Ethertravel report #2, received February 12, 2417.

I, Johnny Tavaros, am an ethertraveler. I went out in one of the early groups in 2416.

I arrived into the world in a confusion of darkness and pressure. Was I not born yet?

I wanted to be born, and then I was. I burst out of what I realized had been an egg. I looked at myself and was surprised to see that I was myself. That is, I was still the human Johnny Tavaros. I arrived in the world fully clothed, in clothes I had owned on Earth. How was this possible?

hand in hand,
against the unholy wave.

Shall you take up your weapon,
Shall you be our saviour?

A Mother's Love

by Alys
           "I'm breastfeeding her" I said simply.

Janis looked like she had seen a ghost, she looked at me
in complete bemusement, then apparently decided that she
was dealing with someone who might be mentally deranged
and reached for her phone to no doubt phone security

"Wait," I said," before you phone let me show you."

"Show me what?" she demanded.

"How I can breast feed" I replied.

"But you're a man!"

Steve begins an emotional journey as he finds out
just how far he will have to go in order to save
the life of his newborn daughter!
