I'm on edge with the new supply system.
On one hand, I do like how fleshed out it has become. Supply coming from hubs and ports, railroads and sea access connecting those nodes to the capital and what not.
On the other, I hate how supply from a hub or port is spread out into tiles/provinces where it's not needed. For example, level 1 railway or river access gives you 15 supply, but that supply is spread out 4 tiles wide (if possible). Without trucks or modifiers this supply is concentrated in the center. Motorizations brings this supply further out.
My problem is that hubs and ports shouldn't be sending supply to tiles/provinces that do not need it. Meaning there is a lot of wasted supply just spread out for no reason. Imagine your troops going hungry because the logistics department is sending food and water to a forest and dropping it off to rot and spoil.
I don't want to hate this new system. With hubs being 20000 IC, I played the game like the developers wanted me to. Build up railway and increase motorization. That didn't do much though. Even with building up railway to increase the supply cap from the hub the supply still spread out in provinces with no troops and therefore no use. Trucks only try to level the supply out further from the center - not increase it. Even with +100% infrastructure it didn't do much.
What I don't understand is the supply in your capital. I could build 400 factories and have the capital supply say 170 supply cap but that doesn't really show in the tiles.
What I've come to understand is that the reason Germany looks so green and Russia so blue is because the number of supply hubs that overlap each other's range. You can go into Germany and find several sources of supply. So no wonder one province gets 10 supply because there's 4-5 hubs bringing supply there. In Russia, you may be lucky to get two.
But if this is the case and the only real beneficial way to increase supply is with building more hubs or ports, why did Paradox make it a point to make hubs so expensive? I've even heard some of the devs wanted there to be no supply hubs to be buildable.
I've seen some argue that ports are a problem because you can build so many of them for less than a hub and get a lot of supply. But why punish the player for fixing their supply issue? Isn't that the point of this new game mechanic? To flesh out the supply to troops and make it more interesting and fun?
Armies will grow bigger. More supply will be needed. More hubs and railroads will need to be built. I don't understand why a front needs to stall for 3-4 months for a supply hub.
TL;DR

1. I think supply in provinces without troops to consume it is wasteful making improving railways and motorization kind of fruitless effort. Meaning supply hubs and ports are the only real game changers. Perhaps supply hubs with their range provide supply as a State supply stat so no supply is wasted. Kind of like population size and air transports provide state-based supply but aren't distributed per tile but go straight to the troops that need it. Depending on where the tiles are is where each State gets supply from a hub.
2. I do like how supply is very much relevant more so than previous versions of the game, but right now it seems like Paradox wants it to be a forever issue in the sense that you can't really fix your supply situation without hubs and ports and we'll make hubs 20000 IC so it's much harder.

EDIT: Gentle reminder regarding R3 😠

Apologies for the long post, there will be a tl;dr at the bottom. A little bit of backstory: my cat is a 12 year old Norwegian forest cat and we have had him since 2011, when he was just a kitten. We had a dog at the time who passed last August. My mom and stepdad adopted a new dog, a 12 year old chihuahua, in October. I was away at college so I don't know how they introduced them, but I know the cat was very territorial at first and would try to attack the dog. Now they tolerate each other. They're not best friends, but they can coexist in peace.
Yesterday, I found out they were adopting another dog, a 6 year old mini pin. He's lighter than my old dog but a bit taller, and slightly larger than my cat. I was at work when they brought him home today. On my way home, I found out that they introduced the new dog to my cat just by plopping them both in the same room. According to my family, it seemed fine at first; they were touching noses and seemed relaxed around each other until my cat started growling under his breath and ran upstairs and hid.
I got home and after meeting the new dog, I found my cat hiding deep in a closet upstairs. I brought him downstairs into my side of the house (I live in an attached in-law style apartment). You have to cross the living room and kitchen to get from the upstairs to my side, and he was terrified when I brought him down the stairs. He burrowed his head into my armpit, something he has never done before while carrying him. He was scratching me as I brought him over, also something he has never done before. He only ever scratches/claws at you if he's scared or really hungry. He wasn't like this with the dog we got in October (I think because that dog is a chihuahua and much smaller than my cat).
I told my mom to wait and let me introduce them as I was afraid something like this would occur, but I digress. I brought over some cat food, water, and a litter box to my side of the house for a safe space for the cat. The new dog will not be allowed on this side of the house for the time being.
I'm not really sure where to go from here. I wanted to introduce them slowly, not in a feast or famine style. The somewhat good news is the dog was simply curious about the cat; he was not aggressive at all. He wanted to play, but obviously cats are not the same as dogs and my cat doesn't understand that. I'm afraid this traumatized the cat. He was hiding under a table on my side of the house, again something he never does. He's calmed down at the time of writing this, but is it even possible to re-introduce them in a proper fashion? I'm at a loss. I found this comment in a previous Reddit thread that I think is useful. Any advice is greatly appreciated.
TL;DR: Parents brought home a new 6 year old dog, introduced them to my 12 year old cat by plopping them in the same room, cat is now terrified to go over to the main area of the house and I don't know what to do in this situation.

I've been having a lot of issues with the superb survivors mod despite how fun it is, and these issues sometimes lead to a really good long-lasting run ending abruptly. Just yesterday I lost a really good game where I had a survivor group of 4 including myself, and we were living in a warehouse full of farming supplies out in the forest. I heard gunshots right outside and so I stepped outside with my pistol ready (a revolver with 5/6 rounds in it) and looked around. Just as I spotted the guy firing, he shot and killed one of my men, and hit me in the leg. I managed to make it behind a box truck where I crouched and started patching myself up, however, as I was patching myself up I watched 4 more "Lodged Bullet" indicators appear, with no gunshoot sound or anything. and so I popped out of cover, shot the hostile 5 times (all 5 shots landed and she had no armor) and then got killed, and while I was dead another survivor of mine stabbed her 6 times with a spear (of which he's level 4 with) before she killed him with the soundless pistol as well. So not only do survivor guns almost never actually make noise, but they have twice as much accuracy as the veteran career, and take 10 bullets to kill. Is there any mod/addon that fixes these things? They're completely gamebreaking.
​
​
TL;DR : Superb Survivors have way too much health and are way too accurate with firearms. Leading to an unassuming young woman in a dress to actually be a bulletproof tank with aiming level 10.

Thanks in advance for any advice and help!

Long read, with paragraphs. However, please read. Please help figure this out.
Together for 18 yrs, married for almost 16 yrs. In the last few years, we have had a fair share of communication breakdowns. I have written about it and gotten great feedback. I do notice it has been a pattern of what occurs when I am talking about my feelings and hopes and instead of hearing me, he interrupt, his tone of voice changes and then he flips it into something unattractive.
Things that have helped: therapy and learning many tools. Learning The 5 Love Languages. Date night. However, we don't always apply or do them all the time. It's like we forget to use them, or do them or have them on the back burner. Going to our church-marriage group has helped, I believe. Me making boundaries.
Things that haven't helped: being called a bitch, his tone of voice and mine, his denial. Him keeping score and him saying things out of anger. Him threatening to leave for a hotel because I was asking questions to process so I could let it go. I let the issues go on before calling a break( learned in therapy), and me wanting to figure it all out at one time.
Here's an example from a few hours ago:
We have been enjoying the day together. I ran up to the market while he was mowing the lawn and when I got home, we had lunch. After lunch, we headed back outside to pick up twigs and down wood, trying to get a burn pile together. He had not been quiet earlier. Not did he say he wanted to relax? He said no. Wants to get it down and then he will. Because he was quiet, I asked, what's up? Did something happen when I was at the market? I said it feels like you're avoiding me, he said in a tone of voice he was treading lightly. I said it feels like you are ignoring me. (Treading lightly is a tool learned in therapy that he applies overly before his period starts). However, not all pms are the same. Most every weekend, I look forward to spending quality time with him and our family out in the yard. It doesn't feel like enough quality time between us, our work and the other living things we juggle and family time.
I was in the same area that my SO was. He knew I was there. However, maybe I didn't realize I was that close. He tosses a large branch and the branch swipes my face. Gratefully no cuts. I said ouch. It was as if SO was not mindful of me saying ouch or being that close. I expected him to say something, and I started crying, asking him for some compassion in a normal tone. So instead of asking if I was okay, he raised his voice and started talking about things unrelated to what I had just said. It appears he has resentments because it had nothing to do with the present moment conversation, and when I have resentments, I do the same thing. However, he said he doesn't.
At this moment, he's going on a tangent and sounds angry. I asked him why he was bringing other things into this conversation. I wondered if he had anything he needed to talk about and he said no.
Before long, he gets mean, telling me I am a bitch every PMS and that I am in denial about it or not honest with myself and or delusional because I do not own it and I always deny it. I ask him to stop projecting his stuff onto me.
He says I am constantly correcting him and criticizing him. I told him I was not the one being mean and saying hurtful things and please stop. I talked about my feelings and hopes about the branch, and then you snapped with your stuff. How is that being a bitch?? He did apologize about that one. I asked questions to clarify how my brain works so that I could understand his point of view. It's as if he thinks these are correcting and destructive criticism. I don't know why he takes what I have to say like it's a personal attack instead of objectively.
No, denial here about anything. I am fully aware of who I am, what I do and don’t, know my body works and how I can get before my period. At this point, I was in a good mood. However, when his tone of voice changed, so did mine, like he was inviting me to be at his level. At this point, I am not a happy camper. So he escalates a little more by threatening to leave for the night if I won't stop talking. So I stopped talking so he doesn't go.
I am taking a break from it. I am trying to make sense of it. tl;dr: Is there something more going on with him?? I have asked him several times, and he says no. Is he in denial? He does have depression and low self-esteem and has a habit of taking constructive criticism, not objectively and reacting emotionally. I am not sure what to do at this point. I need help figuring this out because things don't add up. This is our third like this year. It's overwhelming and confusing.
Be kind in helping, please. I already feel down, yet open to constructive feedback.

Now this is partially me coping about the Master Sword being so easily wrecked by a Triforce-less Ganondorf, but hear me out.
​
The Master Sword, during the time of BotW/TotK, has a number of faults not present in earlier entries of the series. During a fight with Guardians, the sword is damaged so seriously that it has to rest for a whopping one hundred years to recuperate. Not only that, but a further set of trials are required to increase the power of the blade. It is unable to seal Calamity Ganon, requiring Zelda's sage abilities -- something usually only required when Ganon holds a piece of the Triforce. And most notably, in the opening scene of TotK, mere gloom blasts are enough to completely shatter the legendary sword, rendering it useless until it was given an eons-long nap in the Light Dragon's head.
​
There's also the matter of the Master Sword needing to recharge within the gameplay of BotW/TotK. However, do you recall a certain memory in BotW? The one where there are 4-6 deceased Silver Lynels amongst a horde of other slain monsters, all killed by Link with minimal injury? The only weapon Link is shown to have in memories is the Master Sword (although there might be one where he uses a generic metal sword prior to getting the Blade of Evil's Bane), and there's never any mention of it needing to recharge. I think it's a safe conclusion to draw that the Master Sword running out of energy is more or less a gameplay mechanic.
​
So where does this leave us? Generally speaking, even assuming the recharge thing is a gameplay mechanic, the showings of the Master Sword in the last two games of the series have been a bit weaker than in previous games in the franchise, with the sword being damaged and even straight up broken with relative ease. This is presumably the same blade that caught thunderbolts from Demise, slew an immortal King of Evil holding the Triforce of Power, and depending on the timeline, killed Ganon countless times. Yet a skeletal Ganondorf, not even in his Demon King form, not even holding a Triforce piece, is able to obliterate it with two gloom blasts. That doesn't particularly make sense.
​
Here's what I propose. The key to the Master Sword's strength in previous games is its most iconic resting place, a location of sacred power so strong that it's directly connected to the Sacred Realm -- the Temple of Time. Let us walk through the Master Sword's various appearances, chronologically.
​
The Blade of Evil's Bane as depicted in Skyward Sword is arguably the most powerful one. Starting as the Goddess Sword, you gradually power it up throughout the course of the story, from the Goddess Longsword, to the Goddess White Sword, to the Master Sword, and eventually the True Master Sword. This is accomplished through a series of Sacred Flames, described as "the breath of life itself", personally created by the Golden Goddesses. The final touch to the legendary blade is a blessing from Zelda, who in Skyward Sword is the closest thing to Hylia herself. There's a common misconception that every Zelda is Hylia Reborn. This is false. They carry the Blood of the Goddess, but only Skyward Sword Zelda is a direct reincarnation of Hylia. She even has Hylia's memories. Skyward Sword's Master Sword is freshly created, bathed in 3 flames made directly by the Golden Goddesses and blessed by the equivalent of Hylia herself. It is used to permanently seal Demise, a demon of such power that the main villain of the series, Ganondorf, is a mere reflection of his hatred. Also, it can catch thunderbolts, which is fucking awesome. After this, the blade is put to rest in the Temple of Time, where it remains for millennia.
​
Ocarina of Time is the Master Sword's next (and undoubtedly most iconic) appearance, where it, as it was placed in Skyward Sword, is held in the Temple of Time. It serves as a key directly to the Sacred Realm, a place of such holy magic that the Triforce itself is contained there. Such is the Master Sword's power that, after sealing Link for an entire seven years, it's able to seal the King of Evil and his Triforce of Power with the help of the Seven Sages, besting him in single combat not once, but twice. This is the same Ganondorf who collapsed an entire castle while exhausted.
​
There are a lot more appearances after this, so I'll be brief.

• Twilight Princess: The sword has no notable weaknesses. It's left in the Temple of Time once more, which still seems to possess some degree of sacred power as well as the ability to travel in time.
• Wind Waker: The sword has been weakened to the point where the blessings of two sages are required in order to keep its sacred power intact. The Temple of Time is presumably gone and it is now stored in Hyrule Castle. Has also been using its power to seal Ganon's magic for a long time.

Now here's where things get interesting. In both A Link to the Past and A Link Between Worlds, the sword has one key quality; it's stored not in the Temple of Time, but rather a pedestal in the Lost Woods. The Pendants of Virtue are required to lift it in both games to prove Link's worth as the hero, allowing him to pluck the Legendary Master Sword. ALTTP is also one of the only games where the Master Sword can not slay Ganon; the Silver Arrows are required for the job. What could this possibly mean? As most of you know, ALTTP and ALBW are the only games where you can tangibly upgrade the Master Sword in such a way that even its appearance is changed. The methods of upgrading it are a bit mundane, too -- a few Dwarven swordsmiths can as much as quadruple the strength of the Blade of Evil's Bane? A sword so old it has existed nearly as long as time itself? It's a little less silly in ALBW given you need a special ore, but the point remains.
​
Is the Master Sword from ALTTP/ALBW stronger than the sword immediately after being bathed in three flames from Din, Farore, and Nayru, before being blessed by the literal light of a Goddess? I mean, possibly, this series has had sillier plot points, but I don't think that's the case.
​
I think the Master Sword has lost some degree of power by the time of ALTTP/ALBW, and the upgrades we see in those games don't make it four times stronger than SS/OoT's Master Sword, but rather restore some of its previous power. They aren't permanent, either. They're superficial upgrades, healed away when the Master Sword is put back into its pedestal. The Master Sword has lost so much power that it's malleable by the hammer of a swordsmith or magic from a mere Great Fairy.
​
So how does this translate into BotW/TotK? If you'll remember, a major plot point is that the Master Sword is able to gain power when bathed in sacred light. The Deku Tree says as much to Zelda. A steady stream of sacred light is what's able to restore the Master Sword's luster, bring it back to its status as the legendary sword it's supposed to be. I believe that the reason for the Master Sword's apparent decrease in power throughout the Downfall Timeline as well as the need for the constant blessing of Sages in the Adult Timeline is one thing; the lack of the Temple of Time. To put it bluntly, there is no resting place even remotely as sacred as that of the Temple of Time. Skyward Sword, Ocarina of Time, and Twilight Princess, games where the Master Sword has no known faults and never has to be upgraded or repaired, are ones where it has been in the Temple of Time for millennia. The Temple's pedestal is connected directly to the Sacred Realm, as well as possessing the ability for extremely potent time travel.
​
This isn't to say that the pedestal found within the woods doesn't have magic properties, but I wouldn't call it exactly "sacred". In Creating a Champion, the following is stated:

"The Master Sword has averted many calamities alongside the hero, and the pedestal that restores the sword from the damage it incurs in those battles is located in Korok Forest, which brims with the energy of the land."

There's specific wording here. The Master Sword, rather than drawing upon sacred power (like that found in the Temple of Time or the energy from the Light Dragon), draws upon the energy of the land in order to heal. Certainly potent, but it's not sacred power. Not only would this explain the sword being weaker in BotW/TotK (and possibly even in ALTTP/ALBW), it would also explain the need for two sages to pray to it in Wind Waker. Not only is it in neither a sacred location nor one full of life, the Master Sword is in a world where the vast majority of life in Hyrule was snuffed out by both Ganon and a terrible flood. There is far less energy "of the land" to gather -- which is especially problematic given that the Master Sword is also sealing Ganondorf's minions and his magic.
​
TL;DR: The Master Sword loses power when not in a sacred pedestal like the one found in the Temple of Time. In the pedestals of the forest (ALttP/ALBW/BotW/TotK), it draws upon the "power of the land" to heal itself, resulting in an overall weakened blade. The upgrades in ALTTP/ALBW do not make the sword four times stronger than SS/OoT/TP's Master Sword, but are superficial power increases as a result of the sword losing so much power that it has become malleable enough to have its appearance changed by mere swordsmiths and Great Fairies. It requires the prayers of Sages in Wind Waker because it both lacks a sacred pedestal and there is little life of the land to draw energy from. And finally, it is able to be shattered in TotK due to thousands upon thousands of years without being bathed in sacred energy.

Payback

Before The Seven hit the scene as the most popular superhero group in the world, there was Payback. The group consisted of Soldier Boy, Crimson Countess, Gunpowder, Black Noir, Mindstorm, Swatto, and the TNT Twins.
Due to Soldier Boy’s constant abuse, several Payback members collaborated with Stan Edgar to have Soldier Boy handed over to the Russians in 1984. They then went their separate ways and lived their own lives, that is until Soldier Boy’s return in 2021 resulted in him hunting the rest of Payback down.
Legend

• [AT] = Amazon Trivia. While watching The Boys on Amazon Prime, you can pause the episode to see official trivia bits provided by the show itself. A few of these contain relevant lore for this RT.
• [BN Flashback] = Black Noir flashback. S3E7 showcases some of Payback’s past in the form of Black Noir’s… unique flashbacks. For very obvious reasons these flashbacks aren’t 1:1 accurate but we can at least use them to say who fought who, which character won a fight, etc.

Soldier Boy

Soldier Boy was the leader of Payback and considered to be the greatest supe of them all before Homelander’s debut. Granted with super strength and durability, Soldier Boy would regularly misuse his powers both on civilians and his own teammates. His abuse led to the rest of Payback collaborating with Russia to have Soldier Boy taken into their custody. In Russia, Soldier Boy was experimented on for decades until he was accidentally released by The Boys. Now equipped with a new radiation beam power, Soldier Boy hunts down the rest of his former team members.

Highlighted Feats

• Soldier Boy is strong enough to hit Homelander.
• He is bulletproof and is just very durable in general.
• Grabs Kimiko without looking. For reference, Kimiko is fast enough to dodge bullets.
• Can fire radiation beams from his chest which are capable of destroying buildings.

Black Noir

A man with little words, Black Noir is an assassin who suffers from mental trauma due to the beating he got from Soldier Boy during the Nicaragua mission. He would later become one of the founding members of The Seven before being killed by Homelander.

Highlighted Feats

• Throws Starlight through a concrete pillar
• Receives only some slight burns from a big explosion that destroys a room, and is still standing in place.
• Backflips to avoid Homelander’s beams.
• [Weakness] Has a bad allergy to tree nuts, also he is later killed after Homelander disembowels him by surprise.

Crimson Countess

Crimson Countess was one of the leading figures of Payback as well as Soldier Boy’s supposed lover. In reality however, she hated him more than anything due to his abuse of the group. After Payback dissolved, she found a career in singing which ironically enough included being forced to sing memorial songs in honor of Soldier Boy’s presumed death.
Also she cares deeply about chimps.

Physicals

• [BN Flashback] While Soldier Boy is distracted by Mindstorm's brain scrambling, jumps onto his back and manages to put a gas mask over his face.
• Kicks a wall to shove Frenchie and Kimiko back, who were both restraining her arms. For reference, Kimiko has superhuman strength.
• [Limit] Dies after taking a point blank hit from Soldier Boy’s radiation beam.

Fireballs

Crimson Countess’ main ability is producing fireballs by putting both of her hands together.

• Shoots two fireballs at once to kill two people fleeing the area.
• Shoots out a small fireball that lights up a dark theater.
• While trying to kill Kimiko and Frenchie, shoots a fireball that makes an unfortunate bystander wearing a Homelander costume explode into pieces.

Gunpowder

Gunpowder is a major gun fanatic who is extremely skilled when it comes to getting a good shot.

Physicals

• [BN Flashback] Regularly took beatings from Soldier Boy.
• Takes a headbutt and a few punches from V24 Butcher.
• Gets punched by V24 Butcher which sends him flying towards a car, then takes some more punches to the face.
• [Limit] After telling Butcher what he knows about Soldier Boy, dies after an additional barrage of punches from V24 Butcher and having his face sliced in half via Butcher’s eye lasers.

Marksmanship

• Shoots Butcher’s leg by shooting a nearby pillar so that the bullet can ricochet off of it.
• By looking at a mirror to get a view of where Butcher is, shoots a bullet that ricochets off a pipe, then flies through two car windows, then ricochets off of a concrete pillar so that it can scrape Butcher's cheek.

Mindstorm

Mindstorm has various mind-related powers such as mind reading and hypnosis. He also has bipolar disorder which has led to him being forced to hear people’s thoughts around him to the point where he became a recluse in a forest.

Physicals

• [BN Flashback] Punches Soldier Boy in the face and kicks him down for a little bit along with the rest of Payback. For reference Soldier Boy is bulletproof.
• Gets hit in the eye with a knife which he quickly pulls out, then gets slammed to the ground by Soldier Boy’s shield.
• [Limit] Dies after Soldier Boy pounds his face in with his shield (though was somehow still conscious after that first hit).

Mind abilities

Mindstorm possesses several abilities that involve manipulating people’s minds.
Mind reading
Mindstorm can read people’s minds. In the past he could do this whenever he wanted, however the bipolar disorder he developed resulted in him being forced to read nearby minds against his will.

• [AT] The forced mindreading was so bad that at one point he had to walk into a desert to get away from reading people’s thoughts.
• Knows that Butcher (who is knocked out and has never properly interacted with Mindstorm) is a piece of shit by looking into his head.

Hypnosis
By looking into someone’s eyes, Mindstorm can put people into a sleeping hypnosis where they are forced to go through horrible nightmares. The only way for the victim to wake up is for Mindstorm to undo the ability himself; if he refuses to do so or is killed while the victim is still asleep, the victim will have no way of waking up and will eventually die.

• [AT] Put 16 drug cartel members who were trying to kill him into a coma, where they eventually died of terminal dehydration whilst having horrible nightmares.
• Puts Butcher to sleep by briefly looking into his eyes. From there, Butcher is knocked out and has nightmares involving his childhood. The hypnosis is undone once Hughie finds Mindstorm and brings him back to Butcher to undo it.

Mind control

• [AT] Regularly made people do wacky things via hypnosis as part of a show in Vegas. One example included making a man think that he was a bull to the point where he ran through a window with a red rug on display.
• Brainwashes a priest and a nun to ambush Soldier Boy and Hughie.

Other

• [BN Flashback] Uses his mind powers to “scramble [Soldier Boy’s] brains”, though unlike with his hypnosis he still has to concentrate on using it while Soldier Boy has a gas mask put on him. Unlike with the regular hypnosis, Soldier Boy is not put into an infinite nightmare from this technique. Most likely a sign of Soldier Boy having mind resistance.
• Set up a C4 trap in the woods that Soldier Boy didn’t notice so that he could ambush the group.

TNT Twins

The TNT Twins are known for being able to fire a burst of energy provided that they are right next to each other.

• [BN Flashback] Knocks Soldier Boy to the ground with one of their projectiles.
• [BN Flashback] Beats Soldier Boy to the ground with the help of Black Noir and Mindstorm, however Soldier Boy gets up and knocks them down.
• [Limit] Both of the twins die after taking a point blank hit from Soldier Boy’s radiation beam.

Swatto

Swatto can fly around with insect-like wings… yeah that’s literally all there is to say about him.

• Flies in the air for a little bit (yeah this is literally his only feat apart from beating up a homeless guy with Soldier Boy off-screen).
• [Limit] Dies after getting hit by a missile while flying high into the sky.

Respect Threads for Scaling

• Kimiko
• Billy Butcher

Hello all. I have written here before about my job at Ultima Resort (1,2,3,4,5,6,7), though I know it has been a while, sorry about that. We were trapped for some time, my phone died pretty quickly, and I wasn’t able to recharge it again until the water receded. So, I haven’t really been able to write. But I am getting ahead of myself. Let me get you up to date, then it will all make more sense.
I opened a door and peered into the closet, but the noise was quieter here, if anything. I shut the closet and continued down the hallway. The dripping had started out intermittent. The gentle plip, plip, plip was barely audible over the normal sounds of the hotel, and we had assumed it was related to the steady rain that had been drumming on the building for a few days, at that point. But the frequency of the dripping had been increasing steadily, and now was concerningly loud and constant. It was somehow audible from every corner of the hotel, and it was only a matter of time until the guests complained. They were already irritable because of the bad weather, which had kept them stuck indoors. As I passed a window, a flash of lightning lit the forest behind the hotel. The lights flickered ominously but it stayed on. The clap of thunder rattled the doors in their frames. I spotted Vincent hurrying towards me from down the hall. His face seemed pale.
“Well, did you find the leak?” I asked.
“Umm… you could say that,” he replied, uncomfortably, eyes shifting to the storm outside.
“What’s wrong?”
“It… well, you should just come see.”
I followed him down the hall to the ballroom where we had hosted the anniversary party some days back. It had been a nice event. Less deaths than I had expected. The hors d’oeuvres were pretty good. There was still a bit of smoke damage on the west wall, but we had cleaned it off as best as we could and the place looked presentable again, though I was now thinking we should put on a new coat of paint. It was hard to decide, when I wasn’t sure if the room would even be here next week. Vincent opened the door on the back wall and gestured me inside. This was new.
It was some sort of small storage cupboard, with dim lighting and a low ceiling. It was full of what looked like furniture, draped in white cloths for storage. I wondered what the furniture was made of, because the room had a strange fetid odor, that reminded me of rot and death. I covered my nose with my hand instinctively, but it did little to help. The small window in the back showed that the rain continued to fall outside, but it didn’t seem to be the source of the leak, as the floor around it was dry. Still, the leak must be in here, because the sound was louder than ever. I took a step forward, to get a better look at the room, but Vincent grabbed my arm and pulled me back, pointing towards the ceiling. I looked up to see a large dome light. It had a strange dark tint, and hardly any light made it through. But something else was coming from the dome. Drips fell in a steady rhythm, and as my eyes tracked them, I saw them splash into a widening puddle on the ground. The puddle was viscous and black, glimmering in the dim light. I looked back at Vincent.
“What is that?” I raised an eyebrow. “It doesn’t really look like ordinary water to me.”
“I don’t know. Maybe… it is picking something up as it drips through from the roof?” he did not sound particularly convincing.
“Maybe,” I tried to play along. “Though, I am not sure I want to know what that could be. Did you check if it is coming from somewhere upstairs?”
“Yeah. Nothing out of the ordinary on the floor above, and I can’t find any signs of a leak anywhere else.”
“Alright,” I backed out of the door and closed it behind us. “Well, I am sure whatever that is will work itself out.”
“What? We’re just going to leave it? Why did we even bother looking, then?” Vincent protested.
“I was worried it was a roof leak, something we needed to handle with routine maintenance. That does not seem to be the case,” I raised a questioning eyebrow. “Do you know how to fix whatever is going on in there?”
“No…”
“Me neither. In this place, when the ceiling is dripping black ichor, it is probably for a reason. I assume we’ll find out when one of our guests gets involved.”
Vincent opened his mouth, as if to protest, but even as he did, the sound of the phone at the desk echoed through the hotel. Vincent sighed,
“Alright, let’s go see what fresh hell awaits us today.”
I heard a small chuckle inside my head. I resisted the urge to ask Al what he knew. He answers were rarely helpful. He didn’t seem to lie, but he was often intentionally misleading, saying whatever he thought would elicit the most drama. I was tired of giving him the satisfaction. I was sure I could sense his disappointment when I refused to engage, but maybe that was just wishful thinking on my part. I couldn’t blame Vincent for being apprehensive about what the guests’ inquiry might be. The three men had arrived to participate in some sort of golf event, but they been here for 3 days now and since it had poured every moment, the event was not taking place. The guests were very unhappy about this turn of events, and they had mostly been killing time by taking it out on us. That wasn’t exactly a surprise. The rich ones were always the most demanding, unused to being told ‘no’ even when the question was ‘has the rain stopped yet?’, and based on the Bugatti they had arrived in, these men were quite rich. I answered the phone on the desk, already suppressing a sigh.
“Ultima Resort, front desk, how can I help you?”
“You can come and open the bar,” the voice on the other end snapped. “It’s past noon and the sign says it should be available by now.”
“I apologize, sir. I’ll be right there.”
“You had better be. The service at this place is frankly astounding. Honestly, I don’t understand why anyone ever stays here. I have half a mind to leave a review warning people away.”
“I’m sorry, sir. I know your stay hasn’t been ideal, but please bear with us and we will do everything we can to make it right.”
“You can start by hanging up the phone and getting me my drink.”
The line went dead in my hand. I sighed and replaced the phone on the cradle.
“Let me guess, they wanted to give us a large tip and leave early?”
“Don’t quit your day job,” I chuckled. “You wouldn’t make it as a psychic. Come on, let’s go open the bar, before we have a mutiny on our hands.”
I grabbed the key to open the shutters from the desk and we headed into the dining room. Our three guests were standing around the locked bar, making a show of checking their watches. I struggled to keep my eyes from rolling. It was 12:03pm.
“You know,” Jack turned to the man next to him, but spoke loudly enough to be sure I could hear. “This reminds me of some of the dumps we stayed in before we made our fortune, you know? The little rat trap motels in the port towns we had to stay in.”
“The customer service certainly leaves something to be desired, for a 5-star resort,” his companion, Stewart, sniffed. “For the amount we are paying, I would expect better.”
I turned the lock, opening the bar. I let them vent; I didn’t particularly care if they left us a bad review, and I certainly couldn’t do anything with a good tip, so they were free to hate it here if they wanted. It mattered less to me than they could possibly imagine.
“Can you both hear that leak from your rooms?” the final man, Lesley, asked.
“Can we? I swear it is audible from everywhere in the hotel. There must be a dozen leaks in this old roof,” Jack laughed.
“It would explain that,” Stewart gestured to wet stain on the carpet across the room, oozing out from under a door I didn’t remember being there yesterday.
I glanced over to Vincent, he shrugged,
“I guess we’ve got a new connection to the ballroom. That’s kind of handy,” he said quietly to me, stepping behind the bar and reaching for the rum to pour; it was all they ever ordered.
“That’s another thing that reminds me of the old days,” Jack elbowed Lesley. “You would think a landlocked hotel would be drier than a yacht, but here we are. Maybe you should get out a mop, see if you remember how, Les.”
Lesley stiffened,
“I don’t do menial labor anymore, Cap.”
“Of course, of course,” Jack clapped Les on the shoulder. “Just a joke, mate. The usual, my good man,” he smiled at Vincent, who began pouring drinks.
As day transitioned into evening, I left the dining room in search of absorbent material, to put down on the leak that was spreading persistently into the dining room. I found some cat litter in a back closet, and it seemed like it would do, for now, so I returned and began spreading it over the growing stain. Jack at the bar looked up blearily, watching my work, before finally declaring,
“Oh, so it’s shit, then. That would at least explain the smell.”
“I think it smells more like a rotting carcass,” Stewart interjected.
He had a point there. Maybe I should get some baking soda from the kitchen.
“You know what?” Jack concluded. “Let’s get this next bottle to go. We’ll take it to our rooms for the night. I can’t stand the smell down here another minute.”
He grabbed the bottle from the bar, then he rose and led his friends out of the dining room. I couldn’t say I was sorry to see them go. Vincent circled out from around the bar and approached the soggy patch on the floor.
“So, is that the storage room?”
Now that we were alone, I risked turning the knob and I opened the door to see the same storage room we had entered earlier, though now the light fixture was pouring dark liquid onto the floor, the drip having turned into a deluge. I slammed the door again.
“Maybe we should get Manny,” I concluded.
Manny stood back, watching the ichor pour down like a waterfall. It was pooling around our shoes now, even standing outside the doorframe. He stroked his chin,
“How long has it been like this?”
“I don’t know,” I frowned. “It’s certainly sped up since we found it several hours ago. Any idea how we stop it?”
Manny closed his eyes for a moment, then frowned.
“I think, perhaps, that we should move the food and water from the kitchen, so they don’t get spoiled.”
“Move them where?” Vincent asked.
“To the top floor storage closet. It’ll be safest there. Come help me gather things up.”
“What, exactly, do you think is going to happen?” I raised an eyebrow.
“Let’s just get to work, we probably don’t have much time.”
Manny turned and strode into the kitchen. Vincent hung back and tapped my shoulder,
“What does he know that we don’t?”
“I have no idea, honestly,” I shrugged, and Vincent headed off towards the kitchen. “Do you know?”
I kept my voice low, so the others didn’t hear.
Oh, are you speaking to me now? Al sniffed.
“Depends, are you going to say anything useful?”
Perhaps for a…
“If you say ‘for a price’ we can go back to not talking. I am not trading anything for this.”
I think you will find I am much more helpful if you are willing to make a trade.
“I categorically disagree with that statement.”
Fine, I could feel him scowling. I can give you a hint for free. Maybe try asking yourself what he’s hiding from you?
“Your free hint is that he is keeping secrets?” I raised an eyebrow. “Isn’t that true of all of us? That isn’t exactly helpful.”
Well then, perhaps you would like to make a trade?
“Why do I even bother?” I sighed and headed into the kitchen to join the others.
Vincent was helping Manny load food onto a rolling cart. The Chef was, fortunately, nowhere in sight.
“Grab another cart and start loading the soft drinks and bottled water onto it. We don’t have much time before we need to be in our rooms,” Manny instructed.
I heaved a case of bottled water onto the cart, and we all got to work. By the time we made the final trip the carpet in the hall squished under my feet, oozing dark, foul-smelling liquid. It was coming in fast, now. Manny was probably right; we wouldn’t want the food supplies getting contaminated with… whatever this was. After he finished stacking the last bag of rice in the closet, Manny closed the door and turned the key in the lock.
“Well, we should find our rooms. It is getting late, and I doubt they will be in their usual place.”
As he turned to walk away, I noticed blood dripping down from his fingers onto the carpet.
“Manny, wait, your arm,” I pulled up his sleeve to reveal a thin, but deep cut running up his forearm. “What happened? Are you alright?”
Manny yanked his arm away,
“It’s nothing. I must have scraped it moving a box.”
It didn’t look like a scrape. It looked clean, with sharp edges, like a knife wound. But before I could say anything more, he was gone, disappearing down one of the halls.
“You ever wonder about him?” Vincent asked.
“Wonder what?”
“What his deal is. Come on, don’t play dumb. You’ve noticed how strange he can be. How he seems to know things about this place he shouldn’t. Surely, you’ve considered that he might be… one of them.”
“One of them?”
“You know, one of the things that run this place, like the Chef. A demon.”
“Manny? No, that’s ridiculous.”
“Why? He was here before you, maybe he was always here.”
“He is nothing like the Chef or the Masseur. It’s obvious that he is a person.”
“Is it? Maybe that’s just another trick. Maybe he is here to torment us, to steer us wrong.”
I shook my head,
“No, he’s helped us, helped me, many times. It’s impossible.”
“Alright,” Vincent shrugged. “But I have a bad feeling about this one, Lucy. Something about that… water. It isn’t right.”
“You always have a bad feeling. Come on, it’s time to get to sleep.”
“Right. See you tomorrow.”
However he knew, Manny was right. I found my room on the 2nd floor, in a back hallway. Since it wasn’t in its usual place, it took longer to find, but I did manage it before the deadline and locked myself in. Somehow, I could still hear the sound of flowing water, though. I could hear it everywhere in the hotel, in fact. In a way, it was soothing, people liked the sound of flowing water, right? So, keeping that in mind, I allowed it to lull me to sleep.
The morning arrived without fanfare, or a discernable difference in the light coming in through the windows. The storm continued to rage outside, and the clouds were so thick and dark that it was impossible to tell that dawn had broken. Still, my watch told me that day had arrived and so I left the room prepared to mop up whatever water had pooled downstairs and try to serve breakfast. No food had appeared in my room last night, so breakfast sounded very appealing. At least I could sneak a muffin or something. As I arrived at the stairs, I saw Manny standing on the landing, gazing down at the lobby.
“Is the mess bad?” I asked.
“You could say that,” Manny didn’t turn as I approached.
I reached the railing and gasped. The lobby was gone. The whole first floor was gone. All I could see was dark water, lapping against the stairs.
“How is that possible?”
“That’s not really a relevant question, in this place,” Manny noted. “Let’s just call it a flash flood.”
I jogged over to look out one of the windows, lightning flashed, illuminating an alien view, the lawn and garden were also gone. The only thing in sight was a sea of dark water, with the occasional tree protruding from the surface.
“What do we do now?” I asked.
“What we always do. Vincent has headed upstairs to lay out some food. We can help him, then lock up the rest and go clean rooms.”
“And if the water keeps rising?”
“We keep moving up the floors, I suppose.”
I stepped down the stairs until I was next to the water, and reached out a hand to touch the surface, wanting to test its temperature and texture.
Stop!
I froze in place, hand hovering above the liquid, the command so urgent I couldn’t ignore it. Trying to act casually, I rose and headed back up the stairs,
“Alright, I’ll go help with breakfast. Maybe we should put up a sign directing the guests to the 5th floor?”
“I’ll handle that. We will have to ration the food carefully; we don’t know how long we will need to make it last. Whatever you do, don’t show the guests where the food is locked up, and only bring out enough for us to have a small meal.”
“Right,” I nodded. “See you up there.”
I turned and headed up the stairs. I waited until I was out of earshot to ask,
“Ok, what was that about?”
Do not touch the water.
“Yes, I gathered that. Why?”
Because you belong to me. And I need you alive.
“What is the deal with that water, exactly?”
But only silence answered. He was done volunteering things for the moment, apparently. I sighed and continued up the stairs. Vincent was waiting for me on the fifth floor, hovering by the landing, looking down over the dark, gleaming surface of the new lake below.
“Have you ever seen anything like this before?” he asked as I reached the top of the stairs.
“Nope, this is a new one.”
“I wonder if this is what being on the Titanic felt like?” he mused. “Water rising, nowhere to go, just waiting for the end.”
“We aren’t on a ship, though.”
“No. Does that make it better, or worse?”
I shrugged and Vincent passed me a bagel,
“I figure we should eat the breads first; they’ll go moldy in this humidity. We can save the rice, potatoes, and canned goods for later.”
“Makes sense. Do we have a way to cook any of those things?”
“I looked around. Some of the rooms have fireplaces, I guess we can hang a pot over the fire, cook that way. But maybe all this will stop before we get to that point.”
“Maybe,” I wasn’t exactly feeling optimistic about it.
I helped Vincent lay out some fruit and soft breads on the hall table, so that when the guests awoke, they would have something to eat.
“What exactly are we going to tell them when they get here?” Vincent asked, putting out some bowls. “We can’t exactly say that the hotel is sinking and it’s all perfectly normal, can we?”
“What else is there to say?” I shrugged. “It’s some sort of flood. We don’t know any more than they do. It’s the truth, right?”
He considered that for a moment, then nodded.
“I suppose it is.”
A sudden commotion from downstairs drew us to the railing. The three guests were standing on the 2nd floor landing, looking down at the water, Manny was saying something I couldn’t quite hear, but the response was clear enough,
“What do you mean, underwater!” Steward shouted. “This hotel is on dry land. We specifically avoided anything near the ocean or any major body of water. Where did all this even come from?”
“We are located on a flood plain. It is possible that the dam broke upstream,” Manny explained calmly.
Dam, huh? That wasn’t a bad explanation.
“If that is true, where are the authorities, shouldn’t someone be here to evacuate us?”
“I am sure they will be here when they can. Until then, we just need to stay calm and safe. There is breakfast laid out on the 5th floor, please stay away from the water and we will relocate your rooms to the upper floors.”
The trio of men grumbled, but eventually they headed up the stairs. Vincent and I ducked back to our places. As they grabbed fruit from the table, Lesley scowled,
“I told you we should have left days ago. We could have moved to another hotel. Now we’re trapped here, in this dump.”
“Oh, relax, Les,” Jack chuckled. “We’ve been in worse scrapes before. This isn’t a big deal.”
“And if the water keeps rising?”
“I bet we could manage to make a passable raft, eh Stewart?”
Both men chuckled, sharing a private joke, but Lesley still looked anxious.
“I didn’t ever want to be out on the water again. We agreed.”
“Seriously, Les, just keep it together, alright? Let’s just eat something and find some way to kill time. I am sure the authorities will send a rescue crew and we’ll be out of here in no time.”
I opened the storage closet and felt my heart sink as I looked on the nearly empty room. We were down to only a couple of boxes of crackers and a few bottles of water. We had rationed the food carefully, but it had been over 2 weeks now, and we had almost exhausted our supply. I wasn’t looking forward to telling the others. Things had been getting tense. The power went out on the third day, and by now every cellphone we had was dead. Not that anyone could get a signal before that, anyway. The water had risen all the way to the fifth floor, so we were all trapped together on the top floor of the hotel, with nowhere else to go, if it rose any further. The guests had mostly given up hope for rescue, and the rest of us knew that was never a hope to begin with. So, now it looked like the six of us were just going to be trapped up here to starve, if we didn’t drown first. I covered my face with my hands.
“That bad, huh?”
“Vincent. No, it’s… it’s not…” what was the point in lying about it? “Yeah, it’s that bad. We are almost out of food, and the water has risen at least another foot since yesterday.”
“What are we going to do?”
“I have no idea. Let’s just get back to the group. We shouldn’t leave Manny alone, in case the guests come out of their rooms.”
“Right.”
We walked back to the central hallway together. As we entered the room, I saw Manny with his back to us, removing a soaked shirt. Even in the dim light, it was clear that his back was webbed with dozens of scars and cuts. Vincent cleared his throat and Manny hurriedly tugged on a dry shirt.
“I patched the hole in the roof,” he explained. “The rain should stop getting in from there, at least. And I brought down a full barrel of rainwater and replaced it with an empty one.”
“Thank you, Manny. At least the water from the sky is… normal. Because we are going to have to start drinking that water from time now on, I think.”
“And the food?” Manny asked.
“Some crackers, nothing more.”
“Well, I guess we will all need to tighten our belts, then.”
A moment of heavy silence passed between us, before a door burst open and Jack emerged.
“Where’s the food?” he barked. “We’re hungry and the table is bare.”
“Food’s gone,” Manny replied coolly. “There is water in the barrel, to take the edge off.”
“We can’t survive on only water.”
“We can, for another couple of weeks.”
“So that is your plan, to slowly starve to death?”
Manny shrugged but didn’t reply.
“Well, suit yourselves, I have a better plan.”
Jack turned on his heel and stormed out.
“What do you think they will do?” Vincent asked.
“He said already, didn’t he? Build a raft,” Manny replied.
“Maybe that isn’t a bad idea,” I offered. “We could help, try to get out of here?”
“Has attempting to leave ever worked?” Manny asked. “No, all we can do is hunker down until this resolves itself. And I don’t think going out on that water is a good idea.”
“Should we try to stop them, then?”
“No. If they are focused on building, it will keep them off our backs, for the time being. Let them do what they want.”
Vincent and I spent the next few days watching the three men lash together furniture using heavy objects as improvised hammers and strips of torn bed linens as ropes. They seemed to actually have some idea of what they were doing, and they quickly fell into a rhythm, with Stewart and Jack doing most of the planning and construction and Lesley being ordered to fetch supplies and carry heavy objects. He grumbled about it, but did what they told him. They mostly didn’t even notice we were there, as long as we made a show of occupying ourselves with some cleaning task or another. They never even bothered to ask why we were still cleaning and maintaining a flooded, sinking hotel all day. It was hard to tell if they just paid so little attention to us that they didn’t notice, or if they simply figured it was our way of coping with the situation. Occasionally, they would ask us for some material they needed but could not find, and we would help as much as we could, then they would go back to ignoring us. On the third day, when the raft was beginning to look seaworthy, Jack sat back on his heels, admiring their handiwork.
“Well, boys? What do you think? Will it float?”
Stewart rubbed his nose with his thumb,
“I think it’s as fine a vessel as we have ever crewed, captain.”
Jack laughed,
“And you thought we had left those days behind us for good, eh chief?”
“They are. But it looks like it will come in handy for us, one more time. Good luck, huh?”
“Good luck?” Lesley’s face turned dark; he had been increasingly dour over the last few days. “I don’t see the good luck in any of this. I think we are reaping our just reward.”
“Don’t be ridiculous, Les, this flood has nothing to do with us.”
“No? You think all this is normal, then? It’s been raining nonstop for weeks, the water keeps rising, no one has come looking for us. It’s like…” he hesitated before continuing. “It’s like we are alone in our own private hell. Just us and dark water everywhere. I don’t know how you aren’t thinking about it. I can’t stop. I see his face whenever I close my eyes. I see the dark puddle in the bottom of the lifeboat. Maybe this is what we deserve.”
Jack backhanded him across the face,
“Pull yourself together, swabbie. And don’t speak again until you’ve regained your composure,” he turned back to Stewart. “Now, we need to get this to the roof before we finish lashing it together, or it won’t fit. Then, we can either find a way to launch it, or we can wait until the water rises enough, what do you think, Mr. Stewart?”
“Well, captain, I say we rig up some ropes to lower it, because if we wait until the water is that high and anything goes wrong, we won’t have another chance.”
“Very good. Alright, Les, help us lift these pieces.”
The raft was relocated to the roof and the next 3 days were spent lashing it together and making the ropes strong enough to lower it the ever-dwindling distance into the dark water. When they were finally ready to launch, Vincent, Manny and I gathered on the roof to watch. I had to admit, I was really beginning to hope they succeeded, even if it didn’t seem likely. We were still rationing out the last few crackers, but three or four crackers a day did little to even take the edge off of the hunger, which gnawed on my guts like an animal. If this didn’t work, I wasn’t sure what was going to happen. I looked over at Manny, his face grim and starting to look a little gaunt. As he turned to face me, I saw blood coating his neck and seeping into his shirt collar from a cut near his ear.
“You’re bleeding.”
He reached up and touched his neck, bringing his hand aways stained crimson,
“Shaving cut,” he offered, wiping it off absently with his hand.
I raised an eyebrow, but let it go. I had noticed Manny with little cuts or scars before, but he was always doing landscaping work or maintenance, so small cuts and injuries didn’t seem unusual. But suddenly, in such close quarters and confined indoors, it was apparent that he seemed to injure himself more than I would expect.
Curious, isn’t it? Al asked, speaking up for the first time in sometime.
“You have something to tell me?” I mumbled under my breath.
No, just noting that there is power in blood. I wonder what he uses it for?
Power, huh? That was probably worth thinking about. Later. For now, my attention was drawn to the makeshift ropes lowering the raft into the water. The raft settled into the water with barely a ripple, the liquid was entirely too thick and seemed to stick to the wood like oil, and the sound when it hit was less a splash and more of a splat. The three men looked at each other, confusion and concern on their faces.
“That doesn’t much seem like normal water, Cap’n,” Lesley noted.
“Probably lots of mud and silt mixed in, it’s nothing,” Jack waved away the concern. “Get down there and then you can help us down.”
Lesley shook his head, mutely.
“Fine, Stewart?”
The other man didn’t look happy about it, but he nodded apprehensively and moved to the edge of the roof and clambered down onto the raft. As it bucked and shifted under his weight, he lay down, waiting for it to stabilize, but instead, the rolling and pitching seemed to increase. Then, from the water under the boat came dozens of pale human hands. They were terribly bloated and marbled with green and grey. Corpse hands. Stewart looked down, terror written plainly on his face.
“No! It wasn’t my fault. I didn’t cause it,” he shouted at the corpses looming under him in the dark water. “You want the captain, not me!”
If that was meant to mollify them, it didn’t work. The hands gripped the wood and pulled, capsizing the raft and pitching Stewart into the water. He screamed as he hit the surface. Not just from fear, but pain. He tried clinging to flipped raft, but hands wrapped around his torso, trying to pull him into the dark. I could swear I heard whispers rising from the surface: Join us.
“Help me, please!” he cried.
He was too far down to reach from the roof, but maybe there was another way.
“Hurry, if we can get to the windows on the 5th floor, we can pull him in,” I shouted.
Vincent nodded and we ran down the stairs, searching for the room closest to him in the water. The screaming helped. When we dragged him inside, he was covered in scratches and bites from teeth that looked very human, some very deep and freely bleeding. His skin was stained from the dark water. The hands continued to reach for him, so I slammed the window shut, leaving them to paw at the glass, just as Manny burst into the room, followed by the other two guests. Seeing the seriousness of his injuries, Manny moved closer, kneeling next to me.
“Some of these are very deep. We need to get pressure on the wounds. Go grab some towels,” he instructed Stewart’s companions.
He inspected the bites and scratches more closely,
“Lucy, this bite is on an artery, press down on it hard, or he will bleed out. Vincent, go get some soap and water, we will have to clean this as best we can, under the circumstances.”
Vincent rose and Manny and I were left alone with Stewart, who seemed to have passed out.
“You seem to know what you are doing,” I noted, pressing down on the bleeding wound.
“I… I was a doctor, once,” he didn’t meet my eyes when he said it.
“Wow.”
“It was a long time ago. Another life.”
“Why didn’t you ever…” I was interrupted when Stewart’s eyes snapped open.
“I need a priest,” Stewart grabbed Manny’s collar, his eyes fevered and unfocused. “I need to confess my sins, before I die.”
“You aren’t going to…”
“We killed him,” he pressed on, oblivious to my objections. “Alan Ross.”
“The billionaire?” I blurted, surprised. “But he died in a… shipwreck…”
I fell silent. I remembered the news stories; Ross had been on a luxury yacht on the way to the Cayman Islands when it wrecked in a storm. The entire crew was lost, except for the captain, the chief mate, and a single deckhand, who had survived in a lifeboat. Ross was in the lifeboat as well, but he had already drowned, before they were able to drag him on board. They had drifted for over two weeks, with his corpse, before they were found and rescued. It had been a major news story, about a decade ago.
“It wasn’t like the news reported,” Stewart gasped. “When the yacht started taking on water, we should have stayed and helped to organize the evacuation of the crew. But Ross wanted to leave right away. He offered us money if we took just him and abandoned the others. We agreed, the captain and I. Lesley was just a deckhand, but he saw us leaving and followed. We quietly launched a lifeboat and fled, leaving the others to their fates.”
“How did Ross die?” I asked.
“He had a bag with him. It was so heavy he could hardly carry it. When he put it in the boat, it fell open and it was filled with diamonds. He was taking them to the Caymans. When we saw that, we… well, we decided. If he didn’t survive the shipwreck, if the diamonds were never found, who would know? We drowned him and hid the diamonds. When we were rescued, we waited awhile, then we sold them, made millions. But it wasn’t worth it… it wasn’t worth this. The guilt…”
He slumped to the ground. Manny met my eyes over the body,
“I think we lost him.”
As I looked up from the body, I saw Jack and Lesley standing there in the doorway, towels in their hands. There was an ugly look on Jack’s face.
“I wish he hadn’t told you that.”
“Told us what? He was raving, delusional,” I attempted.
“We were standing right here,” he replied.
I swallowed hard. Jack advanced into the room, holding a broken table leg like a club.
“We’ve kept this secret all these years, it isn’t getting out now.”
“We won’t tell anyone,” I protested.
“That isn’t a chance I am willing to take. Besides, with the food supply exhausted, it was always going to come to this, eventually. Might as well get it over with.”
“What are you doing?” I heard Vincent call from the doorway.
“Lesley, take care of him, will you?” Jack continued to advance on us.
“Please Jack, hasn’t there been enough death?” Lesley protested.
“Don’t act all innocent, you agreed to this, just like the rest of us. In for a penny, in for a pound, my friend.”
I glanced around for a weapon. Between the three of us, we should be able to take him, but I didn’t much like the look in Jack’s eyes. Manny had stood, backing slowly away as Jack advanced. Then the captain took a swing at him, Manny jumped to the side and the makeshift bat shattered the window behind him. Jack’s expression turned to one of horror as a pair of pale hands gripped the doorframe and a body began heaving itself through the open window. The broken glass sliced its bloated flesh to ribbons, but it didn’t halt the creature’s ingress. Dark, thick liquid that smelled of death oozed from its wounds.
“Alan!” Jack exclaimed, backing away swinging his bat at the creature.
“You owe me,” it gurgled.
We all backed out into the hall, but the creature advanced, slowly, leaving a trail of black liquid on the carpet as it walked.
“Is it money you want? I can get you your money back, your diamonds,” Jack offered.
“What use do I have for money?” it wheezed. “You owe me a life.”
Jack hit the body with his club, but it didn’t slow its progress. He screamed as it reached out a hand and closed it around his throat. Jack was lifted off his feet and the creature carried him to the stairs and plunged him into the dark water. At first, he flailed and fought, but a dozen hands rose from the water, gripping every part of his body. When he was completely immobilized, the corpse released him, letting him be dragged down into the depths. Then, it turned,
“Now,” it spoke to Lesley. “Will you fight, or come willingly?”
Lesley was trembling so hard he could barely stand,
“Please, I’m sorry, I beg you, spare me.”
The creature’s lips curled into a grotesque smile,
“Do you regret what you did to me?”
“I do, I do. I never should have agreed with their plan. Please, have mercy.”
“Did you have mercy on me, when I begged?”
Lesley shook his head.
“Then accept your fate.”
“What… what do you want me to do?”
“Walk into the water. Give your life willingly. Perhaps they will spare you, if you do,” the creature laughed, dark liquid bubbling from its mouth.
Lesley nodded haltingly and began to walk towards the stairs, stepping into the water, he walked down until he was submerged up to his waist. Then, the hands wrapped around his arms and torso and abruptly dragged him under. For a long moment, it seemed like he was gone, the same as Jack, but a moment later, he was thrown back onto the landing. Lesley raised his eyes, now as black as the water, and the creature smiled again, a tooth falling from its mouth as it did.
“Very good,” it burbled. “You have been baptized and born again into a new life.”
Lesley nodded, a serene smile on his face. Without a word, he rose and walked back into the room we had vacated only a moment before. Outside the window, the raft had been righted and floated serenely on the water. He looked down at Stewart’s body, then picked it up and draped it over his shoulder. Glancing back at the three of us, he winked,
“A snack for the journey.”
Then, he stepped out of the window onto the raft and drifted away.
“Don’t suppose any of you would care to join him?” the corpse of Alan Ross inquired. “Be born anew in the cleansing water?”
We all shook our heads silently.
“Oh well, another time, then.”
And with that, the corpse walked into the water and disappeared.
That night, our usual meals appeared in our rooms, and by the next morning, the water had receded, as if it had never been there. The electricity came back on, and the rain stopped. I was finally able to charge my phone and post this account. I tried asking Manny for more information about his time as a doctor but is as reticent as ever. I will keep trying, though, because Vincent and Al are right about one thing, there is something suspicious about how much he knows that he shouldn’t. But, that is a problem for another day, after all there is no need to rush, we aren’t going anywhere.
Until next time,
Lucy

I’m new to Reddit and it’s nice to find a community that understands this condition. So, this is the first place I feel comfortable explaining my situation and asking for advice. (I’m getting emotional even thinking about telling my story)
I’m a 55 yo gay man. I’ve had issues with my spine and neck that got worse about 15+ years ago. Had 2 surgeries 10+ years ago which, looking back, probably triggered the CFS that had been in the background and not on my radar. Since then it’s been a long story of trying to live a normal life, figuring out there was something else going on preventing me from fully recovering, getting diagnosed with FM, and finally realizing I actually have ME/CFS.
After getting the correct diagnosis and learning about pacing etc I was able to live a life, not like the one I had before, but I was able to carry on. But over the last 2-3 years my symptoms have gotten worse. At the same time, my world has gotten smaller as friends went on with their lives and I’ve become isolated.
My home, which I own, has become an absolute embarrassment. I was already struggling with clutter building up when my dog, who I loved more than myself, got sick and died. Honestly, the only reason I survived losing her is because I still have a cat I also adore. I couldn’t abandon him (I know it may sound like it, but I’m not thinking of harming myself). Anyway, between the symptoms getting worse and being completely devastated after losing my dog, the clutter turned into filth. My energy levels dropped so low that I could barely make it to the kitchen and prepare one meal a day. I’m 6’ tall and was down to 130#. That was my lowest point, in weight and in life.
Since then, I’ve been trying to eat better and I’ve put on about half of the weight I’d lost over the previous 6 months. But between preparing food, cleaning the litter box (not as often as I’d like), my monthly dr appointment, and grocery shopping, I have absolutely nothing left to put into taking care of my home.
My house used to be nice. But things have gotten so bad I haven’t let anyone come inside in 2 years. I had hoped to sell it and move out of Florida but that now feels impossible. And things are falling apart. A section of my fence recently fell. I have a guy who sometimes does lawn work. I was going to ask if I could pay him to haul the fence out for bulk trash pickup later this month. Now, my A/C is on the fritz. Even if I had the money to pay a repairman right now, I’m too embarrassed to let anyone inside my house.
I know the advice might be a version of “get over your embarrassment and ask for help.” I honestly don’t know how to get past the embarrassment and I don’t know who to ask for help.
-It felt, at the same time, good and horrible to put that in writing
-Thanks in advance for any feedback

I was watching an interview of Dr. Daniel Feldmann, an author of a French biography of Field Marshal Model, being conducted on a Youtube Channel called 'Military history not visualized'. As someone who is interested in military history but not very knowledgeable about it, my opinion on Model was that he was a great defensive general and his nickname, the Fireman, was well deserved. However, the author seems to believe that he is somewhat overrated. I will try to summarize his arguments in the next paragraph:-
To be considered a 'fireman', one should be able to prove that the commander in question was able to extinguish a fire more effectively than other commanders. Model's performance doesn't indicate this. As the commander of the Army Group North, he retreated a 150 kilometers. This was also what his predecessor, Von Kuechler wanted to do and would have done anyway, so Model doesn't deserve any credit for it. Then, as the commander of Army Group South as well, he merely implemented Manstein's plan(although the author does say that he cannot be blamed for this as he couldn't have done much else as the leader of the Army Group). Then, during Bagration, he once again retreats till the Vistula river, and the only reason the Soviets stopped there was because they were exhausted, not because of any brilliancy on Model's part. Then, in France he once again retreats about 200 kilometers right until he reaches the German and Dutch border. All of these performances show that he didn't really extinguish any fires. Further, all advancing armies of that period had to stop after advancing for 200-300 kilometers due to logistical reasons. In all of the cases mentioned above, this is likely what happened, as opposed to the armies stopping due to Model being particularly good at defense. The author claims that this can be proven by the fact that the situation in other sectors of the front where he was not in charge was not any worse, and even in those places the Soviets eventually stopped advancing at about the same time despite him not being there. Similarly in the west, where Model was commander of the Army Group B(which was in the north), the allied armies in both North and South France stopped advancing at about the same time. So this too must be attributed to the allied armies having advanced as far as they physically could before having to stop to consolidate. The author does say that he was good as a defensive commander when he could defend on 'prepared position' as can be seen by his performance in 1942 at Rzhev, where the Soviets failed completely, even though they succeeded spectacularly in Stalingrad at the same time, because he had time to create static defenses. The author also attributes his success at the Huertgen forest to this. He contrasts these cases with his defensive abilities in cases of fires that have already spread, which he claims were not anything special.
Does this seem like a fair assessment of his career? And if so, should he be included in the list of other overrated Wehrmacht generals, like Rommel?
