The Itch Invasion
There’s probably no more satisfying pleasure than to be able to blitz an itch. The occasional scratch enlivened Norman’s life and he always looked forward to the next one but one day he had two and he didn’t know which one to scratch first. The next day he had three, four, five..they were multiplying. Soon his whole body was covered in flaming itches that were too hot to quell.
The dermatologist recommended UVB Light Therapy but said he would need to protect his necessaries. Norman’s sister-in-law solved the problem by knitting him a Willy warmer… made to measure.

Haha! There is such short-lived but incredible satisfaction from the first scratch of an itch. But one scratch of those evil itches prompts an even more pressing need to scratch, harder. Suffering one night, I stupidly started to scratch... and scratch.. and scratch... the scratches getting harder each time until.... Until I started to wonder... what if I ended up scratching so hard so much that I scratched the skin away and started on my exposed flesh! At that point I stopped scratching and started planning a story around the desperate need to scratch. It’s here on Drablr, it’s quite gritty, but it started with an itch!
