Illuminating Conversation (3) : This time of year there are lights hanging everywhere. They come in different colors, different styles, different patterns of illumination. You might not remember when it started, but when you looked at a display, you noticed the lights seemed to be flashing in a specific pattern. When you look away, you might be able to see out of the corner of your eye that they return to normal--but any time you look at them, they repeat the same unique sequence. It’s not just one light, either; almost everywhere you go you can find some light repeating the pattern. Is something trying to send you a message? Could it be Morse Code, or something else? A coincidence? Either way, you can’t seem to decipher the message and it’s getting to you. Especially because no one else seems to notice it.
Clue frowned as he stared outside of their apartment, looking at the lights that were on display around it. He was quietly sipping on some tea that had been made while he was looking outside of the window. Sure it had snowed and for the most part they had been able to stay inside and, at least until now, miss all of the magical shenanigans that usually went on at this time of year.
But, he had been noticing something out of the corner of his eye, like the lights outside had been blinking, not randomly or in the usual patterns that were programmed in them. They were... different. But he couldn't say what they were doing since it only seemed to be when he wasn't looking straight at them.
"You notice anything with the lights outside New?" He asked as he took another sip. If New saw the same thing, then he could at least say they probably weren't suffering under the same delusion and were totally sane.
