Pluto Needs Porn!
by Shiawasena Ryokō-sha The sound of a groan brought John groggily around, the sound strangely expansive in his ears after the confines of his helmet. Oh no, his helmet. The last he remembered, they’d been out on the ice, getting a core sample so they could pick a good spot to set up the […]

Me, Myself, and I
written and illustrated by Iron Eater I had never professionally worked with humans before, but just like any other civilized person I’d had my share of good-neighbor educational segments, so I already knew a little bit about them when I got notice of the new transfer. I’d been working solo at the Gaval De Autonomous […]

Anywhere I Wander
by Togi Kayako (土宜草子) The gathering bags strapped to Lyss’ hips and slung over her broad shoulders sagged low by the time she reached the end of the long row of melongrapes. She left the last plant untouched and tossed one green and purple striped ball from her overflowing pile onto the ground, crushing it […]

Before Landfall
by causeways Jorge was waiting by the gate for his partner to show up for the last patrol before landfall. It was a miserable day, exactly the kind of day that needed a kaiju to really seal the deal. Normally the coast was warm and beautiful this time of year, but today the whole beach […]

The Maiden Voyage
by CircleTime “We’re losing power!” The cry went up around the bridge. Navigation Technician Jacob Primary’s face whitened as his holographic screen shifted colour before his eyes – going from a pleasing, gentle blue to a more concerning shade of amber.

Dead Man’s Switch
by Shirozubon Saruko (城図凡然る子) DAY 292 The thing loomed up over him, blotting out the windscreen in his vision, taking up almost all of the space in the flight deck. It hardly even looked like anything recognizably alive: it was just a twisting mass of fibrous, tangling filaments, no sense or order in them that […]

Rule 63
by shukyou (主教) illustrated by Tamago (卵) Like any good scientific endeavor, the Parallel Universes Research Laboratory ran on rules, and we all had our favorites. It was hard not to — they were all absolutely necessary, and yet so weirdly specific that you sort of couldn’t not get attached. Maggie latched onto the […]

Mending Porch
by Hyakunichisou 13 (百日草 十三) Read this piece’s entry on the Shousetsu Bang*Bang wiki. So I know it’s been a while Keith looked down at the screen, frowning. His phone wasn’t attempting a guess at the unknown sender, not even providing an initial in the generic silhouette in front of the number. Not a […]

moon language, et cetera
by Lee Gabrielle Crow Read this piece’s entry on the Shousetsu Bang*Bang wiki. April truly is the rainiest month. Of course, the Crescent City is no stranger to moisture – a city built atop a swamp on the Mississippi’s mouth, gradually sinking ever lower until one day, the sandbags won’t work and the levees will […]
