Reconstructed Fragments
As your awareness and memory begin to fade back into focus, the first thing that flashes through your groggy mind is his face, the look of him above you while it was happening. The reason it sticks in your mind, you think, is because of how thoroughly...
The Boneheap, Part 4: Out of Control
As the day progressed, and certain things came surging back, Gianna came to a singular conclusion about heat: for the most part, it fucking sucked. Okay, sure, maybe there were some very, very small parts of it that, in a vacuum, could have been...
The Boneheap, Part 3: Preheating

The Boneheap, Part 10: Best-Laid Plans
