Today's thread is...
First line. Use the following line as the first line of your piece.

So there is a narrator and a sister, two characters to work with, the phobia of spiders as well as the acknowledgement that spiders are generally distasteful, and finally, the fact that their location has something to do with the phobia of spiders.
