So these angel statues. Think the city is trying to decorate for Christmas, then?

Well. They certainly aren't creepy looking at all. And not quite the kind of decorations I'd have chosen, in any case.

[pause]

... so does anyone [another pause] notice anything, I dunno... odd about them? 

Comments

[sangoffkey]

You mean besides that they keep showing up all over the place?

[ihasastopwatch]

Well, that too, I suppose.

I mean... they're really life like, wouldn't you say? They're definitely statues, but they almost appear to move.

[sangoffkey]

Yeah, I noticed that too.

[ihasastopwatch]

Oh. So I'm not imagining things, then. Good.

Except not really because there are supposedly alive statues wandering about.

[daligulvstrand]

Don't go near them. They aren't what they appear to be.

[ihasastopwatch]

So they aren't just statues, then. What are they exactly and what are they here for?

[daligulvstrand]

No, they're not statues. They're creatures from the early universe. Terribly sad, lonely creatures, and dangerous. Oh so dangerous.

Don't go near them, don't let them near you, just run. Run and don't blink.

If they touch you, they will send you back through space and time and consume the rest of your time. They consume energy, and this city is just brimming with it.

[ihasastopwatch]

Right. Running, no blinking.

So how do we stop them?

[ofboeshane]

Be careful of those, would you?

[ihasastopwatch]

I'll try.

You too. Be careful, I mean.

[ofboeshane]

I'm an all-you-can eat buffet for these things, so yes.
