Happy New Year

The building had been closed for about fifteen years...

Funding had dried up at the start of the Teens. The Lean Years...

Now it was to be de-mothballed.

It was our job to confirm vacant possession...

…Damn.

The skeleton staff never

left.

Looks like they were waiting...

For instructions that never

came.

Kept producing reports.

Nobody to read them. Nothing

to say.

Regular as clockwork.

Nice work if you can get it.

Ah....

...died brainstorming.

I wonder which dried up first. The ideas or the pens.

But... there should be

something else.

From the smell, I'd say there issomething else.

Something that's not...

...desiccated.

...operating off-plan.

Something feral.

...living off the vermin.

To be continued...
