humanity

The evolution of humanity, from one advancement to the next.

Musculus Misadventures
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. I tried to push the stupid thought out of my mind. Now was not the time for all the trivial blasts of information my mind was so used to spewing. A brief image of my mother fluttered through my mind before I forced myself to open my eyes. They closed again involuntarily as the sound came through my com.link. Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space… Or so they say. They were probably ignorant of the fact that we have com.links built into our suits. His scream was truly deafening.

Look to the Stars
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. But if you could, what would it sound like? A blood-curdling yell? An anguished wail? The plaintive cry of a creature in pain, lost and alone?

Life in the Stars
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. Once upon a time, nobody knew this. Space was unexplored and unknown. Now, we have populated the stars. Humanity has expanded long beyond Earth. Mars, the Moon... and a colony in space. Miners, living on converted ships mining minerals on asteroids for the rest of humanity to exploit.

Repression and Robots
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. Just to be safe, Jane always made sure that only Rosie was in the house while she screamed her frustrations. No point in upsetting the rest of the family, after all. If Rosie heard her, she never said anything about it, so the tradition of letting the vacuuming robot drown out her shouts and sobs slowly became habit.

Breathe
Chapter One Nobody can hear you scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. Of course, that’s a lie or, at least, misleading to the maxstax. Certainly not the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the “so-help-me-God” pravda, capital T, truth.

The Law of Mother
“Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say,” Taley argued, wiping their greasy fingers together over the plate of fries before them.

The Starlet
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. If a bear shits in the woods and nobody sees it, did it really happen? If a woman wails in space and nobody’s around to hear it, did she really lose the love of her life?

The Word of an Artificial God
Chapter 1 Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. But, for the first time in his life, Ponticus felt no fear. Despite his status as a stowaway on a military cruiser hurtling towards its destination amongst the great unknown of the cosmos, he was at peace. He knew that under the unprecedented guidance of Maiiyah, all of life’s prodigious mysteries would unravel for him, and armed with that knowledge he need not fear the vacuum of space, or whatever awaits him at his destination.

New Worlds
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. The quantum mechanics seem to evade the highest and best minds. But, We, are Here to impart that the structures of life Here, can be altered with the correct application. There are knobs, dials and switches.

Carrier lost
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. It’s one of those trite aphorisms that means nothing of course, hearkening back to the times of organic matter and bodies that compressed gasses and passed them through pressurized tubes across membranes that controlled the vibrations in the gaseous material and transmitted sound. Sound. Imagine that. Sound…

Tight Fit - Chapter 1
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. Ray Turner remembers this phrase over and over again, on loop, as he quickly gathers himself from bed to answer the Major Brigadier’s urgent 4AM distress call.

The Second Space Race
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. In fact, they’re banking on it. It was around the turn of the millennium that the second space race started. The ultra-wealthy – the moguls, the royals, the oligarchs – mainly men, competing against each other about whose rocket ship is bigger – and stronger, and faster, and better, and carbon-neutral, of course. They had already conquered the seas with their superyachts, the skies with their private jets, and society with their economic and political clout and corruption. Space was next.
