ysabetwordsmith: Cartoon of me in Wordsmith persona (Default)

 My friend [personal profile] aldersprig recently did a livewriting project, Drakeathon.  One result of this was the flash fiction "Souvenirs" which takes place in the same universe as my poetic serial Monster House.  See how several roommates deal with curious events in their house.

The really funny thing?  The metaphysical critters in the house where I live actually do this.  Stuff disappears or moves, but also, sometimes we wind up with stuff that nobody human brought into the house.  That's why I say things like, "I'm a good packrat; I can find what I'm looking for, plus or minus 10%."  The latest utterly wacky occurrence: while my partner and I were getting into bed, my pants somehow moved from the end of the bed to the head of the bed under the covers, while I was already in the bed.  Teleporting pants.  Gotta love it.

You just never know what metacritters will take. Usually they'll snitch jewelry or food, sometimes books or clothes. But then it will be something really odd, like a roll of butcher paper that's almost too heavy to move by hand. (Turns out the fairies wanted that for the same purpose I did: pattern drafting.)

It is great for getting rid of sticky stuff. And smells like citrus!
