A letter from Sirius
“It was the early 1950s… But what emerged from the wreckage was neither man nor machine. It was an entity from beyond our world, a super-intelligent humanoid plant from the distant star of Sirius, the dog star.”
“The classic film, The Thing From Another World, played on silver screens across the globe… But what if I told you that this film, and the subsequent iterations, were not just cinematic masterpieces but tools in a grand deception?”

The man who saw too much, the marshals sent to find him, and the visitors the newsreels left out.
“We’ve been invaded by highly intelligent humanoid plants. Not once, but several times! I urge you to use the restroom now if you need to because what I will share with you will glue you to your seat!”
“You really got it?” Aidan cautiously inquired.
Drew the short straw: monitoring the nut cases.
“The face reminded me of a mangled Mr. Potato head.”

The softest of cautious knocks at the wood garage door announced a visitor. A strange, odd, and mostly quirky visitor. A too smart, not cool enough to hang with all the school celebrities, fellow. Few friends, but those he had were solid.
A twist of the dented brass doorknob and the moaning of the hinges proclaimed his entry. A ghostly whoosh of outside air to the inner sanctum was in cadence with the visitor. The odd one was now within the sacred confines of the garage sanctuary. Where the spiders hung out, the ants fed out, and the smell of car oil arose from the concrete floor. A woody, oily, inviting stink permeated the entire garage, creating a mystical steampunk oracle.
“You really got it?” Aidan cautiously inquired.
“Would I ask you to come over just for your company? You really aren’t that much fun you know. Kidding.” Tannin snickered.
“Aidan, sometimes I wonder about you. So cautious. Yeah, I got it. Didn’t your dad teach you that God favors the bold?” Tannin went all the way to full erudite chuckle.
They sat on the Scandinavian wood box seats. The well-worn wood complained with short twips of random squeaks. The smells of the garage added to the lost techno ambience. No lights on. Just sunbeam streams through the cloudy, uncleaned window.

Extinct is only temporary.
“A time jump forward 150 million years where humans are kept on preserves and sanctuaries and protected by highly evolved, intelligent humanoid plants.”
