A Lack of Progress
“Corruption.” It was such a nice, compact word as presented. A perfect ideal, and being swayed from it.आचरण was less so. ācaraṇa was somthing to be maintained. That required effort. Perfect conduct was not a foundation to build a world on – you can’t expect another man to be better than you could possibly be.… Continue reading

does this work for phone formatting? No.
“Ok. So what have you actually been working on lately?” The message blipped on Usha’s phone while she was typing away at work. Trying to track down some “miscellaneous” expenses in the garage. Too many. “Why. Can’t I just show you next time I’m home?” She waited a few minutes before checking it. Virika. The… Continue reading

Sister Reduced, part 9
“I’ve been wondering” Usha started. “What. You’re not supposed to make people ask for questions. What.” This was, perhaps, Virika’s pet peeve. “Why don’t you go back to your older characters. Springa? Tapedeck? Revamp them.” “I’ve sort of tried to? Its all too superhero-y. Believe it or not, I’ve been trying for more realism lately.… Continue reading

Taking on Debt
It could have been worse.Sardari kept telling herself this, because there was nothing else to say about it. Nothing else to do about it, beyond what she was doing at the moment. She could have run from the flood. Gathered up her ephemera, moved it to higher ground. Of anyone she had the power.But there… Continue reading

Time, not Lost, but Used Elsewhere
