Subject uncooperative.
Screams constantly.
Moved to basement so servants could work, hoped to sleep, but can still hear through floor and cannot sleep. Nervous tension everywhere. Was attacked on last visit to room, inhumanly strong. Good sign but does not respond to name. Responds to nothing but screams screams screams. I talk. Talk till no more words, but still no response. Just screams. Must be agony. Cannot go on without injuring throat, but has gone on three days now and not grown hoarse, not grown quiet. Fear my procedures repaired throat without repairing mind. Fear mind dying, while body goes on? Must try further experiments. Must try to get response. Must sleep. Must.

Told steward was delirium. Needs dark and no visitors. Quiet.
Obvious lie. Steward’s children, visiting, said sounded like childbirth. Something like, suppose.
Screams all day, and all night. Steward must hear. Will ask more questions. Must sleep. Must watch steward. If gets suspicious may be trouble. Have going into town now for more supplies. Medicine, told him. Medicine and chemicals. New batteries. May stimulate what formulae could not. May inspire suspicion. Must have despite. Must work out how to apply without damage.

I may be falling in love.
Ah but what does it matter. I’m not writing this to anyone, just to put my thoughts on paper. Organize what must be done. Marriage? Wedding Ring? It seems all premature. I’ve only just begun my studies and there is much still to do if I am going to finish university and return to the manor. Father says must have strong foundation in the basics if am going to bring life into the world. Midwives not to be trusted. Science, medicine, germ theory, and all that. Must study, but here I am writing about my feelings because they seem to be overwhelming me.

She’s a beautiful girl. I wish that I could draw her, but I’m no good with the pencil. I think that I would draw her standing in the woods, next to the little creek where we always go walking, maybe under the willow tree in the yellow dress that makes her seem to glow. I wish I could draw her like that, then I could keep her with me always, even when we must part. She doesn’t go to school but says she’d like to. Maybe to become a nurse or a midwife. She knows so many medical students. Her father is a professor at the school, or used to be before he retired. Knows so many funny things, very different from his wife who is quiet and unassuming except when she catches me walking with her daughter. Then very excited, almost to the point of inarticulation which always embarrasses Emily.
Emily.
Is it too early to get a ring? Perhaps father would know. Should speak to him but would tell me must focus on studies. Learn much so that I might do much. High expectations. Awards.
Awards.
All want is Emily.
But she may not want the same. May just enjoy our walks.
Must think on this, and study, meantime, so that I will not disappoint her with a husband who is not as clever as her father, but must, maybe, ask what she would look for in a husband.
No, too bold. Must be circumspect. What sort of future do you see for yourself? What sort of… who? Perhaps me? Would make me very happy, but would I make her? Not if I cannot make her happy, and comfortable is happy, mother used to say, before she died. Wish she were here. Would ask her what she would say.
Perhaps is not too early for a ring.
But is too late for shopping.
Candle almost out. Will sleep for now. Think on it in the morning, after classes.
Wish me luck.
Self.

Distant Leaps to Circinus
A dark fantasy story that takes place on a reborn Earth. "With all the planets in the universe, it just had to be this one." Not many thoughts came to mind when scientists said they could provide the Earth with nearly infinite power. Humans could only think about the future, after all: they could travel to the farthest reaches of space, never worry about their electric bills again, and give rise to new and innovative technologies. With such good outcomes on the horizon, there was no way humanity would sit idle; instead, they studied perhaps the most powerful entity in the entire Milky Way. It seemed that, after its appearance decades ago, the strange and unmoving black sphere was something of a godsend. There will always be a reason for these things. With one touch, our very reality was but a grain of sand in an hourglass. In an instant, the Earth was gone - replaced by something… different. More than a century later, Earth’s remains have reformed into a completely different beast - a planet both alive and dead at the same time. Physics that were once understood no longer made sense, giant land masses floated in the sky, and billions of people fought for their very survival. Work, sleep, and play were no more; it was time for the world, Circinus, to reign. The birth of Circinus could only be the beginning. The powerful yet ever-elusive black sphere seemed to watch the world from afar - casting light for those below, but never truly emitting light from itself. What does it all mean for the children of Circinus - children born with eyes that seemed to stare into God’s heart?
