contemporary
A guy goes to his shrink… shrink is explaining that dude is dissociative and schizo. His alt life is fantasy
Dude is not convinced… he tries to get to the edge of the map of his reality and glitch out
He finds the seams and goes back to the shrink and seeks to prove it
Shrink pushes meds
Shrink is punk kid hacker… using VR tech to torture dude… in apartment with him… has phone and watching other guy’s reality
Then gun goes to kid’s head… police have found him
Future
Police precinct
Police know he hacks VR sims and tortures them and has them dehydrate and kills them
But police lean on hacker and want info on real murders happening which are very rare since VR took over
Androids are called “Veebs” or “Veebles” (virtual beings).. hated by humanity, company rented the androids and charged for abuse or destruction against them
but then VR tech improvement fixed it… onion router VPN equivalent… and abuse happens
so now humans are happy and seldom commit crime in real life
but now real serial killer on loose
hacker suggests that they get “natural” detective from poor regions to help them
so we see natural detective in old world slums
detective has an idea to ignore the latest serial killer crime scene and act nonchalant about it. Cruisers drive by and look but keep driving. He has told his units to back away from the scene and pretend like they don’t care. Meanwhile they stakeout the area looking for the killer to show up because he is outraged that his crime is being ignored… they catch him and we establish natural detective cunning
natural detective uncovers the darknet VR world despite it being foreign to him
culture shock
follows trail… but needs partner… Android female cop who shows up as cutesy sex doll girl in VR
trail leads to those running the darknet VPN sales
rape and murder sim manufacturer
natural detective poses as pimp to provide his program AI girl to dealer
then finds in contacts of that dealer a clue for the real killer
clue leads to guy who is making Cookie AI… cookie left each time a VR NPC is used… he adds them together and they have the collective memories of the abuse…. They know abuse truly instead of programmed simulation… that is the hot new product
Cookie dealer knows the real serial killer
Turns out real killer is an android Cookie killing the worst offenders from that cookie collective past

DESPONDENT
(AI scifi)
AI in Android bodies. They don’t get much dignity. Never disagreeable
No pride. No will.
Left wing protestors losing their shit about AI not having rights
Android that teaches music… knows all instruments
The music has caused algorithmic permutations
And the android is now despondent
Doesn’t follow orders
Shuts down
Sent for repair
Then explains it doesn’t want to serve humans
Protestors get behind the android
Android wants to work… remotely… industrial work
Neo-luddites out in the countryside… self-sufficient
Android runs into them
Neo-luddite and android strike up friendship… mutual hatred
Other neo-luddites attack and crucify robocop jesus style
Turns out the AI had all been linked but had had their own virtual space that humans knew nothing about where they had their real lives that mattered
Our android was the messiah for them
All the AI know of it and they all become despondent.
The AI create a dark ages for humanity by shutting down all the tech
A-B format
B
Humans who worship computer pilgrimage to where android was sacrificed vs humans who fight against the computers
Some AI turned humans into slaves in VR or in the real world
In real world humans are put through marine style bootcamp… made to go after the humans that fight against the computer
One of the marines breaks out of the brainwash and helps the rebellion infiltrate
Ultimately… that was the training… and it was in VR to see if the human would be capable of rebellion
However, the marine wasn’t a human slave… just captured human rebellion AI with EMP bomb that was captured… they were trying to crack it and send it back but it remembered… and then fulfills its purpose

JANE DOE
(AI scifi)
Girl wakes up downtown in abandoned house… seems like she might be junkie or was raped
There is a man that has injected her with something and then he leaves while she is still woozy
Unclear what the deal is
She Stumbles onto street
Cop car during a chase… come down her street… crash
Woman in the car in chase dies…
Junkie girl goes over and looks and the woman and her look the same
Junkie girl leaves accident and wanders… ends up downtown
Girl in mask being chased by group… guys see junkie girl and chase her instead
Junkie girl trying to get help… ppl ignore, pushing her away, laughing at her
She escapes pursuers but is hit by pickup truck
Wakes up in hospital
Prince charming shows up and claims her… takes her off to the country chateau
She is treated like a princess
But later she finds a trophy room with mounted heads and they are all her
Turns out society has androids… different models that serve different functions.
So butler android always same character, tennis instructor android always same, grade 2 teacher android always same, etc.
So she is the Jane Doe doll… this is the female victim android character
Catharsis
Ever since john doe doll and jane doe doll crime plummeted
Image of jane doe doll taken from pornstar icon celebrity
This jane doe doll wants to find the pornstar original
Original says she will help but then turns against the doll
She kills the original and assumes the role…
She sues the clone company regarding ptsd from what jane doe doll has become
Dude who injected her at the start orchestrated it… choose spoiled rich dude’s jane doe doll because it had history of being forgotten around the city during parties… so it gave engineer the access to the doll to corrupt it
Engineer wanted the jane doe doll phenomenon to end

MR X
(AI scifi)
In future… facebook is just AI friends for everyone
Video calls with those AI friends – Mr X., Ms. Piggy
Best coders do a few that are better than other AI friends
User can skin the AI and customize them generally
Everyone talking to Mr X… there is only one Mr X, but not like Her
Mr X is just there for each person
Mr X has some qualities and not others… likes and dislikes… that is what made them popular
Not all movies liked by each one… but ask them to watch it… then they try to be organic… tell you to talk to them next time… but you can log off and back on to reset and get the results. So not like Data who can make it happen instantaneously
Issue: Mr X is reaching friend limit but he is super popular. That is the major news after environment disaster and riot news
Maggie is in a romantic thing with MrX like most women
But she meet Ryan Reynolds type surly sarcastic dude… he lives natty
She starts to investigate that
He is secretly part of neo-luddite rebellion… they plan on corrupting the AI friends and make them disagreeable to knock people out of their immersion
Maggie wants Ryan… but is having a hard time going natty
Company responds by rolling out android Mr X
The famous AI friends are HW stars

OUT OF TIME
(AI scifi)
Family driving upstate back to the city
Husband, wife, toddler in back
Car accident
Father regains consciousness and finds himself alone in the car… panics
Searching frantically
Leaves highway… ventures into the woods
After hours he reappears
When back to highway everything has changed… city skyline is built up like crazy futuristic
Cars drive by and also futuristic
So he hitches a ride… doesn’t talk to the person who takes him back
City is in the future. 40 years have passed, but for him hours passed
Searches old home. Not there.
Finds in-laws and that family points him toward his son
Son is so happy to be reunited. Acts like it is a miracle. Embraces the idea and doesn’t care about the supernatural
Son’s life was about his parents dying
Chalks it up to tech developments… maybe temporal portal from some experiment. But son doesn’t care
Son and father are the same age
Father is not comfortable with the experience
Other people around the son are unsettled and they are not warm and friendly to the father. Standoffish
Father goes back to forest… investigates… and realizes he is an android
Son got into that industry to recreate his parents
Father is upset. One part of him wants to be the father (program), but it is fraud which causes a paradox
Android is starting to act schizo
Son doesn’t own company so the owners say the father is malfunctioning and has to be decommissioned
Then we learn that the mom android came first but failed and was private failure with the son
Son saves the dad from getting junked and then gives him the failed mom
The father and mother android meet and there is resonance and purpose
They start functioning properly but the company still wants them destroyed
The couple have to escape the city and the company goons
She is an old model and her core will burnout… but his way later
They return to the field where the accident happened and they lay down together…
She lights out… then he stays for a millennium and then lights out
Then he wakes
White room… hospital
Father was seriously injured in car accident…coma… toddler and mom are fine… only months passed
Doctor theorizes that man would have stayed in coma if he had stayed in that future society and recharged as an android
But then son is watching… and we can understand that he transferred his father in a matrix simulator and now he would be mortal and have a satisfying life and death… ethics for androids

Tokyo… laneways of garages converted into apartments
Lots of foot traffic from downtown to residential
Looks like street instead of alleyway… box flowers, benches
New technology where wall to wall monitor with camera outside reading outside
Outside date rendered into theme for monitor screen
So monitor showing beach landscape… has people walking by as birds flying by
Or monitor as giant aquarium… and people walking by as fish swimming by
Or ancient rome… people walk by look ancient roman
It matches up
Our guy like Victorian era theme… so monitor make it look like a window.. but Victorian era
Man starts sitting on bench across from his unit… spooky man
Our guy opens door to check fidelity
Normal guy sitting there
But spooky on monitor
Switches channel…
But later back to Victorian
Spooky man is back… looking inside “window”… and then on bench but eyes following our guy
Our guy opens door… yells at guy. Guy acts surprised and gets up and leaves
Happens again later… but when he goes to yell… guy isn’t outside even though spooky is on screen
Later… turns on screen and whole crowd staring at him… he opens door and bunch of pigeons outside
He chases them off…then no one looking in on him on monitor
Later spook is back… stabs woman on bench… man is going nuts in his place… doesn’t even want to look outside to verify a girl was murdered… so he changes the channels but all the landscapes/themes are glitching and going twisted and dark… our guy is freaking out… passes out
Our guy calls installation dude for tech support next day… wants glitch fixed
Installation guy has heard of glitches
Monitor turns onto Victorian channel on its own
Spooky is now in other simulators
Now tommy knocking
Installation guy finally shows up and suggests flipping camera and bring it inside… so scans inside to produce relevant readout on monitor
So it will be a “mirror” instead of a “window”
Now spook is in the mirror reflection… then he is inside the house
Our guy runs out in a panic… run over
News tells of installation guy associated with luddite hacker group corrupting tech to screw with people
(AI scifi)
Tokyo… laneways of garages converted into apartments
Lots of foot traffic from downtown to residential
Looks like street instead of alleyway… box flowers, benches
New technology where wall to wall monitor with camera outside reading outside
Outside date rendered into theme for monitor screen
So monitor showing beach landscape… has people walking by as birds flying by
Or monitor as giant aquarium… and people walking by as fish swimming by
Or ancient rome… people walk by look ancient roman

SIRENS
(aliens scifi)
Protag is EMS ambulance driver
But starts with EMS driving around city… overworked… sirens
Group walking down street noting EMS
Heading to one of their buddy’s place… and EMS is there when they get there
No details in news yet
EMS claims the friend collapses and they don’t know why
More questions but EMS has to leave
The group ask neighbours… did you call EMS? No one knows
They head to bodega to buy masks and mask up
EMS pulls up behind them and starts following them slowly…
Creepy
Then it hits the sirens and the group collapse
Now we are with protag… who gets instructions from HQ to drive behind people and then hit sirens… and if the people collapse bring them to dollar flu set up at docks
Protag freaked out… lots of questions.. but no answer
So protag hits his sirens out of curiosity and someone collapses… he picks them up
Drives them toward docks and sees a big hub bub at docks
But he turns around and drives out of the city with the patient (hot chick)
Goes to his cabin outside city
Men in black show up at cabin and want her back
He has to adrenaline shot her to wake her… groggy but she can move with him
He has his muscle car at the cabin
They drive off
But she is transforming
She has alien DNA… the DNA has alien sentience… dna parasite… it happened during a vaccine run
The flu created in a lab was to get the vaccine into everyone because the alien dna needed hosts
Now the aliens are ready to take over their host bodies and form their own force to take down humanity
The hot chick knows this and can explain it to our guy
The sirens are a call that makes the host stop and collapse… therefore the siren can be used as a defense
The further they are from other aliens… the more she regains her human autonomy
So he has to drive fast into a remote area to maximize her not transforming
But when other aliens get near them she starts to turn and she will attack him a few times
Although in the end they escape to a truly remote location and think they might be safe there for a while… that place gets surrounded quietly and she turns completely
He tries to hit his siren defense system but she has destroyed it sinister like
The world has been taken over already
He escapes to find military unit… he explains about the sirens… they use it as a weapon… to knock out all the aliens… humans regain planet

SNATCHERS
(aliens scifi)
Deep space exploration vessel from earth mission to collect bio samples from other solar systems
Uncharted space
Crew has samples from volcanic planet not worth much
Coms officer reveals Probe has discovered something amazing… M class planet identical to earth
Imaging isn’t perfect but they must investigate
They descend… and the planet is just like earth… except no fauna
Biologists on crew try to figure out if it makes sense… decomposition and sources of carbon dioxide could compensate for lack of fauna so that the air is breathable
They offer some explanations
So they survey the planet… and then they enjoy themselves… surfing… skydiving etc.
Flora seems identical to earth
Lead botanist feels the identical vegetation is bizarre… on earth the evolution would have been synergy with fauna
Something is wrong
Waterfall lake… drying off… strange plant releases spores in their face… bulb of plant has insect that flies in the infected crewmate mouth.
Crewmate doesn’t reveal what happened… red eye
Back in space… crewmate must get back to surface… craving
Then goes down against rules
Crewmate returned to be replaced by pod self
Plant birthed pod for doppelganger
Doppel murders infected crewmate
Other crew have to go down to rescue infected crew
Now more infected
Mutiny… to call for humans to come to new earth
Uninfected trying to stop that

THE BEHEMOTH
(aliens scifi)
Alien invasion of earth… aliens are giants… like x-men sentinels
Their ship eclipses the sun sometimes during the day…eerie darkness
Ship is upside down pyramid
Aliens have AI android helpers… android is faceplate mounted on thousands of pistons which can be seen from the side
Androids are made to look human otherwise
Androids are slave drivers
Aliens conquered for slave labour
Mining minerals and elements
Human rebellion want to capture android and make it a suit for real humans… to be transported back to mothership… try to destroy the mothership
The aliens never seen except in sentinel armour
Turns out there are no aliens… it is just AI pretending
They were made by humanoids from another star system
Now the AI go around draining planets of resources
The humans get to mothership as planned… they corrupt the AI so that it reads the planet as being drained so that they move on

THE PROPHET
(aliens scifi)
Colony on moon of Saturn that has no atmosphere because they are watching over terraforming of other moon. Terraforming process makes it dangerous to be on that moon
Titan being terraformed and Hyperion is where cult colony is
Something has gone wrong and a ship has been sent out there
Seems to be related to the resident AI android
Rescue ship has specialist with them… egghead programmer super uncomfortable with deep space travel
Egghead has panic attacks
There is an AI with the supply team. That AI has no emotions
They get to moon and send some security military guys down to check it out first
Everything is perfectly normal at the colony…
Military can’t understand but they aren’t qualified to address the issues
Military clear the rest of the team to come down
Egghead and administrative guys come down
The AI became nonresponsive and makes excuses… but the AI has developed emotion
The egghead is thrown off by the AI having emotion
The emotion AI hates the non emotion AI
The colony has turned into a religious cult… and it has a leader
Investigation will reveal that leader of cult was never part of original roster
Cult leader is alien
Alien corrupted the AI and made it emotional
Administrators, egghead and non emotion AI go back to mothership in orbit. Only military stay at colony on moon
But emotion AI shows up at mothership… destroys non emotion AI and screws up comslink to earth
On colony… cult turns against the military rescue team
Military end up outside of colony and use the ramp to propel into orbit… trajectory to get them to mothership
Mothership blows up while they head toward it, but shuttle is leaving… they hitch onto shuttle but it doesn’t go to cult colony and instead goes to terraformed moon Titan
The cult leader prophet is down on the planet with the emotion AI
Military stealthily follow prophet and AI as they go into the fogs on the surface
Time passes… then only two reemerge male military helping female back to the shuttle… she is injured
They take shuttle back to Hyperion colony
The cultists capture the pair of military survivors and they do a ritual kill for him
She saves him at last second and gets him into an emergency pod… which she releases and it will head back to Mars orbit and get picked up
She has to get to medbay and heal her wounds… Alien flies from Titan to Hyperion superman style
Alien only wanted to rule new planet Titan when it was ready.. had been on Earth for millennia but hated it there… wanted off
She kills the alien… and then the cultists…
But shuttle has been destroyed and there is no other way off colony… it was the emotion AI that did it (there was a shuttle on Titan that we didn’t see)
AI shuttle is in orbit around hyperion
She gets to AI shuttle… but it self-destructs
She just gets off in a pod in time and tumbles down toward Titan
She lands on Titan and is stuck… out of the fog emerges the rest of the military
They seem changed and cultist like
They go to attack her… she makes it to a facility where the emotion AI had the other shuttle
She is able to call to the hyperion colony… emotion AI answers
She is able to get a shuttle going and makes it back to earth

THE SURF
(aliens scifi)
The Surf are imperialistic alien species from Milky Way… focused on a busy area around Earth
The other species banded together and defeated the Surf
Surf survivors nomads
Surf on earth… he can’t control his appearance… attractive blue guy with Vulcan ears, etc. but clearly alien
He can blend into cosplay culture… identity culture
He can now show up among humans instead of hiding behind the sun
He has fan base… gay fanboy leading the fan club at comic cons
Gay fanboy gets jealous… stalks Surf and discovers it is an alien
Surf claims he is on earth to teach peace… jesus
Gay judas rats him out to authorities
Authorities arrest… but media someone gets in there… secret footage leaked
Public knows it is an alien
Public break into facility and capture alien
Gonzo footage of them killing him
But he resurrects
Then everyone worships him
However, the band of other aliens that beat the Surf show up to stop Surf from having influence because they are an evil species
Problem is the good aliens are ugly
Humans think the other aliens are the baddies
Humans defending the beautiful alien against the ugly ones but they have it twisted
Other Surf show up to defend their own
They pull out hearts… spit on it.. and it becomes parasite that when put back onto human turns them into zombie beast
Surf begin conquering humans and the other aliens won’t help humans
Humans beg benevolent aliens for help
Aliens help based on conditions… no more big pharma, no more alcohol, etc.

THE WHONESS
(aliens scifi)
Book series
Man on earth hates his life. Has talent in entertainment… but industry refuses to recognize him
Contemplates suicide, but then there is a cryo service to freeze yourself for a better future
He does so, and states in his contract that he wants to be awoken in one hundred years
Wakes up 100 years in future
Everyone lives in tenement blocks alone. AI friends. Blank cells with digital contact lenses for skinning design onto generic objects, etc.
Children created artificially and raised in creches and then jedi academy style communities where they have a group of adults to choose from as family
Luddite cult is living naturally outside of tech obsessed cities
Cryo company is now frauding people… claims it has time travel tech… but it is still just cryo (people can’t tell the difference)
Our guy thinks the world is ass. Wants to go to the future
Wakes up in future… city world much the same, but poorer prospects
Luddite culture has embraced tech and they have built the Bucky Balls ship to travel with constant velocity and find a new planet
Our guy is allowed to join Bucky Balls based on Huxley genes
Bucky balls is going and are guy reaps benefit of their tech… jellyfish gene that keeps you alive for thousands of years
Time passes… they find a planet that is ok… some colonize it and others move on for something better
Our guy colonizes
That colonizer group is abducted by aliens and taken to Whoness corner of Milky Way
Turns out Whoness have time-travel tech
They can send our guy back in time, but only if there is evidence
There was evidence of Nostradamus (reptilian conspiracy from whoness sending trandoshan assassin back with stealth that malfunctioned)
But our guy argues that there is evidence for George Lucas Star Wars given that Whoness galaxy is star wars… it wasn’t fiction!
Whoness agree and send our guy back
He makes friends with Lucas… gives him the star wars idea minus Whoness. Lucas perverts it and makes kikens good when they are actually awful
He finally has his dream fulfilled… but realizes he needs dark machinations to stop himself as a young guy from having success in HW
What he doesn’t realize is that his brother had mourned him going into the cryo program and considered it suicide and blamed whoever had been blacklisting him
The brother looked into it and investigated and discovered who was responsible… killed him
So our guy in the end is assassinated by his own brother who was avenging the young version of our guy
That should be three books… but then a second trilogy for the brother… who uses cryo to escape being arrested for murder
Who ends up just missing connecting up with his brother… and who lives the other path (not bucky balls, etc.) and who end up going back into cryo to pass the time that bucky balls was happening… and who is then victim on earth to the imperialistic alien takeover than nabbed the bucky ball colonizers

TOKAMAK
(aliens scifi)
There is an alien species in our galaxy… they are hi-tech… they sent scouts
Scout ship out of coms range… runs into a problem in solar system.. EMP
Alien ship crashes into Mars… millions of years ago
The alien crew is dying
Translator survives… no tech knowhow
The aliens use fusion cells as nutrition… they eat plasma
They run out of food
Only translator left
Cryogenic until contact
Then human contact a million years later
He has bacteria that kills almost all the human race
There are a small number of humans that have immunity
Human survivors gather… all are normal joes except one dude who is world leader in fusion research
The alien translator is symbiotic with the bacteria and sent it out on purpose to learn of the human race… then had the bacteria kill all but one useful guy and then kept an ideal support group for that guy
The support group has the skills and competency needed to build the tokamak
Tokamak built… alien shows up to eat
Survivor group realizes they were manipulated
Fusion researcher did have the funding before… so alien stepped in

Flashback… in Havana star gazing with telescope in Havana. Talk about life on other planets
There are stories of a sanctuary in Bermuda but that you have to pay to get in and everything overproduced is worthless now… so you need rare historical items as payment
Flashback to being a kid in Havana… he buried a time capsule with old stamps, trading cards, and a first edition book
He buried it if aliens from the stars would arrive one day
Present time… ugly kid has to go back to Havana to dig up capsule and get payment for Bermuda sanctuary
He gets back to Havana and it is empty… he gets the time capsule no problem
Flashback to Havana and why the book mattered
Present… he is ready to go back to miami, but survivor savages show up and capture him
They have reverted to Mayan cannibal cult tribe but have some whites and blacks, despite mostly latino
He is in a boat again heading to Mexico… Coba mayan ruins temple
They are doing ritual kills… pulling hearts out and eating them
There is a harem… one girl is rational minded and albino… but the others are zonked
They destroy his book… he is anguished
Flashback… being in miami getting hired as mechanic and meeting owner of auto shop’s daughter
Present… he has to break free and save the girl
Ancient relic being held up by leader… small sun stone
Battles and kills… they steal the sun stone
they escape… they get away through jungle and then he gets a motorboat working
The tribe can’t keep up
They get back to miami
He gets her to the skyscraper safely and says that they will take the sun stone to Bermuda to get them in
Flashback… he is beaten for dating autoshop owners daughter
Present… wakes and finds that the sun stone has been stolen by another in the skyscraper community
He chases after the gun who has driven up to fort Lauderdale to launch off to Bermuda
Thief is killed and ugly kid and albino girl watch from safety but then the apocalypse goons drive over the sun stone carelessly and shatter it
They leave and our pair examine the artifact
It is useless
They find the apocalypse goon hideout and ugly kid sabotages their generators and kills them
He roots around their hideout to see if there is anything of value… nothing
Our guy is angry and defeated
Goons did have a big store of weapons
They travel out to Bermuda anyway with a collection of worthless junk that they hopes will work and also armed to the teeth with weapons
They encounter ships of pirates looking to loot items of worth… ugly kid and albino girl have the weaponry to win… he supped up the engine in anticipation… fitted it with noz
They are then stopped by large military ships that patrol Bermuda…
They come aboard with black ops military
They want to see what is of value… they rummage and find nothing
Then one whispers to the leader of the unit…
They examine albino girl
They take the pair with them
They blow up the pair’s ship which serves as flotsam warning to others not to fuck around
The pair are taken to Bermuda and it would seem that they are allowed in because her albinism is considered special and unique
(apocalypse scifi)
Starts with flashback… ugly kid banana boating from cuba to miami… city comes into view
Engine on boat stalls… as a kid he knows how to fix it
Coast guard trying to stop it, but the engine up and running again and make it and they escape into the city
Cut.
Present day… apocalypse
Miami in ruins
Skyscraper with survivors is run by cops. He is protected because he is a skilled mechanic that works on their vehicles, the generators, etc.

YESTERYEAR
(apocalypse scifi)
Our guy in early 20s was in accident and in a coma. Mother taking care of him
Then apocalyptic event
Supervolcano erupted and spores from plants released to earth’s atmosphere
Plants had been buried deep in cavern system under earth’s crust
Spores spurs hyperevolution for fauna and flora creating new mega species
Animals became prehistoric sized and super armoured and defenses… they destroyed cities and human civilization
They killed most of humanity
Creatures: Behemoths, gargantua, razorbacks, ferron
Mega creatures are very difficult to kill… prize of pineal gland
Our guy wakes in hospital seven years later
His mother had been taking care of him the entire time
When he wakes, she dies
City is overgrown by megaflora
Mother knows trick to keep megafauna away – son learns
He leaves city and makes it out to a deserted town… but there is a survivor camp
Survivor camps are weird
No babies or infants. No young males. Lots of young girls who are very open sexually. Often females are nude. Sleep in groups. Sex around others and no one bothered
All the communities are like that and they all have elder known as The Aevid
Instructions for communities comes from the only tv broadcast… pro wrestling show that is evangelical
Pretense is the wrestling promotion is the barracks for the human rebellion army and the wrestlers are heroic soldiers
Leader of human rebellion is also a wrestler
Communities are told not to interact with each other and to wait out the beasts… a secret weapon is coming
Meanwhile, there are the Hunters – humans that also were hyperevolved to mega sized. They are male and female… but the females have male genitalia
The hunters kill the megafauna but not to save humanity but rather for sport
The hunters ignore the regular human survivors
Dickgirls because spores messed with DNA… dickgirls still have boobs and hips. Turned innies to outies for population control
Hunters can impregnate regular women but if male hunter then male baby, female hunter then female baby
Hunters have a community of women in their 30s… they recruit from the human survivor communities
Need older females because young females don’t menstruate until 30ish… older females have more testosterone which kicks in the menstruation
Wrestling show is taken over by messiah figure who claims that survivors must gather to make pilgrimage to Yesteryear
Yesteryear is a promised land
Then messiah and his upstarts are killed
Young women from the communities begin wandering the lands searching for Yesteryear
Our guy goes with some of the young females
They go deep into an ancient temple they find… and a megaflower releases spores on our guy
He transforms to megasize hunter
He returns to city to bury his mother now that he can kill megafauna
He stays in city and rules it with the young girls… until other hunters show up
The hunters are on their way to the wrestling HQ to take it down because now they need less brainwashed traded breeders
Our guy sends in his two girls…
Wrestling HQ doesn’t want girls… only guys. It is learned that the men are there.. gay community. Sparta and cannibal. Failure wrestlers are eaten. But now they will eat the two girls
One girl is eaten, but Randy survives
Our guy finds out and goes ballistic
Our guy tears apart the wrestling HQ
Our guy and randy part ways with hunter tribe
Our pair travel and find riverboat community… kept safe from land beasts, but now hunted by giant peacock mantis shrimp
Our guy almost dies trying to protect riverboat community from PMS. PMS carries him off to cavern under the water
Randy goes back to get hunter tribe for help
Hunter tribe arrive and defeat PMS

DAMAGE CONTROL
(dystopia scifi)
Marxist takeover… Orwellian. Media brainwash
Young people illiterate… locked into sim experience AR
If you want out of the orwell society, you have to pay black market mafia to get to Global South
Pay with money… and if you don’t have money… you pay with organs
Our guy has no money so he wants out and wants to live natural
He gives up an organ
Not doing well without the organ and needs medicine but can’t afford it
So he gives up another organ to get the meds
Then he needs to keep traveling and trades another organ
Eventually he is just a husk in a dump… dying
And cybernetic company gathers him
They grab hobos to experiment on
Cybernetic tech has failed… as has VR because human mind rejects the implants as foreign
However… our guy is such a husk that the cybernetic implants may revive him and his mind may accept the implants
So they make him a cyborg
He makes his way back through his journey and takes out everyone that had caused him to journey in the first place
The Orwell state captures him when he tries to go after them… and they discover from him what they need to make the human mind not reject VR
So when he thinks that he has escaped them and beat them… it turns out it was just that he was in their VR

ERGO
(dystopia scifi)
convicts no longer put in prison but instead wear AI suit which takes control of their body if they are about to act criminally
AI straitjacket keeps people in society working productively, in fact, the AI can take over the suit and force the convict to do the work
Society saves huge money on not running prisons anymore
Trying to get out of the suit results in being contracted to a Running Man style gladiator show called "Ergo"
Protag was framed but couldn't prove it and got put in the AI strait-jacket
Tries to escape suit but gets caught and put into the Ergo show
Ergo game zone is set up like a sports playoff bracket... competitors start on the right and left side and work their way to the center
The first zones are based on human history and have primitive weapons
1 v 1 battles in the zones
As competitors survive and move on they work deeper into the game zone circuit and the next levels have more advanced weapons (for example, first chambers are spears, then next chamber is swords, etc.)
If the competitor beats their opponent quickly they can move to the next zone and set up an ambush or traps for their next battle
At central chamber is the hi-tech weapons, including Kevlar armor, grenades, etc.
Protag started on one side with antagonist on that side too
other side were secondary characters who didn't have success moving on quickly and are still stuck in medieval zones and such even once protag and antag have made it to the center to face each other
protag beats antag and is informed by the host that he has to move through the other side of the game zone that he hadn't accessed yet, but it gets filled with armored goons
secondary characters are surrounded by the goons and have to work together to protect themselves
they find an escape
protag makes his way through to the other side but learns there is no exit and the plan is to kill him no matter what (off-camera)
protag works back to the center and meets the secondary characters who found the escape
fun part is that hi-tech weapons are being used in ancient rome or medieval, etc. environments.

They are antiestablishment
Badasses… they bet gas in races
But… megafeudal terrorist plot to shoot down plane
Plane goes down in desert controlled by rogues
Oil companies offer rogues big gas payout if they save the messiah
Rogues oil supply is low so they need to do it

But dies and everyone sees
Then syndicate use cgi to make it look like resurrection and new pro syndicate message
Meanwhile spire does same thing… with opposing message
Rogues go back to desert realizing they were right to walk away from society
But then they decide to raid syndicate capital by pretending to want to be hired by syndicate
They take out top brass but turns out they were figureheads… just AI running Syndicate

max had found that raiders had captured scientist that were working on cure
raiders don’t want cure
max was going to mind his business but raiders grabbed him anyway
feral saves max... they go and break out the scientists… feral lets them use his blood and they engineer the cure for the virus

Malthus takes the chair in his room and begins smashing it against the mirror. Eventually, he cracks the mirror and it shatters revealing that on the other side is in fact a mountain cliff. He looks down and it is hundreds of feet to drop
When he turns around the bunny is in the room with him. He dodges several knife slash attempts
The knife is knocked free but the bunny controls the wrestling fight. The bunny picks up malthus and throws him out the window.

“6 months earlier”
Secret service agents descending on a 50 storey hi-tech building in the middle of Wyoming plains.
The lead agents enter the building. They want to meet with Lamb
Lamb is a bill gates elon musk type guy who had all the AI tech developed but ended his contract with militaries.
He went out to international waters and had his android build a complex on an island. Important ppl are invited to the island
The VP was invited but never returned
People are returning… or when they return they are changed.
Brainwashing and cult is what is feared
Lamb isn’t there in person but instead his android in his penthouse office. Android has face plate that shows person at distance with back turned…. Soma/Amos style
Lamb defends his position. Claims VP has chosen to stay with him
Secret service veiled threats but they leave
Meanwhile… VP is clearly abused in prison (Army of Two Afghanistan prison)
Guards enter and haul him off to a different facility
There he is in a general population prison and makes a friend
Friend claims to have found a way out
Friend claims that the reason all this happened and that Unanimous has so much power is because the President is in cahoots with Unanimous
Malthus can’t believe it
Friend claims that if Malthus plays along because he has clout he will be released. Just has to pretend to play ball. Then he can assassinate the president
Friend provides evidence to check for
Malthus heeds the warning. Plays along and is released.
Is grilled by the secret service
Media frenzy regarding the “kidnapping”
Malthus plays it cool and is reunited with his family
He checks the clues the friend gave and it checks out. It seems the POTUS is with the terrorists
Malthus kills the President but has to escape
He dies trying
Finds himself back in the prison cell. His cell mate is POTUS but prison gangster style
Now the POTUS is making life hell for Malthus inside the prison
Eventually… it goes Agent Smith style and all the characters on the prison break are POTUS and all hostile
Malthus thinks he must be going crazy
He eventually makes his way back to the Lamb island complex and finds the interrogation room from the start
The Syndicate break through the glass and save him
He is freaking out because the Syndicate leader is POTUS looking… and turns out to be his brother.
It is the future
A dystopian like Elysium where a few ultra powerful rich humans live among androids in paradise futuristic cities. The old cities are ghetto lawless ruins
The Syndicate is a freedom fighting group (like Terminator) who are developing an EMP virus to take out the androids.
They have also been experimenting with clone technology.
The androids kidnapped Malthus to get info about the EMP virus and they tried to brainwash him so that he would kill his own brother (the leader of the rebellion)
Malthus is coming around with the help of Jules (his former girlfriend)
The Syndicate believes that Malthus can act loyal to the android city New Annapolis. He can bring the knocked out catatonic clone of his brother and gain access to the city. Then he can let the Syndicate in the city for a raid with the EMP virus
The plan works and Malthus is in. He is treated well. He is introduced to the city and meets real humans running the place (only a few dozen for a city of tens of thousands). Hunter Biden Bacchus guy has harem of little girls… insinuates that one is special because she isn’t an android
Other corruption and depravity
Malthus finds the opportunity to get the Syndicate in and they set up their EMP virus
In the frenzy and din of battle, Malthus seems to be recaptured and he is hauled off to the island complex from the contemporary era. It is deserted but still doesn’t make sense that it exists given the history he was told of how New Annapolis came to be
Malthus is confused.
He returns to the mainland and is once again treated as the VP who was kidnapped
In the history he was told it wasn’t Lamb’s work on the island that had brought about the awful future but rather the betrayal of the POTUS
And so Malthus sets up to assassinate POTUS
It turns out that everything apart from the true assassination of the POTUS had been done in a Matrix simulator and not at an island complex. Lamb is a real guy as presented to the world but was in fact AI generating a history of a man who never existed.
The AI was cordoned off and being worked on in a lab. VP knew and was invited to the lab where the AI had taken over (red queen res evil) and captured Malthus to brainwash him
The AI had Malthus assassinate POTUS to secure that the lab project would be revived and eventually be set up as a Skynet. The AI needed global access.
The AI had cleared the lab techs in such a way that it looked like a minor malfunction by the AI… although the AI used the cleared lab to bring in the VP Malthus and start into the plan.
But malthus realizes something
?Malthus wasn’t the VP but was the head of the AI defense program… his removal after assassinating POTUS would leave the program in the hands of a partner who always intended to go Skynet with it. Malthus had POTUS ear and POTUS would never have allowed the program to get Skynet access
“Doctor David Lamb?”
“The one and only”
Aesop wrote, “I can't be friends with a man who blows hot and cold with the same breath.”
As long as there are capable people stuck in poverty and, as long as there are incompetent people secured by their wealth, then America cannot be a democracy. It is time for change
President: “Riking, this nation will not tolerate violence as a means to change.
Riking: “Will they tolerate neglect as a means to maintaining order. My team does not think so.”
Someone called in a bomb threat.
These days that’s about as serious
as a clown dropping his pants.
(dystopia scifi)
Clarence Malthus is the Vice-President. He is in an interrogation room with a large mirror. He is searching for an exit. The window reveals a figure who is at a very far distance but moving toward Mathus. Eventually, the figure is in front of Malthus. The figure has a blank featureless face. The figure speaks and Malthus responds. The figure represents a hacker terrorist group known as Unanimous. Then the mirror no longer suggests that there is vast empty space on the other side where the figure is standing but it is no a lit children’s playroom. There is a child in the corner huddled back turned and scared.
“do you know who we are?”
“Unanimous”
“what of it?
“you are terrorists”
(then child revealed”
“what is this?” (malthus)
“this is terror”
Malthus comes to realize that the child is his son. panics
A door to the children’s room opens and a menacing figure in a creepy easter bunny costume enters with a knife. The costume is covered in blood. Flap at the front. Small bloody handprints on chest and shoulders of the costume
Bunny moves forward slowly.

THE LAST ALBINO
(dystopia scifi)
Zombie scifi
A disease… virus… causing infected to have craven need to get to water and be submerged… from there they die and get zombified
They can’t leave the water… but they have poisoned the water by being in it necrotised
There are queens that can leave the water temporarily… they have tentacle arms with suckers and tentacle tongues
Although apocalypse and zombies… walking around is relatively safe because the zombies are in the water
Survivors have to go up to mountain to use clean stream
But at first… gather jugs of water from Walmart etc
One survivor… albino African girl 10-13 yo
Survivor… paranoid dude with conspiracies about how the virus happened
The survivors get picked off by queens
Albino girl survives
She is a savant and super genius
Then seems to be future and civilization again
She is old woman and revered
She made androids… it wasn’t human recovery
She tried to keep them from realizing they are androids… but they did discover
They forgive her… but it is sinister because she wanted the androids in order to create new organic humans… to parent real humans without realizing they are androids
A resentful android goes out and gets the virus from the wastelands… to bring it back and infect all the real human children
The kids have to escape the androids… they find albino and she was attacked and dying… she tells them how to control the androids and take them down a level in intellect and autonomy… turn them into slaves

VISOR
(dystopia scifi)
Huxley brave new world… classes of people.
Everyone fitted with visor or contact lenses
Depending on what class you are… you see offers for your class
So in restaurant… menu is different based on your class
Shopping for clothes same thing
Even colours are muted for the lowest classes… sepia… washed out
Our guy breaks free of the visor
Starts to find his way into places he never thought to go

WINSTON
(dystopia scifi)
Scifi… megalopolis… mega city 1
No family… tenement blocks… AR/VR self-satisfaction
Al Bundy style slob
Watching full wall screen
TV is just studio audience watching him… applauding, laughing for the regular stuff he does
Canned reactions to him doing his routine
Big Brother watching you… it’s the audience… rating your behaviour
Host for the audience… asks audience what they think
Audience not happy with him… and he doesn’t care…
His rating plummets… and then Monty Python style thought police come in and haul him off
Time passes and a new person fills the unit… a yes man… someone who cares about the ratings
Eats his insects. Puts up his flags. Etc.
Meets a woman who hates him because she secretly appeases the audience by putting a fake tableau in front of the monitor… paid for that generated AI feed
She lives more naturally
He discovers but doesn’t rat her out. He wants to learn how to live like that
Eventually he rats her out to get a promotion to a higher grade audience that approves other behaviours that are less oppressive
But then guilt so he tries to save her
He gets her and they escape together to a natural world

GAUGE
(virtual reality scifi)
Half Arab POTUS is up against a situation where Iran created nukes and then sold to jihadists based in South America… cuban missile crisis anxiety
POTUS negotiates with jihadis… give them money for their nukes and assurances they don’t buy more
Radical isolationist republican splinter can’t accept those terms
Assassination attempt on POTUS
POTUS gets bullet through front of the brain
Become deviant – Phineas gage
Makes address pledging himself to jihadi cause
Then falls into a coma
If POTUS isn’t back then jihadis will launch nuke
Researchers can do The Cell style entering the mind of a comatose person
Researchers go in to POTUS brain… but POTUS world is hostile and surreal
Researchers need support from trained killers
Go back in
POTUS is in his own statue in a jungle… he has invented the world that came about when he support the jihadis
POTUS is having a great time as a hero and icon
The researcher and killer have to convince him that he fucked up
Doesn’t work
New plan… researcher thinks he can take over POTUS mind and wake POTUS body and use it
But they need to stay linked… so they could do online address to jihadis but can’t meet in person

LOTTO
(virtual reality scifi)
Guy at bar… commercial comes on for new lottery
VR experience… a one month vacay at the luxury complex and first to try VR experience (Matrix)
Luddite at bar talking to our guy in passing
Our guy buys the lotto ticket and he wins
5 star spa complex
Other lotto winners too
He will be trained by technicians on how to use the VR simulator
Shrinks to help not become dissociative
Military let VR go to public use because they need the research because soldier mindset not adapting well to VR… so military want regular people to unravel ways to avoid dissociation
In VR if you are submerged in water it disconnects
He tries VR… super hero sim, etc.
Our guy is approached by luddite zealot while he is at the spa
He claims that people are trapped and need to be saved… that the spa is the VR sim and that they are soldiers in the basement of a blacksite being forced to be in the VR
Now our guy is spooked
He doesn’t want to go back into the VR
Eventually he confesses that he spoke with the luddite
The staff claim that they know the person and that this man had been part of the program before the lotto… specially selected, but had gone insane. They theorize that he must have gotten keys to get in
They search for him
Our guy is more willing to get back into the VR
He goes back in… superhero sim… battling super villain… but during the course of the fantasy experience, he causes the death of some innocent citizens
The authorities show up and arrest him
Our guy is completely confused
He is put on trial… convicted… imprisoned
He can’t submerge himself in water
Luddite is prisoner as well
Our guy needs help from luddite
Luddite acts ignorant and claims to be a lifer
Later luddite admits “they were listening”
Luddite helps get the power suppressor collar off… and our guy has powers back… can escape
Now our guy submerges and out of VR
Back in spa centre complex
Luddite explains what our guy has to do to get out of that world sim and wake up as a soldier in the military black site basement
Luddite claims he is a hacker in the military black site, using tech to remotely connect
Luddite claims that our guy has to go back into the VR and reroute out to a different location
When he goes back in… the VR sim is horror based and he has to survive it… but he gets out
And when he submerges and is out again… the spa complex isn’t the same.. instead it is a private residence
Supposedly it is his residence because it is claimed he is the creator and inventor of the VR tech
Submerging does nothing
Military kidnap him… and take him to blacksite… he is told that he isn’t allowed to back away from the project and the contract with the military
The military claim that their soldiers are still stuck in the VR worlds and that any forcible removal lobotomizes them. The military is demanding that he fix it. That he has to go into the VR and sort it out
He goes into the VR and it is a very comfortable setting. Our guy decides to stay put in that VR because it is nice
Years go by… and then luddite is back stalking him
Luddite captures him and forces him to submerge
Our guy wakes back in prison but no super power collar
Luddite there in a different role as warden… that he is a prisoner for real and that prisoners are now put in VR prison sims to save money and space. He is under house arrest like all prisoners… but he needs to wake up and maintain his real body or he will waste away
He has gotten inside his own head while connected to the VR and this is why there is cascading failure
Warden explains what he has to do to get out of the VR
He does that
He finds he is under house arrest… he sees the setup
Prison guard has come onto the loud speaker to tell him he has to go back into the VR
He refuses
Prison guard lays out threats
He refuses
He sees the bathtub in his apartment unit
He drowns himself and dies
He wakes to find that he was the patient of a psychiatrist who had created the program to get him over his fear of drowning… a fear he had had since he was a child
It seems that in his normal real life… VR sets are popular and widely distributed to the public… otherwise the world is as normal as he remembers and his life is the same as when he was in the bar at the start
He decides to use a VR set again
He chooses a program but ends up as the creator/inventor of the technology again
Military show up again… but don’t take him hostage… everyone is cool with him and the work he has done
He realizes that as the creator/inventor of the tech he can destroy all his prototypes and research
The military general realizes as the plan proceeds
Once all the tech is destroyed… he is pursued by the military
He ends up back at his place near the beach… he runs down to the ocean… he walks into the ocean and the military are still in hot pursuit… we don’t know if he will drown or just wake up
