Just picked this up today from the post office, but I went through a small decant this past week.
⚠️ TRIGGER WARNING ⚠️ I use the word "soapy" and "powdery" a lot here.
So this is what I would call more of a "blue collar" soapy fragrance because it isn't as fancy as a lot of others I've tried.
My holy grail soapy fragrance, Creeds Pure White Cologne, is way too upscale smelling and expensive to wear in my line of work (police officer) or as a daily fragrance in my opinion. I'll reserve that for spring, special occasions.
Prada Amber Pour Homme and L'Homme smell like luxury soaps. Theirs a sweet, powdery nature to them that isn't in this one.
Prada Infusion d'Iris Cedre and a fragrance like Comme Des Garcon Marieselle are very dry, powdery soapy fragrances with very little sweetness. They smell upscale, but kinda choke me out a little. So they are probably more decant worthy than bottle worthy.
Then theirs the greener, earthier "soapy" fragrances like Creeds Original Vetiver, Mugler Cologne, Tom Ford Grey Vetiver or maybe Green Irish Tweed.
But this one isn't green, isn't very sweet and while it doesn't smell cheap, it doesn't smell overly expensive or fancy.
Think more "Lever 2000" bar soap or "powdered laundry detergent" with this one. Powdered detergent is what the perfumer was going for actually. The inspiration for this fragrance was the workers using a powdered soap to wash their clothes in a canal in Milano, Italy. So again, blue collar, laundry powder is the vibe.
It does open with some beautiful bright citruses, but dries down to a powdery, somewhat watery, detergent vibe. It may not be for everyone, but I intend to wear it as an everyday fragrance for work because I don't want to smell like "Cologne guy" at work everyday, just fresh, clean, well groomed and soapy most days.
The longevity seems to be around 5 hours, with arms length projection for an hour or so. For the remaining 4 hours or so you get a nice skin scent. It isn't a beast by any means, it's a very personal scent, so you may need to over apply initially or reapply throughout the day (if you feel the need). It's relatively inexpensive at only $140 for a 100ml. I've also seen it on sale for as low as $90, so it's more ideal as a daily wear vs. some other niche fragrances, more in line with designer prices.
Presentation is pretty nice too (as shown). Metal, magnetic caps are always a plus.
So theirs my review guys, maybe grab a sample, see what you think of this one.
Have a good one 👍🏼

CASUAL FRAGRANCES https://youtu.be/LnXvl-XTpl8?si=9di0UDnkJjcP4CAy

A few days ago, I received a file from a journalist friend who teaches at a private university in Montevideo. I known this person for years now and the exchange with her on our countless bar nights basically made me want to try to study journalism. After I started my career we became even closer and we shared concerns about the evolution of information, social media and the infamous cerebral callosity we acquired to endure the tragedy.
My friend, let's call her Valeria, was part of a public competition to accompany a minor scientific expedition to the Uruguayan Antarctic base. Her thesis was about investigating how information reception behaves in remote and isolated areas.
I barely read it , but basically tries to show that information circulates and is received in a particular way in these circumstances by a group of unfamiliar people living under extreme climatic and isolation conditions, having as an example, life in submarines and in military bases in Siberia. The Antarctic base gave her the chance to observe some of her postulates up close.
Finally, she was chosen and traveled with this scientific group in a commercial flight Montevideo - Santiago de Chile to later arrive at Punta Arenas and fly to the Antarctic base.
The last communication I had with her before she sent me the almost 90 photographic captures of the Journal, was on March 15, 2024.
We talked over the phone about how the weather was in Montevideo, that it does not stop raining and the cars are practically floating on the streets. She told me that the transport that was going to take them back was having mechanical problems and they would probably have to order spare parts for the plane from Punta Arenas. Then She told me that it is freaking cold down there and his colleagues are all very boring. Nobody has whisky for the evenings. We laughed about that part because I told her to bring at least one bottle of Grappa in her purse.
Before saying goodbye, she told me they had spotted some old metal structures south of the base. The soldiers told her that it was safe to go near that part so she was going to explore them. It wasn't there when they first arrived and that the recent and atypical heat wave probably must have exposed it. I told her to be careful and we said goodbyes.
Three days later I received an email. “Valeria shared a file with you.” As I start to see what it was about she calls me.
“Mauro? MAURO!, can you hear me?” She said in a nervous and excited voice.
“I can barely hear you, what happened?”I asked half asleep, while still lying on my bed.
“Listen to me carefully, don't talk, just listen” I could tell by her agitation that she was walking fast or maybe running. The creaking footsteps in the snow could be heard in the background. in the distance, a catastrophe-type siren was blaring.
“Are you alright? What happened? What's that noise?” I said, now sitting on the edge of my bed.
“I sent you a file. Transfer it to a flash drive, delete history and reset your cell phone, the computer and your email address. I'll explain everything later, it'll be worth it.”
“What? What are you talking about Vale?, what for? Tell me what's going on - I started to yell at her, in slide panic.
“Listen, I found something that is not supposed to exist. In the diary he explains everything. I'm going back to the base, I think someone is following me, I set off an alarm or something. Save that file for me until I get there and remember that... “
There were two loud booms and the sound of water invading the transmission. A choked bubbling and cracking sound reminded me of ice collapsing. My friend had fallen into the water, in Antarctica.
“HEY, are you OK?! What happened?!” - I kept screaming hysterically until the call was cut off.
I looked at my cell phone for a second. My hands were shaking, I tried calling several times but the phone went dead. I looked at the compressed file. I jumped up and ran to the dining room furniture, frantically looking for a white flash drive that had to be in a drawer somewhere. I couldn't find it, so I went back to my desk. I pulled the drawer so hard that it came off the rail and fell to the floor. I started to dig through my belongings on the floor, coins, papers, cards, nothing.
I thought, I struggled to remember where I had fucking put it. Finally I saw my backpack peeking out from behind the desk chair, I jumped on it and in the second small pocket from the inside, there was a cheap white 16G flash drive. I put it in the pc, downloaded the file directly there, took it out and fabric restored the entire system on the computer. I do the same with my cell phone as Valeria said.
At the time I didn't even question if those measures really prevented me from being tracked, and the idea that that was the reason made panic run through my body like lightning. Sitting on the floor of my room next to the mess, my body was numb with tension. After a few seconds, I rebooted my cell phone to try to call Lucia, her sister.
“Hello?”
“Lucia, it's that you? I think something bad happened to Vale, I hear her over the phone as if she fell into the water, and some rumbling. I don't know what I heard, I think she got into some trouble or some place she shouldn't have been - I realized that I was mumble and not saying anything clear. For some reason, I didn't mention the file.
“It can't be Mauro, I just spoke to her on the phone. She was at the airport in Santiago de Chile at the boarding lounge, we talked for about half an hour, she told me she was bringing a fancy bourbon to share and…”
I stopped listening, it didn't make sense, how could it be? what the fuck is going on!
“Mauro, are you ok? Is something wrong? it's too early, are you sure you didn't dream it?”
“Did you talk to her? half an hour ago? But...,” I exclaimed without being able to hide my confusion.
“Are you... sure it was her?”
“Yes, of course you moron, it's my sister! Did you smoke pot again on an empty stomach?”
“No, you're right, nevermind, thanks Lucia, talk to you soon.” I ended the call without letting her say goodbye.
Had I dreamt about it? I erased everything now, how will I know if I dreamt it? I hesitated absurdly.
This is surreal, I thought to myself as I looked at the flash drive in my hand. I refocused my attention and went to the attic looking for my brother's old laptop he left me before going to live in Spain. It was practically useless, but it was enough to see the file. I turned it on, waited for the decrepit Windows XP to load, and put the flashdisk in, opened the compressed folder and found two files.
“LabNotes.pdf”
“PersonalDiary.pdf”
I decided to open the journal first. From what I interpreted from the loading order of the screenshots, after reading it, I opened the image of the last page.
I transcribe as is.
Day 243 of the 2nd mission 10: 40 am. March 12, 2019.
I am the head researcher of the Psychological Area at the UN Antarctic base; I'm currently assigned to Project Sisyphus categorized as the highest classified rank.
This is going to sound crazy, but the person living with my family is my clone.
It still surprises me when I say it out loud, but after being able to replicate the brain-muscular history (a perfect copy of our memory) of any person and having mastered replicating every cell of our bodies at any age, it was only a matter of time before the development of social biotechnology would emerge. Now and by worldwide agreement, as a complete secret.
There is absolutely no shame or a shred of ethics in what we do, there is no longer any constraint on what we can do to the subjects for the sake of research. That haunts me every day.
It all went to shit so fast, I doubt anyone will come to our rescue. The protocol says so, the base in the face of an imminent security risk will erase itself. The structure was designed to collapse methodically following a protocol of incineration and sinking. The immediate perimeter has underwater mines that make the ice collapse almost imperceptibly, but deadly to anyone who tries to leave.
No one can escape from the base, neither the research staff nor the subjects. Our place in the world is already taken.
I only hope that this journal along with my lab notes will be found at some point. I managed to construct a small insulating gasket for it so I trust it will survive in case this part of the building collapses as well.
Please use this data to let the world know what happened here and don't let perversity define us once again.
To my family: I love you and miss you every minute.
B.
At the exact moment I ended the reading I received a video call that made me jump with fright, it is...
Valeria.
With my pulse shaking, I answered the call.
“Hi you! The flight was delayed, can you believe it? This one is absolutely in my top three, worst trips of my life. I'm really hungry and everything is so expensive here. What are you up to? Tell me something, please, I'm soooo bored!”
I looked at her with confusion and I couldn't manage to pronounce words. When I was about to modulate an answer she interrupted me.
“What's the matter Mauro?, are you on pause? Is the signal OK? HELLO! Can you hear me? Can you see me?” She started to walk through the boarding lounge looking for better signal
“Yes yes, Valeria I can hear you.”
She laughed and looked at me with a face between sensual and serious, and continued.
“Do you miss me?” while raising the phone jokingly as she typically does in her selfie pose.
“Valeria, don't you remember calling me earlier today?”
“I? called you? Nop. Why? Ah! By the way, did you know there are penguins in Tierra del Fuego? I would have liked to go and see them.” She continued his verbose conversation in a carefree tone, with her typical hand gestures and playing with his hair.
“Well, at last!” She interrupted herself and shouted, jumping up from her chair.
“We are being called to board, see you in a couple hours!” She said goodbye with a smiling sonority, and began to walk towards the boarding gate.
But at the last second, before ending the call, her gesture changed. She looked directly at the camera with a hardened and emotionless face and almost mechanically, she whispered.
“(I'm going to retrieve that diary).”
My stomach dropped to the floor and I could feel as if my blood was running cold with fear. I could not shake the awful and eerie feeling that this person, who was returning, whom I had never in my life called by her full name, was not my friend.
So, the next couple of hours I put everything in to transcribe the rest of important passages of the diary. Something was compelling me to do it, i can't explain it, Some mix between moral duty, and morbid curiosity. Here is my selection of it.
Lab notes. day 96 of 1st mission 08:00 am December 22, 2016.
Subject JON X012:
First physical assessments: Normal, alert and inquisitive, exhibits some alteration to screens.
We place 100 cc of sedative in room air. The subject attentively follows the narrative of scenario B5 “The last mission”.
The subject responds positively to the premises of the story, where he is asked to address an audience threatened by a natural disaster, convincing them to choose a certain path out of the city.
He offers to collaborate but fails to articulate the message with the power to overcome the simulation.
We resort to pouring 125cc of concentrated Psilocybin into the air as stipulated in the protocol sheet.
The vocal frequency and body language reading receptors in the observation room are activated. The subject manages to formulate a series of premises articulately and with discursive power, circulating around the observation room.
Successful reaction.
We move on to the next stage.
Case is filed under the label “Jobs Project.”
Diary entry: Day 96 of the 1st mission 21:30 pm. December 22, 2016.
Today they transferred subject JON X0012 for psychological evaluation, several in the lab were very anxious about this arrival. I was never the religious type, but I can understand why. Truth be told,
I always imagined Jesus would be taller.
*********
Day 106 of the 1st mission 08:00 am January 02, 2017
Today we received a new lab assistant for the night shift. Much needed as I was covering these shifts myself and am really burned out. The underground operates at full power at those hours, the hum of the machinery becomes unbearable. This must be why the rooms have an insulating structure.
********
Day 112 of the 1st mission 19:00 pm January 08, 2017.
The new integration is not very bright. He labeled the transcripts wrong again yesterday and doesn't seem to fully understand the importance of these. I'm going to have to go through the whole method with him again. I don't have much patience lately, it's not his fault, he seems like a nice guy and it's real that I need a second of confidence. Better train him from now on. Maybe start a sketch of a short explanatory document.
*******
Small introductory guide.
When the subjects conclude the incubation and breeding process (pages 19 to 52 of the manual), that is to say, that they have at least remembered speech and with it, depending on the time in which they lived, reading and writing, they generally begin to perceive themselves. Just before situational curiosity is when the psychology department comes into action. Either to run the “stand by” simulation or the main tests.
In each subject's file is the target of their cloning, the era in which they lived, and the recommended scenarios to trigger the desired response. If the file has X amount on the cover, this corresponds to the generation of the subject, whether it is the first or 10th time it is incubated.
Generally, it takes between 2 and 5 attempts to generate the correct simulation, and administer the appropriate drugs.
It took 5 attempts to come up with the correct amount of methamphetamine that subject AH X005 (Hitler) needed to function in the scenario, as the correct amount bordered on overdose.
Simulations are much easier since the implementation of multisensor AI. We managed to generate almost any scenario including temperature, smells, lights and sounds. We tried not to use familiar ones, as human smells are impossible to replicate. We found this out in a complicated way. We tried to recreate a conversation between RR subject X003 (Reagan) and his mother, but he recognized the fakery by the absence of body odor. His mind collapsed and we had to move him to the Underground. The people in Area C (Private Clients) almost lost a very large Chinese account.
After calibrating the subject, we ran both psychological and behavioral tests, scanned retinas, analyzed blood, as well as vocal and body language. But what has really yielded surprising results are the free interviews. It is amazing what some minds are capable of with the right environmental and chemical stimulation. That's why transcription is vital (!!)
Our area develops BC (Behavioral Algorithms) which are then bought by the private sector, and some government agencies.
To give you some examples: Twitter was an idea of subject JO X008 (Orwell).
Bots in social media and the use of big data was an idea of JG X002 (Goebbels) and KM X014`s worst nightmare (Marx) was bought by Amazon.
It is an arduous process and the success rate is low, but when we achieve the goal per subject, well, these results are a mein part of the latest revolutions of mankind.
So follow the lab rules, never refer to subjects by their actual historical name, and always remember, they are assets, not people.
***********
Day 117 of the 1st mission 16:30 am January 12, 2017.
Today is a rest day all over area D. I miss many things from the old world that I thought I would never miss, taking a bus, standing in line with strangers, and today I miss Sundays. We only have one on the month. So as usual we gather in the rest area to listen to a liberated jukebox that tries to lighten the mood. I know, right? Why I wrote about this “Saturday” photocopy, well besides the same nostalgic drunks, I was approached by a person I didn't recognize.
From what I understood he was a rehabilitated alcoholic, maybe that's why I didn't see him on “Saturdays”. He must be in his 50's, he was portly and wore thick black-rimmed glasses, he seemed to have a slight limp, I noticed it when he went to refill my beer.
I am a very reserved person and find it hard to talk to people. Truth be told, I've lost the desire to talk to people here. What can you actualy fucking talk about here, if it's not about the same thing. Everything revolves around work and some inter-area gossip, which never escalates much.
But yesterday was Clara's birthday and to hide the remorse and sadness of only having shared with her the first 3 years of her life, I had a few too many beers.
We chatted about banal aspects of life in isolation, and the things we miss. For him it was going to the stadium to watch soccer with his grandchildren. I think it was loneliness and nostalgia that brought us together that night.
His name was Sigfried, I don't know if I spelled it right, but it was clearly Nordic, i notice because of some of the words he mixed up with English. He works as the underground level security manager. We all know that it is one of the most restricted areas and what we have learned in these almost 10 years in the project, is that the more restricted, the less questions you should ask.
But that day, I think I felt the urge to hurt myself, to go off the rails, so I asked what we all suspected but no one knew for sure. I asked about the blenders. I wish I hadn't.
************
Day 126 of the 1st mission 08:00 am January 21, 2017.
I almost can't express how furious I am today, but I'm going to try because if I don't, I'm going to punch the new assistant in the face. He has nothing to do with this, he's just mildly irritating.
Anyway, in Genetic Mapping or area A, they approved the incubation of another Anomaly. It seems to be an express request from a major shareholder and there is not much to say. Anomalies are very risky to reproduce, nature is wise, and for some reason it placed them in history moments where they had their limitations.
It seems that after the crisis of 2010 with “The Russian Devil” it is no longer scary enough. New school morons... If they had been there they wouldn't even dare to think about it. I AM FURIOUS.
The arguments are that this case lived longer, that the clone would be in his 70s, and that he possessed noticeably more “civilized” traits. As if the court of the last Zar had not been somewhat civilized.
Personally I think this is a big mistake. Since the discovery that some people possess unknown DNA components and with the 2010 background, they should draw the line. There are certain things, still beyond our ability to understand. But it is delusional of me to think that there are limits, someday the absence of them will consume us all.
************
Lab notes day 142 of 1st mission 08:00 am February 06, 2017.
Final free interview with JON subject X012
Scenario B-24 or “The Dinner Party” Result: Normal.
Notes: Subject is grateful, positive, docile and hopeful for the future. Offers to cook next time by asking for spices and ingredients of typical Hindu dishes.
The subject is directed to the Underground area.
Attached audio for transcription.
Case is filed under the label “Jobs Project”.
**********
Day 142 of the 1st mission 21:00 pm February 06, 2017.
Today was the last session with subject JON X012, I managed to extract the last retinal and body language readings, as usual before sending them to Underground level. We ran the dinner scenario, the truth is that is one of the best simulations we have achieved. The subjects are relaxed resulting in the best free interview environment. This one was no exception, I must say I understand the charm of the “messiah” turned out to be quite an entertaining subject. I hope his next generation will be similar.
**********
Day 152 of the 1st mission 19:00 pm February 16, 2017.
I was tasked with the continuous monitoring of subject NT X004. I am not at all happy with this transfer. First of all, I know nothing about area B of engineering and technology. Secondly, I still think this is a really bad idea.
One of the laboratories has been set up with the essential simulation equipment and personnel. Tomorrow we start with the calibration.
**********
Lab notes day 153 of the 1st mission 08:00 am February 17, 2017.
First interview with subject NT X004, we run simulation scenario 54-A, “Signal from another planet.”
Subject is observed to be receptive at first but quickly changes to paranoid. We administer 300cc of MDMA via air, according to protocol.
We introduce the reconstructed figure of a colleague in a cry for help speech.
The Subject laughs and doesn't believe a word, we move to a physical approach plane,
I volunteer myself with a room operator from the engineering area, we show him unfinished plans of an experimental vacuum propulsion engine.
He laughs again and tells us that we are not who we say we are.
We administer 50cc of DMT and move on to the next scenario.
From the screen an astronaut with non-human features sends a distress signal and intergalactic coordinates.
The subject looks thoughtful, reassesses, picks up the blueprints and begins to shout out values and what appears to be mathematical and physical formulas.
Air is charged with percentages of absolute sedation.
Audio recording is attached.
It is filed under the name “Project SpaceX.”
**********
Day 153 of the 1st mission 21:00 pm February 17, 2017.
I'm not sure what happened today, this is the first time in 10 years that a subject overcame the deception of 3 simulations. We had to place absolute sedation in the air, as risky as we know it is. I recommended that we restart the process from scratch, but it was a resounding no, the client is in a hurry.
I need to get more involved in this case to recalibrate the subject. I don't know if I want to. The words before full sedation still resonate with me. “are you still using DC current? interesting...”
**********
Day 154 of the 1st mission 21:00 pm February 18, 2017.
Something happened, I don't quite know what. The rooms have an emergency lockdown active. Outside hear security personnel mobilizing. I tried the intercom but it didn't work. The insulation prevents my screams from being heard from the outside. If this goes on another day I'm going to break the lock. I'm going to set my backpack to the bare minimum.
**********
Day 157 of the 1st mission 21:00 pm February 21, 2017.
Yesterday I heard explosions in the B area. I couldn't take it anymore and broke the lock. Whatever it was I had to go out and see. The corridors were dark, and the underground buzzer went on, at least that worked.
I went right to the north staircase, down the 4 floors in near darkness, the power was failing. The entrance to the underground area was barricaded but I managed to see a figure peeking out from inside as they felt me making noises.
It was Sigfried, he pointed me in the doors direction and I entered through a heavily armored side door. I was surprised by the immensity of this section, it encompassed a large hall below almost all the sectors of the base. In front of us there were 4 large industrial pipes with switches and multiple smaller pipes coming out of their bases. These were repeated like mosaics throughout the area until they disappeared into the distance in the darkness.
Leaning against one of them were 3 officers in formerly white coats and a nearly dead guard bloodied on the floor. Poor guy, his legs were crushed with his flesh in the open. He was lying in a pool of his own blood.
He had a blank stare and was panting, it seemed from the pale of his skin, that his fate was imminent. My asthma began to pound in my chest sharply, so I reached into my bag looking for my inhaler. I told them between visible gasps of bad breath to please tell me what's happened.
One of the doctors had a badge from area B and another from area E which corresponds to bio-armamentistics. The latter burst into tears and said “We deserve it, every one of us, we deserve it”.
I knew the other guy, he is an engineer in area B. I could hear him babbling almost nonsensically about, as why they never thought about it, an issue with electrical power.
He looked at me carefully as if recognizing me and grabbed me tightly by my jacket pulling me close to his face transformed for the panic.
“He let them out, all of them!” but not only that, no no no no... he told them the truth. Nikola fucking Tesla hacked us and told them the truth.”
He began to laugh frantically with a face of absurdity until he burst into a choked cry. At that moment everything went dark. The emergency lights activated, and from far away and getting closer, along with the emergency sirens that began to sound, we heard a large mass of people screaming and running through the corridors outside.
Sigfried looked at me as they started to pound on the shielded door and said.
“We're fucked.”
**************
Day xx of the second mission, month xx of 2017
“()The industrial sounds of spinning blades, the cries for mercy followed by the thunderous, liquid crack, down that big pipe, into the green barrels, with the Monsanto logo, dripped down one side an elongated drop of pink paste ending in the letter E on the chemical label. FERTILIZER.”
**********
After finishing the transcription, my whole body began to want to flee, the walls of my house were tinged with a faint blue light as the cloudy dusk came through the window, the lights turned off by my abstraction at the computer gave way to the dark corridors that began to feel alien. As I gently closed the pc my ears began to ring as if under pressure, my breathing became more present and the vibration of my cell phone interrupted my trance.
A call from the office. It was to tell me that I had a vacation week pending, that by schedule, I had to take it starting today.
Sons of bitches, now they even choose your time off - I thought at first, but at the same time I found the voice on the phone very strange, and to tell the truth, the procedure itself.
The anger turned into confusion that only added to the paranoia. The sounds in the street began to seem erratic, a chaotic and strangely familiar feeling came over me. My senses seemed increasingly acute, and they screamed:
Go away.
I grabbed the old laptop, the flash drive and headed for the bus station. The short trip from my house seemed like a long journey. People on the street looked at me with strange faces, the cell phone kept ringing with unknown numbers on the screen and a strange idea began to formulate in my head that whispered “Them, Valeria is one of Them”.
Already on the platforms I rummaged through my backpack where I confirmed that I had the key to the family beach house in San Luis, 60 km to the east of Montevideo. I turned off my cell phone, got on a bus heading to another and much far away town called Treinta y Tres. Sat near the last seat and slipped my cell phone in my front pocket of the seat in front of me, got off and commented to the driver with a clueless face, “I got confused, I'm going to the coast”.
I almost jumped onto the steps of the correct bus to where I was heading, unable to avoid the gazes of the passengers questioning me for the last minute drop in. I sat in my numbered seat and defragmented in dissociation, trying to understand what I was doing, I was running away, but from what?
The images of the last transcriptions were engraved in my mind, the last paragraph was repeated over and over again making me shake my head from time to time trying to get them away from my thoughts. The road was dark and I lost track of time, the digital clock within sight of the passengers jingling since we left, reading 10:40.
“San Luis Station!” - I heard the guard's shout in low volume.
I staggered to my feet, hurried to get off and with the same impulse I entered the dirt roads.
I zig-zagged through the dark, cold and silent beach town. The moonless night and the smell of the sea calmed me.
When I turned the corner to the gabled beach house of my family, on the steps of the front door lit by a white light, was her. Sitting, waiting for me. I stopped dead in my tracks and a chilling vertigo ran down my torso to my throat. We looked at each other for a short two seconds, until she stopped and started walking in sliding steps towards me, smiling and playing with her hands, crossing and uncrossing her arms. The growing sound of the wind through the trees covered us.
“Darling, how are you? How nice is the summer house, I don't think we ever came here, did we? Is it the one your grandmother left you?”
I felt the adrenaline rushing through my bloodstream, how could such a familiar attitude from such a familiar person transmit such panic to me? I had to answer something.
“Yes, this is it. I came to clear my head for a while, they gave me a few days at work and I wanted to take advantage of it.” I tried to excuse myself with failed dissimulation, since I stuttered in the middle of the words.
“Yes, I know! We arranged it with them, so you can be more relaxed and as a gesture for taking care of the file. Ah! and another thing. I think someone stole your cell phone at the bus station.” She looked at me with a smart-ass smile.
“Anyway, don't worry, they already found it on a bus on the way to “Treinta y tres”. You can get it back later.”
At this point I opened my mouth to ask for explanations, but as terrified as I was I only mumbled a “thank you”.
All this dialogue let us half a body length away, Valeria looked at me now a little more serious and stood at my side. She took my arm petrified and I could feel how a strong smell of neutral soap invaded me, as if she had rubbed herself in it too much.
“Shall we go inside? it's getting cold,” She said, finishing the sentence with a sweet gesture of pleading.
“Emm, shure.” I said.
My trembling hands managed to hit the lock on the 3rd attempt, we entered, turned on the lights and from his backpack she took out a red wine. Our favorite.
“Bring me some glasses, Mauro”. - She said to me as she sat down on the armchair against the window overlooking the gentle hills outside.
She poured wine until he almost filled the ex-cottage cheese glass, looked at me and in a toast gesture said.
“To... Dr. B?”
I slid a little smile and raised my eyebrows. Then I took half a glass in one sip.
“Well!” - She exclaimed, leaning over and resting the glass on the coffee table, and continued.
"You must be very confused, I understand, I saw it many times, the mind trying to adapt to a new, unsuspected reality and in your case all at once. It is not easy. First, make sure that no one is going to hurt you or anyone you know, second, what you read in that file, as you may have noticed, is not intended for public knowledge. Also to tell you”. I couldn't take the stress anymore, I exploded.
“You're not Vale. Who are you?! You're almost identical, but....”
“Ah yes, that one it's a tricky one to explain. Let's try, let's see:
“I'm a version of Valeria that she accidentally gendered when entered the lab. In one of the incubation rooms she touched a scan button that photographs her mind for 48 hours. It contains a micro needle that took her blood and thus generated me.”
“The thing is that we were in a situation of self-destruction of the systems, and that part of the programming code of the protocol was also copied in Valeria's mind.”
“And Valeria? She 's... dead?”
“Well, yes and no. If she tried to leave the base she's probably dead. if she's still there, she's probably frozen to death or killed by the cleanup command, but basically, if I'm here, she's not anymore.”
the coldness with which she answered me made me lose the little calm I had, I got up from the armchair and started to back away with my hands on my head, I couldn't stop repeating,
“this can't be happening, this can't be happening”.
“Hey! Mauro, calm down, it's going to be alright. I'm Valeria too. In every way, I'm still your friend, I know who you are and everything we went through, really, it's me, and when I finish managing the leak, the code, it won't work anymore, it will be erased from my mind and I'll be me. So don't worry. You only have to give me the flash disc and this issue ends here. We go back to normal life and nobody will know about anything.
“I'm not going to pretend that my friend didn't die! Alone, fucking freezing to death, I'm not going to let you take her place, I'm not going to let you!” - She interrupted me.
“Mauro, listen to me” - She came closer to me and grabbed my hands, her big, lined eyes looking at me with sweetness, like so many times before.
“I AM Valeria, I have the same fingerprints, the same blood, the same DNA, the same memories, the same scars, absolutely everything. Are you going to tell my mother that I died? to my sister? Are you going to report me? Nobody is going to believe you at all. If anyone even wants to believe you, how would you prove it? I am an exact copy”. - she told me, smiling with real sweetness and empathy.
I could only cry, for my friend, for the helplessness of the conclusion that she was right. I collapsed on the couch, and watched as the hills swayed in the night.
“Let's have the last glass and I'm leaving.”- she said to me.
“After I give you this, and that part of you disappears, will you remember that you are not... really Valeria?
“No, there is already a simulation on pause about Valeria's last week, she won't remember anything about this situation when she wakes up, because the memory is simply overwritten.”
“So I'm going to be the only one to know about this?”
“Take it as a gift Mauro, a glimpse behind the veil. And if you keep it that way, everything will be fine” - The threatening tone was soft but evident.
“Okay, hand me your PC and the flash drive.”
I looked at her evaluating all possible actions and if this decision was the right one, she stretched out her hand and smiled sympathetically. I gave her the old computer and the black 16G flash drive with the file. She inserted it, typed mechanically fast until the screen went black.
“Perfect, That would be all - She took out the flash drive, threw it on the floor and stepped on it violently with the heel of her shoe, put on his backpack and headed for the door.
“Stop,” I said.
“The things that Dr. B wrote... about the underground…
“Yes, they are true, it was the only way to be self-sustainable and to be able to isolate the complex from the rest of the world. Even the most morally flexible scientists would question the work if they knew where the subjects ended up, and what we were doing with their bodies... Anyway, I'm going home, Lucia called me 5 times already. Talk to you tomorrow.
“Love you,.” - She smiled at me and closed the door behind her. I felt a car slowly drive away from the house.
From my pocket I took out the white flash drive and looked at it. Now I had a decision to make.

I would love to know your recommendations for clothing with UPF, favorite face or body sunscreens (especially not from the US), swimsuits, cooling products that can help with hot flashes or in general, deodorants, sun hats, bedroom fans, sheets, water bottles, bras or undies that wick moisture, etc.
​
Things you have had your eye on, or things you have used. Anything hot weather related. I am struggling with cancer's impact on my body and have found some solace in trying new shampoos, lip balms, and other fun little stuff, plus a lot of online window shopping while disassociating. Eek.
​
I will start...I came across this swimsuit company called Lime Ricki and I love their designs and prints and that it is all mix and match. I also love that they have tops have a lot of coverage, as I know I am not supposed to have that area exposed due to adiation. My current tops are almost all strapless so I won't be able to wear those for a while, if ever. They do have some mastectomy friendly swimsuits, and hopefully will start doing more. I am not affiliated with them in any way, but they are having a 40% off sale today if you use code FLOWERS4U. I ordered a bunch of things a couple of weeks ago to try on for size and I liked the feel of the fabric, but have not worn swimming so can't speak to durability.
​
--I know cancer has a huge financial impact, and I hope that I am not making anyone feel bad by this thread. This kind of thing helps me to dream about my future (that I currently very much struggle to visualize), but I understand that others may not feel the same. Also, I am one of you that has a hard time on Mother's Day, so this is a distraction for me. Anyway, much love to all of you!

Please sign the change dot org petition to repeal https://www.change.org/p/repeal-ab-413-twenty-foot-parking-loss-at-every-intersection
What is AB413: This is a California state assembly bill that "prohibits the stopping, standing, or parking of a vehicle within 20 feet of the vehicle approach side of any unmarked or marked crosswalk or 15 feet of any crosswalk where a curb extension is present". There is no requirement that this prohibited parking area be marked. Enforcement is due to begin in 2025 with warnings to be issued in 2024. The bill was authored by Assembly member Alex Lee, D-San Jose. There was no approval of this bill by the people of California.
What are the claimed benefits of this assembly bill: This bill is being monikered as a daylighting measure and is claimed that this measure will reduce pedestrian injuries from cars. However there are no substantive scientific studies to support this claim. Hoboken, New York is a small city of about 60,000 has been cited as proof of the power of daylighting however, far beyond the removal of parking, this city has made a herculean commitment to pedestrian safety with an extensive and extraordinary Police monitoring and enforcement actions and many street layout and design changes.
Why repeal AB413: Accident analysis data in San Francisco, the most densely populated City in all of California, shows that pedestrian accidents continue in areas of San Francisco where daylighting is already in place. The recent news shows a spate of out of control red light running, stop sign running, pavement driving and speeding drivers repeatedly crashing into pedestrians. What is needed is police enforcement and not loss of parking for the City. Prohibiting parking within 20 feet of any crosswalk is a complete overreaction and this law (AB-413) should be repealed as it removes thousands of crucially needed parking spots where there have been no incidents. This prohibition impacts not just residents themselves but businesses and services that rely on customers in Cities reeling from rampant crime and a major pandemic related downturn. In San Francisco this overreaction becomes clear if you look at the San Francisco governments own 2023 map of incidents where you can see the entire western swath of the City shows no incidents. Sure, prohibiting parking within 20 feet of crosswalks where it makes sense but not City wide. https://www.sfdph.org/dph/files/trafficsafety/Press_kit_project/contents/Ped_Injury_Fact_Sheet.pdf
How many spaces are lost? Let's take San Francisco as an example. An academic study from Marcel Maron shows San Francisco has 6,399 intersections using Satellite-imagery based analysis. Let's assume a very conservative single parking spot loss per 20' loss which is clearly an underestimate as there are very few cars that are twenty foot long. Now, with four approach sides lost per intersection, (considers both ordinary two way streets where one approach side is lost and one way streets where both sides of the approach are lost to parking), the loss in parking gives 25,596 spaces or ~10% of all street parking. Officials from the San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency anticipate a significantly lower loss of about 13,775 on-street parking spots, or ~5% of all street parking, will be affected by the law. Parking in San Francisco is generally agreed to be at capacity. The cost to rent a parking space will doubtless skyrocket given supply and demand. Here is the link to the study https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/23998083221081530
What are the hidden benefits of street parking? 1) A parked car acts as an energy absorber when hit by an out of control car. All modern cars are designed to protect the occupants with crush areas thus protecting pedestrians on the adjacent sidewalk. A parked car is an immobile thing set in park mode with parking brake set and blocked by the curb from entering the sidewalk. 2) Reduces the space available for drivers spinning donuts and thus endangering pedestrians

Hi, I'm thinking of a design to water change Betta jars easier in a farm setting. I'm thinking of a spring mechanism like a ball point pen, where you invert upside down a 1.5L mineral water bottle and have the mechanism in the bottle cap. So when you press the water bottle downwards it triggers the cap mechanism to click and the water and fish poop can flow away. Until desired water level is reached, you press the bottle down again and the spring lifts bottle and the mechanism snaps back into place, sealing the bottom.
What steps can I do to design and make it to real. Like autoCAD? I have no idea where to start, I'm not even sure this would work. Can I consult someone on this idea? I tried searching for bottle caps CAD and it's already difficult. How should I go about doing this.
I come from a bioengineering background degree.
The reason I think of this is because water change is a nightmare and farms usually only tops up water and the poop stays which is bad for fish. Trying to find a way to get that gunk out.
Thanks.
I'm from Singapore. ^{^}

SPOILERS FOR HADES 1 and 2 (In case the Title tag works only for Hades 2)
I remember seeing some youtube footage of Hades EA and it definitely seemed much less polished, but... I have to admit that I am disappointed that I got swept up in all the hype over an overhyped title.
My experience with Hades wasn't long, but I appreciated it enough to look forward to the sequel. It wasn't enough by itself to ever give me a reason to replay it, given that I haven't finished it and I usually do not return to games that I haven't finished, only to those that I have. But this sequel... kind of makes me question the merits of the original... or maybe give it another go, as perhaps, like with Everspace - the best parts can not be repeated.
You see, my gripes aren't with the technical side. Sure, there could be bugs or certain... situations that could use work. Like a certain boss ignoring Impervious... or a certain Warden that's designed to be static - to be misplaceable. And I definitely do not notice all the placeholder imagery and tooltips and whatnot. No issues there at all, no sarcasm.
No, my problem is with the pacing. Hades 1 was very straightforward. I didn't even think about playing it, it looked cringe, but my friend sort of was wondering how long would it take me to beat it. And I didn't disappoint. I made a number of "resource" runs and wrapped up the first completion in... 17 tries or so. Felt good, and was motivational to keep playing. Because there was plenty to learn before, and even more - after.
Now, I didn't stick around as long as my friend, trying to nolife a platinum. I didn't even get to the true ending. The game got predictably boring, especially when its RNG couldn't be controlled without mods, and when I manage - I manage. I do not leave things to chance, so restarting dozens of runs just to try a build didn't seem interesting after trying every aspect and more or less some Heat.
But, again, it was well-paced. It had concrete mechanics, you could almost always form synergies.
I don't feel the same with Hades 2. It just feels... overwhelmingly shallow. Not only the difficulty spike itself, which isn't enough to deter me, I welcome a challenge when it's reasonable. I didn't get Hades down on my first try. I think it was 2nd or third, with some consideration for its mechanics. But it wasn't an obstacle.
Before I go on, I'd like to mention Hecate and Scylla. Hecate I respect as a fight. Compared to Megaera - it feels much more... well, practiceable. In contrast, Megaera felt like the 2nd most difficult boss in Hades, because the amount of pressure you'd get RIGHT OFF THE BAT felt much more than even Extreme Measures 2nd\3rd bosses(I don't even remember their names).
Hecate, on the other hand, feels like a perfect tutorial\teacher battle. To the point of that No-Arcana challenge. Various types of mechanics, even that nifty trick with the frog that is the only way to bypass her sheep phase(and the amount of dialogue hints that the game gives, lol) - it just felt like a well-designed boss.
I can't say that Scylla is similarly well-balanced, the game starts to unravel there. But design-wise, with the song... I can't really blame it. It's all tongue-in-cheek, all the verbal clues from Odysseus and the rest, that you "shouldn't listed to distractive music". Good song, good idea. A tough battle that more or less goes like a EM Megaera. But still - so far... manageable.
That's really as far as my compliments can go. Cerberus reminded me of all the World of Warcraft jokes about PvE design hating melee. And, yes, I do believe that melee is dead in Hades 2, don't try to change my mind. But Cerberus itself wasn't too much of an obstacle. More like a lot of near-unavoidable damage that I don't even want to imagine in Extreme Measures. Because how more extreme can you get when your entire screen is a void zone?
But Chronos... well, to call it an EM Hades would be too much, obviously. But it's still something... off. I'll go into more detail, but in brief - it makes your journey irrelevant. Like you can more or less bludgeon through the previous rabble with almost any tier of shitty build. Almost. You can ignore Hexes(as you probably will), you can ignore mechanics. And still pull through. But Chronos is a wall that just makes every run unfinishable. Damage gating, oneshot mechanics, pixel-perfect dodging, breaking Impervious(and fourth wall) - it just makes it clear that it's either an extremely autistic challenge.... or requires a MUCH deeper grind. Hades wasn't like that. It was a good deal stronger than the third boss, it had two phases, but... it was very much manageable. And I know that Chronos is supposed to be THAT powerful lorewise and that the only reason why you are immune to his time prison is because plot. But I also know that THIS Chronos isn't, to quote the despicable japanese genre - "it's final form".
And that brings me to the grind. Which is an integral part of the pacing. I realized that Hades 2 is for fans who wanted more of Hades. I just didn't realize that I was supposed to want "that". The grind, even at this state, is... just overwhelming. Three reagents just to empower yourself, seeds\gardening, ore, fish, herbs, gifts, crafting reagents, boss reagents... I remember only Darkness from Hades. And maybe those Heat-exclusive boss drops. It was much simpler. With maybe a bit of gift-management(that I didn't take to the True Ending, because I got bored), but otherwise it was straightforward and obtainable. It made the attempts count.
Now, with Overworld runs that go for 5 minutes, with runs that require specific reagents - it feels like the first impression, that first push, the value of GETTING THERE - is gone. I can't start another save, I can't return to the game once it's released. All I know is that the objective was way, way, WAAAAY too overtuned and stuck behind ALL SORTS of unlockables. And that if\when I ever beat it or clear it... it wouldn't really matter. The game doesn't matter anymore. The story doesn't. It's all... grind. Just to get more text story, unlock some more power. Maybe get to try the boss to see its mechanics. And just keep at it. Was that really the core of Hades?
But that covered the "overwhelming" part. Now I'd like to get to the "shallow". Because all the new "Omega" nonsense that is basically "charge", all the new hexes.... they are shit. Let's be honest here. They introduce even more randomness and complexity into a game that's already stretched wide. I appreciate that Accessibility option of "autofire"(I don't remember if I played Hades 1 by spam clicking or not, but I can't imagine the alternative now), but I do not appreciate a Daedalus upgrade for one weapon that basically goes "Okay, now you can play as if you had Autofire enabled, but you can't charge, and you get nothing else for it".
I don't appreciate being not only locked by the seed of the runs, of an unchageable first boon, locked by a VERY deep and VERY costly reroll that is otherwise CRUCIAL for a Daedalus hammer. On top of... actually very wide-stretched boons that are somehow less in number than the original. How should I put.... it's possible to get to Chronos before even getting your LMB or RMB boons. It's CERTAINLY possible to get there without even getting your DASH BOON. Fans of Hades, remember Athena Dash? The king of Dashes? Well, shit, now the only Dash boon that I can somewhat recall is Aphrodite's! That kinda applies Weak or something. Instead - some of the Dash boons were reworked into SPRINT boons. Including the Athena Dash. Who the hell sprints... Is there a Sprint build now?
And that's on top of the CAST. Which is often a dealbreaker for many weapons. God help you if you want to run some melee build without self-locked cast.
What I'm trying to say is that the potential synergies are stretched so, so, SO wide across SO many effects that you can't really get them to work! There are so many things to modify with SO LITTLE WAYS to actually affect or change the RNG, because.... well, I don't know what the Grasp cap is, but I do not intend to farm it out. I had to use all of my ~20 Grasp just to get some basic combat aptitude, not leave ~10 out there for rerolls and and another 5 for BOON RARITY.
And then there are Hexes. I don't know. Hexes are shit. They don't work on bosses. And they aren't necessary outside of bosses, because, guess what - THEY HAVE A CAST TIME. That you can't spare! That you usually spend performing your rotation!
I can think of three hexes that have some utility. -That Dark Side(which Chronos damages through or that has some VERY weird and VERY unclear timings), which at least can give you some invulnerability for certain scenarios -The Healing Hex), which can give you 2 seconds of Impervious(when enabled) that could be useful for some bosses(Chronos P2, Eris purple shot etc), as well as damage bonus and just healing for when it matters -The Sky Strike Hex, or whatever costs 80 and makes you jump down for a 200 damage fart. The pre-cast of this Hex is atrocious, but if I understand it correctly - it does have a grace period\i-frame\invul window. Which, again, could be well-timed. Theoretically. Would be nice if one could stack it up, given that 80(potentially less with Path\boons) charge can be made back almost instantly, and you sure as hell don't want to use this thing on cooldown, it's terrible for rotation. But with 2-3 stacks it could be a nice save for bad situations. If it had an instant cast, not some stupid default hex 1 second cast.
The rest of the hexes are just.... idiotic. And serve no value. Especially where it matters. Like on Chronos. So if you didn't get one of these hexes, or if that Hex isn't good for your build - well, RIP. You ain't changing it. If you got it with No Moon or whatever it's called - also RIP. You won't even enable it. And if you got a hex as your RUN START boon... and a bad HEX at that... Well, that's the game's way of saying "F YOU, play another korean RNG game". Seriously, who the hell thought that putting HEX as your FIRST boon was a good idea? If there was ever something I'd be ready to grind for - it's DAEDALUS HAMMER being LOCKED as the SEEDLESS first boon. Because when you want to choose a weapon, or when Grave Thirst wants to choose it for you - at least you'd want to see WHAT CAN YOU DO WITH THAT WEAPON. Sooner than in Act 2, because that's quite a long way to Give Up.
So all that combined... has really ruined my first impression of this game. And I'm not sure if I'll be back(because what's the point?). Probably not before re-checking Hades 1 in its finished state to see if my memory is correct. But I wonder if Hades 1 had a similarly rough start. And if I dodged a bullet by trying it when it was ready, instead of when it was still cooking.

As per the title I am looking for a tint of 80-90% for the windscreen and likely 50 or so for the rest.
TLDR: the most recommended on Reddit are Apex / Xpel or Auto Millennium / Llumar however I have rejected both as neither carry those brands any more. Edit: I got the wrong Apex, my comments below refer to Apex Garage Services, not Apex Detail Studio, lesson to anyone who puts just Apex in Google Maps.
Previously I had 3M Crystalline 70 on windscreen and 40 on the back and sides, although that was several years ago I remember it was a bit too dark at night.
I recently bought a car and part of the deal was a 3M tint, I talked the dealer up to Crystalline 50 but he would not do the windscreen. When I took the car home at night the windows seemed at least as dark as I remember from inside but not as dark outside. There was no warranty card with the tint as I got before. The dealer has said he will speak to the tinter Monday to see if he can confirm what was fitted and get the warranty.
I tried Apex, Millennium and 3M for the windscreen, both Apex and 3M put the installed tint at 30-40, 3M thought it was not Crystalline. I am now thinking to remove part of the tint before the wing mirror to compare with a fresh piece to confirm. If not I will replace all so at least I can try and get the dealer to pay part as opposed to chasing him in 2 years if it goes purple or cracks. Edit: Apex (the real one) measured the tint and it appears to be Crystalline but with 15% VLT, This is likely good enough if the windscreen is clear.
Apex (Garage Services not Detail Studio) do not carry Xpel any more they do 3M, if I am going to do 3M I would prefer to do it in a mall near a cinema or restaurant. Although they said they can install any brand given the above I just want to go somewhere who only sell the brand I chose.
3M do not do any lighter than a 30 now.
Millenium do not do Llumar, they do Rhino however I cannot find a data sheet or any other info or reviews online.
Given the above I am looking to go to a good installer based on having the recommended tint as standard from 50 through 90 ideally they should have pieces of different darkness so I can see a piece stuck to my actual glass.
In order of preference I am looking for:-
1 Good heat rejection
2 Good visibility at night.
3 White car so black outside does look good (nowhere near as important as above).
Llumar do an Air 80 which is apparently the only one designed for a windscreen however all the big name products (including Air) are over a decade old, I am open to accept a more modern film from a smaller brand can be better.
Time is money so at this point having driven around Al Quoz all day I just want to go an get it done for whatever it costs. Ideally before I get fined for not sticking my Salik tag.
In the past I used Mr Cap for paint free dent repair PPF and ceramic, they were great at this however their tint is also not common online.
Thanks

A/N: Yeah, I locked tf in and revised my main work when I was posting those side stories. I went through every chapter with a fine-tooth comb and revised them to bring them up to current Cap standards. Maybe I'll do this again at some point, too.

“Holy shit! Kryll!” Those were Ivan Kaydanovsky’s first words as he stepped off his shuttle and onto the deck of the Republic’s Claw. An honor guard of two Republic marines flanked him, clad in polished black and carrying beautiful but deadly ceremonial rifles. On another shuttle, escorted by a black-clad RDF:Intelligence officer and a much larger honor guard, Kryll Naxol stood with the powerful bearing of a Republic Auxiliary.
“Ivan!” Kryll called back, committing a minor breach of protocol to rush out and greet his old friend. They wrapped in a bear hug, nearly crushing each other with their cybernetic strength before logic and neural inhibitors prevailed. “You were assigned to the Claw?”
“Probably old man Jedik trying to keep a watch on us,” Ivan chuckled. “But all’s well that ends well, right?”
Kryll blinked a bit and cocked his head before finally agreeing. “Suppose so. You’re with the standards, right?” The standard Auxiliaries. The ones without a Vanguard to guide their training. Many former apprentices had joined them over the course of the war. Some died with their masters instead.
“Yeah, yeah, the little babies sucking on bottles. That’s me,” smiled Ivan. “You’re motherfucking special forces. Give it a few years, you’ll be taking me as an apprentice.”
“Give it a few years, and the war will be won.” Kryll spoke with pride, and something between confidence and arrogance to back it up. “I… haven’t given too much thought as to what I’ll do after that.”
“See your people?” asked Ivan. “You have to have some.” Now that he thought about it, he didn’t know much of anything about Kryll’s past. He had never asked, and his friend had never told.
“You’re my people.” Kryll looked deep in thought for a moment. “Family, too, I suppose. Everyone else is dead.” Ivan suddenly felt very foolish. “Try not to die, too, okay?” Kryll made an attempt to cut the tension. “I kind of like you.” It had evidently failed.
Ivan remembered his old platoon on Atreides. Russian conscripts, hardly the cream of the crop, but sturdy and true fighters to the last. He missed them dearly, more than he would like to admit. He knew Kryll felt the same. “We’ll have to live for them, then. Keep their memory alive.”
“They lived as heroes,” Kryll replied. “Died like heroes, too. If we do have to go, I wouldn’t mind going out like them.” Ivan felt it was better not to go out at all.
“We had better pack it,” he said. “Don’t want to be late.” And, with that, he and Kryll had separated. Ivan wondered when they would see each other again.
The Auxiliaries Ivan was to meet stood in a large and gleaming cargo bay in clean and orderly ranks, like Ivan’s last platoon had done on Iera Prime. They were all dead now. He felt grimly thankful he had never gotten to know any of them. Then he wondered if Kryll had ever felt the same.
Forty men, Ivan counted. Or women, he added, as you could never really tell in combat armor. Forty Auxiliaries, standing at attention with automatics at port arms. Ivan realized that he was the forty-first. He had yet to don his armor, a suit which he assumed was custom-made for him. Even without the wings, Ierad physiology was alien enough for the Claw’s engineers to have to specialize a design. Ivan had learned as much when his martial arts instructors had to learn Muay Thai at the SpecOps academy.
A grim-faced officer directed him toward the armory. Two imposing marines flanked it, each standing at six feet tall and built like a gorilla in their powered combat suits. Ivan could have taken them apart like tin cans if he wished.
The door hissed open. Even on a Republic ship, all bright colors and sleek curves, there were some places where beauty was a foreign thing. This, a dull gray hallway with sixty berths for powered armor, was one of them. A requisitions officer stepped out of nowhere to challenge Ivan, surprising even his enhanced reflexes, and a brief exchange of words convinced him to show Ivan to his suit.
“Echelon-class standard-issue powered combat armor,” the officer explained, referring to the hulking black thing Ivan was to wear. “Modified for your… unique… physical characteristics. The wing weapons are absent, replaced with shoulder mounts for an arsenal of your choosing.” Ivan took all this in as he was told it. “Each forearm contains a mount for another weapon, usually an autocannon combined with a blade or cutting laser.”
Ivan had seen blades in use before. Horsemen, two of them, had boarded a battleship over the planet Segmentus. Why they hadn’t drawn guns, Ivan could not say, but he remembered vividly the ease with which they had cut down the ship’s marines.
“I’ll be using this?”
“You are Republic Auxiliary Ivan Kaydanovsky, identity number 87987, assigned to Standard Cohort Twelve, are you not?” Ivan nodded. “Then you will be using this.” The requisitions man jabbed a wing at the suit’s chest, where Ivan’s identity number was emblazoned in white Terran numerals.
Ivan stepped closer to the powered armor, admiring its massive bulk. No weapons were strapped to its arms, no artillery was stowed on its back, but this inert suit of armor seemed as formidable as a Greek god in front of lowly mortal Ivan. “You do know how to put it on, yes?” Ivan was really starting to dislike this requisitions officer.
He donned the suit and ran through his diagnostic checks. He had never used a powered suit of this caliber before, but it all came naturally to him. The implants were doing their work well.
After he had gotten the feel of things, some minutes later, Ivan Kaydanovsky took his first step in Auxiliary-grade powered armor. “It’s not unusual for operators of powered combat armor of this grade to experience a rush of euphoria, usually combined with a feeling of invincibility or limitless power,” droned the requisitions man. “Are you?”
Ivan knew all of that. Ivan had the specifics of this armor drilled into him so many times that he could have given that briefing from memory even without his computer augments. “Yes,” he said, taking a thunderous step forward and testing the suit’s systems with a few practiced movements. Then, he threw a lightning-fast blow that could have put a dent in the steel wall in front of him. He stepped back in shock. “I think I am.”
“Well, that’s natural.” The requisitions officer walked toward the door, beckoning Ivan with a wing to follow. “We should have someone here in a bit to remind you that you’re fallible.” Ivan needed no reminder. He had seen the casualty statistics. In a war like this, even gods were mortal.
The door hissed open. “Is that him?” Ivan looked to see a Republic colonel with striking blue plumage standing in the massive doorway.
“Auxiliary… Kaydanovsky, identity number 78987, come with me,” the officer commanded. There was no further communication.
A short ride in a transit pod later, Ivan followed the officer through a corridor and up to a door that was flanked by marines. That was hardly unusual, guarding doors was most of what marines did, but Ivan could not help but notice this door’s security was a bit overkill. The marines eyed him uneasily, and his armor reported that it was being scanned by a battery of concealed sensors. The door in front of him looked flimsy, coated in some alien wood and decorated with gold filigree, but his scanners detected six inches of blast proof metal behind it. “Admiral Jedik’s quarters,” Ivan guessed.
The marines looked among each other. “He’s cleared. Colonel, right this way.” The door slid open, triggered by an unseen operator. The colonel ushered Ivan in.
“Holy shit, Kryll!” That was the second, and not the last, time Ivan would say such a phrase. The Russian trooper spied his friend as he walked into a small but beautiful living room, surrounded by well-placed decorations and copies of artwork from across the galaxy. Most were from Earth, and there was even a Bible on some alien furniture near the door.
“Holy-” Kryll Naxol, clad in his own set of powered armor, shut his beak just before he uttered three alien syllables that would have been improper in the present company. There was, after all, a Republic fleet admiral standing by the hologram projector. “I apologize for my friend’s vulgarity, sir.”
“Apology accepted.” Yegel Jedik, the father of the microchip that now clung tightly to Kryll’s prefrontal cortex, snapped to attention and saluted Ivan. He saluted back. “Colonel Talta, you’re dismissed. Report to the fleet bridge and continue your work on the battle plan.” Jedik was dressed for a formal occasion, a rarity in the Republic fleet, and he was holding a glass of alcohol in his left claw. That was not a rarity.
The colonel, whose name tag Ivan had never actually bothered to read, saluted and left. “Sir, if I may,” said Ivan, “Why am I here?”
“You do remember, of course, that your friend owes his position to the computer chip my surgeons installed in his brain?” Jedik asked. Ivan nodded, a gesture which the admiral had learned by now. “Good. I must confess, I’ve not been entirely truthful with you.”
“With all due respect, sir, I suspected as much,” said Ivan. “I saw your spies when I was training.”
“And you?” Jedik turned to Kryll.
“I don’t think the microchip operates the way you explained it to me. A randomized tactical generator wouldn’t have had the effect it did.”
“I’m not going to discuss military secrets with you,” Jedik snapped, ending that line of discussion. “That is need-to-know only, and neither of you need to know it. Now, listen well.” They were listening. “You, Lieutenant Naxol, are an experiment. A test subject, functionally identical to every other soldier who agreed to have that microchip installed except for one factor; you are an Auxiliary. There is one other in the galaxy like you, lieutenant, and you both are assigned to the same unit.” He pointed a wing at Ivan. “You are their control group. The three of you will be fighting together, under my personal supervision, and your performance will be instrumental in demonstrating the effectiveness of this microchip technology. Are we clear?”
They were test subjects. Guinea pigs on the front lines of a war. Ivan really hoped that Admiral Jedik knew what he was doing.
“Sir, yes, sir!” Kryll and Ivan barked in unison, responding reflexively to their superior’s request. “Perfectly clear, sir!” After that, they were dismissed. They passed ranks of armored marines, who stood like suits of armor in some ancient castle, and thought of their new task.
“Kryll,” Ivan said, to break the silence. “Things make sense, now. The spies, the gold cadre, most of it. The one thing I don’t get is why a Vanguard chose you if Jedik had already laid a claim.”
“He probably didn’t,” Kryll figured. “Or Jedik was late to claim my services. Hell, this microchip is a wonder. I could never think of things like this before.” He paused, thinking of things like this. “Do you think Jedik even knows what it does?”
“Shit, I fucking hope so!” Ivan laughed. “It’d be real shitty if you started seeing the shadow people halfway through a firefight!” Then he had to think, too. “I’d wager he has some idea, but he can’t know everything. No need for an experimental unit if he did,” he explained.
“Agreed. He probably has thousands of units like ours. Tens of thousands of test subjects.”
“It’s kind of fucked, doing that to people,” said Ivan. “I mean, he doesn’t even know what the chips really do, and he’s testing them on intelligent beings.” Kryll didn’t feel the same way. “Why not use it on mice, or monkeys, or those six-legged things that can solve a Rubik’s cube?” ‘Those six-legged things’ referred to a species of mammal on Iera Prime whose average specimen was about as intelligent as an eight-year-old child. Most of them could not solve Rubik’s cubes.
“The Alliance killed two hundred billion people,” Kryll countered. “No provocation, no prior aggression on our end, just senseless murder. If putting computers in my head helps them finally get what’s coming to them, then hook me the fuck up.” There was a harsh finality to his words that ended all discussion on that matter. Ivan did not want to press him any further.
“Who’s the third Auxiliary?” Ivan changed the subject.
“How would I know? I got told the same thing you did.”
“Yeah, I figure that’s fair.” Ivan shrugged. “We should meet him soon enough.”
They did meet him soon enough. Both of them had made their own mental preconceptions of what their new teammate would be, and both of their preconceptions were totally dashed when they finally saw it. Not he, or she, but it. It sat on a huge crate in the cargo bay they had been assembled to, covered from head to toe in a thick brown exoskeleton and holding a massive assault weapon in two of its six limbs. Two others were obviously for movement, being furthest from its ant-like head and shaped much like animal legs on Earth, and the two middle ones were clearly manipulators. They were shorter and scrawnier, but still formidably strong as appendages went. They grasped the assault rifle, the same model of weapon Ivan had seen in the armored gauntlets of Republic marines just minutes prior.
The top two appendages, positioned similarly to Ivan’s arms, were neither for grasping nor moving. They were bruisers, thick as tree trunks and covered at the ends with sharp spikes of strong chitin. They could hold something, with three digits on each limb, but any fine motor tasks were impossible.
The insect was totally naked, not even wearing armor, but no reproductive or even waste-disposal organs were visible. Ivan, being a devout Christian, was thankful for that.
It stood up as it saw him, rising to the height of fully eight feet tall and making Ivan recall all the times he had crushed insects underfoot when he was younger. The burly Russian was clad in full powered armor, seven feet tall and one thousand pounds heavy, and this monster still made him feel small. Any previous thoughts of invincibility in his armor were quickly dispelled.
“Soldier caste,” said Kryll. “It’s a Krulvuk, born and bred for war.”
“I’ve heard of them,” Ivan breathed. “Good Christ, you look different in person.”
“Why?” asked the Krulvuk. “Holographic distortion?”
“No, no, it’s just an expression,” Ivan sighed. “Never mind.”
“My apologies,” the insect chittered. “I am unfamiliar with expressions.” It crouched lower a little, bringing Ivan’s helmeted head level with its own. Two bulbous eyes, like those of a Terran housefly, stared at his metal visage. A pair of massive mandibles clicked absentmindedly. “Command castes are meant for such a purpose. I am a soldier caste.”
Ivan recalled seeing a command caste on a news broadcast, defending her actions from a crowd of incensed reporters. She, or at least the broadcast said it was a she, was the magistrate of a Krulvuk colony on the outskirts of Regime space. When a famine struck, she ordered the killing of twenty thousand of the lower castes to conserve food for the rest of the colony.
Ivan did not like the Krulvuk command caste.
“Tell me more about them,” he said, gauging whether this soldier’s feelings aligned with his own. “How do they treat you?”
“The command caste are thinkers, scholars, leaders. They are exceedingly rare. Soldiers and workers serve them.” Then it paused, mandibles clicking and claws fidgeting. “My command caste sold me to Admiral Jedik for sixty thousand units. He had no need for me.”
There was no emotion whatsoever in that insect’s modulated voice. No hint of sorrow at its betrayal or sale, like a slave on old Earth. “Like a slave?” Ivan gasped. “You’re a slave?”
“It’s a hive insect,” Kryll explained to him, not to defend the insect but to explain its alien nature. “Hardwired to serve its colony, without any regard for its own life or safety. It would kill itself if it meant the colony stayed alive.”
Ivan looked at the insect. “Would you?”
“Without question.”
“Why?” he gasped. “What the fuck do you owe them?”
“It is my biological imperative to obey and serve,” chittered the insect, “No matter the cost.” Its mandibles clicked once, a gesture that Ivan’s suit translated into realization. “Oh, my apologies. I am Vigel, formerly known as Sekvit 1,829.” The 1,829th Krulvuk to hatch from one of Sekvit’s eggs. The command caste were the only ones who could lay them. “I was named by Admiral Jedik, who I am now legally and ethically required to serve.”
“You earned a name,” Kryll congratulated Vigel. “Good job, big man.”
“Thank you,” Vigel chittered. “Low castes are genderless, for your information, but I feel no offense at the mishap. I have been informed that my species can be found quite unnerving, and I truly appreciate your support.”
Ivan certainly found its species unnerving. They were alien, truly alien, and in a very bad way. There was a reason the Alliance had taken pains to exterminate them over the course of their invasion. Regardless of how he thought of the Krulvuks, Ivan was still glad they had failed.
“Well, uh, you seem agreeable enough,” he ventured. “It’s just the command caste that I mind. The way they run things doesn’t sit right with me.” Krulvuks were a cold and utilitarian species, having earned many enemies before they stood against the hated Alliance. Before the war, the threat of a Krell Imperial or international police action kept their species in line with Coalition morality. Now, with their army sorely needed to defend frontline worlds, there were no such restrictions. The Galactic Coalition could not afford a conflict at home.
Their lower castes were instinctively conditioned to obey and defend the command caste to the death, and the latter treated their servants almost universally like expendable machines. To them, lives were a resource like any other. Soldier caste, worker caste, even fellow command castes had a value, and they all could be left to die unflinchingly if another resource was deemed more precious.
Vigel did not mind this way of life. Most others did. The Krulvuk Regime had a very short list of allies.
“Why?” asked the massive insect. “They are logical. Efficient. Calculating. Are these not admirable traits in a leader?”
“A leader should have compassion,” Kryll countered. “They should care for their people, not just see them as tools.” Vigel understood this concept, even if it did not grasp the sentiment of it. Admiral Jedik had explained it to him.
“Like the admiral,” it clicked understandingly. “Compassion is unnecessary,” it countered. “Logic dictates that, when the colony prospers, the command caste will also prosper. Thus, logically, the command caste has an incentive to make their colony prosper. No compassion is involved in that.”
No compassion was involved on Tlelaxis III, either, when a battalion of Regime troops gunned down an entire worker caste habitation sector to cull the spread of a lethal epidemic. Ivan was really growing to dislike Vigel. Kryll had already drawn that conclusion, though he was better at hiding it. “And what if I’m wounded on the battlefield, and logic dictates you leave me to die?” snapped Ivan.
“Ivan,” Kryll warned. “Let’s try to be cooperative here.”
“His concern is valid,” Vigel countered. “I assure you, I will always act in the best interests of the Republic. I would never abandon my unit unless the situation demanded it.” Ivan felt that was a fair answer, all things considered. He knew he’d shed few tears over leaving Vigel on the front. “Still,” warned the insect, “I may not refuse an order that is given to me. I am compelled to obey.”
“Any order?” asked Ivan, concern mixed with contempt in his voice. “Tell me honestly, are you a machine? Or are you a man?”
“I am neither,” said Vigel. “I am simply a killer. Born and bred.” A butcher was closer to Ivan’s description of it. “That is why I am here.”
“Damn straight!” Ivan exclaimed. “You’re a soulless, emotionless, murder machine, just like the rest of your shitty race.”
“Ivan!” snapped Kryll. “As your superior officer, I command you to be silent!” Ivan stepped back sheepishly. “You will not insult your fellow soldiers again.”
“I am not insulted,” Vigel defended him. “I find his assessment to be somewhat accurate, if in a demeaning way.”
“Which means you should be insulted,” Ivan snapped, jabbing a finger at Vigel. Kryll glared at him through his helmet. “Any normal person would.”
“Sergeant Kaydanovsky, do I need to tie your mouth shut with rope?” Ivan grew silent. After all he’d been through alongside Kryll, he had almost forgotten the bird was still his superior officer. “You will refrain from speaking in that manner about anyone in this unit, or I will have you running sixties until your legs collapse,” Kryll snapped. He could be quite intimidating if the situation called for it. “Am I clear?”
“Yes, sir,” Ivan growled, snapping to attention and saluting. “Perfectly clear, sir.”
“Good. Now, you’re dismissed.” Ivan turned and stalked out of the room. Kryll considered following him, thinking more as his friend than his commanding officer, but there was little he could do. Kryll Naxol could field-strip an automatic rifle in ten seconds flat, he could make an improvised explosive out of engine coolant and empty canteens, but he was far out of his element here.
Ivan walked out of the cargo bay in a fury, disgusted at the callousness with which Vigel treated life and the readiness with which he defended his despotic command caste. Kryll knew he was right, he felt the same way himself, but he was hopeless at convincing Ivan to hold his tongue around Vigel. Unity was what won wars, and Kryll's unit was disunified. If Ivan refused to fight alongside Vigel, or he did not place his trust in it, the unit would be destroyed. People would die.
The fleet would be at Neldia within a day. He and his men would be fighting on the ground, behind enemy lines and with only each other to rely on, within three. And, like it or not, the bond between them was fast unraveling.
Kryll knew he had to act fast, but he didn’t know what to do. The doctrine that had held true all his life had just failed right in front of him and, unless he was able to make Ivan fight down his feelings, the entire unit would be in danger.
Kryll Naxol did not know how to succeed, but he very much knew he was failing. Part of him believed he already did.

A few minutes after I step out of the office and into the streets of the city I live in I find myself walking past various people on a busy street. I am a decent distance away from the office and I have the ability to truly appreciate the assorted abilities I purchased.
My enhanced senses, which with every passing second grow incrementally stronger, allow me to fully soak in how powerfully alive a city is. I can hear the sounds of everything from insects hiding away in small crevices and cracks where they hope to be undisturbed by humans, to the whispered conversations people not far from me are having as they walk ahead of or behind me. I can see the seams of clothes worn by people around me even from a distance, including seeing them in their full, true breadth of color, colors beyond what I can name and identify.
I can feel the changes in the location of nearby air caused by people moving around me. If I shut my eyes I could effortlessly navigate this place, as busy as it is without sight. And the smells... Well, the smells are a lot less pleasant than everything else, but my sensitivity to them is still something that astounds me. The active simulation of my senses serves as training, and this makes even the act of walking around serve as something that will slowly morph and change me for the better.
I allow myself to wander, gaining valuable experience all the while, as I turn inward and glance at my class menu. My class menu right now only has three options for me to choose from and they are pretty basic: mage, rogue, and fighter.
Mage is the default magic class, and the first "Class ability", one of the main draws of the "Class" mechanic in the first place; abilities that every class offers those who invest in them, with new options becoming available whenever you level up, it offers me is a simple and minor boost to my ability to regenerate magical energy. Rogue is the default subtlety class and it has not been selected so I can't yet determine what basic "Class ability" it offers me at first level. With a simple burst of focus and intent I switch my active class to rogue, after dealing with "Tutorial Sprite", and I feel myself gain a very minor boost to my ability to be unnoticed so long as I am standing still and an increase to the effectiveness of subtle actions I take, like trying to pickpocket somebody.
I repeat this again to make my class "Fighter" and I am surprised to see a text box appear that asks me to pick a "Fighting Style". I get the chance to pick a single buff out of several, all of which relate to fighting in various ways. I ultimately pick a buff that strengthens my unarmed strikes, since barring something truly horrible I'll always have my hands ready to go in a battle.
I switch my active class back to that of a mage, after dealing with "Tutorial Sprite" once more. As I continue to explore the city I mentally muse about the sorts of actions it'll take for me to actually other classes. I saw a few examples in the description of the actual perk description back when I was selecting it, so I know that if I behave as something that is usually enough for me to gain it as a class, but that raises some interesting questions in the context of classes like "Ranger", "Monk", "Paladin" and other fantasy RPG classes. Perhaps I can't unlock them in this jump? That'd be a bit boring, honestly, but it'd at least give me something to look forward to, I guess.
I quickly reach into my inventory and pull out my phone, though the gestures I do to mask this are to reach into my pocket and "withdraw" it from there. I effortlessly and deftly navigate the thing as I begin to venture a touch farther from my home than I'd like. I'm about to turn around when I spot a decently large gym in the distance. This makes me smile, and I use my phone to check out how much money I have in my bank account.
I have a few hundred dollars to my name and nothing else of value. Funnily enough prior to my time in this jump having just a few hundred dollars would worry me a bit but I actually just smile at the sight of the funds I currently have. This is for two reasons: it's more than I had back on my homeworld, but also it's more than enough since I'm staying in an apartment where the first month of rent has already been paid and I don't need to eat or drink. I elect to head to the gym and to see if I can gain a class or two tonight. As I walk I install several social media apps on my phone and set up accounts for the sake of making it easier for me to establish a social media presence later. I still need to do stuff like take pictures though...
In minutes I am in the gym's store and I feel the eyes of several people on me. At this point I've already done the minor stuff like signing up for the gym and paying registration, which I did by interacting with a beefy-looking gym employee who was happy to get my personal details. I am studying the available outfits, looking for the ones that will draw the most attention.
I'm hot now, why not flaunt it? My charisma is one of my most handy stats, and I can train it as easily as I can train my other stuff, so I should. In future jumps being able to attract followers could be life-saving, and in this jump being able to attract new friends will make the days pass by quicker. I grab a few different combinations of clothes, a towel, and a water bottle, as well as a duffel bag. The pants and shirts I pick are clothes that will emphasize my lean build, as I don't have anything like a bruiser or berserker's body type but the wry, lean build of someone who focuses on skill more than raw power. The size of the clothes actually doesn't matter, thanks to a trait from "Inventory" which will automatically resize things I equip, like clothes, to fit me when I store them away.
I take the stuff I've decided to purchase to a cashier and she rings me up while studying me. She is a cute looking but young, late teens young, blonde girl who skillfully takes my goods and scans them.
"So are you new in town?" She asks. "I've never seen you before and most of the people who bother shopping here are regulars." She adds. I laugh lightly and nod at her.
"Yep! I work over in downtown and I decided to check out the rest of the city. I was looking for a gym and saw this one so I figured I'd become a member. This is the closest gym to my work." I remark, probably inaccurately. She nods as she hears me talk. Her name is Jasmine according to the name tag on her uniform. She and I exchange more small talk before she tells me how much I owe her. The amount is almost one hundred dollars which is a bit less pleasant than I'd hoped, but not such a bad price it dissuades me from buying the stuff. She takes my card, does the stuff to get it to pay off what I owe her, and gives it back to me with a receipt. I thank her for her time, tell her I'll see her around and make my way to the gym's locker room while I put my stuff into my new bag.
The place is tight and I can smell the scent of sweat, dirt, and other unpleasant stuff. It's not fun, but a part of my perk that improves my senses is that unpleasant sensations do not have the same delibating effects on me that they would on others. This allows me to tolerate it even as I study my surroundings and look for security cameras. I manage to spot a few so I make my way to the men's bathroom which is connected to the locker room, check for cameras and this time I find none. I reach into the duffel bag I have purchased for myself and I grab the clothes I placed in them, immediately click the resulting notification away, stuff them in my inventory, and then touch my own clothes and store them away in my inventory.
I immediately equip my new outfit, a pair of red pants and a tight blue shirt. I don't bother admiring myself but I do take a quick picture so I have something for social media to hint at my newfound nature as a gym rat. This gives me a "Photography" skill, which I fully plan to take advantage of over the course of this jump. I walk over to the locker room and pretend to store my duffel bag in a locker I was given as part of my package for being a member of the gym. Once my duffel bag is safely in my inventory I shut the locker door and head out to the main floor of the gym, exiting the locker room out a different way than the way I came in.
I step into a large area filled with a multitude of machines for cardio workers, many of which are occupied by various people. Professional trainers stand next to some of the people working out and encourage them while cautiously watching to make sure they don't hurt themselves. Next to some of the areas where people are working out are glass walls showing various studios for classes like Zumba and other sorts of dance-heavy methods of getting workouts. I study the sheets on the glass walls of those rooms, looking to see if any classes are happening soon. I grin when I see a Zumba class that is less than five minutes from starting, in a room where a handsome and fit Latin man is idly stretching. He is being watched by several women, some of whom look at him unwholesomely. I walk over to the place where the participants in the Zumba class are gathering or stretching, uploading the picture I took to different sites and apps at the same time, while I enter the studio, grinning almost uncontrollably as I appreciate the wisdom of choosing The Devil's Own Luck as one of my perks.
______________________________________________________________________________________ Juan is the first of the room's inhabitants to notice the newcomer. The figure steps into the room and immediately begins to approach the instructor, a large grin on his face as he walks over to the middle of the class.
The striking figure has an air that is passively attention-getting and as Juan studies him the man turns his light eyes on the Zumba instructor. The two figures appraise each other as Lucas approaches the instructor and asks him if this is the classroom for Zumba. Juan grins at him and tells him to go ahead and pick a spot in the room. Lucas thanks him and picks a spot close to the glass wall of the room so that way the eyes that got glued to him when he walked through the large gymnasium can continue to appreciate him.
Lucas has movie-star looks but they are wholesome movie-star looks. He looks like the sort of figure that a big studio would hire to star in rom-coms, rather than a sort of strikingly sexy figure who might appear in modeling campaigns or as the star of action movies. His looks aren't designed to attract anyone seeking a specific type of attractive person, aside from maybe a wholesome boy next door type allowed to age and mature a touch. This gives him a generalized level of attractiveness that many, regardless of their gender, sex, or sexuality, would be able to admire, and that several people in the gym are currently admiring.
Juan is not surprised when a few more people enter the studio last minute. The instructor wonders whether Lucas will be a net negative or a net positive for him in the weeks to come if he becomes a regular at the gym and in the class...
"Bienvenidos mi gente!" The instructor shouts as the six-thirty class begins. Multiple people, including Lucas, return the greeting, with Lucas surprising multiple people by returning it in accent-neutral Spanish. Juan gives his pre-class spiel, all about working out at a pace the individual exerciser is comfortable with and about the importance of staying hydrated, and the class, for the most part, listens attentively. Juan then presses a button on a small remote control in his palm which turns on the music.
"Alright class, let's start off nice and slow with some stretches." The instructor says, his voice naturally carrying across the room. He guides the class in a series of simple, light stretches to an instrumental song that combines elements of hip-hop and some other genres. Lucas is able to keep up with this hilariously easily, and the man smiles all the while. There is a look on his face of serene and calm joy, one which he keeps up as the music shifts and Juan begins to guide the class in a simple dance. Lucas keeps up and even feels his mind adjusting to the music and to his instructor's rhythmic moves, emulating the same grace and dexterity as the instructor thanks to a number of perks mixing together and allowing him to move with quite literally supernatural ease.
As the music plays Lucas gains a new skill, "Dancing", and as he trains and hones this skill he is powerfully aware of the impact of several perks that work in conjunction. "Super Sensory", "The Devil's Own Luck", "Well Of Wisdom", and "Beautiful Mind" work with "Jack Of All Trades", "Experience Booster" "Master of All" and "Skills" to hone Lucas's instincts and ability to predict what Juan will do next. He matches the instructor move for move even halfway through the song, and when the song comes to an end the instructor is smiling at the young dancer. In Lucas's mind time freezes when he gets a notification alerting him that he's earned a new class: "Dancer". Internally the young jumper cheers in excitement as he clicks off the notification and makes the class his "active" class, which grants him a bonus to his agility.
The music seamlessly transitions into the next song, and Lucas watches the instructor while gracefully freestyling a series of idle, low-energy moves that still make him look good. Juan watches the man and gets the sense that Lucas is a veteran dancer, which is closer to the truth than most people would suspect when glancing at Lucas either pre-chain or now if he wasn't moving. When Juan begins to dance Lucas immediately replicates him, and the for the next hour the two dance. There are other dancers in the room, some of them are actually quite good, but none of them can match Lucas or Juan.
The two dancers are on another level, and Lucas's mind is hungry to absorb as much as he can, to learn as much as he is able about his own body and what sort of physical limits exist, right now, for the newly liberated performer. Lucas delights in having a body that can move the way he wants it to, and he gains enough experience to level up, time itself freezing for a brief moment about three-quarters of the way through the class. Lucas internally grins with delight when he gets to pick a new class ability.
The way this process works visually is that as time freezes three text boxes appear in front of the dancer. Each one denotes a new ability or buff that the figure could earn. In this case each of the options is a fully new skill or ability rather than a simple buff.
One ensures that once per day a dance can be performed that will be rewarded in some way, with the reward depending on the quality of the dancing and the means of the audience. Another option is an ability to incorporate dancing into one's strikes which makes them harder to predict or block akin to Capoeira, and the last one is a strange ability that allows Lucas to infuse his performance skill with his charisma, which will massively increase how good a dancer the athletic office worker could be. Each of these skills is radically different and Lucas allows time to be frozen while he makes his decision.
Lucas could take advantage of this early moment to gain a new way to interact with his environment, he could get a nice boost to his ability to defend himself, or he could lean into his build... He ultimately opts to give himself a bit of a secret tool in combat, deciding to invest in his long term security, rather than doubling down on what he knows he can do well. Time resumes and he continues dancing.
For several minutes after the class comes to an end he is badgered by people who saw him dancing. He politely answers questions, exchanges names and contact information, and he even gets formally introduced to Juan Romero, the class's instructor. The two have a short, somewhat awkward conversation, wherein Lucas senses Juan's interest in him but also the fact that the figure doesn't love being upstaged in his own class. Lucas doesn't blame him for having come to that conclusion since Lucas was undeniably the better dancer. It's not Juan's fault that "Jack of All Trades" gives Lucas the knowledge and base skills of an average Zumba instructor, and then Lucas's other perks push him past that. Still, Lucas remains polite and thanks the instructor for a good lesson before he decides he's had enough exercise for the night.
In minutes Lucas, still wearing his somewhat skimpy outfit, is out of the gym and slowly making his way back home. The apartment is over an hour away walking at a brisk pace, but Lucas is happy to walk, since that's a thing he can do now. The fit gamer walks through the now artificially illuminated streets of the city armed with his handy mini-map. The figure diligently studies the map as he cautiously, patiently explores his new home, noting the occasional appearance of icons of different colors which is a signifier that they have different relationships to him than either being his friend, or neutral towards him. During this time the man familiarizes himself with this world's social media scene, and he is happy to note the immediate popularity he has garnered thanks to his first post being a thirst trap.
"If 'catfishes' exist in this world so many people are gonna try and use pictures of me..." The man mutters at one point, all while navigating the roads of the city like he was born here.
The next few minutes pass by in a blur, with the figure only stopping for a beat to pick up some groceries. Once he gets enough ingredients for a few simple meals so he can see if he can earn a skill, if not a class, he returns to the streets of the city. A scant few minutes later he deposits the items he purchased into his inventory and finishes walking to the rundown apartment building where his new home is located.
_______________________________________________________________________________________ I step into my apartment after walking up a small flight of stairs and curiously study the cramped, only somewhat livable space. It's a studio apartment outfitted with a very small handful of furniture pieces, namely a bed, a small chair, and a tiny table that is covered in different outfits, my outfits. It has a kitchen, which is thankfully fully outfitted with older looking but hopefully functional pieces of kitchen equipment, which I plan to cook in new utensils that I purchased earlier tonight. I close the door behind me and opt to make sure I fully understand my living situation by walking over to the one door in the apartment that doesn't just lead back outside, and I open it only to see a dirty, unpleasant looking bathroom.
"Well I'm getting what I paid for..." I complain as I realize that if I ever want company over, of any sort, I'll need to clean this place up. I close the door to the bathroom and opt to take stock of my situation.
On the bright side: I have an apartment all to myself and that's always nice. On the not-so-bright-side my apartment is a rundown mess and actually cleaning it won't be fun, plus for any of my furniture to not be generic as hell I will need to invest some of my hard earned money into this place, and right now I'm hardly wealthy. But if I look back on the bright side again... it seems that all sorts of activities earn me skills and classes, so there's probably opportunity to be had here.
I decide to tackle things one at a time, so I go to the kitchen and methodically check the kitchen equipment my landlord provided me with. I also use my cellphone connect to the place's wifi, and plug my phone in so the thing can get some charge. I carefully fiddle with each of the devices in my kitchen, eventually determining that they each work which is truly fantastic news. I cheer when this happens, and I dump out the ingredients I purchased so I can begin to cook a simple meal.
As I cook I turn my phone onto this world's version of YouTube, which is something that has a thematically similar name: OurChannel. I explore the app with one hand while I use my other to prepare the ingredients I selected which consist of some healthy greens and a nice broth so I can make a nutritious soup. I wasn't the healthiest eater in my past life, and I don't need to eat, but I want to gain as many skills as I can which means being much bolder in this life than I was before I became a jumper.
I explore the app on my phone until I find a playlist which promises to allow me to listen to today's hits. I tap it and the music begins to play as I continue to prepare what should be an easy to make dinner. At some point I lose track of time and begin to improvisedly sing along to a song I don't know before I place the ingredients in my meal into the pot, which now sits on top of the stove and is filled with boiling water. As I do this time freezes right when the song I was singing comes to an end. I click through the drawback that was just invoked and see that I have received two skills: singing and cooking. I'm disappointed but not surprised to see that I have not yet gotten any new classes, but singing is a fun skill for me to have unlocked so I'll take it.
"Singing could be a lot of fun..." I remark as my cellphone's app begins to play the next song on the playlist. If I level up my singing I could easily use that in a lot of ways, especially in future jumps.
The next few minutes pass by quite speedily thanks to the music I'm listening to. In less than fifteen minutes I am tasting my simple creation and I am pleasantly surprised to find that I quite like the taste! My enhanced senses allow me to appreciate the flavor of the healthy foods, and I can take pride in the fact that I have made the food myself. Plus this skill, if properly cultivated, can open a lot of doors for me in the future. I drink only half of my soup, as a part of me wonders if the fact that what caused me to become a dancer earlier was the fact that I was in front of other people. If so if I give food I made by hand to someone else that should be enough to allow me to become a chef! I store the soup, while it's still fresh, in my inventory. Hopefully tomorrow I'll be able to give someone lunch.
When I'm doing making food what I do next is simple. I sit on my kitchen countertop and I proceed to browse the web. I don't do this trolling for any site to read or use, but for one specific thing: I surf the net looking for places where I can find books to read. My easiest skill to farm and hone is my reading skill, and thanks to Master of All I can grind the skill while also grinding everything else. I eventually find a website that allows visitors to read great American classics, which marks the first time I've heard or seen the word "American" in this world. I begin to explore the site, and I spend the next few hours happily reading classical literature and honing all of my skills and perks all the while.
A small part of me wonders if I've made the right choice, but I quickly silence that internal voice. Being here in this room is making me feel things, things that won't help me over the long run, as my presence here means that what I've done is real. The fact that I don't wake up in my tiny apartment back on my native Earth means that my decision nearly a day ago has weight and consequences, which is still a bit hard to believe given that I now have gamer-style abilities and traits but my disbelief doesn't cause me to suddenly shoot up in my bed back on my native Earth. Even when I heard a small voice in the back of my mind wonder if I'm actually here I don't suddenly awaken or get a strange foreboding feeling in the pit of my stomach. I'm still here, still honoring the agreement I made with my boss earlier today. As fantastical as some of this feels, I know that I'm actually here, actually in possession of a super body, and that there is still much work for me to do if I want to grow.
When I finally stop this to get ready for work enough time has passed that I've gained several levels in many of my skills, with cooking and singing having both leveled up. I walk over to the table where my clothes are laying on top of each other and I pick out a new outfit. Once I select it I equip it and slip out of my apartment so that I can begin my walk to my new place of employment for my second day, which should be my first real day of work. As I make my way towards the office I can't help but smile. There's an almost childish quality to my excitement as I move closer and closer to a place I know I'll probably loathe by the time I leave this world. I eventually spot the outside of the office building I work in, and relax as the nasty reality of the boring job I have and will be doing diligently for the next decade washes over me. Still, a decade and then retirement, complete with free money for as long as I want is a pretty sweet deal, one I'd be a fool to pass up. And as I reach the front door leading into and out of the office, I smile cleverly and remind myself that for all of my flaws I am not a fool.
