Not too many jobs in the winter, and it seems like everyone and their brother got hired to do this place. >But, man almighty, this is one of the weirdest jobs you’ve ever had to do. >Everything’s flat and level, and all the buildings have foam walls on the lower half >All the outlets are covered by spring loaded outdoor enclosure, even the wall outlets in offices. >And everything is conduits. Not a scrap of wire left behind the walls without shielding. >Something about "Wall spaghetti" whatever that means. >A bit odd, but the customer gets what they want. >Today, you’re finishing the high voltage lines coming in from the substation that the city put in for this place. >All that sweet nuclear power coming from Perry just warms your heart. >Looks like everything checks out here, and it’s about time to throw the switch. >One last check for anything left in the substation. Ladders, tools, lunch boxes… >”Hi mistah! Nummies?” >Fluffy ponies… >You briefly consider flipping the switch anyway and letting the critter roast, but your kid has one of these things and they’re not all bad. >Instead you pick him up by the scruff and hold him to eye level. >”Nuuu!” he squeals, furiously pedaling his legs in the air. “Dun huwt fwuffy!” >”You realize how dangerous places like this are?” you ask the ball of fluff. You turn him back to the substation, then back to your face. >“You would have been vaporized. Annihilated. Exploded.” >”Esp-wode?” says the fluffy. “Wha dat? Soun fun! Fwuffy wan espwode!” >You really don’t have time to argue with a fluffy pony, so you set him down on the ground and boot his fluffy butt away from the substation. >”You big meanie munster!” whines the fluffy. “Jus wan nummies!” >”Yeah, well I want a blow job,” you retort. “You can’t everything you want. Now scram.” >The fluffy blows a raspberry at you and wanders off across the muddy plain. >After locking the fence, you pick up your cell phone and give the power station a call. >”Yeah, we’re ready here,” you tell the station. “Area’s clear, secure, and ready for power.” >You’ve been doing this job for as long as you’d care to remember, and you still get a thrill every time you get to power one of these beasts up. >It’d be better if that fluffy wasn’t tugging on your pant leg. >”I thought I told you to get lost.” >”No get in metaw pwace!” he says. >”Stay out of there, you idiot!” you reply. “Did you want to die?” >”Bu hewd in dere!” he says. >…wat. >Actually, watt. A whole heaping few thousand kilowatts power through the station with the force of a trillion electrons just aching to do work >It’s only a moment before the screams of a dozen ferals reaches your ears and the stench of burnt fluff reaches your nose. >Spells like rabbit, actually. >Luckily, these newer substations are fault tolerant for such things. >A small pop sends four flaming foals from somewhere within the substation. >One lands at your feet, chriping and crying as it tries to escape the flames. >”Fieh no gud fow babehs! Fwuffy gif hugs! Put dem out!” >The fluffy launches himself over to it and tries to hug the flaming foal. >Smothering flames with your body doesn’t work when you’re covered in flammable material. >The fluffy is soon engulfed in a flames of his own. >Instead of running in panic, he simply sits down and stares up at you. >What a serene little fluffy; accepting death like a Buddhist monk. >”Dis onwy da beginin’" he says, as the flames ignite the fat beneath his skin. >”Da end wiww come fow us aww.” >…this fluffy is apparently receiving some sort of enlightenment on his pyre. >”It wiww end da onwy way it can,” he continues, as the flesh melts from his face. <“Fwuffies wiww dwon in da fiehs, an earfs, and wa-was. Aww faww down. Aww wiww pewish." >The charred body of the fluffy slumps to the ground and falls silent >Freakin’ spooky. >”Yo! Donnie! What’s the hold up?” calls your co-worker. “Help us get this shit wired. I’m freezing!” >You walk away, but can't help looking back at the charred fluffy staring back at you with empty eyesockets. >Freakin’ spooky
