Okay, so last night I had a pretty strange dream. In the the dream, I was at a house with a bunch of other people, when a man came in with a huge trunk. He opened the trunk, and furniture popped out - and creatures I can only describe as shadow-spiders, basically a ball of darkness with little tendrils that it used like legs.
I backed up, and said, "I'm afraid of those shadow-things."
As if attracted by the sound of my voice, one of the shadow-spiders leaped towards me, with shadow fangs ready to strike.
And I caught it, and destroyed it with a blaze of light that emanated out of my hands.
I looked at my hands in shock, and then said, "I guess I'm not afraid of the shadow-things."
Then the shadow-spiders attacked a young woman, and I fired a bolt of light to protect her.
The shadow-spiders spewed out a wave of darkness, trying to keep me from seeing the girl, but I just made my bolts of light wider and brighter.
I had just forced them to retreat when the dream ended.

This sounds like a very nice start on a 'just for fun' short(-short) story.
We were afraid this might happen
You're starting to remember that you actually a mighty
Kree warrior from the planet Hala who is known
throughout the quadrant as Captain Marvel.
(Also your cat isn't really a cat, she's a flerkin...)
What borders on stupidity?
Canada and Mexico.

giggles, laika
thanks for the smile.
I'd have thought
that you would have sparkly pink girly powers Dot.
If your flerkin has flerkittens can I have one?

Don't take me too seriously. I'm just kitten around. :3
you're thinking of Jaci
she is the source of the girl germs, after all.
Your shadow-things
Your description above immediately brought to mind a memory. In one of my favorite movies of all time, "My Neighbor Totoro", there exist creatures which look much as you describe.
In Japanese culture these are not malevolent, though, they tend to hide from humans and can often only be seen by young children. They are like small balls of soot, tennis ball sized or slightly smaller, with wispy tentacles as you describe.
Any chance you may have a memory of seeing something like this?

I dont think so, Penny
there wasnt a lot of Japanese anime available in Canada when I was a kid, or not much I would have seen since I mostly watched American cartoons. Plus, the ones in my dream were anything but shy. I haven t seen the movie you referred to, but it looks cool.
