Thought for the day

[gement]

Occasionally, I see huge, masked figures, warlike, towering, but also distant and listless. They haven’t seen me. Or, if they’ve seen me, they haven’t cared. Or, if they’ve cared, they haven’t done anything with that feeling.

I’m not scared of them. There are so many things in this world to be scared of. Why add to that number when the only cause is you know nothing about them and they are huge? It would make no sense.

I know a schizophrenic person who says something very like this every now and then.

Only sometimes they do see her, and that's when she disappears for a while.

Oh dear.

Spoilers: Dana's turn out to be perfectly pleasant, if eccentric and warlike, entities who are helpful and kind.

I love this idea. Would that my friend experienced this.

From a much later interaction with the army:

"One of the warriors, whose name is Alicia, and who is not a woman or a man, and who is Doug’s partner, and who has a dog, and who is trying to make a new currency based on sand..."

(The dog is later revealed to be "a Bishon Frise the size of a Prius.")

I would be interested in sapphire-based currency, although I suppose that the electronics industry already has a currency based on sand.
