Fantasy Drabble #201 “Respect”

The demon stood in the doorway and smiled. Mrs. Kirsch from down the hall hobbled by as if the eight-foot black horror wasn’t even there. Maybe only I could see it. When the old lady was out of earshot, I said, “What do you want?”

“You’re the guy that’s been writing those articles? The Debunker?”

“Yeah.”

“Well, the Boss just wanted to say: keep up the good work. Four people read your latest post and lost their faith today alone. Most of our best staff recruiters can’t pull four in one day.”

“Th… thanks?”

“No problem. Have a good day.”
