It was a dark, rainy night. Everyone in
- It was a dark, rainy night. Everyone in the village was asleep. There was silence all around, except for the occasional singing of an owl. But then, suddenly, there was a loud
- snap, as of some immense predator stepping on a fallen branch and breaking it, and all the village was certainly awake then, motionless and listening hard to the silence that
- came from the forest. Often the night would be punctuated by the call of crickets and mating frogs, but now, dead silence. The village then heard a giant whisper, "Sneaky, sneaky."
- The village residents were never more frightened or afraid... save for the intrepid child, Jesaija, who with swift feet, carried a torch into the forest like the IJN to Singapore.
- He knew how to forage and find food that was simply there. He also knew how to hunt and cook wild birds for survival. There was a sense of being in the void-unconfortable for most
- individuals, but he was a survivor. Prepping was his hobby, and he knew that his skills will be useful in the impending apocalypse that was going to happen. Pandemics with viruses
- , big bombs from airplanes. Tsunamis and earthquakes, Zombies in acid rain. These are a few of my favorite things!" He hummed to himself, dancing around his underground bunker.
- Goring, stirred by his master's ebullience, donned a dress and began twirling around the bunker singing:"The hills all have eyes with the sound of carnage!" The pair then tangoed
- around the room. Baobi tossed them roses which the both put in their teeth. Baobi started strumming his 13-tone fretted guitar and sang along. "My hands want to squeeze every throa
- -t that isn't yours," he crooned to the crowded club. "Your throat I want to pepper with kisses."

Ok this is annoying. It would be nice if I knew that I was finishing a story. Can’t tell with dormant ones!

Oh! I'm used to them being ten-folds each, and I remember there would be some kind of notice about it being the last fold so you had damn well better wrap it up!

I should add that I just added to a dormant fold, and there was a notice that mine would be the last fold. Things are formatted differently now, so you just have to be aware of that and look for that "last fold" notice. It might be a step too far to ask Noah to reintroduce the [blink] tag from 1993 or so. ;)

How did the [blink] tag work? What did it do?
