Lovers II: The Scientists
Love is the grandest unifying theory
Mandelbrot knew love:
a heart expands fractally.
Hawking knew love:
when bodies combine, infinity becomes real.
Feynman knew love:
strange particles collide, interact, entangle.
Now I know love:
Your gravity shifts my universe.
Our atoms bond frictionlessly,
eternity passes timelessly.
Proven by our synthesis:
Perpetual emotion is not a myth.

Baby's First Steps (Ending)
The ISS is oscillating, gently but constantly. I am tethered in the Soyuz descent module. It's docked at the far end of the Russian Zvezda module, mothballed and neglected. For decades since the 1960s, these old Russian ships had been our Crew Return Vehicles – our lifeboats – until SpaceX's Dragon programme superceded them.

A Letter to the Firestarter
Dear Firestarter, We can all see you, we've been watching you since you began. In case you didn't know we were here before you and we will be here after. We witnessed your rise, your setbacks, your guilt and your lies. We witnessed you start the fire.

Not Just For Clean Up: A History Of The MCU's Department of Damage Control
Initially an organisation that seemed to exist to help the heroes of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, from Phase Four onwards, the Department of Damage Control has shifted into a more antagonistic role. Most recently seen in the Wonder Man series, the current incarnation of Damage Control seems to target superpowered individuals, regardless of whether that person poses an active or intentional threat.
