me tell you that door was real wood and the knob was real metal. Aren't ghosts supposed to be intangible or something?"
Lilith seemed like she was about to say something before she paused, a weird look crossing her face. "Christina, what time is it?" she whispered.
I checked my watch, the digital face reading out 12:07. I turned to see the door. It had been there for 7 minutes and we hadn't even noticed its arrival. Something about us not having realized it was there bothered me far more than its materialization. Was it possible that I'd passed by it in the apartment before and just never noticed it? I'd previously assumed that I'd simply always been asleep or out of the apartment when it materialized, but now I wasn't so sure.
Lilith had turned to look at it too, after a moment saying "It's like it's always been there."
The next 3 hours passed slowly, painfully. We snapped plenty of pictures of the door at every conceivable angle on our respective phones, videos too, and decided that after it disappeared again we should take footage of the bare wall for contrast. Lilith and I chatted a bit, but it was hard to continue conversations for long. Now that we had noticed it, we could feel the wrongness emanating out from the door, as if we were being watched by something just out of sight.
I don't know if there is such a thing as true evil, some sort of absolute moral right and wrong on a spiritual level. But being near that door, I felt like I was bearing witness to an atrocity against reality itself. We spent the last 2 hours of observation in nearly complete silence. It seemed like the longer we were cognizant of the door, the worse the feeling of discomfort got. If you've ever been on a roller coaster, you'll be familiar with the feeling of going up the track towards a long drop, the tension in your very blood as you brace yourself for the fall to come. As we sat there, I felt something similar.
I almost wanted to call the whole thing off, just have Lilith and I go to a 24 hour fast food place or something and call it a night. But I had to know.
Unlike with the door's appearance, we noticed when it started to open. We sat there, paralyzed with fear and excitement as it slowly started to creak open, the worn hinges squealing just as I thought they would. The room grew significantly colder, until we were both shivering intensely. Behind the door was void, absolutely void. It was black as the depths of the ocean and emanated pure dread. The smell of incense and scented candles seemed to dissipate, replaced with a vague stench like rotting seaweed.
Finally, the entrance was swung fully open, and we sat there, staring blankly into it. We didn't even try to pull out our phones to record what we saw. The thought to do so didn't cross my mind until well after.
I could see something start to move in the darkness beyond, some sort of motion, spidery, skittering. It was coming towards us. I caught a vague glimpse of a long, thin limb reaching out from the door, coming towards us, grasping blindly from out of the dark, and then-
I felt the sun shining on my face, my entire body sore.
I opened my eyes to find myself lying on the ground, outside. There were trees overhead, but the foliage wasn't dense enough to block out the light which had awoken me. All things being equal, I would have preferred my alarm clock.
I stood up, painfully, taking stock of my surroundings. I was in a park, one which I had been to before, located a couple miles from my apartment. I looked for my phone, but couldn't find it. I began to stumble my way back home, trying my best to ignore my aching muscles. I called out for Lilith a couple times, but was met only with silence. She was gone.
As I limped my way along, a passing jogger called out "Nice tattoo". Confused, I looked down at my arm.
Burned into my flesh in white letters, as if through frostbite, were the words "BRING MORE".
