“George, are you going to pull yourself together soon?” George heard Teri’s voice but his head was lying on the ground looking at one of his feet. Somewhere he’d also lost his shoe. Great, he thought. As if it wasn’t bad enough, he was a shambles again. The time dilation kept his parts whole, but the integration once stepping through the wormhole… He was still alive, but in chunks. A pile of parts on the floor was not the impression he wanted to give for their first date. Everything would snap back together like magnetic poles aligning once they got close, but getting them in the right place was the trick.

I didn’t want to go, but Barry had put a lot of effort into finding me what he considered the perfect date. “Aren’t you lonely, Serena?” he said. His voice floated around the room.

The Beautiful One Has Come, The Family of Ay
Neffi "Where did it go?" Nubia asks an equally confused Neffi. "How should I know," Neffi says, throwing her hands up in the air. "One second, the book was on fire…in my freaking hands," she says, looking down at her perfectly healthy hands, "…and the next aunt Henni was telling us to close up. For all I know, it incinerated itself and blew away." She says in a huff, walking over to the large bay window to see if it was open and searching around it for any gaps or air holes in which ashes can seep through.

Every journey begins with the first step, and every journey ends with the last step. Everyone knows this. What they don’t tell you is how grueling each step can be. The tiredness that comes with walking, trying, living. How can life be so special when it is just so much work. All. the. Time. Today is day number whatever of Archie continuing his journey. Since he was tasked to find a new home for his hive, he has been growing more fatigued with each passing moment. But, even with the growing desire to just quit and find some nice sunny spot to carry out the rest of his days, he simply cannot abandon the few ants that cared for him. Moreover, while Archie will never admit it out loud, he is proud of the fact that he is the only one brave enough to venture out into the darkening world.

Hiding in the Light
We managed to reach my truck without incident. He stopped and looked as if he were about to object to getting in. “Our first stop is roughly twenty miles from here. If you'd rather walk.” Whatever he had been about to say he wisely kept to himself. Pulling out of the parking lot I filled him in. “With the lack of information in the file trying to figure out where to look is going to be somewhat difficult.” He didn't look convinced, waving his had towards the scenery outside he asked. “How many places could he go to around here? I shot him a stern look.

Movie Trek 1: Impossible Vistas, Impractical Pyjamas
Periodically, the missus and I settle down for a rewatch of the Star Trek movies. That's thirteen films released over a 37-year period, so in theory gives us plenty of variety in terms of content and style. With a fourteenth film announced for summer 2023 (although don't hold your breath for them actually sticking to that date) it seemed like a good time to start the run over, and while we're at it, why not a proper write-up? However, when we do this run-through, we do often cheat a bit, and skip The Motion Picture. Not this time.

A Consequential Love
My date walked into the restaurant with They’re eyes fixated to mine. I exhaled for only a second, only to capture myself. Could this be real? I didn’t even feel human. I felt like an alien; the irony.
