Random Thoughts/Things?

I wasn’t really sure what to call this thread, but I’ve had this idea floating around in my head for awhile now. Basically, anyone can post anything here. Any random thought you have, any random thing that happens to you, any random question that pops into your mind. Have fun, and don’t be afraid to be random.

I thought I was too old to be scared of books anymore, but here I am, sleepless, proving me wrong.

Yes! 

Me: It's 9:40 pm, so I have time to read a bit of this mildly-horror-themed book I haven't had time to read earlier today.

Me: I'll be fine, my siblings are in the room next door and I'm not scared of my closet anymore! :)

Me: *reads chaper* Ooo, creepy, now I must find out what happens next! Who cares that it'll probably be midnight?

Me: *finds out what happens next* Oh dear I am Scared. Okay, I know it will be late by the time I get to the comforting explanation, but oh well, I'm in too deep.

Me: *keeps reading* *is startled by parents coming upstairs to go to bed*

Me: *finds out explanation* Whew! Such a relief! Guess I should go to bed-- WHAT WAS THAT NOISE????!!!!!! Oh, it's fine, just the creaky floorboards. *exits bedroom to use the bathroom*

Dark Hallway: *exists* *is quiet because everyone else is in bed* *is dark because it's night and lights are off (because everyone else is in bed)*

Me: Why are you freaking me out on purpose. I am Scared of you, but I will not admit it.

Me *tiptoes down hallway* This Is Fine. I've never been killed by scary darkness yet!

My subconscious: Did you consider the fact that you read a creepy book and it is dark in the hallway?

Me: *finishes up as fast as humanly possible, knocking a cup over in my haste and cringing at the Scary Noise*

Me: *hides all the way under the blankets (whether it's summer or winter) until I fall asleep.

 

Me: *does it again the next night, because  1) it's the next book in the series and I must find out what happens next, and 2) I forgot what happened last night* 

 

:D 

In case you can't tell, I did this quite recently.

Haha, how thrilling! Mind sharing?

My good mate Nick from NightMind has a tendency to have that effect on me too.

Does anyone else create a character or line of dialogue or scene and then get all excited and think "Ooh, now I really want to read the book!" except you have to write the book instead and can't get surprised by the plot twists and fangirl over the characters and enthusiastically generate fan theories and when you realize that you get really sad. Or is it just me?

Oh, I do that ALL the time. I tried to turn some into short stories, but I didn't have enough other ideas for it to work, so they turned out terrible and waaaaayyyy too short, so I scrapped them.

No, that happens way too often for me too... *sigh* XD 

*offers hug* *melts into a puddle of suspiciously candy-floss resembling goo*

WOW does the CBer SI thread remind me of the Magnus Archives, with all the NotThem. (Looking at you, Not-Graham and the other one.)

I finished the Owl House a few days ago and I'm afraid it's taken over my entire personality-

Also I need season 3 right now or I might go insane :DDD

I had a dream about season 2 of The Owl House being really... adult, I guess. It scared me bc it was one of those dreams that seems SUPER real but isn't. Still haven't seen season 2 but I really want to!
