"I bent over and vomited." I don't use #meltdown either. There's a kind of meltdown in my prequel short story but I can't excerpt it without spoilers. I've broken it into a three-part serial, the first part of which will be sent to subscribers on Thursday. #WIPsnips #indiepublishing

Trumpy has a #meltdown
a new one everyday
he takes no fault
as he fills his vault
what a moron, we all say
he's a walking mental illness
the godless vile kind
he's crooked as the day is long
he's lost his fucking mind

Excerpt from my #wip Possessions

*'Stuck' once again, Deidra has a #meltdown as

‘... stuck in a sponge – a thick wet, dirty, gray, sponge.’
There was darkness, but for two distant windows; ovals of light too far to reach. The terror, like an angry storm hell-bent on spitting thunder, had returned. She realized and remembered the horror: those ovals were her eyes and she was stuck. The image of the strange little man at her door flashed in her mind.
Suddenly a face rose up before her, blocking the ovals of light, blocking even the blackness. It was a pale, long, ghostly face, but it melted and hardened, pulsing like a beating heart. It shifted – not a face, just the shape of one: no eyes, no mouth, just a bump where the nose should be. The bottom of this melting face yawned black. Above, two black holes blinked open, piercing dark orbs. Guttural, like a dull-bladed saw grinding concrete, a scream ripped through her skull.
The face grew hair from its head, thick and black and curled. Diedra watched, silently screaming as the hair became eels, round sucking mouths filled with sharp yellow teeth, then shifted back to just black, curly hair. The face took form: eyebrows, lashes thick and long; a Roman nose if there ever was one. The mouth burst at the edges, thick blood pooled to become thick lips. The face withdrew, becoming smaller and smaller. A smile thinned the lips as it finally spiraled away.
Deidra saw the ovals again. She reached for them in a slow motion, but her scrambled thoughts were frantic, panicked by a sense of imprisonment. This time the ovals rushed closer until she was in them. Her eyes did not have to open; they were always open. The alarm clock beside the bed: 1:45 p.m. Deidra could have sworn she just hit the pillows, yet five hours had passed. She closed her eyes and sleep – real sleep – came for her, she welcomed it.

“They tipped you off!” he shouted as his programming began its nasty work on Elm’s ship. “Enlighten told you we were here!”
Elm had been halfway through a growled threat, but clearly she couldn’t help but enjoy his dismay.
“Yeah,” she said. “We’re a big fucking family, and they were happy to help us out. You been rocking the Rockhaven, little man? They were very eager to… Wait. What the fuck are you up to?”
He didn’t bother to answer. Theonova’s fusion reactor was an old model, far behind on its inspection. The slug was ancient, a lead case of radioactive material as old as sin. He didn’t need much effort at all to begin the process of heating up its redundant systems in preparation for a meltdown. It asked him where all the heat was supposed to go, and he ignored it. Alarms began to blare in the ship’s diagnostics, and he let them sing with grim satisfaction.
“I said, what the fuck are you playing at?” Elm demanded, sighting herself down the crossbow. “If I find out you’ve been-…!”
“Stop that!”

The reality and the vulnerability of her situation hit her full force, and she curled into a fetal position, sobbing out incomprehensible syllables.
The old man and his grandson paddled to her side, giving her a skeptical once over before kneeling down and placing a water bottle to her lips. "Now, girl, now now," the grandfather cooed, with the energy of someone used to comforting children in meltdown. "You'll be okay, now. We got ya."

Rushak typically expends tremendous effort to maintain his decorum and dignity. But when he loses it alone with Drisal, it’s gone.

- Brother’s Keeper, my fantasy WIP about two brothers bound by a misunderstood power

"Please, Drie."

He shook his head again, rising to his feet.
"Now is not the—“

"Nam-Tar's despair! Can't you understand?
It's too much. It was my fault. He died because of what I am." Rushak lurched around the room, seeking escape from knives that came at him from all directions. "It's my shame. Things were set in
motion. Now the whole Forest is ... wrong somehow.It's coming. I know what to do. We have to, for the Forest." His fists flew to his temples. "I need it! I—“

Drisal pounded the table. "Order your
thoughts, Rethen!"

He froze.

Drisal drew a deep breath. "You know," he
said, grasping his own certainty, "what the Work entails. You know we both must be clear-headed. You know you mustn't be reckless. " Rushak remained still, tears smearing his face. Drisal secured the emeralds in their pouch. "Not these, not tonight."

Popped ope a new window to do my day's time-card when I noticed this on the "new window/tab" page. Almost makes me wish I had a #TruthSocial account to watch herr #Trumpler's no doubt epic #meltdown.
