Time Of Night

Welcome to this ficlet I wrote this in the middle of the night with nothing but a vague prompt and zero expectations! This gets deeper than I expected so enjoy!

Word count: 618

Summary: Virgil wakes up early. His thoughts spiral at the thought of what people could possibly be doing up late, in the middle of the night.

Virgil’s currently in bed at the moment, staying up impossibly late, blankets wraps around him, and his phone screen being too bright around the pitch blackness of his room.

He’s sure enough that everyone is could asleep by now. They could be. Thomas is definitely sleeping and the anxious trait just so happened to wake up early.

Looking at the time thats half past eleven pm, Virgil sometimes wonders what different people do at this time of night? In the dark inky blackness hanging in the air, millions of people are in their own world.

Some are too focused to even realize the story behind a persons mask as they walk passed hundreds of people. Not like it’s a bad thing. It’s normal to get caught up in the tangled mess that is life. It being almost twelve am, what could people possibly be doing in the middle of the night?

There are multiple answers to that really. Some good, some bad. The main point is every persons story behind why they chose to travel in the darkness.

Besides Logans possible answer being the reason of less traffic, someone could be going out of state, some friends could be pact in a car going out to have fun for a while, a nice family driving to some planned destination while the kids are sleeping in the back. So many possibilities.

Whats crazy is that that’s only scratching the surface. So many people have a life told through an endless mountain of memories that only they know and understand through others close to them. It’s so complex that not even a simple person walking down the street could understand what they go through, yet they both experience the same thing in their own way.

Someone’s travel at twelve am revolves at how they view the night. It’s dark and almost too quiet. You never know what’s lurking in the corners of your room or what’s behind your dresser or closet? Something could be lurking...watching you without you even knowing. Waiting for the right time to snatch your foot from your escaped bare feet from the covers.

It’s also peaceful. You’ve been out for many hours in the hot sun or the freezing weather and you just want to go home and be cozy for once. When you do you finish the rest the of your work or relax in your own comfort space scrolling through media.

And when the night finally does arrive, you flip the switch in your room and everything’s dark...black. You see nothing. You cant even see your hand in front of you. So your vision has to adjust.

It’s comforting though. The darkness consumes you in a way that it hugs your body. It lures you in a state of mind thats otherworldly in its calm, tranquil sense. The still silence is enough for you to feel peace in your own mind that you couldn’t get at a normal distracting nine’o clock coffee shop.

Whether or not someone’s night is being told through movement, it’s hard to distinguish which of the many people in the world are facing a (very) difficult challenge or not.

Staring off into the brightness of the screen, Virgil wonders how much progressed in someone’s life’s journey in the amount of time he deeply thought. He hoped they accomplished something great, or took the small required steps needed to further their goal... reaching closer and closer to their happiness.

We have all the time in the world, and that amount of time is unfortunately short.

Virgil turns off his phone and sets it somewhere near. He lays on his side and closes his eyes. He should probably be asleep right now.

A Timeline of Cultural Reference, Pop and otherwise

So, I’ve made some updates to a thing I’ve been working on. Below lies a list of events in chronological order. Most of them are things we (in the US) have heard of or reference in our culture. Some of them are surprising tidbits of trivia. Some are things we Really Should Know More Commonly. And some of it is just fun.

Why? Well, I found myself wondering things like “would Captain Kidd have been able to steal a Ming vase?” or “did the dodo go extinct before or after Harvard was established?” or “when was Sperm Whale oil last used?” Unlike a certain game, I’ve tried to keep to the latest proven dates on record and keep it accurate. The dates for thermometers, for example, changes depending on whether you mean “shows objective temperature change”, “records temperature with a numeric scale”, or “records temperature and is unaffected by barometric pressure differences”.

I tried to be inclusive beyond cis white male, but I know I’m not completely successful. A lot of things aren’t well recorded or documented and some things spread across a large span of time. In other words, if it’s not here, it doesn’t mean it is not important.

Have fun reading and feel free to drop me a note or comment!

A Timeline of Science, Art, and Culture References

For funsies, I decided to compile a timeline of events that are referred to in Western American cultural heritage. This is so I could get a grip on questions like “could Shakespeare have seen the ‘Mona Lisa’?“ or “could have Martin Luther’s thesis been set in Helvetica?” or “were ninjas concurrent with Caribbean pirates or the discovery of America?” I know not everything is included, and I left out many contributions that were significant, but I tried to make a point by including what I did. Especially with the scientific advancements. Some things are trivial, but rather interesting (sperm whale oil use, I’m looking at you). Other things, I just liked. I also left off most of the 20th & 21st century, because it’s mostly living memory.

In other words, don’t shoot the messenger if your favorite thing isn’t included.

With that said, here is what I have so far. Enjoy!:
