Tag: made the thing

Have y’all just wanted to disappear? Not like dying but fading into the shadows and just floating along as a nameless person no one really knows much about, not famous in any way, just there, watching. And as time goes on you end up where crimes are going on by accident and people start calling you ‘the watcher’, and you slowly become a cryptid, or a myth. A story that is told to children when they’re young that they shouldn’t do bad things or ‘the watcher’ will show up and report it to the world or to some being that will toss more obstacles their way. And you, ironically, become a famous myth, told until the story of ‘the watcher’ is forgotten and returns to the shadows once more.
