I hadn't stirred.
But there they were.
More pictures.
More angles.
The thing in the corner, always just far enough into the shadows that I couldn't see details, only shape.
I turned the phone off before bed after that.
I put it in the kitchen.
I still woke up to fresh photos some mornings.
The phone mysteriously powered on again, battery slightly drained.
It stopped after a week.
Or maybe it just got bored taking pictures.
The last time we all got together in person, me, Ryan, and Miguel, was about six months after the trip.
We met at this bar downtown that had good burgers and decent beer.
Normal guy stuff.
The desert stuff came up pretty quickly.
It felt like it had been waiting just under the surface of all our small talk.
You guys still having... weirdness?
Miguel asked.
Nightmares, I admitted.
Sometimes.
