Out Of Your Mind - May

"But I don't have to talk to you, do I?I can just... feel. And you'll feel it right here, too. Right. You can't see me. Can't see me. See me! All I want... is see me."

All May wants is a friend. As a child, her overbearing, perfectionist mother tried to conceal her daughter's imperfection of a lazy eye, but kids can be cruel and May would be outcast from the start.

Years later, living alone and employed as a veterinary nurse, she spends her leisure time sewing her own garments alongside her only friend Suzy. Except Suzy is an inanimate object, a glass boxed up, spooky looking doll handed down by May's mother. Until now, Suzy has been loyal and by May's lonely side, but May now needs more. She needs the comfort of another, living, breathing, warm human body of a companion.

She has set her eyes on local mechanic Adam, a man who works with his hands, a specific part of his body that May has fixated on.

There is also May's colleague, the flirtatious Polly, whom May has observed as having a "beautiful neck".

As time goes on, May will experience the companionship and intimacy with another human being she has long desired. However, she is so socially awkward, with just too much of a dark side for others to handle, and as quickly as she felt their love and friendship, they abandon her. Even a local punk, who by all appearances would be a great match for May's oddities, isn't down with her macabre decension into the madness that loneliness and being let down by others can drive a person to.

She soon becomes an unhinged murderer, taking out those who betrayed her and taking their most valuable body parts with her: Adam's hands; Polly's neck; and the rest to sew together her own Frankenstein's monster of a friend. One that can't leave, but also one that can't see her. May makes one final sacrifice and mutilates herself, plucking that lazy eye from her socket that caused her so much torment her whole life. Laying aside her anagrammed creation 'Amy', to spend her final moments in the arms of the closest, real friend she ever had.
