JustPrompts: Jail Cell Photo

It hadn’t looked like a jail cell.

In the beginning, it had been a place of wonder. A place where he could invent to his heart’s content, work on a project that seemed simply amazing. And if anything seemed surreal about it, anything out of place, he soon pushed it (had it pushed) from his mind.

Then came the operating table, and the cell door slammed shut amid screams of pain and blood and metal and bone and Hedgethorn and running running RUNNING

And for twenty years, he’d been locked inside. A prisoner of an old house with a too-large basement. A prisoner of a creature beyond human comprehension. A prisoner of his own amnesia.

It hadn’t looked like a jail cell.

But then, the worst ones seldom did.

Exactly. Poor guy.

Never thought about it like that. Of course, I was thinking more in terms of "squicky, yeeps, could never do that." Poor Metody -- even if he is used to it, that sounds like the least fun thing ever.

(LOL, nah. You should see some of the shit I write.)

It's amazing what you can get used to if it's a normal thing for your culture. Look at most normal medical procedures - say, mammograms, or prostate examinations. Sure, no one likes them, but everyone endures them sooner or later. But I bet if you grabbed some people from the 1950s, they'd be flabbergasted.

(Hooray!)
