#Bathroom Sign Guy

Alive

They moved their arm and waved to the person they could see Outside who jumped and picked up the sign they were on.

“Oh geez, I’ve never seen one of you start moving after printing before,” The man looked around quickly, “Listen little guy, you need to get out of here. I dunno what they’ll do if they catch you, but I am betting it won’t be good.”

The “little guy” looked around, seeing only a long flat plane on either side, between them and Outside. Feeling fear they charged into the void and the view Outside changed.

They were looking at the man from a different angle, while the man looked relieved setting the empty sign down, “Good luck, little guy.”

From that moment on, they were running. Between signs, stopping only to hide in plain sight, to overlap unmoving sticks.

Why was he alive and they weren’t? What made him so different? Why was he so alone?

There was never an answer.

—

Sometimes he’d stay in one place for days and just watch the people go. So few paid any attention to him, despite the fact that he was usually on a sign placed for their protection.

He watched them blatantly ignore warnings. Often he thought they were stupid, but occasionally he admired their courage.

—

Children often paid more attention to the signs than adults, and a few had definitely realized that they weren’t the stick that was usually on them.

Fortunately, the children never seemed to raise much of a fuss. They’d even waved to them once or twice and often got a wave in return. No adult ever believed them, that the stick figure on the sign moved.

—

One day, he became a babysitter.

The little girl had gotten separated from her parents.

She sat on the stairs the sign they were on was leaned against. They watched her cry, and talk so cruelly to herself.

They waved to her and she jolted, much like anyone else who saw them move. They jumped up onto the lettering of the sign and pried the dots off of the exclamation points and began to juggle them.

It was a bad attempt but she laughed and watched anyway. They were just trying keep her from running off and getting more lost.

Their attempt worked, and soon her parent found her.

They were gone between her looking at her parent and back at the sign.

—

They first time they jumped to a digital interface was… very different from anything they’d ever experienced before.

The plane wasn’t flat, or barely 3D. It stretched out forever. And from here, they could leave the ad they’d jumped to and explore the device as a whole.

Finding the internet was a blessing.

They roamed between devices freely, jumping from ad to ad for a long time before they found the InterWeb? NetScape? Outernet? Intranet? Every stick called it something different.

But there were sticks here.

None like him exactly, but others!

He was delighted but they were cautious. He moved strangely. He was sharp to touch. He was very strong. He was hard to look at for too long.

They would find a way to fit in here. So they could finally stop running.

Fun fact of the day. I live an hour and a half away from a pretty infamous maximum security prison, like Charles Manson was there. Anyway we have blood drives there for staff. Well I was there recently and I was walking to the office and from far away this dude asked if I needed help carrying the sign I had. Then I realized this guy was wearing a blue jumpsuit with DOC (department of corrections) on the back and I was like um hello??

The sentence “Mark Johnson and T’Pel are here again, sir” becomes every Starfleet admiral’s worst nightmare.
