The auras come first, always.

Halos around objects, zig-zagging lines across my vision. Colored sparks of light dancing in my eyes. Sometimes I hear invisible people calling my name. Sometimes I smell smoke.

The first time it happened, I thought I was going crazy until the blinding pain struck and I couldn't even cry, it hurt so much. Now I watch the dancing sparks flicker and twirl until they start to sink and fade, and my mood with them.

I know I had better be lying down once they go, because that’s when the pain comes.

I hate those sparks.
