Picnic baskets and blankets soaked in the sun of days that told us they'd never end.

Our love is like holding hands. Sometimes you must let go. I still want to walk the streets swinging arms.

If the bird felt envy she'd be jealous of the wings of my soul.

If you hesitate to heed my warning and accept my help, it’ll already be too late and your people will spend the next hundred years hiding like cockroaches among the rubble.

-- Quote excerpt from a story I'm writing, working title "The Progeny"

“You act like we’re talking about two different Earths.” She said rather pointedly, trying not to look utterly appalled at the thought of the Aliens going after infants like juicy grapes. She shuddered a little.

“I am. I believe you’ve somehow come from another reality because while there are obvious similarities, there’s too much that’s different… so either you came from another reality, or you’re delusional and a great liar.”  He watched her eyes bulge and gain that vibrant light inside them again. He also couldn’t help but feel like her body had gotten hotter all of a sudden, like a wall of warmth washing against his torso and legs. He was about to ask about it when her confusion and contemplation suddenly stopped. Blanking her expression and freezing her body like she was suddenly a statue. “Miss?” Her eyes looked vacant, staring at his chest as she looked dead ahead, apparently no longer home as it were. He leaned in again, hands on either side of hers, just behind her own on the medical bed, for a closer look into her eyes. Their color had been the biggest difference from a human eye he could see until now; blazing full of that sun-beam green, almost literally flickering with an electric fire inside the Iris. He held his breath and leaned a little closer, blue eyes narrowing in on her pupils which looked unusually dilated. In those pitch black voids he could have sworn there were distant fireworks. Little flashes of speckled light, like he could see into her brain as her synapse fired off in the depths of her mind. He was so entranced by the sight of it, he was slow to realize her pupils were constricting until they were like needle points of black staring back at him through the blazing electric green that circled them. He tried to lean back and erect himself away from her to give her space again but her hand shot up and clutched the neckline of his war-vest pulling him back in with a strength that seemed like it should have been beyond her ability.

He could feel the heat of her hand through the fabric of his armored shirt. It was so warm to him he thought there should have been steam coming off her, but there wasn’t. Her voice was very low when she spoke, and her eyes more fixed on his than they’d ever been like she was willing him to believe her and understand what she was going to say.

“Dehy’s must have picked up my arrival, they’re coming and by the feel of it, they’re bringing a war ship, if what you’re saying is true, you’ve not crossed one of these before because they’ve been sampling you and your people. If you don’t want this to turn into the first real blood-bath you’ve ever seen, then you need to give me back my gear and prep a boarding party of your best close-quarter combat fighters, preferably melee weaponry.” Her husky vocals where whispered across his mouth with an edge meant to cut through his doubt though still he fought it. She watched his brows furrowed a little, stormy blues narrowing and his arms tensing like he was debating on trying to put her down. She clenched his vest harder, jerking him a little and raising her voice to a more normal level. “If you hesitate to heed my warning and accept my help, it’ll already be too late and your people will spend the next hundred years hiding like cockroaches among the rubble, Commander Bobeck.”
