November 20th Stef jerked awake. She wiped drool from the corner of her mouth, and sat up. Everything was how she’d left it – a semi-dark lab, Jones working on her code, and her hand blue. Everything was so exciting. Everything was so important. Everything was…kind of boring when there was nothing to do. ‘Can […]
November 20th The recruit at the garden’s gate house waved them on as Curt pulled the car into the long driveway. A moment later, the red and white striped pole rose, allowing them access onto the rest of the long, curving road. ‘Do you know everyone?’ Stef asked. Curt shrugged. ‘I try to learn as […]
November 20th Stef slowly got back into her seat, slowly clipped the belt in, and focussed on breathing.

November 20th Taylor shifted to Jones’ lab. The Scholar sat at one of his desks, an oversized pair of headphones over his head, a game on his screen. He stepped forward and growled. Recreational activities were allowed, so long as they didn’t interfere with duty. They were a waste of- Jones hadn’t reacted. He took […]
November 20th There was a hand on her face. Magnolia felt herself waking, ready to attack whoever had managed to catch her off-guard and- The hand was familiar. Fingers she would have known, even with total amnesia. Knuckles that had bruised her countless times, dragging her further and further towards fighting fit and able to […]
