Sitting on Daytona Beach, mulling over a tale. Got an idea but do I go horrid or nice?
 
@TheEndIsNigh .... Hanging Around .... Left me with the question; "What is a blue bottle?" --- I looked it up. Insight received.
 
@Parson

It must have been quite confusing - still chuckling at what may have been going through your mind as it boggled at the thought.
 
Sitting under Apollo rocket, mulling over a tale. Got an idea but do I go cosmic or earthbound?
 
@ThatWordCat .... Not There .... Given enough time some of what seems to be inside is outside and vice versa.

@BigJ .... The Enduring Hardship of Social Class in the 26th Century .... In the end every period of extended loneliness begins to feel like solatary confinement.

@Bren G .... Outside Influence .... It may be surprising to find how much outside influence can have outsized influence.

@StilLearning .... Echoes From Outside / Outsider Othered: .... Of course what is summoned doesn't come, and what isn't summoned is feared. What we have here is a failure to communicate.

*Colony of creatures, don't @ me biologists.
