It was a wonderful day outside, the sun is shining, it's rays lazily laying on the pavement. The bees work as hard as ever. The flowers bloom slowly under the warmth of the sun, as a tall-ish [name] roams around looking for more pretty flowers to take under their wing and bring back home.

They continue searching. Flower? Where are you little flowers? They thought to themselves. I can't belive I've been searching for an entire HOUR. [name] thinks, a bored look already creeping up un their face.
I swear tO GOD- they get cut off by a sparkling shape suddenly appearing in their peripheral vision.

As they inch closer to inspect it, they find a gorgeous little silver flower, weirdly placed around some red, wilted roses. Huh, congrats little guy, you'll surely look good on my windowsill. [Name] carefully pick the flower up. Looking at it again, they notice something odd. "No roots? Weird.." they mutter under their breath.
Guess I'll just put it in that failed vase attempt from my pottery lessons.

[Name] begins to walk toward their street. As they continue doing so, they begin to wonder:
What kind or flower is this? It kinda looks like a Snowdrop, but it's petals seem to extend past their maximum height. What else? A Snowflake maybe? No, no, they have green dots on the petals, dingus. What about Leucojums? Is that what they're called..? They all look the same.. Dammit this is my hobby, why do I not know anything???

And in the blink of an eye, [name] is back home. The fumbled with their keys a while, before finally entering the apartment. The scent of different flowers flooded their nose. They took a deep breath in and closed the door behind them, locking it. [Name] put their stuff on the counter and took a seat at the couch.

Their apartment wasn't all that spectacular. A living room + kitchen combo in one room, a bedroom and a bathroom. Nothing more, nothing less. They really decorated this house (or apartment) to feel like home.

As much as [name] liked to sit and stare into space, they had actual things to do. So, of course, they did what any person would do and changed into more comfortable clothes and got to work puting the newly found flowers and put the in pots.

As they quickly finished the other flowers (or there were just too little to take them that much time) they looked over and observed the silver-white flower. No roots not pots I guess? Still a little odd..
Finally moving, [name] gently took the flower and strolled with it into the bedroom, where they put it on the deformed vase which was on the windowsill next to the bed itself.
Welp, I'd say it's a job well done..?

...
Yeah, sure.

And on that note they plopped right into bed. They adjusted themselves to sleep on their back and in a heartbeat they fell asleep.

...

But there would be someone lurking in the shadows...
...

...

Two eyes looked at the human with half-digust and half-hatred.

Who wouldn't greet their own... cat!

What a shame, human, you will now feel the wrath of Sheep!

The sly cat silently jumped on the windowsill, landing precisely on it. One wrong paw-placement and it would fall on [name]. It gracefully creeped on the flower. And with one swipe of the cats paw, the flower began falling.

[Name], having their mouth open almost chocked on the flower as it fell into their mouth, resulting in the body resorting to defence mode and bite on it.

The image was straight out of a horror kids movie.

[Name]s soul silently sat up from the body's initial position. As [name]s eyes opened they began freaking out.

"Uhm-AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA?!?" They screamed as the looked at their body, now white. "Wh- Wha- Why am I turning white!???" They continued. At last, [name] took a deep breath and calmed themselves down.
Ok, ok, it's toatlly OK. Right?

They looked at their hands once again : ok, they're white and slightly transparent.

Their torso? : just like the hands; white and transparent

The legs? : seemSAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Okay, yeah. You could see their body thru their legs... no big deal.

Finally, [name] stood up.
Whoa, feel pretty cool. They tried walking, and of course succeeded. Seems like a good time to take a stroll of the city. [Name] phased thru the apartments wall and fell down. Ouchie, okay so falling hurts but not a lot. Good to know.
They got up and began aimlessly wandering.

Sometime later, [name] found a metro station.
It seems, weirdly empty... should I not be here?
As if on cue, a trio of deformed, goopy mosters tried to surprise [name] by attacking them from the back.
They thankfully doged, but was cornered by the other two.

As much as [name] was inconvenienced by dying, they couldn't really talk it out.. they were monsters after all. The only thjng they seemed to do is groan.
Do they not understand what others are saying?

As [name] braced for an impact.. it was almost cliché it never came. The thing that came was a mysterious black person (in the literal sense) to the rescue.

After a (not so) intense battle, the mystery man has come on top! Realizing [name] should thank them, they tried to do so but was cut off by a deep voice.

"Are you stupid?"
