Sacred Glitch
Aboard the space-faring Evermore, Lapis stole away in a hygiene closet. She cradled her AI microcluster cube long enough to precipitate. Wiping on her pants, she carefully circumvented vital, swarming cables. Her pixelated visor screen, too few millimeters away from her eyes, taunted her with confounding code.

Dear God
Dear God, sorry it’s been a while. I’m not really good at this prayer thing. Jesus camp kind of ruined the whole “benevolent guy in the sky” idea for me when I found out about hell and how I was most definitely going there if I wasn’t “saved”.

Six-year-old me still has nightmares of being shamed in congregation, but I’m desperate. Can you still hear me? Have you ever?
