r reassuring myself that everyone else was still alive i tried to embrace the experience well you re alive now i texted then after another dram of whiskey that i hoped i could blame later as having gone to my head i can come over and keep you alive and kicking some more i felt slightly nauseated at this but a little check mark showed that it was too late the message was sent and a moment later she d seen it you re corny she wrote but then sure we both knew it wasn t her i was trying to keep alive that night but we didn t speak about it i didn t ask what she was dying from or whether she was telling the truth we talked about tv we liked and the way the stars looked brighter after you d been in a city for a long time we had vigorous aerobic sex that felt like synchronized swimming both elegant and supremely silly we pretended to sleep the sun came out in the morning after several cloudy and snowy days it wasn t a sign it was just the weather i have no emotions she d claimed it was easier to believe her so i did share on x opens in new window x share on facebook opens in new window facebook share on tumblr opens in new window tumblr share on reddit opens in new window reddit email a link to a friend opens in new window email like loading march 27 2017 slightlyignorant 2 comments excerpt from flash fiction the day the earthmen came we were settling into an educational module in the viewing room twelve of us one monitor and an exhausted instructor who was no doubt underpaid and whom we certainly didn t appreciate instructor was of the tall sort limbs more twisted than usual a point instructor had no doubt been picked on for at our age but we were not yet so confident as to make fun of an instructor the way we would one another john was the only one among us who was missing and we didn t know why yet we thought we were safe and sound if bored to tears by the outdated moving image we watched and pretended to learn from there wasn t one among us who wasn t secretly tapping into the sphere to check how our pets were doing at home and how our sports teams were faring and whether or not we would be able to meet our friends that afternoon at our favorite watering hole all of which is to say that everything was incredibly normal that normalcy is part of the heartbreak of that day in my mind the monitor flickered and very suddenly we were being subjected to the live footage of the earthmen coming the government had clearly taken over all monitors and the sphere was so shocking that several of us cried out in fear and tried to put the images away but as our new overlords say you cannot force the furry mammal with claws back into the bag we had seen the earthmen and we were getting live updates on their descent from their crashed ship we didn t know what was to come then we were students with little to worry about beyond the exams we were to sit the first serious ones we were ever to take and the wrath of our parents if they found out what we d been hiding around the sphere for friends to find we were concerned with our next meal and the pressures of procreation that would soon be upon us we wanted to go to our moon during the next vacation and learn to pilot our own bubble instructor started to keen when it became clear what was happening instructor said nothing would be the same again we didn t believe it then but we believe it now names are untranslateable and untranscribeable so characters have been given standard christian names the english name given to what is to the best of our understanding like the internet crossed with a technologically developed collective unconscious we are as yet uncertain as to what such sports look like or where they are played for we have found no evidence to show that these beings have any fields or arenas or other dedicated areas to play in some theorize that by sports the beings mean something more like online chess no actual footage or recording material has been found the assumption so far is that monitors were played through the sphere with a being controlling what was being shown on the monitor actually a gaseous oval in which images resolve in 3d in varying degrees of detail share on x opens in new window x share on facebook opens in new window facebook share on tumblr opens in new window tumblr share on reddit opens in new window reddit email a

passionfruit smell everything the color reminds me of but not the substance itself plunge the fingers into the bathtub and watch the red spread curling curlicuing into shapes more beautiful than anything i could paint in a swirl of color on my canvas perhaps that s why it s been blank for so long the bathwater is warm now bloody so climb in sink let hair down see naked skin flush with the heat feel lungs constricting in the steam turn on the cold water watch it rinse the drying blood from under my fingernails the evidence is still on my face deep scratches not yet welting shut dripping fresh droplets into the hot now cooling water what makes a person eviscerate a face eviscerate a self let s see maybe the wounds of defection watching friends leave and lover spurn when they find out maybe it s having the past dragged up and needing to face it yet again as if the past time and the time before that and the one before weren t enough as if it is always necessary to be reminded of crimes committed when too young to think clearly let alone decide so there was a crime there was foster care there was counseling seven year olds don t get sent to jail maybe they should maybe i should have been records sealed name never in the papers only a description of what i looked like and what i d done no use pretending i killed them i did i killed them with cold blood and no malice i was curious and i wanted to make it stop what they were doing to me aunt and uncle uncle more than aunt aunt enough though wanted it to stop there s no malice in stopping the pendulum of a clock with your finger there was none in my actions either i just wanted them to stop moving and i d watched enough tv to know guns could make that happen eons gone by forgiven forgotten but not yet not every time they find out and so boxes empty canvas needs to be packed up suitcase needs to be pulled out of the closet clothes need to be folded up and placed inside a new apartment to be secured new friends to be made new lovers to be met i ve lived in more states than i was ever interested in yet it keeps coming back up so blood in the bathtub face scarred worse than ever they scarred me they left no marks newness to be introduced to everything again running looks like this returning looks like this too resolve this time to return to go back to where it all started to where they know my face my scars visible and not my crimes never forgotten still probably the most scandalous thing in a town of five thousand maybe someone will believe me after all these years lie in my blood and plan

mechanism eat all the chocolate in the house all the chocolate that exists in the house don t go out to buy more chocolate if it is raining if it is not raining cuddle your cat your dog your fish the fishbowl don t take the fish out or your stuffed animal then go out and get more chocolate once you ve eaten enough chocolate to make you throw up let loose try to aim at the toilet bowl but if that doesn t work any surface is fine maybe even better more memorable vomited chocolate looks remarkably like old blood brown and sticky and vaguely metallic in your mouth remember that chocolate is a coping mechanism look at the chocolate you threw up think of it as blood feel the pain in your stomach in your throat the pounding in your head imagine that after hours of dancing keel over pretend you ve been shot realize that unless you go out and try it you will never approximate what getting shot is like stop blaming other people it s all your fault the apathy the tiredness the knowledge that you should be sad the intellectual response that is being appalled yet functional remember that it is all your fault not the shooting only the aftermath try to imagine a loved one anyone your mom your dog the fish picture them getting brutally murdered if you feel something let yourself cry you ve accessed it the place you ve been hiding all this time if you feel nothing find a box of pins or paperclips that you can bend and make pointy insert the pins the pointy paperclips anything sharp into your eyeballs see the truth see why you re unable to feel think of your history with violence think of how you ve learned to be blase because you ve had to or you d always be scared afraid terrified remember you used to live this way remember you re not useful this way remember you are giving into the oppressor when you are not useful remember remember never forget remember that is the only way for you apathetic slug that you are to feel something cerebrally intellectually until you die a

in the nude awakenings column comes to us from ilana masad who was inspired to write grayscale during her senior year of college after her really kickass writing teacher assigned the piece we were our age by dawn raffel a piece ilana describes as being all about language and emotion and allusion a piece that you can t classify as a story but can t classify as anything else either says ilana grayscale is what happens when that teacher then tells you to try to write something where you pay attention to the way words sound and connect and allude grayscale is what happens when you re a clinically depressed and anxious writer and find yourself with a vehicle to tell a story that is about someone sad and angry and dreary and gray and tired grayscale is also something you look back and
