Generation Xmas
This is a nightmare. It's spreading like a virus through the ship's first generation. I look at their faces in the classroom, all these bright faces, normally so studious, now filled with childish wonder and confusion at the thought of this ridiculous lie. I almost wish it were a virus, something I could deal with, control.

The Final Job
42 was good at his job. In fact, he was the best. Working for The Agency certainly beat any typical nine-to-five, not that many of them existed in the year 2381. The Agency was an organised society tasked with ensuring the best outcome for humanity, sending agents back in time to trim any errors and tie off loose ends. Whether this meant eliminating tyrannical dictators, tipping the scales of the stock market, or inspiring world-altering innovations, The Agency ensured that humanity would out-survive our sun. But in his recent years, 42 had begun to feel a longing for something more; for something that The Agency did not account for.

Dust
You're peeling back your inner gloves, aching in every muscle after a twelve-hour shift, when you feel a faint pressure against the inside of your left wrist where the thick latex is doubled over. You barely have time to register the sensation before it disappears with a soft pop, and a cloud of tiny motes appears around your hand, sparkling in the harsh white lights of the decontamination room. Your heart lurches and you yank your hand back, but it's a spastic movement, directed by your terrified lizard-brain rather than the part of you that thinks, and those few centimeters of exposed skin at your wrist pass through the cloud before you stagger backward, cradling your arm to your chest. You look down to see a thin dusting of gray specks on your skin, then feel a brief, almost-painful tingling as they disappear, leaving behind an angry-looking scattering of tiny red bumps.

The Sun Seeker- Part 7
“Jes? Are you awake?” Jes wanted to summon a snort for Hash, but that was too much emotion right now. She sat on the bed, in much the same position they'd left her in last, and soaked up the silence and dark of the room. The sun had fallen behind the horizon, and with it, her new vision was dimmed to almost nothing. There were little wisps and glimmers, but otherwise she was as blind as anyone else in this moment. It was a strange sort of comfort. A little bit of normal.
