Today’s #WIPSnips is “ego,” which I have a lot of in my science fiction/crime story 😅 A bit of a longer one today, from my drug lord villain’s POV. Poor Machiavello. Drugs are great for controlling people, producing competent workers is another story #writesky

“You asked for updates, and I have an update,” St. James muttered, his eyes glassy and unfocused. Machiavello wondered if he was stupid enough to have gotten high, if the man had stormed off and taken Eros to soothe his own ego after the lashing Specter had given him. “Her communicator was found discarded in a recycler on the inner ring. And—”

“Yes?” he prompted.

“I’m not feeling well,” St. James mumbled, almost to himself, “Some of Zohar’s men are feeling it too, weird sensations—”

“I don’t really give a shit how you’re feeling,” Machiavello snapped, pointing his finger at the screen. St. James was lucky they weren’t speaking face to face, he would’ve had Amira haul the man up by his pretentious, overly decorated lapels. “You’re a cop, aren’t you? Do your fucking job and find this missing person. Or do you only know how to accept bribes?”

einstein sent this to curie in 1911 when she was being harassed by tabloids. it contains everything you’d want in such a letter: (1) your haters are trash (2) you’re a baller, a true queen (3) i have determined the statistical law of motion of the diatomic molecule in planck’s radiation field 🧪⚛️

Prague, 23 November 1911
Highly esteemed Mrs. Curie,
Do not laugh at me for writing you without having anything sensible to say.
But I am so enraged by the base manner in which the public is presently daring to concern itself with you!? that I absolutely must give vent to this feeling. However, I am convinced that you consistently despise this rabble, whether it obsequiously lavishes respect on you or whether it attempts to satiate its lust for sensationalism!
I am impelled to tell you how much I have come to admire your intellect, your drive, and your honesty, and that I consider myself lucky to have made your personal acquaintance in Brussels. Anyone who does not number among these reptiles is certainly happy, now as before, that we have such personages among us as you, and Langevin(3) too, real people with whom one feels privileged to be in contact. If the rabble continues to occupy itself with you, then simply don't read that hogwash, but rather leave it to the reptile for whom i

Watching a child at the farmers market throwing a tantrum over how much he loves bread… should be clarified that he has a bread roll in his hand & occasionally stops screaming to take a bite

Can’t stop thinking about yesterday when me and my friend pulled up at a red light & this 12-ish year old kid pulled up alongside us on his bike, popped a wheelie, and then turned his helmet to make sure we saw the “I ❤️ hot moms” sticker on his helmet lmfao 😭

Happy Valentine’s Day! 💌🕊️💘 A less sweet #WIPSnips from my SF/crime story. Nessa has convinced Specter’s child spy to help her sneak into Specter’s office to look for clues re her father’s disappearance. Unfortunately for them, Specter came back early and knows something is off 🫣 #writesky

“Hiding in the bathroom, little pisher?” she asked, kicking Lyle’s discarded pile of blankets. They slid across the tiled floor, hitting the wall and folding in on themselves in a tangled heap.

Nessa screwed her eyes shut, afraid that the extra adrenaline from seeing Specter would cause her body to react and give away her location. She heard Specter climb up onto the toilet, her metallic boot soles clanging against the porcelain. The rusted hinge on the vent door creaked as she opened it.

“When I find you,” Specter called into it, her voice sweetly melodic, “I’m going to skin you alive and turn you into a new leather jacket.” Her words echoed through the vent, distorting into an eerie wail with each successive iteration.
