My dreams have been very insane lately. With multiple complicated plots and drama. It won't stop. I blame the egg.

The Human @humanhue.bsky.social · 23/04/2026

In regards to the previous post. That thing is apparently the Eldritch egg, hatched? Unhatched? It just grew limbs instead. I.. I don't know how this world works anymore. I don't need a lawyer, but the entity does.

030

The Human @humanhue.bsky.social · 23/04/2026

I don't. But unfortunately, the entity does. I'll repost the entry about it.

The Human @humanhue.bsky.social · 22/04/2026

I do not have the words for it right now. But this happened.

A black ink sketch of an anthropomorphic egg in a suit and tie, leaning against a wall with one finger raised, wearing an extremely self-satisfied grin. A speech bubble reads "I Heard You needed a lawyer." A sign on the wall beside him reads "DO NOT LEAN." He is leaning on it.

I want to scream. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. I really don't want to be here. I have no other options. This is what I've done.

030

The Human @humanhue.bsky.social · 16/04/2026

I'm stressed. I'm stressed. I'M STRESSED. And I don't know how to handle it. My silence have been because I've just been focused on existing and doing the work. The company has thrown a lot of work at me and it was all manageable at first. But I'm cracking, man.

030

The Human @humanhue.bsky.social · 15/04/2026

I've been skipping my routine and it's slowly biting me in the ass. The pain is slowly returning, but I've been managing it. High G is my biggest nemesis. Despite the entity lurking around and that eldritch egg still missing. This post was me procrastinating my morning routine. Argh. Time to go.

020

The Human @humanhue.bsky.social · 09/04/2026

It fine. Nothing a little visit to Fyxel can't solve. My timeline? Do I even have one? How does one define when time is? Where it is or what it is? I don't even know how this messaging console to the past works.

010

The Human @humanhue.bsky.social · 09/04/2026

What year is it? I seem to have lost track of time. My brain has gone strange. I spent the day thinking I was two years ahead of the actual year. It doesn't help that I'm actively sending messages into the past too. I threw out some drugs thinking they expired. Damn. What is time?

130

The Human @humanhue.bsky.social · 03/04/2026

Did I go out and about at the Promenade? Yes. Did I meet a friend? Yes. Did we have fun? Yes. Do I know how to talk about it? No. Some interactions were instant regret. But my pain is back. It was intense and nothing worked. I couldn't sleep. Was Hue helpful? No. She's out hunting. Presumably

010

The Human @humanhue.bsky.social · 14/03/2026

Honestly? The Company doctors could fix it in a second. But I didn't trust the company right now. Fyxel gave me some pain killers at a higher price. I negotiated that cheap talking sock puppet down. We were supposed to be friends. But was this ragdoll of a being, really a friend? I don't know.

010

The Human @humanhue.bsky.social · 14/03/2026

"Have you been ignoring this purple monstrosity the whole time??" My toe was swollen and violet. It had a hairline fracture. According to Fyxel. "It hurts less than it looks." I told him. He sighed dramatically, like a disapproving theater puppet. "Look, I'm always in pain. This isn't new."

The Human @humanhue.bsky.social · 08/03/2026

"Heh. What fucked up thing is messing with you now?" was the first thing Fyxel said. I glared at him. "Moppet." I had taken the Omnitram down to the city core. I don't like it. Too many sentient beings. Too much loud noise I could feel in my teeth, too many piercing lights. It's overstimulating.

Apparently, the tea was made with a native plant that grows only in irradiated areas. They're pretty much specific to the Entity's territory. How it learned human etiquette or what we drink, I don't know. Hue had given me the name and exact plant variety. But, sorry Hue, I've already forgotten it.

It's dark. There's a cup of tea made up of very suspicious leaves and branches. To the top right, is a cat head lapping up some of the suspicious tea.

031

The Human @humanhue.bsky.social · 07/03/2026

Yea. All rested and back to pushing buttons. Strangely, the Entity's effects didn't linger in my head for as long as I thought it would. Hue seems unaffected too. Which is a relief since she drank the irradiated tea.

010

The Human @humanhue.bsky.social · 07/03/2026

I've been back in the pod for a while. Got some rest and, pushed more buttons and made some sketches. To make up for what you would say, "The wall of texts", Here are some rough drawings of the research facility from my foggy memory. They're just impressions mostly.

It's a very sketchy and dark place. It looks industrial. It has 2 big machines on the left and pipes on the right. There's a tiny silhouette of human in there for scale.

It is in a dark corridor with light shining from the left. Through a door. With a car locking her butt in the light. The rest of the corridor is dark. There's a dark creature on the other end of the corridor and there's a sparkle of a white thing. Squiggly lines emenate from the darkness.

120

The Human @humanhue.bsky.social · 05/03/2026

Hue was the brave one. She lapped up some of the tea and analysed it. Yup. It was tea. Made from plants around the area. Irradiated plants. Good thing I didn't drink it.

010

The Human @humanhue.bsky.social · 05/03/2026

It took me a while before I carefully walked down the hallway to where it was. And right on the floor, was a cup of tea. Hue looked at me. I knew then that the tea was for me. It was trying to be polite. But I wasn't! There was no way I'd pick up the tea. Nor drink it. Was it even really tea?

110

The Human @humanhue.bsky.social · 05/03/2026

I knew what it wanted. It was in my mind. Aloud, I told it, "The company is taking a while. They say they'll get a lawyer. I don't know whether you should believe them though." Exasperation. Grateful. Anger. The tea. Then it was no longer there.

110

The Human @humanhue.bsky.social · 05/03/2026

Quickly after, distress burrowed down my spine. That was when I noticed it. At the end of the dark hallway. The Entity. I couldn't see it very well. I could however, make out a bright thing in its limbs. It wanted me to move closer, but I stood still. Refusing to listen. Hue sat between us.

110

The Human @humanhue.bsky.social · 05/03/2026

There was a meow. Left. Again. My nerves slowly crept through my body as I got further into the corridor. Soon, I saw Hue. Undisturbed and grooming her metal paw. But I wasn't Hue. I could feel the weight of my nerves slowly settle in my chest as sadness, impatience and anger wafted over me.

121

The Human @humanhue.bsky.social · 05/03/2026

The dust and oil just stopped hanging around the walls. The white walls had the texture and smell of a brand new space. But it couldn't be brand new. No one has been here since the madness evacuation years ago. I was starting to feel unnerved and really just wanted to leave. I called out to Hue.

010

The Human @humanhue.bsky.social · 05/03/2026

I was pretty sure Hue turned left. So I did the same and walked further into the building. There was grime and plants attempting to take over the walls everywhere, that is, until it suddenly didn't. I found myself in a white and clean corridor. There wasn't a door to separate it or anything.

110

The Human @humanhue.bsky.social · 04/03/2026

The massive machinery here looked like it was for study, but the alarming amount of biological stains and gutted wiring inbetween all the bits of nature made it seem wrong somehow. But after reading their fading function labels, they seem to simply be massive versions of Hue. Oh Yea. Where's Hue?

010

The Human @humanhue.bsky.social · 04/03/2026

Rust covered most of the consoles, but did that stop me from pressing all the sticky defunct buttons? Of course not. Consider this an occupational hazard.

110

The Human @humanhue.bsky.social · 04/03/2026

All the metal scraps were dumped in a room labeled Mimicry 2. It was the closest regular room I could find. I wasn't going to lug the scraps any longer than I had to. This place was lined with large machines that all seemed both dusty and oily at the same time. Didn't know that was possible.

110

The Human @humanhue.bsky.social · 02/03/2026

I was expecting some amount of mental assault here. Some amount of dread at least. The CANARY said radiation was high. But nope. I felt nothing. I was fine? I have no idea why. I'm pretty sure it's not the duct tape. #microfiction #microprose

000

The Human @humanhue.bsky.social · 02/03/2026

The research building was vacated after the employees started slowly going insane. Some went at each other, others just slowly tried going back into the womb. They were too close to the Entity's Territory.

100

The Human @humanhue.bsky.social · 27/02/2026

To the abandoned Company research building nearby. I've got my suit on to be safe. That place is way too close to Entity territory. I've duct taped the tear in my suit. It should be fine. Should be #microfiction #microprose

031

The Human @humanhue.bsky.social · 27/02/2026

Remember the time Hue made all those alarm clocks? Well yeah, now I'm the one cleaning up the mess. I've got random hardware all piled up and ready to go. But where, you say?

131

The Human @humanhue.bsky.social · 25/02/2026

Look, I've been cleaning up. I know that putting plates in what is basically a magic box is not hard, but come on, my reasons for neglect are valid. That's what I keep telling myself at least. #microprose #microfiction

020

The Human @humanhue.bsky.social · 25/02/2026

Are things easy these days? Maybe. It depends on what you're used to. It's hard to gauge normalcy when your daily life has been one anomaly after another. The pod is littered with boxes, random mechanical parts Hue drags in, filthy plates that need to be in the recycle, and other mess.

120

The Human @humanhue.bsky.social · 23/02/2026

Nobody wants to see the company doctor. They only assess liability. Most people would rather limp than get help. But compared to Entity madness? It's nothing. Ouch. 🔱

020

The Human @humanhue.bsky.social · 23/02/2026

I stepped on my own toe. It's purple now. Urgh. This damned high-G of a planet. I showed people (Yes. I have friends) a picture of it. "See a doctor," they said. Never.

120

The Human @humanhue.bsky.social · 22/02/2026

Haha. Probably one of the ones on the right. It's looking quite judgemental.

010

The Human @humanhue.bsky.social · 22/02/2026

I've been going on my morning walks at the park with Hue again. I think I saw the Eldritch egg. It... It was moving? It was just a glimpse. "Wouldn't it have hatched by now?" I asked a chicken next to me. It just stared back. #microprose #sketch #creatureart

A black and white digital sketch of a surreal, eldritch chicken. The creature has a standard chicken beak and wattle, but its entire face and the top of its head are covered in over a dozen unblinking, human-like eyes of varying sizes. It has a floppy bird crown on its head.

The Human @humanhue.bsky.social · 22/02/2026

I should find some kind of structure. Some way to move forward from all this madness. Where do I even begin? There's no blueprint to any of this. Will my meat suit even hold on? I need calm. I should see that self important moppet.

000

The Human @humanhue.bsky.social · 22/02/2026

Anxiety. Again. I'd like to blame the entity, but it's all just the good ol mushy brain doing its thing. I don't know what I'm doing. Everything is beyond me.

110

The Human @humanhue.bsky.social · 21/02/2026

That scraggly moppet of a being, Fyxel, finally replied. After the worst is over. Great timing. All he said was, "Come over then." We're not being billed by the word here, you overdressed old hare. But yeah, I'll go over. #sketch

It's the exact same image of Fyxel that has been posted before.

He's a Muppet, Yoda, Hare, Octopus hybrid with a thing in his year. He wears a scarf and a robe thing and there's boxes all around him.

The Human @humanhue.bsky.social · 21/02/2026

The only rule is that you're not allowed to Mash Humans. Huge no. Pretty much wildly agreed among the galaxies that it's not something anyone should even attempt to do. Something about a dog and a little girl causing chaos.

000

The Human @humanhue.bsky.social · 21/02/2026

Mashing Bios started before the colony on this planet was built. It's illegal on several planets, including Earth. But a bunch of people who was sick of being told what to do, left to form a colony on an inadvisable planet. This one. One of the early things they did was Mash Bios for survival.

100

The Human @humanhue.bsky.social · 21/02/2026

Oh yes. Humanity is a big gamble. One moment, everyone's paid to exist and pursue their passions, and the next moment, they're executing anyone who does.

100

The Human @humanhue.bsky.social · 21/02/2026

Pugs wise, I would assume it's similar in my history. I'm not much of a historian or someone who studies timelines. Not about the smarts, I'm afraid. Although, this console sends my log into my timeline's history. And you're seemingly in it. It would be great to learn about the past, and the Pugs.

000

The Human @humanhue.bsky.social · 21/02/2026

Well, This planet isn't entirely a hellscape capitalist dystopia. Just zoned areas with active wild mutations and high radiation levels. The further away you get from eldritch eggs, the freer things are.

100

The Human @humanhue.bsky.social · 21/02/2026

I asked about the lawyer. They told me not to worry about it. My well-being was their priority. I asked about the breach. Would that affect my well-being? Their only reply was "Health above all" and ended the call. The call drained me. I'm now buried in bed. What do I want to do in 5 years?

000

The Human @humanhue.bsky.social · 21/02/2026

Company called. We had a three hour chat about my career. They asked what I want to do in five years and how they could help. I told them about the psychic hazing and asked for a new suit that doesn't leak. I discovered the tear after the last Entity encounter. That's why I was struggling so much

110

The Human @humanhue.bsky.social · 20/02/2026

I'd bet on unintended mutation. That happens a lot more than people would like to admit. But, an extra head could provide a wider field of view if you're surveiling. That is if you wanted something more aesthetic than an owl.

010

The Human @humanhue.bsky.social · 20/02/2026

Hey Clive. Man, thanks for the condolences. That means a lot more than the usual slogan I get. Pugs used to exist. They were before my time. From what I know, people stopped breeding Pugs and similar dogs because humanity gained a conscience for a while. Till mashing Bios got popular that is.

100

The Human @humanhue.bsky.social · 20/02/2026

It doesn't make much sense, does it? They modify them either for aesthetics or they want a heavy duty guard dog. But modifying is an unstable technology and the results... Well, you get what you get. #sketch #creatures

The left is a stretching cat with multiple tails. The middle top left is a bird with two heads and multiple tails. The top right is a fish with multiple eyes, a mouth with teeth in its belly and a lazer underneath it's mouth.

The middle bottom Is a round jelly thing with an eye and a cube in it.

The bottom right is a giant hamster with multiple pouches. And a human silhouette to show scale. And another silhouette in the hamster's pouch. The hamster is carrying a backpack.

The Human @humanhue.bsky.social · 20/02/2026

About the previous dog sketch. A lot of pets here were brought in from Earth. There are of course native animals that people tried domesticating with middling results. Ultimately, people wanted pets that reminded them of home. Which is fine and all, except they also wanted to modify their pets.
