The joyous weeper.
Sounds pretty controversial, right? A weeper full of joy. Two words that are exact polar opposites, together in one 'person.'
A Weeping Angel.
Upon looking at a weeping angel in the eyes, never turn your back. Never blink. Never look away. You will not survive if you do otherwise. The angles cannot move while being looked at. They are hostile, and will kill you. They show no mercy.
That's what Tommy is, except, he is different. He doesn't kill. He doesn't like to kill. He never has. On the rare occasion that someone looks at him, he just scares and jumps at them, and that's it. He lets them go.
When I say "On the rare occasion that someone looks at him," I mean, everyone knows not to look his way. In the secluded town he is perched at, everyone knows what he is, and not to look at him. Really, it's like a legend in the town. Nobody in the town looks at any statue in the eyes, even though Tommy is the only Weeping Angel. It's like a big conspiracy theory that they all have where they think any statue could be a Weeping Angel. They've even tore down many many statues that were in more public areas.
So yeah, nobody looks at him, and he hasn't gotten to scare anyone in about two years.
But today was different.
When a small family of four moves to the small town, having no knowledge of the legend, what happens when one of them looks at Tommy, not knowing what he is?
