Hipsters talk more than Boomers these days.

Abraham Kim last shared their writing where could dave be?
Carl was worried for his boss. Dave the Big Dog had never shown up to work late in his two years there. Now it was eleven. No message or whereabouts known.

"What do you think we should do?"

"Shush. Let me think, James."

Only the two of them knew that Dave hadn't come...

she was passing out as reply to Keith Said

"Dude I'm freaking the fuck out."

"Chill, man--"

"Your wife isn't the one who's missing!"

I don't even have a wife, Aaron thought. "Yeah yeah. Man. But it's been what. Few days now? She'll turn up."

"You keep repeating these affirming words. But they're not based on any evidence."

"Come on. I got evidence! You...

want to make 60 bucks? as reply to A Finely Tuned Machine

They somehow ended up leaving the  McDonalds at the same time. They hadn't said much to each other. Only the comments about that particular McDonalds being oddly good compared to the rest. So it wasn't like they were having a conversation as they left. They walked in silence. Threw away...

the mid point table as reply to His McFlurry

Senior year was a blur. Looking back at least. In the moment she felt like so many things were happening. Time felt incredibly long. Practices. Parties. Sleepovers. Exams. Games. Dances. Looking back as an adult all of those things kind of blurred into a simple image. the same vibration.

She had...

didn't need an answer as reply to Drifted Off

She found it strange. To want to sleep by the ocean. She'd be unconscious for most of it. So why did it matter where she slept. Maybe there was an argument for how nice it felt leading up to finally drifting off.

Getting into her pajamas. Slipping into bed. Turning the...

one day would be plenty as reply to Wanted

Keith's apartment was the second story of a mixed commercial/residential brick building on a moderately busy part of town. The town wasn't big. The strip he lived on sat mostly empty past eight, unless there was some significant event taking place. Most of the foot traffic came during the day....

before dozing off as reply to Wanted

He continued to lick his ice cream. He couldn't just move away. That would be awkward. But he gave no sign that he wanted to chat. He hoped she would get the message and sit someplace else on her own accord. But she stayed put. Kept glancing over. Keith tried...

mcflurry as reply to An Ice Cream

The man drove without the radio. Years up in space will do that to ya. Or at least did to him. Enjoyed the silence. Not really silent since the car made noise. The engine's hum. The tires on the asphalt. But no music needed.

It was his day off. He liked...

ages ago as reply to Waste

Imogen Howe was exiting the zone. For five hours she had driven nonstop. The same ten songs playing on repeat. She had felt like a machine the entire time. There was nothing that was going to stop her. She passed by each car smoothly. Hit no potholes. Hardly touched the...

The Zone as reply to She Went

Sarah was in The Zone. This is what she called the experience of her feeling like she had taken over the person she was controlling. Chases didn't happen like in the old days. Back then the chasers were literally in the car. Or on foot. Following.

Now she simply used a...
