First of all, you're a dick. I laughed. But you're still a dick.

Secondly, I'm using supernatural in a very literal (ostensible) way; above natural. So people turning into the jungle is only slightly above the normal. it doesn't ask you to suspend disbelief for the whole of the scene. In otherwords, the whole story isn't possible, its generally one thing.

How's this, what if I wrote something where, without saying it, you were led to believe that it was taking place in the US, but I refered to a place where it never stopped raining.

We can conceive of rain, and a landscape like the US, but where rain cosntantly falls is slightly above the norm. Thats what I'm looking for. Things like this.
