#TimeTravelingGhost Part 53: EP 5: Jurassic Era — Rabbits

#Wss366 #MastoPrompt #TimeTravelAuthors 11/29
#ScribesAndMakers 11.29 — Cantankerous?

It was interesting how my view of Emily had changed. At first, I had found her humorless and grouchy, almost #cantankerous. She was definitely serious, but she had a humorous side and was perfectly capable of engaging in verbal sparring.

She was a bit sadistic too. I could tell by the way her lips turned up in a smile as I pushed my way through the thick forest growth, and by her uproarious laughter when a #pillbox-shaped bug as big as my fist caused me to shriek in surprise.

We eventually reached the “trail,” a muddy, trampled swath of land that ambled through the forest. Fallen trees littered the path, and huge footprints lurked in the dense ferns, threatening to break the legs of the unwary. The expedition clothes I had manifested soon turned into leather chaps and a jacket. Despite the heat, it was better than being #rent by the long dagger-like thorns that hid amid the foliage.

My attempts to transform my clothes into futuristic lightweight armor were a flop. There were clearly limits to my power. As an experiment, I tried to manifest money and then a gun. Again, the experiments failed. I had better luck with manifesting a machete.

My woes weren't limited to the heat and flora. Clouds of gnats followed me. A safari hat with mosquito netting helped, but hindered my movement through the brush. The machete and short stints of immateriality were helpful, but tiring. Indiana Jones, I wasn’t.

Little left of the raven’s hair pecked to salt-and-pepper now. Did he walk with a limp or talk with a lisp? I wasn’t sure which. He couldn't hold my gaze, and he seemed to cover the edge of his mouth whenever he spoke to hide where teeth might now be missing. He’s smaller than I remember him being, and couldn’t hide the shakes through our short game of chess to save his life, blaming his loss on not enough coffee. As I came to expect long ago, The Priest had come unto him, too. Uncertain of the flashbacks still, what he does remember was prompted through Facebook messages with Bruce Coughlin.
We went to Doyle's for dinner. Yeah, no, I told him, just have a drink, finding his having the shakes that unsettling to me. My surrogate older sibling, my childhood hero, now a side-slung inverse of that former being. He spoke with no gall at all in saying I’m blessed to have my ‘Johnny Cash story’ behind me. That paused me.
I’d sat silently in the corner, masking my hurt, not wanting to be a killjoy. I forget what the final impetus had been to leave that night, whether it was last call or no reason at all, save that Johnny Cash was dead. I'd swiped one of my drinking buddy's 20 mg Ritalins earlier while he had gone to the bathroom, rather than a 10 mg one which is what he’d come to give me if I’d beg. Blurry from there on out. Found my bong on its side the following morning, a dark, reeking spot of bong-water on the carpet by my empty #pillbox. I recalled Sarah having come downstairs and begging us to keep it quiet. She'd never had to do that before, and I felt the fucking heel for it.
I gave him what advice I could, basically that one must become hard and watch out for themselves, damn everyone's enabling and holding him to playing some persona.
