When I was a sophomore at my local high school, I never had any friends. The only people who talked to me were guys who liked me for my body, since I was tall, blonde and skinny.

Those of us who live in the thirtieth century pride ourselves in our rationality and civility. Still, we crave adventure, as humans have always done for untold millennia. For that reason, I put on my jet backpack and hiking boot boosters and trekked to Sirius 265, a well populated world in a nearby stellar system. The star, known simply as the Flame to loca...
(FutaWriter here - Sorry for the absence in all honesty I was just feeling lazy. I'm going on a trip to France for the next month and a bit so I and Tara Quinn will be taking a break. The next Quinn story will be a big one. *wink* Take this pretty short short story to tide you over. It's in another universe, but let's say they're in the same multiverse. (Jus...

"A Hieronymus machine," Harrison Wells droned impatiently, as if he had already explained this a million times before, "is a device that works not through electronic or mechanical means, but through directing the mental, psionic power of the human being operating it. Because of this, it does not necessarily have to be constructed out of any specific material...
*Note to readers: This story involves the fetish of smoking. If that offends you, please move on but don't bother telling me how you feel about it. Smoking is legal and people who smoke do so by choice. As I've said elsewhere, from the moment it begins, life comes with a death sentence. How we live in between is a matter of free choice.
