A while in I started thinking it might be a dream. :) Randomness coupled with alarm... should've reacted earlier! Ends with a nice twist though. Only thing that seems a bit weird are the joints, all round like that, like he may not be entirely human... and yeah, it's been a while! :D Welcome back! Definitely moving a few steps up from the stickfigure action (though that was fun too).
