Liking the sci-fi procedural vibe! I appreciated the way the prologue jumped around to show us each of the different 'verses (that reminded me a bit of the way the book Good Omens jumps around!), but it was good to have the focus solely here on Callihan and Clarke. All of these chapters read like a show! I'd love to see it get big and become a fully-fledged show! So glad I stumbled across your writing! :)
Ooh, yikes. I started reading in the middle of all this (the reference to Holland totally fits) and even so, that caught me by surprise. What a way to go.
I want a koth for a pet. I have a baby one in one of my stories:
The sculpture standing in front of the pair was a gargantuan beast with askew horns and a ridiculous grin framed by floppy ears. Once Jacky got in it would be terrifyingly happy with smoking red eyes and a sonorous snout.
Two quick notes not directly related to the narrative.
First, I learned this weekend Irish Emergency Services - 999 - forwards "911" calls to 999, mostly for the benefit of Americans. It's reasonable to assume the UK does as well.
Second, when attempting to read comments (or write one) Substack loads a new page. On this tablet, running Opera for Android that means I'm long-pressing the next chapter button to queue up the next bit so I can close this tab instead of backing up a page and re-scrolling to the Next Chapter button. Quirk of the interface.
Glad you didn't replace your original art with a Midjourney thing. Midjourney is great for generating semi random things, but it does fall apart with specificity. Have you tried to get into the Dall-E beta? I've not, but from what I've seen friends prompt it seems to have better control.
Thanks for reading, everyone!

Woah! You got me at the end. :)
