~~Spam blocker, my ass~~ Not entirely sure I should be posting on a message board that an email with the aura of a Hitchcock film surrounding it sent me to, but I'm kind of afraid of what will happen if I don't. ~~wouldn't be the first~~ What is this all about?

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

I assure you that it's probably going to take more than a creepy-ass email that keeps popping up to really frighten me. Believe it. ~~scars to prove it~~

As you like. Shall I tell you everything, or would you like me to ease you into it?

When you put it that way, I'm pretty damn sure I just don't want to know.

You'll have to learn eventually. It's inevitable now that you're here.

~~Why couldn't they give me morphine for home~~ Inevitable? I don't even know what 'it' is.

Well, I'd have started telling by now but you keep asking me not to.

Fine. Tell me.

You've seen the news about the old gods, oui? The big incident back during the equinox?

That's us.

~~because I need this today~~ Right. Not feeling especially godlike with this broken leg.

Broken leg? Cher, what happened?

Shrapnel happened.

~~Oh, my poor Baldr!~~ I'm so sorry. What a horrible time for this to have fallen into your lap.

That's putting it mildly.

I imagine so. But it cannot be helped now. We will all try to guide you through this a painlessly as we can.

Ah, and my name is Wren.

I'm sure you will. ~~Whoever you all are.~~

Sean.

It's nice to meet you, Sean. Despite circumstances. Unfortunately, there is more to all this, but perhaps you would like a little time to adjust?

Would be preferred, though I have a feeling that it's not going to stop because I want it to.

I can see that some have chosen to just thrust you into the deep end of the pool here. I apologize for that.

Pool? Try abyss.

And what are you apologizing for? You can't control their brains.

I'm apologizing for their lacking sense of tact, and that you must endure it. I regret you are in the situation.

Yeah, well, I'm happy to take myself out of this situation. ~~Kidnapping? Really?~~

From what I can tell, once you open the email, you can't avoid the situation any more. I wish I had more comforting information for you. At least I can say that you are among those that would be your friends, if you will allow us.

Believe me. There is a step I'd like to take to avoid plenty more than this.

If you're insinuating what I think you are, then that is not acceptable. Absolutely not.

What's it to you? You don't know me.
