Dragon's Back
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. Sound needs air to move in waves through the particles and molecules and dust floating in the air. Theia followed a few bits of dust floating through the beam of her headlamp, and then reached up to turn it off for a minute. She tried to breathe deeply in the cramped space, counting in and out, the way the old Skipper had taught her. Sound didn’t travel well underground, either, through the solid rock of the walls that pressed against her. It had always been quiet, though, and she had never felt anxious or trapped before. More often she felt.. held, by the cool, smooth rocks of the cave, with its familiar handholds and curves.

J. E. SullivanPublished 2 years ago in FuturismEntropy's Last Dance
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. Entropy dances outward, ever expanding. The grand illusion is order and form, when everything is actually descending into chaos. If they could hear, if their consciousness was really expanding, they would hear the screaming. For some of us, there is not an illusion at all. They do not hear the agony I experience as I shift from nothing into something, as form breathes out of me just to explode again into particles and light. The humans balk at something being both things simultaneously. They do not yet realize there are creatures that are not just in two places at once, but everywhere all at once, existing only to give them the illusion of order. Blinking our consciousness from place to place, we lend form and energy to their experiences at our expense.
Space Oddity
No one can hear the screams in the vacuum of space, or so they say. And as I float there, screaming, I realized they were wrong.

Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. That's all I wanted now, to drift quietly into the sound of nothing. I had searched for that abyss here on earth but 2022 had evolved our planet into one giant satellite that could stream a steady kind of tinnitus you could actually feel. There were no more places one could dwell among the mountaintops and contemplate the Now. There was only the perpetual buzz of communications resonating through the Social Registry chip implanted in every citizen's molar. I needed to find fluent silence.

AHP, S4 Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. I lay in my pod, thinking about how it all started, over a half million miles away. To be a part of the machine was the only way but to be aware of it and control it was god-like. God is this essence of total knowledge of the machine, life and consciousness. This world we are all connected into has someone or a bunch of someone's playing god with it. This group has desires. Some of them are genuinely good but most are horrifically bad only seeking to fulfill their own desire to be god, to control. This is the age old struggle, the battle between good and evil. It's just all been hidden behind the doors of laboratories. This group of people created an environment, an entire world where they could, did and for the most part, still do whatever they want. This group, just like any other group, has leaders and differences of opinions amongst its people but they agreed on one thing and that was the world was theirs to control.

Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. They say a lot that doesn’t make sense to me. It’s hard to follow the narrative when it’s always been written against me. The homes of millions have been roofed by lies and built over bones of the unloved and captured.
Dvn ShacklettPublished 2 years ago in FuturismThe Galactic Batmobile
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. That is until the arrival of the galactic Batmobile discovered upon The surface of Jupiter in the year 2525. Who built it is uncertain, As it arrived one day in the Gotham city that is indeed upon Jupiter. Batman who resides in a nearby Castle received it as a gift from his old friend, Mr Freeze, one stormy Jupiter day. What a beauty the car was , gothic yet elegant that he found could serve as a car and a flying ship. The citizens upon Jupiter were very different as they lived underneath the cloudy stormy sky, as some called it’s the eye of Jupiter. The people appeared like ghost apparitions and could float throughout the narrow passageways of the old city that Batman was dedicated to defend. He sat in the swirling gaseous clouds at the steering wheel of his bat craft with his chiseled face and handsome chin within the black mask of a Batman. He wasn’t on the job but on a date with the luscious Spiderwomen 🕸who was starting to weave her web into the soul of the masked hero. She was about to open a glass jar Full of intoxicating perfume that would have snared the hero into her web for a good if it wasn’t for the radio alarm that went off breaking the soon to be hypnotizing spell of the webbed woman. They were cruising at a high altitude over Io, where there was said to be a romantic restaurant overlooking the methane sea that the Gotham police force did recommend. spider woman was holding a brochure with a picture advertising of the restaurant that look like a white calcium structure surrounded by a green murky sea, with fishtail waitresses serving exotic seafood that a mermaid would like more than a spider woman, but what would a spider woman enjoy more? What was in the jar that she planned on hypnotizing Batman with? She slipped it back into her purse as the voice on the radio gave a police Report of an incident back home in Gotham city that Batman had to return back to since he was on alert. He was after all on duty being a sworn protector and a member of the secret society. He let spider woman off at her front door as she stepped out of the car with her black robe and spidery hair trailing in the foggy headlights of the night air. The car lifted up like a hovercraft as he drove to where the distress call was reported ,the front door of the secret society. There, a woman dressed in a coat arrayed with the broach of amethyst that was The seal of the secret society greeted him. She was very distressed and she told a story about a man dressed in a clown suit that was holding members of the society hostage inside the building. Batman thought to himself, as he scratched his chin, hmmm, that must be the joker🤡 He raced through the door with his laser weapon strap to his belt underneath his flowing cape only to find the joker standing underneath a bright beam of light that seem to be shooting out of the ceiling. The victims were huddled in the corner, gasping in Relief when Batman entered. Batman knew the Joker and his tricks all to well. I see you are up to one of your tricks, Joker, i’m not surprised by anything you do anymore. Ah it is you Batman, you’re just in time for a little show. The jokers clown faced grin outlined by his bright red clown hair underneath the spotlight of what appeard to be That Of an unidentified flying object they had broken a hole through the ceiling. Look what I found the joker exclaimed ! A secret society ! Batman you shouldn’t hide things from the public it’s not good for your record. What do you want with these members joker? They couldn’t possibly have anything that you would be interested in. let’s just say I’m interested in what they are guarding and why they need a secret society, he said twirling his pop gun.🔫 he then pointed his pop gun at a middle aged man making a obnoxious toy sound that surrounded the figure in a green gas🧪 making him disappear. Joker laughed at his Silly charade, while Batman became angry. Joker 🤡😡😡where did the man go? let’s just say he went on a little trip. Joker I’m just one step away from blasting you into outer space. Suddenly from the hole in the sky descended down the Riddler and what appear to be the penguin 🐧with his umbrella ⛱ floating down. Well you see I am not as alone as you think. The penguin wobbled over to where Batman was standing pointing his umbrella at Batman as it fired a strange gas that made Batman totally disappear. Waaah that’s a good one Penguin 🐧 ! Said as the Riddler joined in and took a puff of his cigar. Quickly tie up the people and let’s take all the loot out of the safe, Riddler said being an old pro at this kind of entourage. but where did Batman go? It seems that only cat woman 😽would find out has she was outside prowling the roof top and peering into what appear to be a UFO. she quickly took a rope and attached to the craft where she walked up inside finding Batman inside a glass dome. She pressed her claws against the dome only To see The marvel hero helplessly encased within the glass. She only had moments before joker Riddler and penguin would return as she didn’t know what to do. Down below the three stooges were discussing how to crack the safe and were examining a lot of rare jewelry and artifacts that the secret society had collected from around the world. Look at this joker, have you ever seen A bobble like this? It has the eyes of a Spinks and the face on Mars! Riddler had found a gold piece of original art most likely made by Martians. meanwhile up in the craft cat woman had called Robin on her batcat watch that Batman had given her for Christmas. Robin was instructing her to break the glass with anything heavy she could find as she was looking around, She found a marble statue that she threw at the glass dome but it did nothing but ricochet off. Use your diamond ring robin said through her watch, as he Thought of another way. Catwoman then took her diamond ring 💍💎and etched a small circle that cut through the glass. Suddenly Batman came to Life and no longer looked like a wax figure in a museum. His eyes opened as she broke the spell where he was able to grab his weapon firing it at the dome melting it like snow with a kryptonite like force. Meow your weapon is super powerful she said. Yes cat woman Mr. freeze designed it and you are like a angel in disguise. Let’s get out of here before the three return. I have to catch them before they take the national treasure Of the secret society.Robins voice was still on the watch, I have already called the hovercraft police, they will be there in no time. Good thinking Robin, let’s catch the rats before they take the cheese. jumping through the roof cat woman and Batman raced to the safe as they were bagging the last of the loot.🤑 Both had their weapons pointing at the three comedians of crime. Put your hands on your head, This will be your last crime joker Riddler and penguin. I told you we should’ve put the cat woman in the bag, riddler said as he puffed his cigar. The loot dropped as Catwoman enforced the command sticking her weapon at the Riddler’s ribs. Cat woman then took the bag 💰but too soon the show would come to a end as the joker had one last trick up his sleeve. Grabbing riddlers cane that released more gas smoking the chamber with fumes strong enough to let the three gangsters make a getaway. 💸The heroes passed out when the police force arrived having the stolen loot vanished along with joker Riddler and the penguin. But where did the threesome vanish to? A sea of methane gas high above Jupiter? The next day a note was found written by the Riddler, here I sit with a bag full of loot, if you want it back, go to where the barn owls hoot. And just what is that supposed to mean? Batman thought as he wondered how he was going to find a barn owl? inside his castle he had volumes of his books that he had written where he referred back to his story he wrote called a hermit Owlman. He sat down and pondered, now where can I find a hermit Owlman???🦉🦉🦉
