We have a lot of those. It makes sense. I can walk into a crowded room and tell if something is off. Same. When I was a kid, I had active conversations with shadows and was able to know if something bad was going to happen. I was obsessed with the supernatural and devoured literally anything remotely on the topic of ghosts, species, and magic. Elena? I can't do that.

I also had a bad case of the night terrors. Me too. And slept with the light on constantly because although little me likes to think she didn't have the word fear in her vocabulary, she was actually a fearful little bean that couldn't get a full night's sleep to save her life. I was the same. As I grew older, I learned how to combat the bad dreams by waking myself up by counting to five.

I have to pinch myself or move my fingers. I would often lay awake watching the shadows on my ceiling morph into various demonic shapes. This was after I had been shamed into sleeping with the light off because I was, quote, a big girl now. Side note, fuck you. The night is dark and full of terrors and I'll sleep with the light on if I want to.

And I agree with you. Fuck that shit. I'm a big girl now. Shit. I will never say that to my kids. No. Because I am 39 years old. I have to sleep with the TV on. And I still need the TV on because of the light and like light murmuring sound that blows me into sleep.

I like that. It freaks me out. I mean, hey. Yeah. You got to go with your gut.

You think something's weird. You got to go with it. Yeah. No, I feel that. The girls have, like my kids have this like constellation light that's like the northern lights with like stars. It's so pretty. And it is every night. It has to stay on. And when I go up to bed after they've gone to bed, I go into the room just to like check on them. It's just like a habit. I have to do it.

And then I always turn it off and turn it back on so that it won't cycle through and shut off in the middle of the night because they will wake up and be like, ah. So it's just like a habit now.

I would use it. Yeah. But John doesn't like light. This is his actually. Yeah. Because he does not like light.

Yeah, that's the thing. I need, I'm not a like bright light person at night. So like I can handle certain TV shows, but they have to be like calm.

Yeah. Makes sense. You know? Anyway, this story takes place much more recently than I would have liked it to have taken place. This story begins with a mirror. Now, this mirror isn't the small spooky mirror from a horror movie with a gilded frame, but This mirror is the size of a fucking wall and resides in the bathroom I share with my partner and one of my flatmates.
