why do I get the feeling of being hunted for sport by a serial killer whenever I have to check my emails and messages

WIP ANNOUNCEMENT

Today marks the 10 year anniversary of F.E.A.R. 2, the second in a series of horror games I played to death in my formative years. I recently replayed this particular entry in the series and while I still adore the games and their stories, I found some of the outdated ideas of what constitutes "scary" to be frustrating, namely the theme of sexuality and assault that the game revolves around.

In honour of that, I thought there was no better time than today to announce a new project I'm working on, nicknamed Monolith in honour of the story that inspired it. This will be darker than my usual writing, focusing still on found family but also adding a twist to the "vengeful female spirit" trope in horror. At the moment it's still in planning stages, but I'll be updating everyone as it develops!

She was only a child.

Read on AO3

She was only a child when daddy gave her to Armacham. She shouldn't have been old enough to remember but her nightmares were so strong and his face afterwards was burned into her memories. Greedy. Curious. None of the emotions she knew a papa should have towards her.

She was five years old when she realised what the experiments were for. They poked and prodded at her; keeping her in a cold, empty room. Stabbing her with needles and knives and strapping her to machines. They wanted her to be stronger. To find out why she could move things with her mind. So she tried to fail their experiments, do everything bad. Maybe they wouldn't want her any more.

When that didn't work, she struggled against them. She couldn't take it anymore, she wanted to run away. She didn't even understand what she did when her brain went fuzzy and the lab caught fire. She didn't know the scientists were having bad dreams too -- she just wanted them to know she was scared.

She wasn't even eight years old when everything went numb. They didn't know she could still see sometimes. Didn't know she could still feel it all like a nightmare. They just made her still and silent and helpless while they kept poking and prodding her, talking to her bubble prison like she didn't know what they were saying about her. Like she didn't know daddy was telling them to make more people like her because she was uncontrollable. She was eight years old when she realised she'd never leave here ever again.

Alma Wade was fourteen years old when they woke her up, though she couldn't tell how much time had passed. She could feel the baby they put in her; knew when he was waking up. Knew that he'd be taken from her. She had to fight. She had to get out.

She woke up properly just in time to see them take him, and then everything was numb again.

She was sixteen when she had her second son, taken from her like the first. But she had been thinking, while she was in her bubble. She wanted to get out and she wanted her sons to get out. She was stronger now; strong enough to wake up her son. She knew what death was now. She killed them through her boy.

They would kill her for this, but that was okay. She knew what death felt like now. She was ready. In years to come they would call her a bitch, psychopath, murdurer, but... she was only a child, after all.

She was only a child.
