Week 4 - The Elephant in the Room

[streetnights]

Listen, son, we need to have a talk - since you’re about to go into the city for the first time, I need to tell you the story of them, so that you won’t gawk and look like a idiot

Creepy and chilling spoken so matter of fact. Very well written.

I enjoyed reading it.

[streetnights]

I thought it'd be a good angle to approach it from.

Thanks!

Very creepy - reminds me of V a bit. Well done!

[streetnights]

Probably should remind you a bit about Independence Day too, or maybe The Day the Earth Stood Still (not the Keanu one. I think?). I hoped it wasn't too familiar, though I think all 'alien visitor' stories share some archetypes.

Definitely not too familiar - just enough to make me really have to think about it. That whole "we didn't see them coming" bit. :)
