#PennedPossibilities 730 — 2nd Anniversary Edition: Share a blurb, summary, or tiny snippet explaining your WIP to everyone in the hashtag.

Happy two years, everyone! We made it! 🤍

This is actually my summary:

This is the story of one man, more machine than human, and how he survived the centuries. Something is coming, someone from his past, and it's time to prepare.

Citune is a cyberpunk-inspired world. Alexios is the leader of Destiny's Maelström, a rebel gang and crime circuit. They own various warehouses and other businesses in the city of Ethera. Before forming his gang, centuries prior, he had been a nomad on his own with nothing more than a motorbike, his belongings, and a dark past. Now his gang operates on the black market selling various antiquities, oddities, weaponry, and medical equipment for docs, all while raking in more money than any other gang involved in underground sales.

#PennedPossibilities 731 — MC POV: Tell us about the last time you felt guilty.

Alexios: Time for some honesty... I told someone that there was nothing between us. (Not naming names, but it might've been Trick.) The night before, we had sex. For context, he has a brain chip from his days as a prozzie (prostitute), and it alters the brain chemistry of possible clients, making them think and feel like they want to say yes, if you catch my drift. Said chip, which he hadn't yet removed, went haywire and randomly turned on. I was already under the influence, having been drinking. We both were. That bloody chip only worsened things. A day later, I told him it meant nothing, that it was all down to the chip. I told him it couldn't happen again. I lied. It wasn't just the chip. I suppose the inhibitions were gone, that's all. Instead, I should've just told him that I love him. Guilt doesn't even begin to describe how I felt.
