Tomorrow’s Letter

Dear Maggie,

It’s been too long- our seasonal room has changed up to 15 times since you last came over!

I know it gets more difficult each year to part from your studies and slumber job, so no rush.

Speaking of jobs, I finally got on the waitlist for host. I had to make some changes, but your wyline here has made a good setup to feed the implant and keep the wyque flowing. My mom said she was pr...

From Me, 100 Years In The Future

To my most dear and long lost friend.

Time has passed in the blink of an eye, yet past remains as tranquil and static as what past means.

Hopefully, you have not heard of me nor know anything about me. That would keep things easier for the both of us.

Every single thing we knew is far lost between the mystery of time and the illusion of permanence in which we are enthralled into . Those unchangeab...

To Daisy

*the year is 2007* Why hello my friend, you might be wondering why I am writing, funny story actually, I am writing to you from the future, 1000 years to be exact, before you freak out, there are some things I need you to know, so I am able to sleep easy, knowing you won’t fall for these horrible tricks in your world at this time.


First of all, there is this weird thing, I think it is called, tik...

Dear Friend

Dear friend,

You may not remember nor know me, but I know you. I have known you for a millennia. The year for you is 2025 but the year for me is 2125. How I awoke in the future, I am not sure as I am in the same body I was in one hundred years ago. I awake once per century within a new body, or reincarnation, as you mortals like to call it. My soul and memories stay intact preventing me from livin...

Endlessly

Dear Alessia,

It has been 100 years since we said goodbye. It has been 182 years since we met. 140 years since I was cursed with immortality. I have existed without a heart since you died. My chest is a cold void, never to be filled or warmed. We were supposed to be best friends forever. You promised. You promised you would never leave me. I know you had no choice. Death can for you, the way it w...

The Hidden Letter

Dear Jean,

There is so much I wish I could tell you in person but that isn’t possible just yet. I’ve been working with Von Donkey to make a Time Machine out of tin cans this has been easier said than done.Which reminds me I woke the observatory the place you may know as Trace High School was torn we down and now it is a observatory.The idea that these scientists come up with has been insane but...

I Miss Hope

Dear Bro,


A one word government. They succeeded. We’ve had to hide in caves, eating off of each other, insects and dirt. We have to hide. I told you we needed to get rid of them. I never thought they would truly win. I always thought Christianity will prevail.


Even the best of us must be killed. Nothing but mere scruffs in their presence.


The “chosen people” have won...

BELIEVE ME

Hi, Dave. It’s me, John. Let me take a second to build up some credibility. In 6 years on January 27th, you’re going to get married to Sarah, the girl you keep complaining about who sits in front of you in your Biomechanics class. At your bachelor party beforehand is when you finally let on about how your shitty dad beat you your whole life until he croaked from cancer when we were in ninth grade ...

Always Connected

Dear Ryan,


It’s been a while since I’ve wrote last. Please write to me as soon as possible, there is something I’d love to hear your opinion on. Galactic’s here have discovered that since we had to move to another planet, they think it has somehow connected us to the past, to Earth 1.0.


Something about light years and other scientific wording. I’ve wondered for so long how we were able to speak ...

Torvi

Agatha’s wrist buzzed. A small red light appeared there and commenced blinking. A mesage. Likely from Torvi. Agatha flipped her wrist in a what’s next gesture. Blue light particles shot out. They danced in the air creating a human shape. With a snap, the outline was granted detail and depth. It was Torvi. Female, gelod standard, second cycle, donned in clinical blue overalls with yellow stripes. T...
