Jess Mahler<p>Finally reached the points in Planting Life in a Dying City that need actual revising, so work has slowed down a LOT, only abuot 1000 words today.</p><p>Still, progress is progress.</p><p>Have a snippet:</p><p>---<br>Chotaikytsai sat at the fire with Tsouchm. The crackling flames were loud in the quiet night. Their neighbors had already retreated to their homes for the night, at the city was almost disturbingly silent. It was quiet enough ey could almost hear Lefeng, Kolchais, and Kyawtchais talking by the gate. Almost.</p><p>The murmur of words was indistinct, but Chotaikytsai could see clearly the shy smiles and shining eyes. The joy in Kyawtchais' hands. </p><p>With a smile of eir own, Chotaikytsai reached out to take Tsouchm's hand. Eir skin looked nearly black against Chotaikytsai's lighter brown, the difference caused by the years Tsouchm had spent working in the sun while Chotaikytsai wove. Chotaikytsai traced eir thumb across one of the darker spots that dotted Tsouchm's hand and sighed at the young parents finally saying their goodnights. "To be young again, ey?" </p><p><a href="https://indiepocalypse.social/tags/PlantingLife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>PlantingLife</span></a> <a href="https://indiepocalypse.social/tags/Snippet" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Snippet</span></a> <a href="https://indiepocalypse.social/tags/AmWriting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AmWriting</span></a></p>

I can't compare them. They're both brilliant but in vastly different ways. Dr. Death is a scientist, a doctor, and a manipulative bastard. Alexios is the leader of a gang, is rather good at keeping the peace between said gangs, is well-trained in combat, was once a nomad on his own, and fled Dr. Death's ship centuries ago (while the rest of his people died in that man's clutches). They're so, so different, but incredibly good at what they do.</p><p><a href="https://mindly.social/tags/LGBT" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>LGBT</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/LGBTQIA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>LGBTQIA</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/TheCityOfOpulence" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>TheCityOfOpulence</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/DigitalDystopiaSeries" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DigitalDystopiaSeries</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/Cyberpunk" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Cyberpunk</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/SFF" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SFF</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/ScienceFiction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ScienceFiction</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/Romance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Romance</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/Worldbuilding" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Worldbuilding</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/AmWriting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AmWriting</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/WritingCommunity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>WritingCommunity</span></a></p>

How do they handle the situation?</p><p>In a busy city, much like where he currently lives, Alexios would start by questioning people he finds along the way. He would ask for directions, ask for any information he could use, and then eventually find his way. But here's the thing, Alexios has never been bothered by things like this. With everywhere he's lived, it's been this way. He was once lost in every city, on every continent, on every planet.</p><p><a href="https://mindly.social/tags/LGBT" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>LGBT</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/LGBTQIA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>LGBTQIA</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/TheCityOfOpulence" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>TheCityOfOpulence</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/DigitalDystopiaSeries" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DigitalDystopiaSeries</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/Cyberpunk" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Cyberpunk</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/SFF" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SFF</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/ScienceFiction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ScienceFiction</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/Romance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Romance</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/Worldbuilding" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Worldbuilding</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/AmWriting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AmWriting</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/WritingCommunity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>WritingCommunity</span></a></p>
