BWUAHAHHAAH.... decided to do somthing else... BEHOLD!
What’s in my fridge? A simple, innocent, question that passes over our thoughts often enough for us to think nothing of it. Leftover turkey, a slice of cheesecake, a pack of batteries, eggs; a normal mundane never thinks beyond these sorts of objects as logical ‘fridge contents’. Anyone with broadened sense would be more inclined to consider a appropriately wider range of possibilities. While my kitchen fridge contains all of the above objects; my basement freezer holds, among other things, several jars of multi-use protoplasmic goo, onions marinating in holy water, a tome of the frozen planes (which generates the cold IN the freezer), and the severed head of Abraham Lincoln’s zombie (sans brain matter and hat).
I came by the freezer when I took up ownership of the house, mansion is more like it. I got the house when a lawyer handed me the deed. He handed me the deed while I was sitting in front of my old apartment building, amongst the boxes containing almost all of my material possessions. It was three stories, furnished in late nineteen-eighty’s ‘style’, and hooked up to the local power grid, but not the phone or DSL lines, or even the water system. The well service and a septic tank, however, were up to date and paid well in advance.
I became aware of these subjects as I read over a thick thread bound assembly of pages I can only refer to here as ‘The Manual’. It’s contents included the various requirements for the upkeep of the mansion, warnings about what would be required of me, and helpful bits of advice. Much of said advice was scratched out, and had edited, updated, or contradictory advice added in the margins. Various handwriting forms, typewriter fonts, and even ink block styles listed out my predecessors felt was:
‘Important information you’ll need because epiphanies never happen during a fight/flight/fright scenario’.
Such was the heading leading into that section. Starred were the bits of information I could share with non-broadened, among them the following are the most important for anyone reading this.
*Any journals kept must be kept secret or destroyed upon death Or published as FICTION and ONLY fiction.
*Nutters are rarely fae in disguise.
*Fae are dicks. Exception: Pixies, loyal friends. NO SECRETS
*Learn to fire a revolver. Keep several bullet types on hand.
After that anyone with common sense would have to question what I’d gotten myself into. That’s a stupid question, I didn’t ‘get myself’ into anything. This ‘destiny’ was thrust on me, as Shakespeare would say. I certainly wasn’t born a Piece Keeper.
