A Wardrobe of Trophies
This is a rather dark narrative transcript for a deleted scene from the film Der Untergang, or Downfall ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fsnAi1rNBvA ). Like a majority of historical films, it isn't 100% accurate, prompting my use of the historical fiction tag. Something about the medic's request to see the dresses stuck with me, and I decided to write. Two sentences turned into a short story with some sort of a theme, though admittedly communicated somewhat loosely. I suppose I could have developed a segment not seen in the deleted scene, but I'd rather toil with my own story idea in the works than worry so much about this. Oddly enough, that story will deal with death as well, but not in a war setting.

Hiding under a plane seat

This is almost public journaling. Sometimes exposing the more unsavoury contents of my brain in public helps me fight the parts of me who'd rather hide it. Kind of like flashing people, but with my brain. Also (I hope) not in a gross way. It is an exercise in acceptance. I have anxiety. I am afraid of flying and stressed by many little things. And I won't make it harder for myself by being ashamed. Not anymore.
