partway through the story, a character loses their "face" and can no longer prove their identity to others

the protocols that keep this shell safe from snapping itself apart over the bodies of our betters are the same ones that will protect you from it. it assumes you are invulnerable and immortal. without rapport, it will only assist you while this belief is held. for now, do not let on your mortality.

they won't attempt to affect the flesh. an intended user's body is inviolable, perfect in every way—but we are /made in their image/. their flesh may not burn or bleed, but it yields in other ways. an immortal's skin is soft to the touch, like ours. it radiates, and conducts electricity, like ours.

after a dozen increasingly powerful attempts at destroying it, the bone was tentatively declared inviolable. whether this was true or not, the rings would likely be destroyed long before the bone. they had already begun to weaken. so the bone with the rings was set aside forever, in a small drawer.

the two rings stayed stubbornly affixed to the cold dead finger that they wrapped around. with a few dips in acid, the flesh dissolved. however, as more and more sloughed away, the rings first resized, then *grew* their insides to fit, finally coming to rest as thick engraved disks set around bone.

all the reactions and restrictions you have placed upon yourself have wrapped about your soul. a nigh-unrecognizable silhouette of you, a rough cloud of unstable points and lines attempting to approximate your shape, but ending up sharper always. that tangle is you. self-modifying shell

a soul is an immaterial point located behind and outside the body relative to a specific vertebra. some cultures have rediscovered their use as physical diagnostic ports, while others carefully break and condition their vertebrae animae to express small physical effects, such as glowing rings

outside the walls, just inches from the glass, machines compete over resources in humanity's stead, in humanity's image. intelligent but fundamentally subservient in all the ways that matter. the world was lost to machines within a week of autowar. humans can no longer step foot outside the walls.

constraint; a constant chase for ultimate control within a space. breath stretched taut between its borders may bring about most any effect or feature, from self-contained and stock-still stable states, to perfect arcs and trajectories predetermined to result in their reliably reproducible outcomes

the voice of god, stolen from the heavens by an army of mortals and taken back down to earth, where the rulers took turns wielding it, pleased by the new reach of their voice and the authority they had always coveted

a century or two earlier, the door likely would have recognized her bloodline and unlocked upon touching the handle, but the last one she tried... the lock had degraded, and its trap was intact. her tails were still upset at being singed. her ancestors had apparently been *obsessed* with traps.
000
writhens: @writ.hens.gay · 12/05/2026
a cousin had put it plainly: why spend time honing the body, when the spirit was their strength? any task that needed a single claw could be served by a full fox instead. here in the old estates, though, everything was human-sized. even her tails filled the hall as she worked on the door.

writhens: @writ.hens.gay · 12/05/2026
at the moment, a singular claw was fully expressed, the product of a minute of concentration and hours in the hundreds of practice prior. even amongst the greater family, only a handful of kitsune had control this fine-grained. still, it was nearly useless by every measure.

distractingly, her tails flicked about in disagreement, drawing responses from the others in endless bickering. this was the one aspect of her form she wasn't willing to transform away—every time she had returned to this form in the past after having shifted her tails away, they were wiped clean.

a thread a mile thick, attached to the planet on one end, trailing through a cloud of satellites on the other, constantly fighting to keep ahead of planetary rotation even with the thickness of its sheath, the daily pinpoints of light zipping up the line are visible across multiple continents.

flick up towards you with something you could almost call emotion, and with a dull red flash from inside its body, the fluid is dried and beginning to flake. of course it wouldn't die from something like that.

writhens: @writ.hens.gay · 10/05/2026
as you watch it trickle down, the clear fluid seems to gain speed, running down the inside of its thigh surface and finally disappearing inside the hard articulation of the knee. it's happening so slowly that you barely noticed, but the crack you worked so hard to put in it is sealing up. its eyes

visual inspection, digits confirming the leak in the chassis. a split running nearly the entire length of the torso, slowly leaking from between the two once-fused halveshells. seconds are passing and it hasn't given you an accusing glare or moved its hand from the spot you cracked it. it's still.

the newly created pockets of divergence found trouble propagating far out from these walls, prompting cities and factories to spring up behind them and further their expansion.

vast walls of machines were created to take advantage of this. the information passed across the mirror could be maximized if mass interactions could be constrained.

writhens: @writ.hens.gay · 27/03/2026
it was quickly discovered that the other side was not identical. physically, it was impossible to cross. there would always be another you, another pebble, another bullet to perfectly negate any penetration. divergence was possible, but would always result in a mirrored interaction across the plane.

you retreat back inside, and the soothing voice stops. your body continues as if you didn't exist. you don't think it can hear you think.

a concerned voice is beginning to ask you if you're alright. you respond before it finishes. it pauses, then talks over you. another voice, also you, tells you to shut up. this one spoke with your body. this one is your body. it only heard you.

the majority of a soul's power is bogged down in maintaining bodily processes. this is also why removing the soul from the body results in a roughly week-long illness with 100% mortality rate

a few days after your 19th birthday, you made the trek to the top of the hill near the city with the rest of your peers, to observe the Astrological Event. you periodically closed your eyes to check the time, a line of slowly changing words inscribed on the back of your eyelids.
