My sister and I, coming back from some seedy (wonderful) bar in soho stumbled right onto a subway platform which, in hind sight, occupied a dimension other than the crazy 3rd one we were used to. Frightening female creatures armed with enough weaponry to put any medieval knight to shame caressed our hair, shoulders and other body parts while we sat frozen in fear. Why we hadn’t noticed anyone else on that platform at 2:00 am in the morning escaped our inebriated minds. Thankfully we weren’t whisked away to their world although I will admit my mind started to slip into the first stage of a self induced delirium. Needless to say, we avoided the subway in the wee hours after that episode, realizing that whoever was supposed to be manning the gates, purposely strode from his/her station so that the creatures of the other lands may come into our world and play.
