As a member of a collective devoted to retrofuturism, I don’t agree with seeing it as the ghost of an unfulfilled utopia.

“ almost everything that looks even slightly vampiric probably had someone doing that voice at one point. i’m glad he changed his mind about it, though—-your voice, ” she remarked, smiling, tilting the filled cup to him, 

“ is a lot better. ”
