Theater of the Mind: Reverse physics.
15 years ago
This idea came from a conversation I had with
Spunky a while back.
Differences between my irl self and Spunky's irl self couldn't be more pronounced. I'm 5' 11" and 245lbs. Spunky would be stretching it at 4' 8" and maybe 100lbs soaking wet. Thing is for some reason basic laws of physics seem to be reversed for us.
When Spunky walks around she does so in a loud, noticeable manner. I for some reason have the inadvertent gift of silent transit. Thus the following comic.
The interior of an office is seen. Row after row of cubic work spaces spread into the distance. A glass entrance door is seen at the far wall. A woman is seated at her desk in the foreground typing.
*1/2 half of the comic - Frames are horizontal format going all the way across the page.*
*Frame 1*
In the distance a series of words barely readable due to size is seen. The words "Thud thud thud thud" increase in size as they go from left to right.
*Frame 2*
The words are now more visible and 1/2 way to the foreground but this time increase in size from right to left.
*Frame 3*
The words are again going left to right and are above the row immediately behind the foreground. The tops of a pair of wolf ears can barely be seen mid frame. The woman typing without looking away from her screen says "Hi Jen." A response of "Hi Staci!" is seen.
*Second 1/2*
*Frame 1*
The same women is typing at her workstation. An outline of SF can be seen by the doorway in the distance.
*Frame 2*
The situation is the same except that now SF is nowhere to be seen.
*Frame 3*
*SF is now standing right behind the woman.*
SF: "Excuse me..."
Woman: *startled* "Aaaahhhhh!"

I occasionally have the very same problem. It's disconcerting.
