Navigating Stories and other stuff

Wading through a huge list of Blog entries in order to read a story, this is... tedious!  We have added a Story Index menu item along the top which allows you to both find any of these stories, as well as read them through, start to finish, in a more orderly, and hopefully less tedious manner.  Moving forward, every…

Serious Question about Reproductive Freedom

I would rather work on stories, but this is a rare blog, from thoughts surfacing as I wrote the prologue to 2084 hen gase. In modern thinking, reproductive freedom is a right given to a woman to decide the destiny of the fetal tissue in her body, or whatever term you want to use to…

2084 Mono, Ch. 29

sand, bits, zip ties...

Early the next summer, our not so little Violet, we did celebrate her 5th birthday. I guess this new planet had slightly different solar days, years etc., but we didn't pay any attention to that. It didn't matter anyway. Daisy and I knew we were not aging (thanks to using the Portal in Equestria(1)), so…

It is hard to know exactly what to include, trying to record the passage of a number of years... Each year, each day really was amazing in its own way, as we together, Daisy and I and our precious Violet, scrambled through each day, like every ant around us for the most part. The same…

When I woke up the next morning, Daisy was sitting next to me, well I was laying on my side sort of curled around her, and she was nursing Violet. We were both on our blanket on the floor in the shower room. And this was down in Service; it wasn't too hot, too cold... But…

Those last few months before Violet came were increasingly more difficult for my treasure, and I remembered that from when we had... Ariel... Feeling amazing became almost impossible, what with Violet sitting on, stretching into, pushing together, kicking, well, everything. Neither of us were bothered by that, by Violet, and we both gladly, joyfully accepted…

Having Daisy with me, well always close, always nearby, that didn't make the cold any less cold. But I don't think the cold mattered as much. Before I got my Daisy back, I remembered crawling through each evening, focused only on curling up under my old mat blanket; of course I didn't bother scrounging when…

Princess 2, Ch. 11, An Unexpected Visitor

Well, it makes sense that I do this chapter. I am my friend Princess' Princess. I know that sounds funny, but I am a real Princess named Twilight(1). I absolutely love reading, and have a library getting full of amazing books. After finishing all my Princess chores for the day, I love to stay up…

2084 Mono, Ch. 24

sand, bits, zip ties...

For the next 7 or 8 days, things seemed to calm down again, I think. It was freezing cold of course, and so we made the best of our old mat plus zip ties blanket at night. Everyone else in the mono had to endure the same cold. Well, Daisy and Violet were warm; that…

2084 Mono, Ch. 23

sand, bits, zip ties...

Well, I was tired when Daisy and I fell asleep the night before. On top of that, I had this circular dream about sleeping in stores for only a few hours, then Service would wake me up, barely functional, and had me probe and wait, then when I was exhausted, Service sent me back to…

2084 Mono, Ch. 22

sand, bits, zip ties...

Well, maybe things did calm down for us after that, for quite a few days anyway. Daisy was already pregnant, a fact that alternately made us both want to laugh or cry... Oh, Ariel... And Daisy being pregnant did free us both to give, so amazingly to each other, and I think we both enjoyed…

2084 Mono, Ch. 21

sand, bits, zip ties...

Well, we weren't trying to sleep in freezing air in our mono. We were on a blanket in the back of stores down in the Service complex, warm, quiet, together, close, alone... We fell asleep quickly. At some point Daisy moved; Daisy's head was on my chest, her leg up over mine, and I think…

2084 Mono, Ch. 20

sand, bits, zip ties...

I remember thinking, last night as I drifted off to sleep, that just maybe, things would calm down for us now, for Daisy and I, and... Well, I think a good night's sleep, maybe a bunch of them, that would be good for us. Probably near midnight... My HD snapped on 100%, waking me immediately.…

2084 Mono, Ch. 19

sand, bits, zip ties...

Well, it wasn't, we weren't on a blanket snug and warm in the back of stores, but I think we both slept ok. Both our mats open though, I reacted right away as soon as I woke up. Daisy giggled even as tears slowly fell, then she hugged me tightly. "I missed you so much..."…

2084 Mono, Ch. 18

sand, bits, zip ties...

Snug and warm and alone, buried in the darkest part of stores, we cried together over the impossible for a long time, then finally fell asleep hugging, either very late or way too early in the morning. I dreamed about Daisy, her smile, her laugh, her eyes, her tender giving spirit... the millions of other…

Memories that I had buried... had to bury... We were still living at home. Well, we didn't have much left anyway. Princess Twilight(1) and her amazing girls had long since evaporated, on both sides of the Portal, taking an amazing oasis of True Friendship with it. Well, Summer and I, we still lived... that, and…

2084 Mono, Ch. 16

sand, bits, zip ties...

Of course Service woke us up the next morning, a little early again. Still on her back, Daisy hugged my head to her bare chest right away, said "Bah, blocking" then laughed, but held me close a few minutes. Than Daisy next said quietly "shower please". I smiled, sighed, didn't block... I started working with…

2084 Mono, Ch. 15

sand, bits, zip ties...

I think we both slept ok. Daisy was stretched out basically on top of me, under my old mat plus zip ties blanket. We kept each other warm... and comfortable... But I think that only worked because two nights ago, we had given each other... not blocking... When I woke up, it was a little…

2084 Mono, Ch. 14

sand, bits, zip ties...

Service woke us up at the normal 'early' the next morning. I was groggy right away, and not real happy about being awake, but Daisy must have known. She propped her head up, smiled, then said gently "I think the others will be here soon." We had spent the night here in the Service complex,…

2084 Mono, Ch. 13

sand, bits, zip ties...

I had fallen asleep with my head on Daisy's chest. When I woke up the next morning, I was on my back, and her head was on my chest. I don't know how she did that... And when I woke up, she was smiling, at me, and very quietly said "blocking" when she saw me…

2084 Mono, Ch. 12

sand, bits, zip ties...

Ok, so it wasn't stinking hot in the mono building, and Daisy had... blocking... taken care of me... more blocking... yesterday. Well, I gave first, then she... blocking... The next morning, Service woke me up at the normal time. I was smiling right away, blocking... But I went to wake Daisy up. The minute she…

2084 Mono, Ch. 11

sand, bits, zip ties...

Spending 4 hours in the middle of the night working on, really guessing about how to help Service, that wasn't my idea of fun. Somebody else picked the timing for this Service update, and Service didn't even know when, until it was happening. Still, we somehow helped Service protect itself, so it could continue protecting…

2084 Mono, Ch. 10

sand, bits, zip ties...

I think we actually headed to the mono a little late, and so we both got to sleep a little late. It wasn't so stinking hot, so I fell asleep pretty fast. Maybe Daisy's head on my chest helped... blocking... Some time in the middle of the night, my HD snapped on, 100%, waking me…

2084 Mono, Ch. 9

sand, bits, zip ties...

Maybe a week passed, but I think we were developing a workable routine, trying to get back to normal, trying to find it even, whatever that was supposed to be. We both worked in, on and with Service during the day. And I explained to Daisy why I never tell anyone else about working in…

2084 Mono, Ch. 8

sand, bits, zip ties...

We crawled onto this spring and wire bed early, hopefully to get to sleep a little earlier, since we had to get up a little earlier... It was still stinking hot at first, so it took me a while to finally fall asleep. And, to top all that off, I kept having these slow, long…

2084 Mono, Ch. 7

sand, bits, zip ties...

I woke up a little early the next morning. Maybe I was getting adjusted to waking up the time that Daisy normally tried to sneak out ahead of the zombie rush. I turned on HD just to check what time it actually was, and... right away... [Service supervisory window] "Work slot adjustment, please come to…

2084 Mono, Ch. 6

sand, bits, zip ties...

Daisy woke me up the next morning early as she climbed across the spring and wire thing, and over me. Actually, I woke up right before she did that, I don't know. And I did ask her to be careful again as she got her hinkle out from under mine, and she did have to…

2084 Mono, Ch. 5

sand, bits, zip ties...

Well, she was gone when I woke up the next morning. How she could climb over me and get off this spring and wire thing without waking me... At first, I was relieved that she was gone, but then just a little bit fearful, for her that is. One night in a mono would not…

2084 Mono, Ch. 4

sand, bits, zip ties...

It must have been many days after Becky smacked me, I don't know. It is easy to lose track. We never had issues after that, of course. I think she realized I was overworked maybe. Or maybe she had recently watched a vid about... Or maybe she was just having a bad day. Here, that is…

2084 Mono, Ch. 3

sand, bits, zip ties...

I didn't eat "food" the night before, so I hoped I would sleep well, or at least tolerably that night. But I ended up having a series of nightmares about some random woman running away, and getting shot or something; it was different every time. And, something horrible would happen, I would almost wake up,…

2084 Mono, Ch. 2

sand, bits, zip ties...

Well, it was late, and I hid behind that low wall until the sun was mostly down. Trying to avoid where I thought I heard the gun-shots coming from, I worked my way to my mono. And I don't know... Someone in something called the un did some calculations or something and decreed that all…
