It's late at night, and you're home by yourself as a violent storm rages outside.
You're curled up with a good book, glancing occasionally out the window, as you wait for the storm to pass. Unexpectedly, you hear a strange tapping sound from the next room.
Tap...tap...tap...
The hair rises on the back of your neck. You know something is wrong.
As if to confirm your suspicion, a bolt of lightning strikes less than a mile away, followed by a deafening peal of thunder.
From the next room: tap...tap...tap...
You know you have to check it out, because if you don't, you'll go mad. So you put your book down, go into the next room, and find...
...nothing out of the ordinary, or so it seems. But still you wonder: what was tapping in here?
You return to the other room to go back to your book, when suddenly, lightning strikes seemingly just outside. The heavens seem to crack with the ear-splitting roar of the thunder, and the lights in your home go out.
That's when you notice that the window is open. How could this be? You're sure you had it closed and locked...
And that's when you realize...Absaraka is with you...

Or something along those lines. Hey, gang, dropping in from elsewhere online, if for no other reason than to have an excuse to check the con listings. Ran into Ivey at the con in New York a while back, and she all but begged me to join, so here I am. *bows*
(And for those who don't know me: I'm usually a lot more light-hearted than my entrance routine.)
