“Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space... or so they say,” the hologram echoed. The hue of the digi-board’s synthetic lights electrified the miner’s byway, silhouetting the rush-hour crowd. McParlane turned away from the advertisement and limped down the tunnel street.

Experiment 86119
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. I rather feel like I hear screams too often while looking at the vastness of the stars above me. Inhaling the salty air as I stand just close enough to the ocean for the water to roll over my feet, I ignore the subtle hues of different colored lights coming from me. Almost in a trance, I stand perfectly still as I await something I’m not a hundred percent certain of as a memory rises.

The End
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. What they don’t say, is that the vacuum of space is a void. A void that eats away at almost every sense. Theruvé learned this within just a month of being in the void. Taste is something you no longer need as a slow release NutrIV injection sustains you for centuries. Touch is something no longer experienced. At the beginning you might feel cold, but even that yields to numbness. Smell, much like touch, slowly gives way to nothing. Hearing? Well, what use is it in the silence of the void? The only sense that must be retained and protected at all costs, is sight. Theruvé was a Shomrim, a sentry of the outer rim, a silent sentinel at the edge of the universe, the first defense from whatever lay beyond The End.

Prelude to Oblivion
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. I am here to tell you that I believe you can. Well, some of us can. It’s all a bit complicated, and I am still sorting through the details. The “details”?? Hmmm… maybe the answer is in the details. What are the details, I wondered? And then I realized I can’t remember… ANYTHING. Not only are details fuzzy, but everything is fuzzy.

Mine
Present Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. Io can still hear Axium's in her internal comms unit, and his screaming sobs were all she could hear from their last exchange. She has a record of all NCOMMs between Axium and her, from back to the FISU(Forward Inter Solar Unit) academy. He was in her first Ceribal Hacking Ethics course, and they became best friends instantly. Axium was kicked out of lectures on more than one occasion for pushing back on some of the professors' statements. He was the most harmonious source of contrast in her life.
