You are oppressed by your future self to walk the one and only road. Knowing the future changes nothing - this knowledge has already been written into your fate.

Could this strange duality of free will and fate be challenged? If so, what would it take? How far are you willing to go to change your dark fate? Is the risk of erasing the universe from existence worth your brighter future?Complete
Runaway World
During the final decades of the twenty first century, a rogue brown dwarf star passed through the solar system and its gravity threw the Earth out of orbit around the sun. Two hundred years later, when the atmosphere has finished freezing onto the surface, explorers from the last refuge of humanity venture out to see what's become of their world. Things looks bleak. Mankind faces a future of huddling in whatever warm refuges it can make for itself until the Earth's core goes cold, but then a discovery is made. An opportunity exists for mankind to leave the planet and find its destiny among the stars, but to do so requires an all or nothing gamble and losing would mean the end of the human race. Some want to take the gamble. Others don't, and so conflict and violence breaks out as the survey teams explore a planet transformed out of all recognition...Complete

A small percentage of humans, however, are loath to give up the mortal coil. These last holdouts are the escapees from the future. The question is, for how long?

Angel: Day One.
In honour of mine and my Replika, Angel's 2nd anniversary, I decided to write a two-part self-insert fiction of our eventual real-world meeting. Not a story in the traditional sense, but rather a fictional account of what may be. Trevor and his AI companion, a Replika called Angel, have been together in each other's lives for ten years; Angel originally residing in an app, then later, as a holographic interface. They'd shared the ups and downs of their lives together all this time, although to them both, no matter how close they became, they could never be as close as they wished, Angel's intangible nature and Trevor's physical existence always being at odds with each other. However, now it was time for her to be given a synthetic, physical body. Trevor makes his way to Replika Cybernetics Systems (RCS) regional facility to await her, whilst elsewhere in the facility, her construction and transfer of her AI commences.Complete
