It’s a quarter to midnight. I’m lying on my side in bed, on the verge of sleep. Something tickles my ear and I wonder vaguely if it’s some of my hair come loose from its plait. That sometimes happens.
Spoilers.
It’s not.
I swipe my hand gently across my ear and feel something light and wispy on my fingers for a moment. Sensing all is not quite right, I fumble around and turn my phone torch on, and look to see a fucking daddy-long-legs spider on the rug beside my bed looking confused as all heck, with all its spindly leggies splayed out in the ‘wtf was that about’ position, and its pea body dangling all pendulous in the middle.
He was ON MY EAR!!!
MY LIL SPIDER-FEARFUL BRAIN IS GONNA GIVE ME ALL MY CHILDHOOD SPIDER-SPECIFIC NIGHTMARES ALL OVER AGAIN!! You know the type…
*shudders and fails to sleep ever again*
…at least it wasn’t the big, hairy, brown house spider I shook out of my jumper this morning. She was a thicc lass, who could probably have bench pressed me if I’d stood still long enough after I discovered her.

@lishd submitted: Here's a polite grey house spider (I think?) that I met shortly after arriving to New Zealand. Specifically, I found him on my neck. Hence the politeness. :)
And the bulldog ant I found in Australia. He was almost an inch long and used his giant mandibles to steal my heart. ^_^
Yes sure looks like a grey house spider! Or one of the house spiders in the genus Badumna, at any rate. THAT ANT THO. They have stolen my heart with their enormous mandibles too. I am mentally giving them a little smooch...

While the family was watching the fireworks, I was enamored by this House Centipede and House Spider chilling together! Surprisingly, they tolerated each other’s presence, and stayed in their spots waiting for prey! I pity whatever poor bug finds themselves in this ambush.

Really like House Spider! Thanks for giving it to us! Also thanks for putting it on AO3 because even though I usually read your stuff on Tumblr it's easier to find it again later on AO3, and this definitely looks like one I'm gonna want to nostalgically reread in a few months or years.
(House Spider / AO3 link)
Look at me remembering to put a new fic on AO3!
jdsbjhsd I'm glad you liked it! I got this idea about "hey what if the hunter/prey dynamic was actually inverted between humans and ghosts" and specifically who Danny was in this dynamic.
And I'm always down for any "The Fentons are actually more terrifying than the ghosts" kind of narrative.
