I have a character concept I'm considering - the utter basics are that he's a mail carrier, and also can see the near future.

While delivering mail, he will occasionally get visions - creepy visions of bad things that are going to happen. They're basically universally bad. Someone leaving a window open and an animal getting in. A ceiling fan falling. Someone forgetting the stove and starting a fire.

So, rather than letting them come true, he leaves warnings. They're polite, and to the point, and unsigned - so, fairly creepy. But they're also, one way or another, true. They can certainly be avoided (You might double check the window, or make sure the ceiling fan is okay, or be more mindful of the stove because you were warned), but if the person doesn't take action, that's what'll happen.

Before I commit to this, I basically wanted to see if anyone was interested, or could work this into their own plots.

:posing:

ALRIGHT KIDS HE'S READY HERE WE GO.

I need to know A) Who you want to get a creepy letter, B) Where they live (house/dorm/apartment), C) If you've got any ideas for how things can go down.

They might want to try and figure out who is sending the creepy messages, they might wait to see if it comes true, etcetc. In some cases there might not even be a thread directly between Emil and your character - there might just be aftermath of a creepy note, which is fine too.

:3c Let me know what you want to do.

NAH he doesn't even sign them. Like, the entire message is on a folded piece of paper that says in fairly neat writing what the vision was, and nothing else.

PLS EXPLAIN your idea. Also all mail mistakes are clearly not Emil's fault, someone must have mislabelled the mail boxes or something.
