Eric lives with his demons. Literally. A few months ago, his retired-scientist uncle finally extracted the alien presence in his mind. Of course, Eriez -the creature extracted- is murderous and annoying and maybe in love with his sister, and the procedure has left Eric with huge memory gaps. And he's forced to room with the creature, in the flesh now. But it's just a manifestation of an alien presence, it isn't like it's a person or anything... ~ apologies for anyone who reads my other pieces and notices a theme running here.
