PART 19
'Much time for what?' Joyce asked the squirrel. She looked around, no one else seemed to be paying this squirrel any attention. Could it be that only she could see a purple squirrel on an airplane?
'I am your spirit squirrel,' it continued, 'Tasked with keeping you up to date with happenings in the fantastical realm, the realm of creativity and innovation, fantasy and myth. You have been experiencing fantasmagoria, a condition, you may have noticed, that can cause you to jump back and forth between different possible realities in a moderately coherent way.'
'What?'
'I can prove it', said the squirrel, 'Notice the number of times that you have gone back and forth between first and third person on this plane flight alone! Was your ex-lover pilot a terrorist or just jealous of the married italian? This whole episode is ripe with Fantasmagoria! And now there is not much time!
'Not much time for wha....???' Joyce blurted out, loosing patience, as the distinct lines of the inner cabin began to swirl, Joyce began to wonder just what the heck was in all that coffee she drank before the flight.
Are you trying to cheat us or hold us in suspense? 😮 😃
Oh gosh I got rushed off and then fell asleep! Sorry about this, its coming out now!
Edit: DONE!
Ha ha ha, awesome! You probably needed a nap to be able to come up with "Fantasmagoria!"
Hahahaahah great word too.
