The Monotony of Eternity
Matted gray hair moved rhythmically with Ian’s new heartbeat. As he looked in the mirror at his scar and then down towards his chest the rug of gray chest hair pulsed like a sleepy chipmunk curling up for a nap.

An Elementary Trip To The Zoo
Somewhere on a rural cosmopolitan island, nervous sweat emerged from Buddy’s forehead as the elementary grade school curious George monitored the concrete as the mass transportation left the city jungle.

Thicker than Blood. Content Warning.
It was that time of month again. Cramping and migraines were welcome. The years before menopause provided the chance for increased life expectancy and reduced pain for women in Chloe’s condition.

Permanent Life Program. Content Warning.
Humanity was a tool. Ever since Edmund had used the gun to take a life as the age of ten, the weapon in his hand had felt no different to himself. Metal to skin, hand on trigger, the bang and flash. Who was the real weapon?

A Quiet Exit?
Please press play on the link you prefer before reading. Boris Pope invested in a suicide machine, for he thought it'd be serene. His life would quietly disappear, and he'd be without fear. He thought as the nitrogen entered the chamber and his oxygen levels decreased, he'd enter into a deep slumber.

Children of the Sun. Runner-Up in The Life-Extending Conundrum Challenge.
It was a perfect day. The cerulean sky above was completely cloudless and the late morning sun burned bright above; the wind was calm, little more than a gentle breeze. Behind me, I could hear the sounds of brunch being served over by the hotel’s opulent outdoor dining area; the clinking of silverware and soft, indecipherable speech dotted with superficial laughter.

I peek around the corner into your room. You’re almost back. You’ll wake up soon. How many times is this? I lost track long ago.

Dunbar Labs
Thank you for listening to Tech Stuff. I’m Johnathan Strickland the 165th. Today’s story is about Doctor Gretta Jordan, the youngest person to open her own lab. At 20, she started Dunbar Labs, which made some of the biggest discoveries in centuries. By the age of 35, she made Time Magazine's person of the year three times, she’s published many research papers and launched her own podcast. Dunbar Labs was the first lab to clone a human being, they also perfected cryogenics and made mechanical body parts with skin that looks and feels like the real thing.

The Extended Life. Content Warning.
It was late. The sun was coming through the window, and the old scientist could no longer postpone what was coming. They imagined it wouldn't be much different than the few hours of sleep gotten each night, but wasn't sure, and was anxious to see what was to come.
