Dylan needed to figure out how that ship got through the lines, even if the brass had warned him off the investigation. It was not some #esoteric thing, not magic, not divine. It was technological, but what that technology could be eluded him and the very best minds of his crew & the navy. #vss365

Call it #naïveté, but Rory thought the whole point of the game was to play it, the quests, the tasks, the building and such, but there were certain ‘players’ who did nothing but the same world bosses, over and over again. Seemingly just to rack up endless amounts of xp. It seemed pointless. #vss365

Finished reading ‘Kings of the Wyld’ and I *loved* it! Loved the characters, the writing style, the humour. Everything. They say it’s like ‘What if … Fantasy rock bands?’, but I found it more like D&D players in a bar talking like their campaign was real. So much fun. Next up: ‘The Last Kingdom’

A Black and White photo of her. But her lips are moving, as empty eye sockets stare, as they bleed. I think she's crying for help, I think she's dying alone. A Black and White photo of her, as she laughs, and she's at peace again, she's Sixteen again, she's alive again, in a Black and White photo.

Writers belonging lies in thresholds of air. In doorways. In the halt. They root themselves in living & leaving. On the horizon that stings & the proximity that steadies. Their chosen ground is the almost illicit border where worlds blur. Or begin. #vss365 #prompt Dec 11 #illicit 🖼️ Liminal Gallery

From scraps of silence trembling beside sudden bursts of thought, a story we have long feared begins to gather. Farewell to the hesitant preludes! Make a place for a raw soliloquy. What was stifled has finally found the ribs to break through. #vss365 #prompt December 8 #soliloquy #art ~ Lily

Reform accepted £9 million from a former Boris Johnson backer & crypto-multimillionaire. Today, Nigel Farage postures as a righteous defender of the same democracy he actively undermines. Democracy should never be for sale. It's time for a cap on political donations.

They patrolled the racks for signs of leaks or waking. Indications of sentience were to be reported immediately.
Originally, his superior had sprung one of them for a bit of fun. A boy. Though Grey had reported the nonce and got him canned, he could swear the boy reacted to him whenever he patrolled. He felt hateful eyes upon him, though the tests said it was impossible. He swore the lad remembered, knew it was wrong and was biding his time.

Nights had run long for weeks now, but, ultimately, day and night were ephemeral concepts when you spent most of your time in space. Dylan caught the #reflection of his face on one of Magpie’s consoles and mused that it was a good thing he wasn’t in a proper military. He looked a mess. #vss365

Rory had made many mistakes while playing the game. Upon #reflection, most of those mistakes were largely his own fault, but that was the beauty of the game. Mistakes weren’t fatal. Well, they quite often were, but mortality in the game was a rather fluid affair and being dead temporary. #vss365

The ships screamed overhead, within the atmosphere of the moon, and Dylan checked the auto-chronometer. Fast, but simply not fast enough. They needed to eke out more speed, more manoeuvrability, more everything, He called up and told them to do it again, #timed once again until they got it. #vss365

Food and comfort were both carrot and stick. Obedience was rewarded with larger portions and warm and dry hay. And reducing or withdrawing privileges brought swift correction.
The scanners provided instant analysis, down to single-cell level - far beyond DNA. To alert when most tender, delicious or the greatest nutritional value had been reached.
It was commonplace for the bots to cart us away and begin the preparations, when the master became peckish.
He liked the males most of all. Liked to look us in the eye as he sucked on the juices from their other orb. "
