Hey guys, I found this weird geometric object floating in space. Should I touch it?

I may be misremembering how grey her hair is.

If you ever find yourself in an Alastair Reynolds novel: try transitioning.

It will increase your survival odds from ~3% to as high as 25%.

me and my sick idea of making a revelation space playing deck.

of course, I've started with Triumvir Ilia Volyova of the lighthugger Nostalgia for Infinity

this woman is more than I could ever dream to see in any sci-fi series

The moment I knew I'd love the Revelation Space books is when, to save herself from falling to death through a several kilometer long elevator shaft, Volyova flies the ship up and down until her falling speed is close to zero when she gets back to solid ground.

This requires trial and error, of course, so it was a very abrupt up and down. She still made it out with only a broken leg!

Her attempted murderer, however, was crushed to goo in the hallway he threw her from.

Crushed to goo via spaceflight. Wonderfully brutal

*listening to Revelation Space and remembering that one book with the guy who never aged but never slept and he was helped by a crew of trans human salvagers*

…I wanna be a sentient swarm of bees… I bet they never get headaches

What if we were the only crew alive and awake on a 4 km tall gothic nightmare spaceship hugging light speed, on a decades long likely fruitless quest, both haunted by cybernetic and metaphorical ghosts of our pasts and long gone alien civilizations? And we were both girls ;)

#revelation space #the nostalgia for infinity remains the coolest fucking spaceship in fiction

The trouble with the dead, Triumvir Ilia Volyova thought, was that they had no real idea when to shut up.

Perhaps all the snake was interested in was finding a nice tall tree to curl itself around, so that it could give up this tedious business of having a brain and having to move around.
