You don’t open the game.
You don’t want to.
You keep your laptop closed. Put your mouse away. Touch grass. Eat soup. Try to feel normal again.
But something follows.
It starts small.
Your YouTube autoplay glitches. The recommended videos—
they’re all Minecraft. Not even creepy ones. Just... survival tutorials. All from channels that haven’t uploaded in years.
You click on one.
It’s a farming guide.
The background music is warped.
It slows down, then cuts off suddenly.
Then silence.
The video keeps playing, but the guy’s voice never comes back. Just the cursor moving—planting wheat in perfect rows.
You close it.
You open Notepad.
You were gonna write a to-do list.
But before you can type, there’s already something there.
Just one sentence.
"you still don’t hear me."
You delete it.
You don’t tell anyone.
--------------'-----------------------------‐-------
You go to bed early. Because it’s safer that way.
In sleep, you can’t open the game. Can’t look too long at those renamed blocks.
But tonight, your dream is just... Minecraft.
Flatlands. Empty. No mobs. Just you walking endlessly over grass.
And every time you try to place a block, it crumbles to dust.
Every time you jump, you fall just a bit slower than usual.
And you can feel it watching.
You look up.
The sky is blank. But there's a single particle—
like smoke—
just hanging there. Moving against the wind.
------------------------------------‐-------------------
You wake up with your mouse on the floor.
You don’t remember using it.
But the game isn’t open. Not yet.
You check your Recent Files just to be sure.
One’s been modified overnight. Not a Minecraft file. A screenshot. Of your shack. With you standing in front of it. Facing the camera.
You never took that picture.
And you’re not looking at the camera.
You’re looking past it.

The Broken Script: A Null x Reader fanfic
HorrorA/N: This is basically just a random fanfic I wanted to write cause I wanted to test out this style of writing. I made it an x OC because it is much easier for me to write and visualise it that way. If there are enough requests, I can change it into...
