Had this weird fucked up dream/nightmare last night... I was in a store with a bunch of other people (one was one of my friends from university who I haven't seen in a year), and we were looking for something (I forget). A prophecy or something told us to look on the ground near one of the shelves, and we found a little bump in the floor. We called an expert, he prodded the bump for a bit and went "right, there's eyes under here, are you sure you want to open this?"

And we said "yes" and got a crowbar and pried off a section of the floor, and sure enough, underneath there were a few eyes... mechanical eyes, on stalks, which looked asleep. And there was a bit of paper in the mechanism, like the bit of paper they put between batteries and contacts in new clocks and the like to avoid the battery running out... before we could stop him, one of the guys pulled onto it and tugged it off, and bzzt, the eyes came to life. We all stayed well away, knowing they were dangerous, but the same guy dropped his scissors in the hole and, not thinking, picked them up, putting his hand in full view of the eyes.

After that, his cellphone rang... it was the eyes phoning him. "Hey. It's you, right? That hand in front of us was yours." The conversation went on for a bit, until the guy exclaimed, "I wish I'd never used my hand". "We can help with that", went the eyes, and the line went dead.

An eye stood up on its stalk and glared at the guy, and next thing you know, the guy had taken the scissors and chopped off his hand at the wrist, and was now screaming, with blood spurting from the stump.

And then I woke up.

*prods her brain* Quit that. Dreams like that are freaky.
