Moonbat – We here at the Chronicles apologise whole heartedly to the residents of Slough and their wonderful city, it is after all where Mars Bars come from... but hell, it's a cracking story filled with chewy bits to mull over, a hard science like shell, and a light fluffy ending. How could you not enjoy it, the trouble is once it is gone you still want more...
HB – A very clever tale that shows a more malign and long term deity intent on the destruction of the world. The opening seems to be showing an area of enlightenment, but it soon twisted as greed and desire for life eternal takes hold. There is probably a truthfulness about this that is hard to see, but the additional bit about a god prepared to set something like this up and wait, letting man do his work for him is probably going to be more successful than any full on assault.
Anya – As always a quirky different tale allowing to see things from different perspectives, but I think what I liked most was the decision of where to define her end of the world. Perhaps for some this would be considered the genesis, but in fact with humanity being thrown out of the paradise that had been prepared for them, could this actually be the end of the world?
Cul – Justification for doing or not doing work if there was ever any. Like perhaps playing games, going on Facebook or even writing comments for Chrons while at work? Who would do it eh? Perhaps in many ways this is the greatest reality about seeing the end of the world. It might seem to be something worth seeing, but it is in fact The End, and knowing what is coming and bring the end, on a personal level a little closer a little sooner.
AJB – Another excellent idea and a well presented one. Sometimes knowing too much might be a bigger curse than a blessing. There is probably a feeling that you have become near omnipotent with the ability to step between realities and look at alternate Earth's, until you find that one thing that destroys you belief and world. A brilliant twist when you find your soulmate in the arms of another, under minds everything and your bedrock crumbles.
