Day 13 —Write about a random picture you would find in an envelope of finished prints at Costco.
I was walking in circles eating all the samples Costco offered. I was really there to get some frozen pot pie and white castle burgers, but what the hell, I had time to kill.
As I turned the corner in search of more samples, the wheel of my shopping cart made an odd sound. I looked down to find an envelope. It was the type that you’d find full of photos.
I bent down to pick up the thin envelope and several photos fell out. They fell out back side up.
I picked the one on top and flipped it over.
The first thing to catch my attention was a top hat. As my eyes scanned down, I see a man in a rust colored vest and a tailcoat of sorts. As if that weren’t weird enough, the man had goggles around his top hat, a weird contraption on his leg in a bronze colored metal, and a bronze gun that looked like it would spew lasers at people. The gun was pointed towards the camera.
To his left was a woman in a brown corset with a long gorgeous golden patterned dress flowing beneath. She had one hand laying on the choker on her neck and her other arm was wrapped around the man’s arm. Her lips were a crimson red.
The two stood in a garden full of grass, bushes, and vibrant flowers.
I couldn’t quite wrap my head around it. It was so Victorian-esque, yet not. The color was so vivid, but they were dressed as if it was the past. But the man’s gun and goggles said otherwise.
Wait…. Was that a Pikachu popping out of a bush? What the hell was going on? I just don’t know.
