Turntable Reality[]
You might be familiar with shifting realities. “Shifting”, they like to call this method. It’s gained a large following, you could have heard of “shift-tok”, or whatever they call the shifting “community” on Tumblr. But to all the skeptics out there, it’s just lucid dreaming. It’s a fool’s mistake, to think that you could shift to your perfect reality with simply your mind and a glass of water. There is, however, a single world beyond ours (far from perfect, though). For the sake of this… journal? Post? Whatever you’d love to call it, we’ll call it… Sayo. Our world is Hina.
This world is… Upside down. The beings there will know you don’t come from this world. How? Well, the world is upside down… You’ll be the only one right-side up. By which I mean, everyone there is extremely harsh, and this is considered normality. Even if you act as cold-hearted as you can, they will know. And also, apples are blue. Sometimes things are opposites- for example, bananas taste bitter.
But how did I get there? You don’t want to know. But if you enjoy lying to yourself, the following is written with you in mind… Just be warned. This is life-threatening, and if you fail, the Divine will not think of you kindly.
You will need: A clear mind (Necessary. If you have trouble thinking of nothing, sorry.) A strong desire to enter A silver/gold necklace carved to appear as a moon/sun (must be made of something easy to break open/rip apart). A wide open space indoors, big enough to stretch out your entire body comfortably A will to live A crown (Plastic or not will not matter. However, real metals work best.) A good joke or two Confectioner’s Sugar (Powdered Sugar)
Step 1: Make sure your door and windows are locked. Close the blinds, for god’s sake. Close them as much as you can. No one must view you while performing. Leave the lights on also.
Step 2: Create a circle of powdered sugar. The circle must be large enough for you to lay down in. Enter the circle wearing the crown and powdered sugar in hand.
Step 3: In the circle, try your best to draw your favorite shape using the sugar. If you spill sugar out of the circle or try less than your best, there will be dire consequences. It doesn’t have to be perfect, just give it your all. It must be your favorite.
Step 4: Exit the circle and bring the necklace into the circle. Rip the necklace in 2 and place one piece in the top right and one piece in the bottom left corner of the circle. (Envision your sugar circle as a square and place the necklace pieces accordingly. You may not take the necklace out of the sugar circle.)
Step 5: Tell a joke. They love humor, they laugh easily, they’re a sucker for a good pun. They believe any joke is enough to throw their head back. However, this joke cannot insult another being- including them or their world.
Step 6: Place the crown at the inner edge of the circle. This crown will act as an offering.
Step 7: Speak the words “I’m tired and angry of my life being right-side up. Take me to the flipside.” 3 times.
Step 8: You’re here. You’ll be in your world- but with a few extra rules.
Some tips to follow at this other-world:
1: Every rule you thought you ever knew has a 60% chance it’s going to be turned on its head.
2: Read rule signs. They’re everywhere in this place.
3: Make as little social contact as possible.
4: Don’t stare at the flowers for too long.
5: Don’t try making friends. You’ll probably get beaten up- and after that, they’ll shove a lily-of-the-valley into your face.
6: Everyone is blunt and unforgiving. Don’t get in anyone’s way.
7: When checking in at a hotel, don’t ring the bell. It wakes the thing up, and it won’t be happy about it.
8: If renting, pay your rent on time. There’s one landlord everywhere in this place, and she won’t be pleased.
9: Don’t insult cheesecake… Just don’t do it. It’s the symbol of the planet, albeit it looks a bit different. (And why would you, cheesecake is delicious!)
10: You’ll want a job in this place. All jobs pay well, so don’t think about it too hard- just don’t apply to be a teacher.
11: If you ever find yourself in a tough spot, just tell a joke you’ve never told before. 45% of the time it solves your problem- the rest of the time? Tough luck.
I should mention- once you’re there, there’s no going back. Seems great, right? I can’t imagine why you’d want to make a trip to Sayo. Hell… now that I think about it, maybe Sayo isn’t the only one. What if there’s more realities? What if those 14-year-olds on TikTok were right?... Nah. My point is… Careful what you wish for. If you wish to go to Sayo, be my guest… but don’t let your decision make you regret it.

~~ Chara has feedbackThe Inferno Of Hell[]
So I don't really find this creepy but rather............. like you are going to hell with your own choice! That makes sad and describing things as "the thing" is pretty good in my opinion but is a bit cliche. I'm a dumbass and you are better than me when it comes to writing so I wouldn't listen to me if you think you're better. I hope I didn't waste your time. Bye!
