    What’s Going to Happen

    ByNicodim the Web Spinner November 22, 2017

    She was the kind of cute that became really, really hot when you were around it for long enough. For me it took like…a half hour or so. Not sure how long it took everyone else. Hat was skeptical. So was I, but I mean…that didn’t mean I didn’t want her on the team or…

    Call Girl

    ByNicodim the Web Spinner November 20, 2017

    It was dark in the room when Miller woke up. The darkness didn’t necessarily imply it was night time. Miller generally kept the room dark, it was a hangover from his days as a deep spacer. The darkness simply made it easier to transition from waking into working. “Time?” Miller muttered. “The local time is…

    Our Second Lives

    ByTheastoundingoutpost November 17, 2017

      ‘Where Immortality Becomes Reality’ the holographic cube spelled as it danced in front of Mary’s eyes.

    PASSING THE TORCH

    ByTheastoundingoutpost November 16, 2017

      Klaxons drown out the screams.  I smell smoke and the dust from shattered concrete.  I’m standing just inside Johnson’s lab, surrounded by stainless steel fermenters and rows of refrigerators, in front of shelves of shattered glass vials and test tubes trembling in their racks.  At the end of a counter I see the desktop…
