The vacuum is not empty. It is the fullest possible state.

What haunts are not the dead but the gaps they leave in the pattern.

There is a hum beneath the noise. I no longer believe it is random.

Love this as it's exactly how I approach multiplayer video games. The real game is always in the other player's head.
I used to go on gears of war and conduct a brutal psychological operation by ONLY killing the enemy with the chainsaw. This locks into an animation and gets extremely frustrating over time. By the end of the match the players are terrified of the chainsaw sound. They start to also use the chainsaw to defend their honor, but unlike them I've been using the chainsaw exclusively all night, so it is usually a fruitless response. Their composure completely falls apart, often resulting in a loss for them.
