It’s beautiful, what you can learn of a person
If you give them the time of a song
To hear how their heart strings play along
The #needle clicks into place on the record. The speakers play the greatest hits of Green Day. The golden hour illuminates the stained glass across the living room. The smell of green peppers sizzling on a skillet. The warm sun rusting the fur of a sleepy black cat in his hammock.

I don’t know if “opportunist” is the right word to describe her: she had a twinkle in her eye every time we were chased by the vanguard and she giggles when we’re cornered.
Maybe she’s an adrenaline junky? She’s always bored of the quiet nights.

#Flush to the wall, the two doors showed no handle, and no break in the wall design. The only reason he knew that this was in fact a door was thanks to his classmate, who he watched sneak inside.

The subtle scent of wild green on the breeze, water chuckling on the riverbed.
Drinking in the colors of summer, shaded under the canopy of trees, beneath the midday sun.
Floating on a paddle board, a cold drink on hand and the Bluetooth speaker playing

#Galumph through the trees
Ye goliath of rock
No scent in the breeze
But razing path you walk
We hunt through the trees
The raging beast amok
This night you will cease
The final arrow stuck

#cloak and dagger

In Forge and tong

This fire forsaken

In forger’s song

Helm and hammer

The Rite of wrong

This promise engraven

On bloodied gong

Perhaps my dreams are #fool hearted ambitions
Maybe my musings are misinformed missives
I don’t doubt that, despite my desperate decisions

These theatrics of the theoretical and ethereal
Are my way of wandering through the wonderings
In acquisition of the curious and curating my queries

#Quit while you’re ahead
Quit losing your head
In the clouds o’er head”
That’s what they all said
What?
Pick up both my feet?
Pick up off the street?
Bootstraps all I need?
They say “yes indeed”
No
You don’t get this mess
You don’t get the stress
“This is for the best”?
Say it with your chest

listening to the glass-patter of a dark stranger outside; bits of ice hurled toward me from new wintertime violence. i'm ataraxically satisfied w/ the delusion that it's someone who wants my attention. and i, lost in the oneiric fantasy, believe there are those who care

Magpie’s flight felt so #sweet after the overhaul at the space station in the Glhrrg territories, a region of stars kept under tight control and defended from TechDrones.

It cost more than Dylan would have preferred, but Magpie practically glided through the stars like a new machine.

Following the railroad tracks is the path he chose to take to escape the mountains.
Nice and flat, away from the highway and its multitude of prying eyes.
The views are great up here anyway, he thought, only downside is the occasional high speed train.

Can you #guess the reason that I’m here?
Can you guess the reason for my fear?
I can see what your future holds, seer
I can see that cruel fate for you, dear
Can you flee before your doom draws near?

How do you count the hours of a day without a spinning planet?
How do you #measure the progress of a year without a planet in orbit?
If you are stranded on a moon, no planet or star to orbit
How do you survive?

“What a weird painting to buy at a yard sale.”
“Estate sale,” she clarified, “there is a difference.”
“I’m sure,” her brother sneered, “I don’t expect mom to want that anywhere in the foyer.”
She pulled the painting from him, “it’s not going in the foyer; there’s something inside of it.”

#Resolution of the blurred
Revolution of the world
Relation is unhindered
Recognition is unfurled

Reconciliation is abound
Reconnection is in sound
Recondition the profound
The reunion is inbound

Dylan zoomed in on the frame as Magpie idled in orbit around a planet in a far-off system. He could see something, but the #resolution proved lacking.

Could it be the fabled lost freighter, the Agamemnon? If he could get his hands on that, the rewards, & fame, would be massive and welcome.

Rory had to find a #resolution to the conflict between the warring brothers that would satisfy both parties &, considering both parties wanted to rule the kingdom, the answers were not immediately apparent.
He wondered if he could cut the kingdom in half? Or whether the game would allow it?

The screen flashed, requiring Dylan to enter the code. It didn’t even give a #prompt, a sign of what the system needed to allow him access.

He needed to unlock the security features or he would never get access to the cargo sitting in the hold, waiting for him to salvage it and make money.

The Vah-Shti people had a different sense of #decorum and required tribute of words before they would ever deign to conduct business transactions.

Dylan had checked the Inter-Gal information hub and had immersed himself in the culture as much as he thought he needed. Hoped he needed.

#Decorum was not something that they were used to, having only arrived in the metropolis this morning.
Uniformed persons, saluting an unfamiliar pose as they walked through the hallway above the street.
The large doors were pushed open by two uniforms, making way to the bright amphitheater #vss365
