I stay away from the jar of flies she keeps in every room. They're her spies, and they buzz in her ears at night when she takes all the jars into her bedroom and lets them fly around while she sleeps. Sometimes this means she knows things she shouldn't. Sometimes it also means she believes her dreams are true. This can be very bad if she has nightmares about betrayals. I suspect that's what happened to my brother. Or maybe he did mean to betray her, to run away, to crush her flies and pull the wings from her ladybugs and overturn her bee hives. I don't know. The flies don't talk to me. I don't want them to. I keep a bird in my room, and I've warned her that sometimes the bird gets out, and if her flies come into my room, they may be eaten. Sometimes flies still come to my room, but not as much as when I was little, when they swarmed in until I had hysterics.

Inspiration: "I stay away" by Alice in Chains on Jar of Flies.
Story Potential: High.
Notes: This is so creepy and--I just want to spend a little more time here, even if it makes my skin itch.
