mom caught me with carla inside that sticky sweet june that made me think that summer was a girl with a sunburn smile and eyes like parched dirt. it starts with the sereneness of the stagnant lake water, releasing soft whimpers as the boat leisurely swims through its dross colored tranquility.
i sit at one end of the canoe (that we found at the docks, and with a saccharine giggle carla decides that we should "borrow it!") and body propped up against the edge, trying to seem cool as cigarette smoke curls out of my mouth.
carla sits at the other edge, a luxurious smile on her decadent face. a ruby robe of silk covering a black bathing suit spilled around her body like the river itself. she lays on her stomach elegantly, her head on the bow of the boat propped up by her tawny arm. her fingers skim the warm waters underneath her, dancing against the repose of the lake.
she's not looking at me, but i am: i always find myself admiring the way lovely blonde curls melt alongside tawny skin. she turns the sun into an artist; and on its blue canvas she causes erratic streaks of cerise and orange. she lets out a girlish sigh that makes my blood boil.
a long story cut short, by a mother ransacking for her missing son; rejuvenated anxiety brought up her throat like bile— mom found us swimming in love. my hand was on her hips and she was kissing me so gently, an archangels kiss that makes the magisterium blush, that makes me bleed into her arms.
another short story? mami wasn't fond of the raw effeminate sinners smile that i carried on my face as i waved carla goodbye, trudging through the muddy marsh drunk with love and internally bleeding. in fact, she was mortifyingly jealous that i could love through cynical clove of darkness that followed the two of us around like flies in a morgue. it's not my fault she feels dead inside.
// thank u sm for 900 !! i honestly don't deserve this <33

The Cosmic Interloper
Synopsis: A cyborg transhuman escapes her corporate indenture and through unfathomably unlikely circumstances, she ends up in a fantasy world of full of unique magic, angry people with sharp implements, and the whole flavor-spectrum of divine entities. Hilarity ensues. Features: - No blue boxes or cultivation, this is not a LitRPG nor about martial arts - Hard-ish Sci-Fi meets hard-ish magic - Generally trying to keep this "rational" Rationale: My primary goal with The Cosmic Interloper is to write something that I myself would enjoy reading. Of course, that’s not the only motivation, but I think it’s the most important one for me to keep in mind, especially as the author. In fact, this whole story came about because after consuming oodles of fiction, I found myself craving a very specific type of story which I couldn’t find many examples of. Then I asked myself, “why not write it myself?” and here we are. Disclaimer: In general, while I’m not writing a comedy, I do intend for this story to be funny and a bit wacky or absurd. That said though, I am using this story as a vehicle to explore some potentially dark topics including (but not limited to) slavery, speciesism/racism, and existential questions of self, consciousness, and identity. Still, I’m going to leave the “traumatizing content” tags off, because I don’t feel that what I’ve written so far (or plan on writing) exceeds the threshold that would be necessary for me to tag it thusly. Also, [insert your favorite boilerplate “views expressed” disclaimer here]. I shouldn’t need to say this, but the main character can be wrong on occasion (gasp!) and the way she views the world is not the objective truth (if such a thing even exists).
