Sometimes I wonder why I’m drawn to cyberpunk media… and then I realize:
My day job is sitting in front of multiple monitors, hyped up on stimulants, working 8* hours while i zone out to breakcore and write code. A good chunk of my free time is dedicated to repairing and working on the old computers I have, trying to make them keep up with the ever-advancing tech I can’t afford. I take pills that fundamentally modify my body. Machines constantly monitor my movements and behaviors. There are people I love that I know only because of the animated hunk of metal in my pocket.
i think in a lot of ways, cyberpunk / sci fi capture the absurdity of my day to day. It’s an exaggeration of the fatigue, ecstasy, and nihilism of modern tech.
But also like. We’re not just that. I draw, go to the beach, leave my phone in the car. There’s pockets of nature in this weird hellscape of a city. I talk to people, I love those people. I go to the forest when I can. I have to get out of it sometimes.
Nobody should live on a single axis of existence, yknow? Don’t sell your soul to one thing. Get out, feel the air. Go stare at some bugs. Meet some weird people. Take care of yourself 💜

isn’t it ironic that the only fic where our favorite characters (our darlings) were safe from you killing them off is the one called kill your darlings
(also i’m really excited for the last chapter i hope you have a great halloween)
this was, in fact, intentional :)

When Kate's family leave ended, she was ready to return to work. She missed the lab and her coworkers, but especially Sophie. Who hugged her as soon as she arrived.
Kate expressed her condolences for the loss of her grandmother before they began swapping information about her new baby and Sophie's new husband. Finally, Kate asked, “So did I miss anything here?” and Sophie’s face lit up.
“Last week, they brought in a bunch of new equipment from some government contract, real high-tech looking. But they’ve locked it all in the extraterrestrial area, level five security clearance only.”
Kate froze, thinking of another lab only miles away. What if someone was trying to grow the Mother or something like her here? Determined to investigate, she waited until her boss, Virginia, was on her lunch break, then “borrowed” a key from her to sneak in.
The room was filled with all kinds of devices and monitors, but towards the back stood a large green doorway that seemed to call to her. Knowing she wouldn't have long, she quickly calibrated the machine. Desperately making adjustments until she could hear voices on the other side.
They were hard to hear, and the language was certainly not Simlish but she could make out a female voice. It sounded as if she was giving orders, as other voices occasionally chimed in with short synchronized replies. She was just about to test the talk button when she heard footsteps coming up the hallway.
She shut down the machine and raced back to her station without getting caught. For the rest of her shift, her mind was lightyears away.
At the end of the day, Virginia approached Kate. Her heart started pounding, bracing for a reprimand. Instead, she curtly informed her that she had been promoted. Tomorrow, she would receive her updated security clearance and her new master key.
Kate had to stop herself from laughing.
