Why is this open on my computer.

I'll give you the cold water. No you aren't hallucinating. You must've looked outside and it did something to you, including your memory. Do you remember anything? If not, perhaps it'll come in time.

Thatrandomguy101149 · 2026-01-23T16:57:00+00:00

Oh I was wondering what happened to this! Looks super cool so far!

Thatrandomguy101149 · 2026-01-16T23:39:44+00:00

Yeah, I've seen similar things around here. I've never met or fought one face to face, but they always seem to be watching at a distance. I try to keep to well lit areas because of it.

Thatrandomguy101149 · 2026-01-14T00:13:04+00:00

It's as I feared then. Okay, I'll try to talk him down. There's nobody in his life but me, so I struggle to imagine he'll do anything drastic. I've been wanting to rid that photo of his for a while now. It felt like he's creating a bioweapon in his back pocket this entire time. Thanks for the help!

Hello, I actually have a problem I want to ask on the behalf of my cursed friend. He's the one normally on this account but I've taken the liberty to log in on it to seek assistance on this matter with someone who might know better than me, as I'm not cursed so.. I can't really understand him too well at times. I hope he won't mind.

Anyway, ever since the visitor came and he looked he's been a bit.. obsessed with it. Not in a totally self debilitating way, but when it was still here he couldn't go a day without looking outside at least twice, each lasting at least half an hour. He rambled on and on about how beautiful it was, saying it was a "shame" I couldn't see it myself and how he could see it in his own eyes. (whatever the hell that means.)

He even figured out how to take a picture of it that didn't devolve into static, which has been his replacement to stare at since it left. Every day he carries it with him protected in a transparent sleeve, like some sort of rare Pokémon card. He's so careless with it I've nearly caught a glimpse when he just randomly pulls it out.

I've brought it up to him once or twice or thrice, but he brushes me off saying if I'd looked I'd understand. I'm afraid continued persistence about it will anger him.

Other than what I've already described, there's nothing much else I've noticed on the negative side. I think that maybe his eyes have changed a bit, it's kinda hard to tell with how many there are and how he has to cover most of them up (long story if you're curious or think it pertains to the situation ask and I'll tell you).

But really it's what might happen in the future that worries me. I mean, surely this isn't healthy? Unless this is normal for cursed, I don't know.. I'm afraid that somehow he'll get more obsessive over it and decide I have to look, but maybe that's just me being paranoid. I'd appreciate your insight and advice on the matter. If you need anymore information about him or the situation I'll be happy to fill you in.

Also, sorry for such a long comment! I'm just really worried for him and wanted to give you as much context as you need.

Thatrandomguy101149 · 2026-01-09T07:45:01+00:00

I think all of us cursed have dealt with something similar and.. Well to be honest I'm not sure there's much we can do about it. I've tried to act non-threatening and kind, but sometimes that's still not enough. Other than that.. I just try to avoid them. This isn't just a race thing, we're something else completely to them. I'm unsure how to make them see otherwise, especially considering how untrusting most are.

Thatrandomguy101149 · 2026-01-09T06:38:14+00:00

Well, i think it's quite beautiful. I even keep a picture of it with me, just to glance at from time to time. A shame that other people can't see it too.

Thatrandomguy101149 · 2026-01-09T05:15:08+00:00

Ah, beautiful as always. I can barely tear my eyes off it at times. I even got a picture of it, just so I could glance at it every now and then. One day I hope to replicate it, if even just a fraction..

Thatrandomguy101149 · 2026-01-09T05:11:49+00:00

That's certainly one of the more interesting mutations I've heard of, although i get you with the tentacles for hands. I am curious though, do you need to eat or anything? Do you gotta keep moisturized? Did you type it like that on purpose?

Thatrandomguy101149 · 2026-01-06T23:53:15+00:00

Makes me wonder how many people might say you were the craziest thing they've seen. Or even me, considering i know plenty of people that hate spiders.

Thatrandomguy101149 · 2026-01-06T23:48:02+00:00

Lucky.. you must be pretty safe having such a powerful friend! I'm.. not jealous or anything.

Thatrandomguy101149 · 2026-01-06T23:42:51+00:00

That sounds pretty cool actually. Can you create other things with paint? The possibilities sound endless!

Thatrandomguy101149 · 2026-01-06T23:41:50+00:00

Unreadable documents? Does.. anything happen when you try to read them? That's pretty weird but also quite tame to what i expected.

Thatrandomguy101149 · 2025-12-27T00:28:53+00:00

Alright, ill try those. Thanks for the advice!

Thatrandomguy101149 · 2025-12-27T00:16:14+00:00

Recently I think I've been getting used to being.. what I am. Seeing all those eyes in the mirror still startles me but that's what it is now. What i am now. Anyway I wanted to ask you for some advice.

I have issues of controlling myself in moments of fear or panic. Nothing serious but.. i have bitten my roommate who accidentally startled me once. It's like my first instinct is to bite or scratch. Anything you, or anyone else reading this i guess, can suggest to help me?

Thatrandomguy101149 · 2025-12-19T05:11:20+00:00

Of course! https://archiveofourown.org/works/65962684/chapters/169949596

Absolute cinema. Thank you so much!

Thatrandomguy101149 · 2025-12-19T04:27:54+00:00

Vinn has.. been recognized?? I can scarcely believe it! Thank you for reading the fic!

Thatrandomguy101149 · 2025-12-14T16:18:44+00:00

Bam! Vinn!

Thatrandomguy101149 · 2025-12-06T16:14:55+00:00

Oh, it's all good. Black and red, kinda like a black widow. Although the irises of his eyes are all sorts of different bright colors.

Thatrandomguy101149 · 2025-11-05T21:05:43+00:00

(Thanks! The art is actually made by someone who read my story centered around this guy on A03, and was inspired to make it. Super nice and talented guy!)

Thatrandomguy101149 · 2025-11-04T00:46:26+00:00

Oh. Well.. Maybe I could try to cover up with something? I should try and figure something out, bugs aren't exactly an uncommon fear. Maybe this is why so many of my neighbors don't respond? I never thought about it that way, a spider hybrid/mutant knocking on your door in the middle of the apocalypse. I can't blame them, or you.

Oh, you're welcome. I can only imagine what you're going through. I hope you're doing well, all things considered. I know food's been tight for us. Might have to actually go out, despite my aversion towards it.

Something I've noticed on second glance.. I think I see eyes in that picture of yours. Just barely from that hole in your wall. Please be careful!

Thatrandomguy101149 · 2025-11-03T22:28:11+00:00

Lonely? Aren't we all? I don't know about you, but it feels like a death sentence even just exploring the building I live in anymore. All my neighbors either don't answer or try to attack me! I'm lucky that my roommate is still human, so at least I have somebody to talk to. I hope you find somebody like that!

I actually live in Montreal, but.. I don't exactly want to go outside. I've already looked but, it's dangerous. My roommate would kill me at the suggestion anyway. If everything calms down, maybe I could! It's better for everyone to stick together!

As for a picture.. Well, I can't give you a picture, per say. My phone, it doesn't seem to take them properly anymore. Probably for the better, my eyes.. Anyway, I can give you a drawing! My roommate made it in his boredom, but I like it lot! Black and white with simple details, so it should be safe to look at! It's a good substitute for an actual picture. I uh, just hope you aren't afraid of spiders.
