Dead Mice was the third story in the Bernice Summerfield anthology Something Changed. It was written by Joseph Lidster.
Summary
Braxiatel is confused, he keeps seeing alternate versions of the Collection. But something even more confusing happens, someone is walking around the collection, someone who he knows is dead. But he knows what's happening and Brax doesn't like it.
Characters
- Bernice Summerfield
- Irving Braxiatel
- Doggles
- Bev Tarrant
- Adrian Wall
- Jason Kane
- Wolsey
- Doctor Wt'hlm
References
- Jess Carter commits suicide in this alternate timeline.
- Braxiatel beats Jason to death with the Purpura Pawn.
- Parasiel is briefly mentioned being bored.
- For reasons unknown, Peter is the only one besides Braxiatel who knows that Wolsey is supposed to be dead.
Notes
- Like most of the other stories in this anthology, this story takes place in an altered timeline created by Doggles' history machine; these timelines are (mostly) erased when Braxiatel returns things to normal.
- This is the only other story besides Oh No It Isn't! in which Wolsey speaks, although this takes place in an alternate timeline and the cat's speech is likely Braxiatel's hallucination.
- This story marks the first appearance of Doctor Wt'hlm.
Continuity
- The migraines suffered by Jason and Adrian in this story are similar to the migraines caused by Braxiatel's hypnosis in The Mirror Effect.
