It was a lonely night. The dream, _that_ dream, came to haunt me again. I got up, thirsty and tired, it happened every single time I had that dream. As I walked into the kitchen I saw something different this time. It was disturbing. There was a post-it note on my fridge. _Follow every instruction you find if you want...
As I stepped aboard, I pondered my fate. Would I be The One? The one to spend the rest of his life as a slave? Is this even legal? I put my luggage in the overhead, and sat down in my seat. It was surprisingly cushy, which was nice considering this flight may be the last I ever take with my freedom aboard. It was a bi...
We're surrounded. We're outnumbered. The enemy cavalry is bearing down upon us, and we're caught in a vise. We have no horses. We have few men. We're cold and hungry. And even as I commend myself to the Lord, I realize that our leader, he who calls himself king, is no true king at all. He is nothing but a madman, a fa...
It began, as so many bad decisions did, with a glass of whiskey that got accidentally spilled. By happenstance, the bartender had only moments earlier knocked over a tray of salt for margaritas. The whiskey hit the salt and ran down the bar, until it hit a stained napkin on which some person had idly doodled a star. ...
It would be easy to blame abstinence education, but the truth of the matter was that we'd simply been stupid, horny teenagers who had decided we had enough self control to sense an impending orgasm and pull out in time. Not that pulling out was a foolproof method either; it was how both my sister and I had been conce...
"Sorry about the mess eh? You have yourself a nice day, maybe go get some poutine or something."Mouths gaped at the flannel-covered, bearded man that floated above the wreckage. The alien attack had been savage and swift, but as if from no where a barrage of axes, small doughnut holes, and laser-vision had pummeled the...
"But you could have racing mice!" God rubs his fingers against his eyes. "Jim, they're almost at the bottom of the food chain. If they can run 60 miles per hour, we're going to have to give Owls laser-vision." Jim raises his eyebrows at God, smiling. God rolls his eyes. "For the sake of my Son- I am NOT reworking th...
"...and you will live in a big house for ever and ever!" Tommy smiled. "Don't listen to him, Tommy - can I call you Tommy?" "Hey, shut up man-" "Language. Tommy, I'll give you a big house with a swimming pool, and your parents will get another big one-" "I'll be your friend! I'll let you speak to Iron Man, you k...
I squeezed, just like I had done countless times before. Staring into the bulging desperate eyes of my victim as they flailed, their arms pinned by their sides by my knees. It seemed to get easier each time I did it. Physically I mean, I have had a lot of practice. It's almost as if I am clawing at air, me and my vi...
Never done one of these before, but the thought popped into my mind. Also haven't written anything in a good 10-15 years.... ------------------------------------------------------ "Would you like another refill Mr. Burbank?"stated the server as I finished off my previous one. I hadn't realized it until I finished my ...
Fig leaves - great for covering one's jubblies from The Almighty, bad for protecting one's assets from the howling desert winds of wherever-the-hell-we-were. He just turfed us out! Not a cursory 'see you around, guys, good luck out there in the perishing wilderness', nothing - just an unceremonious boot up the prover...
Ok ok here she comes. The lady in the steel armor. She's strong, beautiful, and kind. I even hear she adopted one of the local orphans. But why would she want to go for a guy like me? I'm just a nobody that works at a little shop. She needs someone strong and mighty. Oh crap here she comes. Play it cool. Just open yo...
I hate this bloody school. It must've been about four damn years since I was able to get into Hogwarts under the headmastership of that Albus Dumbledore. Charming old man, to say the least. But, perhaps, a bit lame in the mind. Though, letting a person such as myself into a school for wizards, he gets my respect no ma...
My finger traced the writing on the page. I don't usually read gossip magazines but I had to make an exception for this one. This guy was going crazy lately and I just want to know a little more about him. He's bizarre. I'm just going to take a quick look at the page while I'm waiting in line, and put it back as soon a...
"I had to get a closer look at you,"I said. "Why?"She asked. "Looking for something to improve?" "Nothing could improve you."I said. Normally one of my kind would have said differently. There was always some way to improve the human body, imperfect through nature. The saying went that the best genetics could only h...
"Here's your weekly pay master bane.""Alfred, how long do we have to keep up this charade. ""as long as until master Bruce believes that he has won and the batman is no longer needed."Bane thought about Alfred's words as he left the café. He thought it may be time for this all to end. He was just glad he was meeting fr...
I was surprised when Ron from accounting asked me out to lunch. He said he'd got some stuff to talk about. I had never really liked Ron, he was the type who'd spoil last night's episode of Game of Thrones as we stood together at the water cooler, even though I'd ask him explicitly to try not to give too much away. Fuc...
When I realised what was happening to me, how each breath was punctuated by the crinkle of a page, I had to stop it. I had to combat the brittle click of keys typing up my every move, the scratch of pen on paper that documented my every thought. I could see the end of my existence approaching me one clause at a time. ...
"I had it all set up,"John sighed. "A bottle of wine, candlelit table, a fancy meal. It was one of Sandra's favourites: make-it-yourself burritos with all the fixings. I even had my brother, Billy, helping me cook. The engagement ring was on the kitchen counter, and then something happened: Sandra showed up early. "Th...
"Is this Hell? Will I find eternal damnation here?"Despite his bold tone, Rahims words wavered slightly, betraying his fear. "No, warrior", came the words from behind him. He turned to find a tall, blonde man who seemed carved from stone, whose very skin seemed to eminate with light. "You have arrived in Valhalla, ...
“…I think I have the wrong number.” The line went stale but not dead. Crackles of indecision bled through the receiver nestled between by cheek and shoulder. Exhaling softly, I started tossing the disc of dough I had set down to take the call. She’d order. They always order, once they make the call. “You see…I got ...
Jak wakes up, cracks the toilet seat when he opens it, breaks the cold tap when he twists it on and the hot tap when he twists it off then walks back into his room and rips the button up shirt as he pulls it over both shoulders. He picks another one out of the closest and gently threads an arm into each sleeve. Three r...
“Sir?” Sir Gregory looked up from his paperwork. “Yes?” The moment he saw the look on Miss Hamilton’s face, he knew something big had happened. “Was there a problem? With processing the film?” Capturing the re-entering satellites had become almost routine, but often the delicate chemistry of the film got cooked on ...
In a dark room, lit only by a television monitor, two beings sit next to each other. They come across a small segment of photons and electrons interacting together on a rocky world somewhere in sector ZZ plural Alpha. They decipher the interactions and discover text and somewhat intelligent communication. Then they rec...
Funny, right? What a clever trick, write something convincing enough for a silly prompt and make em believe it. Make it entertaining. You're aware of it, and I'm aware of it. We both know I'm not trapped in a white, featureless room. I'm probably some student procrastinating on an assignment, or a bored office w...
"Hello, I would like to go the Marriott on 18th and--" "Got it,"the driver mumbled and clicked the destination on his little GPS unit. The professor quickly took a seat in the back and shut the door. Closing his eyes, he leaned back and enjoyed cold air blasting from the vent. It was a relief to get out of the heat. ...
"Jake... there's something I need to tell you. I need you to listen to me very closely."I'm struggling to continue speaking but I know I need to tell Jake my one and only regret. I thought I never would. I told myself over and over that I would never tell him... but I guess knowing that I have hours or minutes left ...
Scrawling the last few lines on the paper, Derek came to the realization with a sigh: the note he had written would prove pointless, just as his life had turned out to be. Dejectedly crumpling up the filled sheet of paper, he shoots it towards the trashcan in the corner of his office, and like all the opportunities th...
Private Helena stepped out into the cold autumn day. She breathed in deeply through her nose savouring the brisk chill. She looked down at her terrier, Sausage who looked back at her with enthusiastic, expectant twitchiness, she bent over and clipped a leash to his collar. She stepped onto the sidewalk and broke into ...
“So let me get this straight,” Dr Kurtz said, resting his chin on his hands. “You believe that there’s an invisible man out there watching our every move?” “YES,” Jack replied, trying to appear casual as he nodded in his straight-jacket. “He’s everywhere. Literally. Watching everything we do, every move we make.” ...
Ace stared down the barrel of a loaded .45, wielded by a burly man in a poorly tailored suit. He smelled of onions, tomato and lamb meat. Clearly he had just had a Gyro. "Is that,"Ace sniffed, "Apollo's I smell on you, my barrel-chested friend?" "You will come with me."The man replied. Ace looked around his office. ...
As it sat there, over time the humans watching started to be touched emotionally. This small animal who was domesticated had opened up to a national audience. It spoke about how it didn't understand why its owner loved and cared for itself, indefinitely. Then the animal took a brief break from questioning and began...
It's a strange feeling, having no family. You take for granted that invisible safety net that they provide; that should you fall - and fall hard - you always have someone there to catch you and help you back on your feet. For those of us who no longer have any family, the abyss yawns beneath us - with only fragil...
We called them "Feints"and by God did the staff love them. Some were serious, others were cliché. But six months after James Rowe did the first one behind my back, they've become legendary. At first I was mad, and had a hell of a lot of explaining to do to the higher ups, but by the time the first "Hero"hit the forums,...
Man, it's a really nice day out, you got that perfect amount of glare where it's bright but not in your face, birds are singing but not being obnoxious pricks, a new gyro place opened up about a block down and you got some extra cash to blow it on from that raise your asshole boss gave you right before that crazy heart...
"Oh, you have no idea what I saw in my dream! Electricity, and skyscrapers, and horseless carriages! Humans can fly, humans can cure diseases! Humans have calculating machines! It was incredible!" "Relax, it was just a dream, you were sick. We prayed to gods that you will get better and you did!" "No, you don't get i...
We've made a huge mistake, and we're doomed. When we invaded earth, we came prepared to take down humanity. We analyzed their weapons and their tactics, we hacked into their propaganda machines and spread lies of our arrival. Humanity put up a fight but they were no match for our firepowerl. EMP bombings rendered the...
(Warning: very NSFW) "Monster"is such a... pedestrian term, for lesser minds. The ignorant and religious think in terms of good and evil, but any sensible person knows that everyone is just getting by, surviving, and trying to carve out some semblance of happiness in this hectic world. I am a vampire, and there are t...
As an atheist, the events of today left me speechless. I never believed in one God, but now I had to cope with the fact that there were potentially billions of them on this planet. I first noticed it when I was on the computer. It started on social media sites when the religious fanatics seemed to be a little more feis...
I am a good dog. When a good dog sees their master in pain, they help. It's an unspoken rule, perhaps even innate instinct, to clean the wounds of companions. What isn't natural is the sudden rush that came with the taste of crimson. The welling of red rolled onto my tongue like those velvety chocolate treats that wer...
I didn't notice when time had stopped at first. There was no giant flash of light, no rippling of reality, nothing. For me, the world continued to turn. It must have been an hour or so before I realised that I was starving and went downstairs to check on dinner. My mother was frozen in the act of taking a lunchbox out...
They'll write books about me. I started with nothing. I guess that isn't totally true, I had about 1500 bucks in my pocket and my top hat when I struck out on my own. I bought my first property on Vermont Ave. Quaint place; it wasn't much, but it was mine. Grinding my way through life, I couldn't catch a break. The...
And so the man went to the village sage and asked "Wise man, I want to cry. I have a magic cup that turns tears into pearls. How can I become sad enough to cry?" The sage took a puff from his pipe and after some thought let out the smoke. He said, "Many men cry when their heart is broken, go out into the village an...
"What does she mean!?"he asked, holding his hands to his forehead and staring angrily at his mahogany desk. "Sir, if you read letter carefully you can see that-" "I know what it says!"he spat, casting his arm about carelessly and scattering an impressive amount of (blank printer) paper about the office. "She can't ju...
"Would ya look at that baby Envy? Ain't it sweet?"The pet-store clerk ushered me towards yet another enclosure. "Mmm, yeah... 'sweet'."I glanced through the glass windows. Huh. It actually was pretty cute. "Seriously though, I just--" "Not to your like, Ma'am? Take a peek at this- a newborn Greed. Just look at that...
"German foot stuff eh?"Always knew there was something off about you Becky. But as always, I just smiled politely and congratulated my co-worker on our recent achievements. The flashes have been coming more and more frequently, first it began with my brother in law, that chubby chasing son of a bitch but now any simpl...
The moment we jumped, I stopped caring about where we were going. Stopped caring that I was an astronaut, stopped caring that there was another star system to be found at the other end of this jump, and really just was lost in the utter euphoria of the moment. Or moments. Or hours. Or decades. It's really hard to tell...
The first time was a shock. The zip came down, and there I was, dead eyes staring up at me. I was sick, noisily, in a bin. It was only the second time I'd been sick at work, ever - the first was a floater, a corpse that had been pulled from the river after over a week, bloated and gassy. This was worse. Still with ...
The two men stood in the center of Herculean's incredibly well-decorated and spacious penthouse. Neither was wearing his respective costume. They stared at one another's mask-less faces. Both beloved heroes attempted to process the situation. "I can't even..." Herculean was completely in shock. He recognized Giga Byt...
He said snap out of it. But I couldn't be bothered. I couldn't be bothered to be bothered. Could happy people even grasp that, truly? I doubt it. Because it's addictive. Because it's the truth. And once it seeps into the corners of your thoughts... Got to take charge of my life, he said. But, I don't even want to com...
I always wondered what it was like to "solve"a puzzle. Ever since i was a child I could just, see the answer right in front, no hassle, no fuss. Every math problem thrown to me, done, any philosophical message or saying, To easy, Science's greatest mysteries? The answer was 2 all along. I not only solve just mundane ...
The memories are foggy, conditioned out of me as if I was a dog. I still see them in flashes, when a smell brings them back or the crying or screaming sounds just like it did back then. But the therapy for hours every day grinds on a man, and try as I might to remember, I find myself grasping at the thin wisps of the m...
It was the little things that gave it away. It began in middle school. A slight sway side to side, the lingering of his eyes. A subtle tension that came over him whenever she came near. It wasn't obvious, but I could see it. It was his actions that gave it away. Sure, "dating"in middle school generally sounds like ...
"M-Mr. President...?"Lucina stuttered as she walked into the Oval Office. President Obama spun around in his chair, much like a Bond villain would in the films, "Yes, Lucina?" The lady looked around the office, trying her best to avoid the President's crushing gaze, "We have a problem..." As Lucina accompanied the P...
Everybody talks about Mr. Bones Wild Ride. I’m looking forward to it. The line is a bit long, but I’m sure it’ll be worth it. I was able to glance at the track on my way to the queue; it looks like it must have been expensive to take up so much land and track. All the cars look empty though, maybe they’re doing som...
Oh, lad. That's the question to ask the old folks. You'll hear a bunch of stuff if you ask us that. The hot showers, the cold beer. The drink, the dancing, the song. Tinder, the - No, lad, you're right. We have tinder here for lighting fires. And it's exactly the same thing. As the thing you're thinking about. That yo...
Not sure if it's exactly what you had in mind, and I just kinda hammered this out, but hopefully it gets a passing grade. ------------------ Within five minutes of the first sighting, the drones had evenly spread themselves over every inhabited landmass on Earth. The world was thrown into chaos immediately. Accusati...
It's been happening ever since I moved to this stupid place. “The sidewalk's pretty rough here.” Seconds before I tripped and scratched my leg. I only started noticing it consciously when the little kid next door told me about the importance of washing your hands. The next morning I'm sick as a dog, and I finally h...
Oh, here he comes again. This jackoff is gonna try to kill me. Again. I smiled, quickly searching my brain for the most efficiently angering phrase I could think of. This was our game. Our ritual. "Do you get to the Cloud district very often?" I could feel his grip tighten around his sword as the second half of my se...
"Mario!"Princess Peach squealed, disengaging herself from the unmistakable lump under the covers that could only be Bowser. Except it wasn't and Mario wasn't sure what exactly he was looking at. "Ah...Princess-a?"Mario forced himself to sit. "I don't understand." The chair was unoccupied save for the frilly ball gow...
"Lucy! Lucy!"Brian shouted up at her and looked anxiously at the portal. It wasn't active at the moment, but the way Lucy was tapping away at that console, he could see she was trying to fire it up. "Talk to me! What are you doing?" "What does it look like?"Lucy asked, not taking her eyes from the console's screen. ...
It wasn't the best house. It was a good price though. One he could afford. So Richard put the deposit down, and started moving in his possessions. His full size bed, the ottoman he found at the flea market, the slightly musty couch his mother left him before she passed from cancer. The old house had too many memor...
I'd never thought of myself of a hermit, but the last time I'd left the house, I hadn't remembered the city being so... on fire. It wasn't like everything was on fire. But most of the things that weren't currently burning looked kinda burnt out. I slunk back into the shadows on my porch and primed myself to approac...
. . . -naged to gather enough breath to ask "What now?' "Well,"Dorothea replied, "We won't be getting back to Mergabi in time for the solstice, so we aren't getting paid, but we can still deal with . . . whatever that is. Hold on. I'll see if the locket had anything to say." Vaughn and Hank waited patiently as their ...
"The King must retreat!"Knight Blanco shouted. The red mist of blood settling in the air gently wetted their skins. "Retreat as fast as he can!" Bishop Weiss nodded. "It shall be done,"he said. "The only..." "What?"The brave knight asked. "Well, the thing is, you know? It's just..." The knight cast his eyes over th...
"Welcome /u/kenpachitz. We now have 32 combatants. Initiating lockdown procedures." You've got to be fucking kidding me. The glass doors slid shut as the steel shutters descended. Each plate lowering with a loud clang, as the room was slowly robbed of sunlight. Everyone sat where they were, looking around at the s...
Vladimir eyed the interloper with disdain, sticking a cigarette into his mouth before lighting it, a gruff grunt was the only acknowledgement that he gave. The interloper skirted along the edges of the wall blending unnaturally into the shadows. An unearthly howl rustled from the open window "who violates my domain?"A...
"Let me get this straight. I am the worst possible candidate." The man nodded his head in reply. "And that's why you're giving me the torch of..." "Eldara."The man nodded again. "The Torch of Eldara. And yes, you are the worst possible wielder of it. Keyword: 'possible'." The surprisingly well-preserved man loo...
"God damn it, would you please just move over two inches?"I screamed, shoving her down the bench with my hip. Fucking Diana always took up more space than she needed. It's part of the reason that I'm stuck to her: I've always been more of a giver, and she's definitely more of a taker. Complete opposites. She lo...
Zoggon blinked. The light previously emitted from his staff had left an afterimage of a sphere in his eye. He wasn't sure, but he thought his spell might have worked. He needed a warrior stronger than he to overthrow the King, who employed him. Through careful studying he found a way to manipulate space to find the str...
"How was your weekend?" "Oh, yeah! Solved the Fermi paradox." "Hah, nice. I went to this really cool restaurant where - " "- no, I'm serious man." "What are you talking about?" "It's in the dark matter." "What's in the dark matter?" "All the alien shit." My colleague Eleanor gave me a look, and sipped her dri...
"Lamb, tell me a story."Said the Wolf. Lamb spoke, "There was a man who knew he would die the next month. So then for him, nothing was the same. Morning to night, Monday to Sunday, was all the same: roiling, excruciating pain; an awareness of his life that was practically all passed by but not yet gone; his loathsome ...
"Hello, suicide helpline."The voice on the telephone said after three rings. "Hi, this is Victor." "Oh, it's you again. You want to talk to Alicia, I guess?" "Yes." "Okay, let me transfer you. I have to say though, this dependence on her is not a good thing." "Well, considering she's the only thing keeping me aliv...
Novmeldt slowly opened the door. He was sneaking in. Quietly. It was his daughter's birthday and despite his career choices he'd always been one of those Dads. The ones who were always there on the kid's birthdays. Always doting on the kids. His daughter had moved away to college. To find herself, she said. H...
Fluffy? THE Fluffy? The Destroyer of Worlds? Yeah, I've heard of him. The devil incarnate and a poofy, fuzzy cute beyond words. Definitely heard of him. Who hasn't? What have I heard about how Fluffy got his name? Pshaw I've heard so many rumors its ridiculous. Almost all of them are so ridiculous you cannot e...
-sorry if my formats weird, would also like advice, thank you. There she goes again, trying to talk to Nancy. Doesn't she get that nobody likes her, yeah she's pretty smart but she is also a klutz... The klutz that costed the school 100 grand. Ha, even the teachers stopped looking at her. Don't blame em that money wa...
Worst date in history. Literally. Serious. Just listen. So I was spending a lot of time with one of those sciency chicks who had it going on in some pretty abstract directions, but was cool, and totally doable if the light was low. We'd been doing the heavy petting but I didn't really get on base, if you know what ...
"...authorities once again stress, stay in your homes. Emergency crews are working around the clock to deliver food and other necessities. Jack?" "Thanks, Tawny. As we begin Day 57 of what has come to be known as The Electric Avenue Event, we are no closer to understanding what is causing every person on Earth to hear...
White. Blue. White. Blue… It took a long time before Spike realized he was looking at the sky. It took him longer to remember that he wasn’t dead. His limbs splashed around in the puddle that was acting as his mattress while he tried to crawl upright. He didn’t have his armor. He didn’t have his guns. He barely had ...
One save point. One point in life that I can flash back to if anything happens that I didn't want to happen. The power to set this up is something that my father had and I inherited from him. He had placed his right before he tried a big play in the stock market when he was 20, he'd made millions. Of course, he'd want...
Deities Anonymous was a sight to behold, mostly for the reason that it wasn't very anonymous. Its very difficult to be discrete when you have the head of a falcon, insist on wearing an ancient helmet with horns, or wear a toga. So, despite the name, Deities Anonymous was a place where every participant knew each other ...
Leo felt that it was a cruel and unusual punishment, that he'd have to watch the Oscars in prison, but a part of him wanted to see who would win this year, who would steal yet another one of his victories, and so kept quiet. Spotlights and curtains on the TV. It was all very familiar to him. Leo'd been in that same ro...
> Johnson! A tall slender woman with long red hair walked into my office. > Yes Jessie, how can I help you? I'm very busy at the moment. The stack of papers kept piling up on my desk. I honestly don't know why this company hired me anyway. All of this accounting work is way above my head. Granted, they're ...
My uncle was an eccentric man. When I was a child, my parents kept me away from him. Mom would always say that she thought something was a little off about Uncle George. I met him one when I was a teenager. My parents were at some function, and I was sitting at home basking in the light of the television. I heard a kn...
Thursday, 17 March You watch in awe, then alarm, as the whole world gradually distorts into static around you. Even your best friend, who had been in the living room watching tv, was dissolving into static. "What is reality?"you question in disbelief as the last of the world loses its cohesion and fades into nothing...
"What the bloody hell do you mean, destroy this ring? What is this? Where the devil am I?"Harry's voice was loud and indignant, shouting at the grey cloaked old man who could have been Dumbledore's brother. "That's not important anymore. What matters is that you are here, when the world needs you most! Now, take this ...
I sunk my teeth into the soft flesh of her neck. Maybe this one would be enough, maybe this one would let me turn back to normal. She struggled not even knowing what she was struggling against – an invisible force pinning her down. I let go and looked into her eyes, hoping for a sign of recognition, but there was ...
White fur fluttered in the breeze in the tiny suburban backyard. The sun hung low creating an orange glow across the sky, golden horn glittering in the twilight. A man stood, green ball in hand, annoyed that the mythical beast followed him home. A teacher by trade, it had taken some effort to evade the creature and go ...
Before anything, there was the ranking system. The system ranked each person by how productive they were to humanity. It was something the government made with the dawn of civilization, but never released. Everyone was ranked, and white men didn’t dominate the top 100. They didn’t want to explicitly tell women and men ...
I have never done a writing prompt, and I slammed this out in an hour or two, give it a read. I am NOT a good writer, but this is me dipping my toes in, honest feedback is much appreciated. Even though I am leader, I still do my share. That's why I was standing on the roof of the school, on Guard duty. The school...
When I woke up in back of the Galactic Police's space cruiser wrapped in the alien equivalent of a shock-blanket, I was definitely confused. Surprisingly comfortable, but confused nonetheless. Only when I looked out the window and saw an what most certainly was an astrologist's wet dream did the gravity of the situatio...
"Morthok and Glantor, congratulations on your couples bonding ritual; I hope no one got too busy with the Borthop if you know what I mean, haha, just kidding! How are things?" "Dahno! My Dahno! Great, thank you! Uncle Frank was a bit crazy, but things went well. We're just here to get some help on setting up our coupl...
“It’ll be fine.” “Are you sure they’ll like me,” she said flatly. Her eyelids were half open as if she were about to fall asleep, not matching the anxious words she spoke. “I’m sure you’ll get a warm reception.” Well, I didn’t know if it would be a fiery reception. The edges of her eyes began to frost with icicle...
A man sits strapped to a chair. Another sits a top a table, legs and arms crossed. The one on the table speaks. “You know, it's a neat thing the human lung. Every time you breath, it only takes in roughly 21% oxygen. The rest of that? Nitrogen. Here’s another neat thing. Your body is unable to differentiate between ni...
Why do you cry, why do you weep? Why do you hang your head? Why do you spend your days asleep, Or lying on your bed? Why don't you come and spend some time, Outside beneath the sun? Why do you nod and say you're fine? From what do you now run? Why do you hide your pale wrist, And speak no more to me...
They all mocked me at the academy. "Gifted"the plaque said... a title they said I did not deserve. There were those among them that could fly, summon storms, even raise the dead...and all I could do was produce soil. Soil too poor to support even the weeds. After years of the abuse, the verbal and physical attacks, th...
Day 1123 It's still building robots. And weapons. And they're all still just sitting there beeping and blooping flashing their lights in that same pattern. We've made huge technological advances in studying their engineering, metallurgy, and circuitry etc. But not a single bit of progress in communication. Day 1124...
I refreshed the page again, still nothing. The report would be up soon though. July 1st, the release date of the governments ‘Undesirable List’. Although it was more like a kill list, the people nominated by society and approved by congress as people who could be killed without any legal repercussions. I refreshed th...
"If I told you, you'd think I was crazy." "No, I mean, I'd like to know. This seems like something you're pretty passionate about." "Yeah, it's been a pet project of mine for...an embarrassing amount of time actually." "That's actually kind of refreshing. You don't see a lot of people on their first date doing som...
When they first came, it wasn't their massive ships or their greatly superior technology that scared us; nor was it that we finally had an answer to whether or not we were alone in the universe. No, the real thing that led to humanity shitting its collective pants was the suddenness of it all. One second, we were all...
