I was staying with my parents in a hotel room which had a TV that somehow knew who was watching. The screen would turn on or off automatically depending on which bed the viewer was watching from. We were looking through some old recorded programs when I saw Super Smash Brothers on the news.

I was catching a train with some friends but someone had checked in his large luggage despite being able to carry it on with us without any issues. He apologized and said that he wasn’t thinking in the moment. We’d just have to deal with not having access to the suitcase before we got to our destination.

We had somehow followed the crowd from the station to a large grassy field. We asked the people around us what was going on as it didn’t look like we were on the platform. Apparently some people were going to have a picnic before getting on the train and, like us, a large mass of people unknowingly followed them here.

We were walking across the roof of a building in the middle of the city. I saw a light in the distance that kind of looked like a USB port symbol. I pointed it out to my friend but it disappeared when he looked up. I suddenly felt disorientated and had a huge rush of vertigo. I froze as I looked down at the height below us. The area of the roof felt like it was shrinking until I felt someone push me off from behind. As I fell, I turned around to see two shadowy figures peering down.

I got up and rushed to the front door of the apartment building. Someone was coming out and I was sure it was the person who had pushed me off. I got my phone out and started snapping photos in quick succession as the door opened. However since I had forgotten to mute the shutter sound and turn off the flash, the culprit quickly turned around.

I caught up to my friend who was engaged in a fist fight with two other people. Apparently my friend was trained in Muay Thai. “Why do you have style?” one of his assailants asked. My friend shortly started throwing up - the other two commented that he must’ve been drinking too much earlier.
