There’s a tacit agreement in place, in the ‘Ghost From The Machine’ universe: you don’t ask scientists about why you need one particular bit of android to transfer consciousness and memory, and scientists don’t feel obligated to make a fuss over the entire thing. This is just something that happens. It’s a Mystery, everybody accepts it, and gets on with the war.

Patreon stuff: New Bold Marauder installment, new Collection.
The new Bold Marauder installment is paywalled; the new Collection (War of the Mountain King, done back in the day) is not. Be sure to check them both out! the short story and new RPG material will show up at the end of the month, as usual.
Patreon Microfiction: Sufficiently Developed Technology.
‘Sufficiently Developed Technology’ assumes that nobody else would develop purely mechanistic ways to mess around with the universe, which admittedly seems very low-probability. Then again, how do we know it’s low-probability? When it comes to sapient species development, we’re dealing with one heck of a small sample size.
Patreon Microfiction: “The Girl With the Sensible Boots.”
So, I took a look at “The Girl With the Sensible Boots,” and decided that it could make a suitable short story. So I made it into one. You can find it here.
The January Patreon stuff is up!
It is a measure of this week that I wrote that out originally as ‘December.’
- Fiction: The Girl and the Garrison Job. New Fermi Resolution story, for everybody who liked “The Last Raygun in the World.” I also need to stop giving away the plot in the title.
- RPG Material: Hex Nation, Part 5a: Troubles, Foreign. Originally ‘Foreign and Domestic,’ but I realized that I had enough material for two parts.
The full ARTIFACTS RPG setting is up on Patreon! For free!
ARTIFACTS is a post-time travel setting, system-agnostic, and dedicated to the proposition that time travel sucks. I’m doing this group discussion thing now with folks who do RPG-related Patreons, and some of ’em signed up for free memberships today, so I figured I’d finally get it up there on Patreon. Click the link above to read it for free! Click the link below to sign up for money!
Patreon Microfiction: Season’s Greetings.
What is the true message of ‘Season’s Greetings?’ Easy. Angels are terrifying. Sure, there’s some stuff about Christmas in there, but take this away from the text, if nothing else: angels are terrifying.
Patreon Microfiction: The Seam In tHe World.
I wonder if the spelling in ‘The Seam In tHe World’ bugs people as much as it bugs me. Probably not. That’s why I added the bit about hearing the Capital H. I figure the scream would bug people in-universe just fine.
End of Chapter 9 of THE BOLD MARAUDER is up on Patreon!
Paywalled now, alas, but now available in EPUB and PDF as you go. There’s going to be at least monthly installments, on or around the 15th from now on. Check out THE BOLD MARAUDER today!
Patreon Microfiction: Salamander.
I don’t really want to do much with ‘Salamander.’ Sharon’s doing fine, and the worldbuilding involved sounds really, really… well, dull, honestly. I don’t have the chemistry and biology I’d need, sorry.
