Hey, y’all, it’s Weird Wednesday! Where on some Wednesdays, I blog about weird stuff and give writing prompts.
Today: Fetches: Apparitions of the Living
Welcome to Weird Wednesday! Today we’re talking about ghosts that aren’t ghosts.
We all know what an apparition is: a ghost! And a ghost, by definition, is someone who’s died. But what about cases where people have seen ghostly figures who are very much alive?
July, 1882.
I was expecting my husband home, and shortly after the time he ought to have arrived (about 10 p.m.) I heard a cab drive up to the door, the bell ring, my husband’s voice talking with the cabman, the front door open, and his step come up the stairs. I went to the drawing-room, opened it, and to my astonishment saw no one. I could hardly believe he was not there, the whole thing was so vivid, and the street was particularly quiet at the time. About 20 minutes or so after this my husband really arrived, though nothing sounded to me more real than it did the first time. The train was late, and he had been thinking I might be anxious.
Amy C. Powys.
—Phantasms of the Living, Vol. 1
Check out the blog post for the whole story and some fetching writing prompts, such as:
Spy vs Spy. Fetches are usually thought to be mere apparitions, with no ability to interact with or even be aware of their surroundings. But what if a person’s arrival apparition could be used to get a glimpse into an unknown place? Say a character was on a battlefield, about to storm a castle. Their fetch could take a quick look around before they get there. Or perhaps a prisoner might be able to check their future cell for weak points. Crucially, it would have to be a place they were going to visit within the next few minutes, so it wouldn’t give much time to react to what they learned. Unless, of course, as the writer, you change the rules— what if fetches could precede a person by a full day? But remember, anyone in the castle or prison who saw the fetch would get advance notice of the arrival.

I wish my cat had a phone so I could text him while I’m at work and tell him I love him and I miss him and he could send back blurry pictures of random things, incomprehensible gibber texts, and audio recordings of his crinkle ball

I see a lot of people still confused about this, so here it is straight from the horses mouth!
Yes! These are cheeky little references to the indie cartoons Lackadaisy and Far Fretched, respectively.
Wack A Daisy should be a self-evident joke. Rocky and Freckles' colors are swapped for extra funnies (and copywrite skirting~)
Hell Puppy was the original title for Far Fetched, so we thought it would he funnier to use that instead of trying to wrack our brains trying to find an inverse of "farfetched" lol
We snuck Caine from The Amazing Digital Circus on a poster in Shrike's room, as well~ (dual wielding his iconic™ guns)
