Eternity's social area for most oxygen breathers resembled a park, if it was drawn by a human child with crayons. The trees were purple, the sky was a dull orange with a fake sun crawling across it, and the green area was surrounding by a wide walkway and a series fo smaller kiosks and larger freestanding buildings for restaurants and services (the classic doctor, dentist, the Gneiss filer, which Mallory kept meaning to ask her friends about -- what did they file there?)

It was much larger than an elevator on Earth, with fuzzy walls and floor, something between carpet and fur. She tried not to think about it very often, but just now she realizes it was warm.

returning to my ROOTs, some bookmarks from Liquid Snakes

The morning after the Blackout, as the memers, then the influencers, then the formal media dubbed it, Blake was there to nudge "epidemic of suicide" into the trending topics. The body count was lower than that of the four mass shootings that also occurred that Saturday, but those killings didn't have a photogenic and articular mayoral candidate to Robespierre them into addressing the real threat to public safety.

It was awkward to be so forthright with a stranger, to lust for their approval.

An opaque benefactor loomed behind all the succour and generosity.

a triptych of satisfaction

As this family fingered its scar tissue, tunnelling and scraping and digging so that the seepage could take on a form that they could memorialize and cherish, that Ebonee might pathologize, everyone in this cramped, ornate dining room new this awkward ritual produced an approximation. The dead girl was dead.

Her voice, lowered to a severe, unnatural calm that was soft as the peace right before a thunderstorm, signalled noncompliance was unthinkable...

His face dispensed a confirmation receipt

Streaks of violet and cinnabar sunlight smeared across the windhsield

His friend was forever privy to some private humor, no matter the situation.

her sciatica was a murmur rather than a siren

His sincerity was disarming

His command of the tiny space was balletic. He bent, pivoted, reached, every movement fluid.

Obsessed with this kitchen renovation where they found a 300 year old well under their kitchen and instead of filling it all in they made it a feature, like it's SO cool this well was so important and then forgotten and now being celebrated as part of the history of this house I love it
