tuesday pointless miscellany

1. There is a staircase behind my desk that says STAIR C. I do not know where it goes and am having a lot of trouble not just going and walking down those stairs out of pure curiosity. There is absolutely nothing bad about this plan at all, of course.

(This is an old building and people have died in it, just for the record.)


2. If anyone does want to throw flashfic prompts at me, please do. I realize a grand total of two people know any of my characters because I never post fiction here; I keep meaning to make a second account for that and am now just like, well, people can skip it if they don't want to read it. So ... I will pretty much take anything at all that you think might construe a prompt -- except an exact scenario, that is more like a suggestion -- and we'll see what comes out.


3. Have planned a graveside trip for Father's Day; am not sure if I should tell my mother or not? Because she might not like that I see the completed headstone yes my dad died in 2016 we're slow and it's hard to get there in bad weather which was most of the last year before her. She is in Michigan. I am not. I would prefer to be, but if I am going to be without any of my blood-family on such a painful day, I will have to do for myself.

If it helps (it almost certainly does not) I personally would TOTALLY FUCKING GO wandering down those stairs out of curiousity.

While carrying something made of steel, having also preemptively called "I'm just curious, I'm totally down to make friends or to politely ignore each other once I see where this goes, don't start none won't be none".

:D

I mean, to be fair: I have a huge THING about refusing to treat this shit as ~*untouchably scaaaary*~, I have pretty big guardians, and also I'm kind of a reckless twerp sometimes. XD But still! I mean, if you don't check you have an unknown threat potentially at your back!

what's important is that you have an extra office chair arm.

Of course you want to check out staircase C!

Hope your graveyard trip is as somber as you want and as pastoral as possible. (Some People* intentionally wait to put up headstones!)
