"Just as we are liars, we are also thieves. [...] That whole write-what-you-know thing? It’s not advice. It’s a curse. Don’t worry. We won’t use your soul exactly as it has been taken. We’ll fuck with it first. Molest it with our greasy ham-hands. Of course, you’ll be reading something and say, 'Is that me?' And the writer will say, 'No, no, of course not.' Because the writer is a stinky poo-poo liar who fucking lies." -Chuck Wendig, 2010

Their Trimmings
Human, robot, human, robot, leather, bedazzled words lit up in lasers, steel, secret skeleton hands and vinyl. Steel walls, towers, two towers. Neon plays tricks for soft eyes. Each helmet is a hot zone. It’s always summer but never the beach. No trunks, just leather from head to toe, except for the steel. Shields always up, but always grounded, never stars. Robot, robot, human after all?
