I think it's important to note that this was originally going to be called "Notorious NOM-er, part I", but I decided that Narcoleptic was more fitting. Finally, I then realized that "Nocturnal" was more fitting--names are tricky these days.
So, I recently started summer school, and since I didn't want to pay lots of extra moneys to get my own room, I have gone with the notorious random roommate selection option! We will note that this has never really worked out in my favor, seeing how the last time I did this I got Nudist and Nose-Hair Guy (who, ironically enough, did not end up having an abundance of nose hairs). Well, this time, as per my luck, I got Nocturnal NOM-er (a.k.a Monstrous Muncher, Phantom Pheeder, or Aurum Vescitur, as well as any of the three names introduced in the first paragraph).
The Nocturnal NOM-er is a very wiley creature--appearing to be a very nice, well-mannered person during the day, it allures it's prey into a false sense of security until night falls, when it appears to go to sleep. However, it isn't really falling asleep so much as preparing for meal! It's true! I heard him! All night! Biting at the air, clashing it's teath in it's attempts to devour small morsels of... air. I was dreadfully afraid it might get up and bite me too (as well as keep me awake all night with it's infernal gnashing!), so I ran and hid to the couch in the living room! I barely escaped with my life!
However, not all injuries were avoided in this encounter: Sinistra Shoulder suffered much, as after we fled from the Phantom Pheeder, we had a tussle with a Cramped Couch.
Current Score: Monstrous Muncher: 1, Me: 0, Cramped Couch: -1. Stay tuned!
Note: scores start at 0, 1 is added for each victory, and 1 is subtracted for each loss. In this case, I have a score of 0 because while I lost and fled from Aurum Vescitur, I successfully defeated Cramped Couch.
By the way, bonus points to you if you know what Aurum Vescitur means!
