Monsters Outside

You're a middle-aged man who lives in a modest apartment. There are monsters outside.



And one of them is trying to get in, its arm slowly inching deeper into your home.

You are a little ashamed to admit that you were startled earlier and dropped your kitchen knife onto the floor when you saw the arm trying to grab your ankles.

You need to solve this problem before the arm goes so deep it can reach your bed. That would be very distressing.

You could try going for the knife. You could just stomp on the arm. You could also search for another weapon.

You could also try calling for help on your cellphone or laptop. You're not sure why the power's still on, or why the internet still works, but you know there are still people somewhere reading messages.

You can even try talking to the monster. Sometimes they answer back. Sometimes they don't.

Point is, there are monsters outside. One is trying to get you. If it touches your bare skin, you become another monster.

What do you do?
