Material Risk
It was misting when Lee stepped out of the small yellow cab. The asphalt was emitting steam from the heat of the evening. Pedestrians rubbed shoulders as they navigated the narrow street with all it’s cart vendors and mopeds buzzing by. Lee’s consulting practice had taken him to many far-out stretches of the globe, but the southeast Asian countries always stood out as the most unique. He found himself in Thailand this time on a typical client request.

Matthias Scott - Air Pirate; Part 3
Stirling paused, his body in shock for a long moment after that dreaded word came over the line. The only thing that made the gears of his mind turn again was his communications officer asking him what was going on. Slowly, he looked at the man, then at the phone that was still in his hand, and set the latter down with a soft click as the earpiece relaxed into its cradle. Then without looking to the other man, Stirling spoke gravely. “Alert security. We're being boarded.”

Mama Ble
Mama Ble. I regularly compared Mama Ble to the raging of the seas. Never had there been a time, where I had seen Mama B in anything but blue. One day, she was a summer ocean wave blue, and the next, a tired sea. Her walk was always graceful like the calming of water before a seasonal storm. Her dresses swept the concrete like the ripples of welcoming waves. Swish, Swish, Swish. Her black church shoes skipped amongst the pavement like the shells that would dance onto beach shores. Even without the sun, her skin shimmered. She was a fresh tanned brown woman, a sea lion that basked in the sun’s open arms.
