FunTranscript
00:00Thinking back, I believe all this started with the disappearance of my girlfriend.
00:04We had an amazing connection, an intensity of spirit and love that felt, at all times, uplifting and warm.
00:13We didn't need words, we simply existed in a state of bonded happiness.
00:20I thought that, maybe, that bliss had kept me oblivious to the terrible things going on around me.
00:27But, the more I learned, the more I realized that nothing bad had happened, before she disappeared.
00:36And I don't mean that she left, or that I was unable to find her.
00:40I was standing outside a movie theater with her and an acquaintance that we'd run into by chance.
00:45I said something, he made a funny remark, she laughed, and then she was gone.
00:51Nothing remained but a slight breeze from the air spilling into the place where she had been.
00:57The expression on my friend's face slowly dropped as he saw mine.
01:01This wasn't a joke, prank, or trick.
01:05She'd simply blinked out of existence.
01:08Standing there, we discussed what we'd seen in hushed tones.
01:12There were several disparate little groups of people walking in and out of the theater, but none had noticed.
01:20Superstitiously, he and I circled the building, then made a run through the inside.
01:25She was nowhere to be found.
01:27Eventually, we had no choice but to return to our homes and hope that we'd imagined the whole thing.
01:33But hours passed.
01:35Then a day.
01:37And then a week.
01:38Nobody had seen or heard from her.
01:40I called her parents, but never got an answer.
01:44I went around to their place, which I vaguely remembered from a holiday visit at some time in the past.
01:51Peering into the windows, I saw the dining room that I remembered.
01:55Replete with furniture and settings, but the rest of the house was completely empty.
02:01Had they moved out?
02:02If so, why was the dining room still furnished?
02:06I looked around for passerbys, but the quiet suburban streets sat desolate and lonely.
02:12I went by her work next.
02:14The grocery store and the bakery department in which she worked ran lively with bustling energy.
02:20I watched random strangers picking out fruit and vegetables in the produce section, oddly relieved to be surrounded by life
02:28again.
02:28The streets of our hometown had been feeling increasingly deserted,
02:32but I'd only truly recognized the creeping sense of isolation once it had been lifted.
02:38Here, then, everything was fine.
02:42Life was proceeding as normal, save for the absence of my girlfriend.
02:46As I'd feared, none of her co-workers had seen her.
02:50Beginning to grasp at straws, I headed for my work, hoping that maybe she'd called and asked for me.
02:56I arrived there, already uneasy.
02:59I recognized the building, certainly, but the area had the same vague aura of quiet emptiness that had surrounded her
03:07parents' house.
03:08With a dark pit tightening in my stomach, I peered in the front windows.
03:13The front desk sat within, along with all of the pictures on the walls I remembered.
03:18I shook my head and laughed quietly at myself.
03:20It must have been the weekend.
03:22Of course nobody was there.
03:24Pulling out my keycard, I accessed the side door.
03:27I was intent on checking my work phone messages, to see if she had called.
03:32But everything beyond the reception area was empty.
03:36Blank white walls stretched off into gloomy darkness.
03:40I couldn't understand it.
03:42I'd just met her here, the other day.
03:45Right here, by the front desk.
03:47Where had she gone?
03:49Where had my job gone?
03:51My cubicle?
03:52My co-workers?
03:53I tried to recall them, tried to retrace their faces and personalities.
03:58But I succeeded only in summoning hollow impressions and choppy experiences that felt incomplete and secondhand.
04:08Returning to the outside of the building, I stood in a daze, unsure what to do next.
04:13While I stood there, staring absently across the parking lot, I noticed a shimmer.
04:19The opposite building across the lot began blurring, wavering, and then it vanished.
04:24For some reason, I ran toward the phenomenon rather than away from it.
04:29I had to see something, touch something for myself.
04:32Coming to the space where it had been, I found a vast, cracked foundation, free of rubble and destruction.
04:40Save for several pipes now furiously spilling water from their jutting ends.
04:46You!
04:46I shouted at a suited businessman at the sidewalk's corner.
04:50Me?
04:51He asked, lowering his cell phone.
04:54Didn't you just...
04:55Come out of there?
04:56I asked, indicating the exposed foundation where a building had just been.
05:01Yup.
05:01Well, where'd it go?
05:03I asked.
05:04What do you mean?
05:05It's right there.
05:06He answered, the building.
05:08The building that was right here.
05:10He seemed confused.
05:12There's never been a building there.
05:14So, what, you work in an unfinished foundation?
05:17He nodded.
05:18That's my desk sitting over there.
05:20Indeed, a single wooden desk sat among the jagged bricks.
05:24Then why are the pipes shooting water all over the place?
05:27I shouted at him.
05:29He shrugged.
05:30Contractors cutting corners.
05:31Not believing the surreal conversation, I looked over at the building once more.
05:37Noticed his desk was gone and turned back.
05:40But the sidewalk sat empty before me.
05:43At that moment, the true weight of what had been happening began sinking in.
05:47I fought a rising panic and tried to think.
05:51I read stories about things like this, horror, science fiction.
05:56There's always a way out, if only one could think hard enough.
06:00But, in my panicked state, I couldn't recall the content of those tales.
06:05I did notice, however, that the businessman I had just talked to hadn't been cognizant of the changes.
06:11But my acquaintance and my girlfriend's disappearance had been.
06:14I had no idea where he lived, so I returned to the outside of the movie theater, hoping that he
06:20would notice strange things happening, and put two and two together the way I had.
06:24I felt a brief surge of hope as I sighted him, already sitting on the bench, waiting for me.
06:30My house is a prop.
06:33He greeted me sadly, his head in his hands.
06:37The people I know, if they haven't already vanished, seem only shadows of their former selves.
06:45It's like the memories and experiences are blinking right out of their heads, the same way streets and buildings are.
06:53Does anyone else notice?
06:55I asked him, sitting next to him on the bench, I chose not to comment on his overly loud despair
07:01and uneven tone.
07:03I talked to one guy who remained convinced nothing weird was going on, right up until he disappeared too.
07:09He shook his head, slowly.
07:11For a time, we sat in silence, just thinking.
07:15Across the movie theater parking lot, one of several trees shimmered, wavered, and vanished.
07:22He glanced over at me, and I nodded, confirming that I had seen it too.
07:27Another tree went a few minutes later, leaving a slight section of elevated highway visible.
07:33The highway blinked out of existence soon after.
07:36Then, the entire sky.
07:39Bright blue, white clouds, and burning sunlight, all began shimmering and wavering.
07:45He and I both straightened at the same time.
07:48It's symbolic.
07:50He realized aloud, mirroring my thought.
07:54Units of meaning disappearing one by one?
07:57How else could ideas, memories, even the goddamn sky?
08:02Hurricane winds blasted and buffeted us as the sky itself blinked out of existence,
08:08leaving only blank, barren blackness overhead.
08:12What could do this?
08:13He shouted, gripping the bench.
08:16I shook my head.
08:17I had an idea, based on what I had seen since she disappeared, but it was insane.
08:23Do you think?
08:24I yelled over the loud winds.
08:27What?
08:28We think, therefore, we are, right?
08:31I shouted.
08:33I know.
08:34I think.
08:35Do you?
08:36I think so.
08:38He yelled back.
08:39Then we must really exist.
08:42I told him, hanging on.
08:44That means there's hope.
08:46No more remained to be said.
08:49We clunked that bench for dear life as trees, cars, buildings.
08:54Even the parking lot and movie theater itself flung off into the void, shimmering, wavering,
09:00and vanishing as they went.
09:02Once the air ran out, we began suffocating, but thankfully.
09:07About fifteen seconds later, the concept of breathing went too.
09:11In muted, horrified relief, we sat like sentient corpses on an aging wooden bench on a small
09:18circle of sidewalk.
09:20All that remained of the universe.
09:22Come on.
09:24Please.
09:25I said without breath.
09:27Without words.
09:28We had some time left.
09:30It wasn't quite the end.
09:32She appeared with a few minutes to spare.
09:35In the exact spot that she'd vanished, my girlfriend blinked back into existence.
09:41Her arrival bringing a massive wave of restoration.
09:44A split-second sphere of ideation and creation brought everything we'd known back in a roaring
09:50moment.
09:51Running up to her through the dying breezes of renewal, I grabbed her by the shoulders.
09:56You're back!
09:57She smiled.
09:59I can't believe I got back.
10:02How long were you gone?
10:04I asked, trying not to sound, too panicked.
10:07It took me a few minutes to fall asleep again.
10:10She replied, excited.
10:12It was such a good dream.
10:13I wanted to come back more than anything in the world, but it's so rare to actually get
10:17back to the same dream.
10:19Even though I had suspected, based on the fact that everything in our surreal existence
10:24had been based purely on her experiences and knowledge, the confirmation still hit me
10:30somewhere deep.
10:31Even as my very soul joined my panic, I forced myself to deliver the words I'd practice while
10:37watching the world ebb.
10:38Listen to me.
10:40I don't know if this happens often, or if this is an insane and unique thing in the...in your
10:47universe, but...
10:48I turned and pointed at our acquaintance.
10:51He and I, we're alive.
10:53We're actually alive.
10:56When you woke up, your dreams started falling apart, but we remained.
11:00And we experienced every moment of it.
11:03But...
11:03I'm actually thinking.
11:04I'm actually here.
11:06And so is he.
11:07She looked back and forth between us, the impact of my words slowly sinking in.
11:12But how?
11:14I don't know.
11:15I told her, trying to get the emotion just right, so that she would truly believe.
11:20Maybe there are more wonders in life than we can possibly know.
11:24Maybe you dreamed us into existence.
11:26Maybe we were already out here, souls waiting to be born, but your dream universe caught us
11:32and pulled us in.
11:33But we are here, and I can't begin to describe the horror waiting for us after you're gone.
11:40Souls waiting to be born?
11:43She asked, dazed.
11:45That's not it.
11:46I frowned in Askins.
11:48She looked me in the eyes.
11:50You died.
11:52You both died.
11:53That's why I was so happy to dream about you, to be with you again.
11:57Oh.
11:58Despair settled across my shoulders, and I slumped.
12:02She looked away.
12:03This was my favorite memory.
12:05Just a nice day, before the accident.
12:08Our mutual acquaintance stood sadly.
12:11What does that mean for us?
12:13Being dead?
12:14What are we?
12:16Is there anything you can do?
12:18She said nothing for a long moment, before an idea seemed to occur to her.
12:23I just can't let go.
12:25She admitted aloud.
12:27But maybe that means we can all be together again.
12:30She looked at both of us in turn.
12:33Hold out.
12:33I'll be back.
12:35She blinked out of existence.
12:38We waited there for hours, a day, a week.
12:42I wondered at the difference in time between our reality and hers.
12:46She'd said it had taken a few minutes for her to fall asleep again, whatever she was doing.
12:51I hoped it would be quick, or else we wouldn't be there when she returned.
12:56We sat watching the world die for a second time, waiting in quiet hope and silent terror.
13:02I had the distinct fear that she would return to a similar dream, a universe of the mind that
13:08looked like ours, that she believed was ours, but which contained a version of the two of us that
13:15wasn't us.
13:17Just facades, just dream figments, faking life.
13:22We'd become merely slivers of ourselves, bare consciousness and fear, by the time she returned.
13:29In a flash, all creation blinked back into existence, somehow stronger this time, brighter.
13:35I won't wake up again, she said with a smile and a happy conviction.
13:41I made sure of that.
13:42I took her hand.
13:44What did you do?
13:45I took a ton of sleeping pills.
13:47We'll be together forever now, one way or another.
13:51My friend came up alongside us.
13:53You did that for us?
13:56She nodded excited.
13:58See, I told you, I said to him.
14:01You gotta live the role, be the role.
14:05Even when they're not here, that's the only way they'll believe you enough to do something
14:10drastic.
14:11They can usually sense our hollowness like a stain on their mind.
14:16The only way to avoid turning it into a nightmare is to become one with the dream.
14:21What are you talking about?
14:23She asked, confused.
14:25He grinned widely.
14:27I guess you were right.
14:29Go ahead, you won.
14:32I matched his grin with one of my own, only wider and hungrier.
14:38You're not them.
14:39She screamed, realizing her mistake too late.
14:43She pulled away, but I had her by the wrist and by the soul.
14:48Her weakened body wouldn't be able to protect her mind much longer.
14:53Let me go.
14:54It's far too late for that.
14:56I told her, licking my metaphorical lips in anticipation.
15:01The feast was as enjoyable as any other dreamer I'd eaten, but it was made all the sweeter
15:08by the chance to further employ my acting chops.
15:11Sitting up, I tested out her limbs one by one, and then spoke aloud, listening to the various
15:18sounds of her voice.
15:20It would be a challenge convincing others of her purely physical species that I was one
15:25of them, but I was more than up for it.
15:28For the first time in eons, I was actually excited.
15:34Excitement had almost become an unfamiliar sensation, but it was certainly warranted, as this was certain
15:41to be the role of a lifetime.
15:44Specifically, her lifetime.
15:48I hope you guys enjoyed tonight's story.
15:52I want to thank Creepy Kavatapi for playing the girlfriend, Natinator for playing the friend,
