'Would you like economy, standard, #deluxe, super deluxe, or elite, Sir?'
'Economy.'
'Economy means no thrills, purely basic.'
'It's only a 2 hour flight.'
'That's £300. And would you like to upgrade your seat to being inside the aircraft, Sir, for an extra £800?'
'What?'

Coincidence captured. I'm busy editing Between Neon and The Light, my #cyberpunk/#godpunk novel and encountered this chunk that reminded me of this earlier post...
#novel #WIP #amwriting

“Maybe, you should listen to the two of us! He’s using you!”
“Look! He bailed me out in Brazil, and I owe him for it. Besides, it’s good money and most of the time the info’s good.”
“Most of the time? You’re putting both of your lives, Remi’s life at risk for ‘most of the time’? You told me, you got them out, doesn’t that repay the supposed debt?”
His head rocked to the side as if she punched him in the face. “I get it!” Einnar’s fist clenched as muscles rippled. A furious whisper chased her words back to the source. “Do you have any idea how fragging hard it is to get anywhere in this slagfest of a fragging life, much less get ahead? Soon as you catch up on your bills and get the rare chance to celebrate with real food at a real restaurant, boom! Something goes wrong. Then you’re right where you were a few weeks before, screwed, with no money and no means of paying off whatever the frag just happened. If it’s not my leg, it’s Remi’s school loan, or they’re increasing the rent, or you get laid off, or something’s wrong with the roller again, or one of us got sick, or last month this can of chow was only thirty-nine cents and now it’s a credit fragging fifty! Frag!”

I hear birds on the roof
chirping boisterously
reminding me
of the #deluxe times
when you and I
are together
making merry

as nightingales
on nights
share my sorrow
when we're apart

Wonderful!
Many don't know what the word starving is. Those of you who've starved know what I'm talking about. In a world where butter is a luxury lives millions who don't deserve to be there and it's near impossible to escape. No one deserves to go hungry.
Thank you for this!

She lived in a world where #deluxe meant a slice of tomato and real lettuce. He lived in a world where that would be sent back to the kitchen. #vss365

In my mind, research is the seasoning added to the meal that is the story. You need none of it, but it's so much better with the seasoning added.

Poncho Writer @ponchowriter.bsky.social · 9d

Research doesn't necessarily make a good story. And I absolutely cannot help myself.

I am the bolt
Of lightening
Striking jolt
So frightening

I am the you
#Undertone of me
‘Tis true
Time to set free

I am the light
No longer there
Be brave & write to fight
Soar Freebird from shame’s lair

I am the We
One voice
To be
Or not to be

#Undertones of burnt umber,
red, orange, yellow, brown,
a wreath of autumn leaves
adorn the feathers of her Crown.
Celebrations under way,
life is shutting down,
she dances to her inner drum,
to trace before she hibernates.
Six moons hence she'll awaken
to celebrate the Sun.

Of we the people
Dancing
In a frog suit
May justice
And liberty
For all

Be our only

#WIPSnips #ultimate
The syscrak Damien escaped SecureCorp soldiers through the sewers before he found a place to clean up and think only to discover boosters who knocked him out and it's where he meets the Miranda in Between Neon and The Light subroutine Access Denied.
#cyberpunk #godpunk #amwriting

The swirl of abyss and black nightmares ceased. Damien found himself on the cracked concrete floor of a former nightclub. Moisture and rank sewer filth covered his person. He spit out congealed blood and examined the sparse room. A mob of cyber laced, steeled-out, juiced to cyb-heaven boosters relaxed, carried on, and slam danced to the hardcore and overtly loud metal music.
The boss and de facto leader of the gang dragged a slave girl by the hair closer to Damien and lorded over the diminished syscrak. A plethora of the warboss’ many tattoos glowed neon, one of which displayed the number seventeen as a kill counter. If Damien had such a counter, it would read null.
The beast of a man commanded great respect from the horde, due in part to his fanatical aggression but also for the rare talent and capacity for coherent thought amidst the haze of incredible drugs. Despite the dangerous position Damien found himself in, the nomad girl caught his attention. The normally attractive fit figure and lovely façade diminished at the sight of long wavy brown locks caked with blood. Fortunately for the lady, the boosters held aloft reckless violence, hate, and drugs as the ultimate get off, the concept of woman abused in that way held no appeal.
“So yuyu. What tha frag yous is doin in my bat’room, huh?” The deafening concert and associated amiable attitude dimmed when the warboss interrupted the chaos of the slam dancing masses in the graffiti coated room. Damien broke from his daydream of the captive woman and cringed when the crowded room of junk head gang members notorious for violence all turned their attention from the party to him in expectation of a prompt answer.

The warmth and twinkle of the #hearth permeated the Frédéric Chopin filled room. A line of scented candles set her soul adrift as the flickering fairies led her through the house where she found a heart shaped ring of flowers and him on his knee, ring and #deluxe heart offered.

“We’ll begin peace talks when my son arrives. Shouldn’t be long.”
A #deluxe #hearth in the affluent chamber roared and sizzled from the spitted meat as the king’s #lancet removed and offered a beautiful hunk. “While we wait.”
“Delicious, this, what is it?”
“Your son.”

‘’So you decided to go to the party as a vampire?’

‘Yeah. I splurged and got the #deluxe edition at the costume place.’

‘You look good. Do those fangs really work?’

‘Not really. They kinda suck.’

In 1648, the first woman in Massachusetts was executed for witchcraft. Her name was Margaret Jones, and her story inspired my debut novel, The First Witch of Boston. Thrilled to bring her voice to life here on Bluesky. #HistFic #AmWriting #Writingcommunity

His jokes aren't funny, but the drink is free, so she laughs.
"Don't run away," she coos, heading to the ladies.
More bronzer to tan her pale skin, more blush to hide the rotting #undertones. Fresh lipstick for a kiss pressed to his carotid. Blood and bourbon, her favorite cocktail. #vss365

Be warned Divine Comedy has a side effect of encouraging medieval poetic prose for some time. 😉
