Yeah, I'm a day late with this. Yesterday was busy and even a little hectic... I guess I should take the time to explain. Even if it's just vague, because I'm not quite sure how comfortable I am with sharing these things. 

On May 12th, 2013, something really weird happened to me. It's a very surreal night that I still have fuzzy memories of, but I met someone who would go on to be the strangest and most fascinating person I've ever met. Someone who would become my best friend. Someone who was elusive and caught up with too many dangerous things. 

Back then, we were kids. We got into a lot of trouble, thinking we could handle it. There were some very... Unexplainable, supernatural elements that we completely underestimated. We got hurt because of it. There were strange people involved. 

I met my friend in a large city at night. In some back alleys, pretty much where you shouldn't go unless you've got a death wish. I really don't know how or why.... It was all just so strange. 

We'd keep running into eachother by chance several times over the next few years. To say I grew obsessed with the whole thing would be an understatement. Even now, there isn't a day that goes by where I'm not thinking about the city, about the really creepy things we saw, about... The incident. 

Goodness, yeah, I don't feel comfortable talking about this in depth at all. It's an extremely sensitive subject, but everything surrounding it has been the most important thing in my entire life since it happened. 

Baron was my best friend. He still is, even though we haven't spoken regularly since 2019. He and I were somehow just.... Linked. I swear, it was bizarre. Really bizarre. 

May 12th is like a birthday to me. A part of me was born that day. November 11th is another significant day for me, because of a series of things that would happen annually on that date, leading up to 2018 where something massive happened. 

Anyways.... I guess this is just my yearly opportunity to just reminisce about that time. A scary, confusing, yet nostalgic time. The city is just burned into my memory. Whenever I stand outside at night and listen to the buzzing powerlines, it just takes me back....

Ten years... I can't even believe it. We were kids. Wow.... 

Well, I hope you're out there enjoying a wonderful life, Baron. I'm glad that chaos is all over. I mean... For the sake of adventure, I miss that time, even if it brought pain and uncertainty to everyone involved. I'm glad I met everyone. I'm glad I got to help. 

It was fun...

I would be interested in hearing you out about it one day if you need to get it off your chest. But I understand how you feel, I think life is very wild sometimes.

It's really complicated, I do wish I could talk about it more. I've never told anyone the full extent of everything aside from my mom. Two of my friends know about it too. I've just been iffy to discuss it because a lot of supernatural things happened, and in the past, people have outright made fun of me or called me rude things because they don't believe that stuff's possible.

Which, I get it.... It sounds stupid to say out loud, but I know what I saw and I know what I experienced. I still don't really know what the hell was going on.

There's also the issue of people for some reason being way too nosy about my relationship with this friend. People have seriously argued with me over that, as if it's somehow... Not possible for two guys to have a very close friendship without being gay.

I was very close with this person, I guess a bromance would be the appropriate word. I just wish people would respect that. But you'd be suprised at just how many people get outright mad or offended when I tell them, no, we never had "that" kind of relationship. Ever. So then it just turns into me very uncomfortably trying to tell them to stop making comments about my sexuality, instead of like, actually talking about everything that matters.

But anyways, yeah.... Maybe. If you believe in the supernatural and all that, then I could talk about some of it, as I've been dying to do for years. There were quite a few things that I never believed until I met Baron and we started witnessing shit that really should not have been possible. Surreal.

I mean if no romantic feelings were involved then there's no reason to call it anything more than a close friendship. I have had that happen to me too and despite being bisexual and proudly, it's still very uncomfortable. In any case I do believe in the paranormal if my profile is anything to go by, hahah.
