[Liv and Chelsea are sat outside the door, staring forward. The noises from inside are getting progressively louder, some laughing and some audio from people playing games can be heard.]
Chelsea: It isn’t your fault, you know?
Liv: [upset] Well…
[Liv looks over to Chelsea and shrugs.]
Liv: [upset] Does it matter?
Chelsea: Well… yeah, it does, quite a bit I would think.
Liv: [upset] Well not if that’s what he thinks. Hell, I know that it isn’t just him…
[Chelsea looks over at Liv.]
Chelsea: [confused] What do you mean?
[Liv sighs.]
Liv: Leigh blames me.
Chelsea: [defensive] Oh, he does not blame you! He’s still recovering, just… just trying to get an answer, y’know?
[Liv looks to Chelsea.]
Liv: [confused] No?
[Chelsea sighs, looking around and thinking.]
Chelsea: [thinking] Um… okay, gimme some time…
Liv: It’s fine. Y’know, I’ll… I’ll live, I guess.
Chelsea: Yes you are.
[Liv stares at Chelsea who gets a small smile on her face.]
Liv: Proud of yourself?
Chelsea: [chuckling] Yep.
[Chelsea continues to chuckle, Liv laying against the wall. After a few seconds, she starts to chuckle.]
Liv: [chuckling] Okay, I kinda like that.
[Chelsea smiles.]
Chelsea: Good. You’re so much better when you aren’t being miserable.
[Liv nods a bit.]
Liv: [worried] Um… be honest with me.
Chelsea: Always.
Liv: [worried] If I hadn’t thrown this party, do you think that Tracey would be alive?
[Chelsea stops herself from talking.]
Chelsea: [worried] Um… I’ll be honest, you seem like you’re already set on an answer.
Liv: [upset] Just a little bit.
[Chelsea budges a little bit closer to Liv.]
Chelsea: Look, it’s not your fault! It’s as much your fault as it is mine, which it is not!
Liv: [upset] I know! I know, just… it’s the stupid party. I started the party, meaning that Tracey came. If she hadn’t come then she wouldn’t be in that situation and she wouldn’t be dead.

[Chelsea nods, thinking.]
Chelsea: Yes, but… BUT she might have still gone that way even if you hadn’t thrown that party! Or maybe something else would’ve- know what, I don’t wanna think about it. But you get what I’m saying.
[Liv nods back, looking up.]
Chelsea: [worried, annoyed] Okay, what else is bothering you?
Liv: [confused] What?
Chelsea: [worried, annoyed] Well I’m not gonna act like I’m some sorta master of psychology, but you are still looking… mopey.
Liv: [confused] Mopey?
Chelsea: [worried] Well I don’t wanna say miserable again!
Liv: [defensive] I’m fine, really. Just… christ, do you know what time it is?
[Chelsea shrugs.]
Chelsea: Can’t check, phones still tied up with the present day so…
[Liv nods, sighing. It cuts to Sissel running down the street. He turns through a corner and runs to a number 14 house. He stumbles up and quickly knocks on the door, hitting it seven times. Sissel stops and shakes himself a bit. He wipes blood off his nose again.]
Sissel: [quietly] Calm… calm… S-stop being like this…
[Sissel takes one deep breath as the door opens, immediately drawing his attention to the woman in the doorway. She’s in her 50’s, with a red flowery shirt on and trousers. Her hair is short light brown and she wears glasses. Upon opening the door she sees Sissel and looks at him in confusion.]
Woman: [confused] Hello?
Sissel: [panicking] Hi. Sorry, um… Tracey, I’m a friend of Tracey’s, is she in?
Woman: [confused] Well no, she’s at a party. Are you okay?
Sissel: [panicking] Fine! Yeah, um… hey, what time is it?
Woman: [confused] Just let me check…
[The woman pulls herself into the building, Sissel taking a few deep breaths. It cuts to Liv and Chelsea again as a man walks by. He’s wearing a black hoodie and beanie, covering his hair. Chelsea waves over at him.]

Chelsea: [loud] Excuse me, mate?
[The man turns to them.]
Chelsea: [loud] Got the time?
[The man nods, checking a watch on his wrist.]
Man: [loud] 10:28.
[Liv immediately pulls herself to her feet, panicking. Chelsea does the same, looking at Liv.]
Chelsea: [panicking] Um...
Liv: [panicking] We need to get Sissel.
[Liv runs off in the direction that Sissel went, Chelsea tailing behind her. She turns back to the man, incredibly confused.]
Chelsea: [shouting] Thank you!
[Cuts back to the woman at the door, now coming back and finding Sissel, trying to remain calm.]
Woman: [confused] Nearly half past.
[Sissel’s face drops, breathing speeding up slightly.]
Sissel: [panicked, stuttering] Half-half nine, right?
Woman: [confused] No, about ten.
[Sissel nods slowly, breathing getting more intense. He starts backing away slightly.]
Woman: [worried] Are you okay? Are you on something?
Sissel: [panicking] Well I’m barely gonna sleep for two months, so that’s getting to me a touch. Thank you. Stay safe.
[Sissel starts running down the street again. He looks towards the direction he
came, where Liv and Chelsea are, and stops.]
Sissel: [panicking] There’s no time… there’s no time.
[Sissel turns and looks towards a road surrounded by trees. He takes another deep breath and starts sprinting in that direction.]

Galactic Economics
Humanity enters the galaxy and makes First Contact, only to begin to realize that not everything is at it seems. It appears that the galactic alien community has forgotten to invent some rather important economic concepts that human civilization has taken for granted. This is a look at a hypothetical galactic scale barter economy, how that would work, or how as one of our main characters Sarah realizes... it doesn't. And as the galaxy falls apart at the seams, it's up to the best and brightest in humanity to put things back together. Story contains a lot about markets, logistics, development, and the best and worst of human history. Not so much Space Marines nuking aliens. If you enjoyed the trade negotiations and Senate politics in the Star Wars prequels, and wished that there was an entire standalone story consisting solely of those parts, this might be for you! Galactic Economics is also posted on reddit here.

Homeland
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER -- In Cory Doctorow’s wildly successful Little Brother, young Marcus Yallow was arbitrarily detained and brutalized by the government in the wake of a terrorist attack on San Francisco—an experience that led him to become a leader of the whole movement of technologically clued-in teenagers, fighting back against the tyrannical security state.A few years later, California's economy collapses, but Marcus’s hacktivist past lands him a job as webmaster for a crusading politician who promises reform. Soon his former nemesis Masha emerges from the political underground to gift him with a thumbdrive containing a Wikileaks-style cable-dump of hard evidence of corporate and governmental perfidy. It’s incendiary stuff—and if Masha goes missing, Marcus is supposed to release it to the world. Then Marcus sees Masha being kidnapped by the same government agents who detained and tortured Marcus years earlier.Marcus can leak the archive Masha gave him—but he can’t admit to being the leaker, because that will cost his employer the election. He’s surrounded by friends who remember what he did a few years ago and regard him as a hacker hero. He can’t even attend a demonstration without being dragged onstage and handed a mike. He’s not at all sure that just dumping the archive onto the Internet, before he’s gone through its millions of words, is the right thing to do.Meanwhile, people are beginning to shadow him, people who look like they’re used to inflicting pain until they get the answers they want. Fast-moving, passionate, and as current as next week, Homeland is every bit the equal of Little Brother—a paean to activism, to courage, to the drive to make the world a better place.
