COSMIKO: Neon Night

[I2DCB - 24-07-2145 | 23:15 LT] Dreamt about him last night. Jackie. He was coughing on TV… and Mama never let me watch the games. But I could see a corner of the screen from behind the door. I was eight years old again. My head’s spinning. I’m starting to hurt again. Bad. Probably a bad time to mention I ran out of factor shots. Since I’m not getting paid, I’m basically a girl made of glass. Everyone wants to take a swing at me. And if that’s how it is… I still gotta try. Ironbird Stadium’s shaping up to be a suicide run if I don’t keep my head down. [If I Don’t Come Back: Don’t worry about me. You can have the cerveza in my apartment. Just don’t touch my locker in Cage #14. That stays there.]   COSMIKO: Neon Night is a neonpunk/cyberpunk audio fiction program straight from the underground. Dive into a cyberpunk future stitched together with neon lights, shotgun miracles, and dreamers too stubborn to quit. Bright lights. Dirt under the nails. No one lives forever. Etch your name in the steel before it's over.

[I2DCB - 24-07-2145 | 21:07 LT] Forget the bounty license. Ironbird Stadium. It’s time. I think I finally get why Luna Mare Cognitum’s been screwing me up. Joaquín. You know. Jackie. The whole city screams his name. Even when it’s quiet, it’s like an earworm scraping against my skull. That deadbeat. The only runaway dad who made more money than probably you, me, and your former boss combined. Lunar League Baseball contracts. Hah. Half the city’s damn economy. And growing up, we never saw a single centavo. I’m not even in it for what Wrench is paying me. Jackie’s not gonna escape me this time. If I can’t rise to his level, I’ll drag that parásito down to mine. Just gotta meet this dogtagged goon and get the gears rolling. [If I Don’t Come Back: Oh, I’m coming back. Hell will spit me back out for being too much to handle. Wouldn’t be the first time.]   COSMIKO: Neon Night is a neonpunk/cyberpunk audio fiction program straight from the underground.

[I2DCB - 24-07-2145 | 19:14 LT] Luna Mare Cognitum. City of dreamers and achievers, yeah? I used to call this slice of steel home. We all make mistakes. Even a punk like me. Oh, for any squares reading this, an I2DCB is a thing we do around here. “If I Don’t Come Back.” Basically, a last will and a middle finger to whoever’s listening. I’ve got it on auto-send to Zheyuan. So if you’re reading this, I guess I died on the way to the Municipal Building. What a freakin’ way to go. Flatlined on her way to a job interview. Imagine that instead of a bomb going off. Got the nerves bad, man. It’s jittery. Is this how normal people feel about work? All the suits out there, they don’t get like this… do they? Eh, screw it. Shake it off. I’m just a little smooth talk away from getting that Bounty Hunting License. Then the first thing I’m doing is paying for that premium water ration package. Bye-bye warm beer. There’s only one place to go from rock bottom. Up. Always up. [If I Don’t Come Back: Roast the hell out of me for dying like a wimp. :P]   COSMIKO: Neon Night is a neonpunk/cyberpunk audio fiction program straight from the underground.

You wanted a boom, so you’re getting a boom. Maria’s back. Broke, furious, and ready to torch her past. One last gig at Ironbird Stadium, the place her old deadbeat used to swing for the fences before he vanished. She’s here to blow it sky-high… but family matters are the least of her worries. The times are changing, and blood’s about to hit the steel in the cyberpunk city of Luna Mare Cognitum. What You Can Expect:    // Silver Tongues: Razor-sharp banter and zero mercy. Don’t act like you don’t like it.    // Twisted Conspiracies: Puppets, power plays, and payback.    // Improved Spatial Placement: Don’t just listen to the neon and steel, feel it.    /̷̟̫̐̈́̊/̶̬̦̔̋ I̶’̵m̴ ̷s̴t̶i̷l̵̺̃l̸͓̏ͅ ̴̭͍̉h̵̫̾́͜e̵̯̖͋̕r̴̢͝e̷̪̼͗.̶̖̐: Y̵̪̠̕o̶͔͂̈́u̸͙̹̅̐ ̵̛̥̦t̵͈̦̾̉h̷̖͌ó̴̻̫u̴̢̓ĝ̵͇̽h̸̻̀ț̸́̒ ̴̢̗̿̿I̶̛͉̾ ̷̻͇͗̋ẁ̵͖á̸̙͔s̴̙͚̄́ ̵̨̏d̷̢̩̆̋e̸͙̞͋a̵̹̣̓d̷͔̟͒͘,̷͔̤̑̀ ̷̥́͘y̴̨̻͝o̶̟͘u̴͓̰̾̄ ̸̟͚̔́s̵̼̟̆ì̵͈̚c̷̭͘k̶͖̤̏͆ ̴͙͈̌ș̴͘ạ̸͒̃c̷͎͊̕k̶̻͛̇ ̵̠̹̑o̵͙̜̽̎f̵̭̈́͊ ̴̯͓͂̀f̶̘̍ļ̶͓̑͝ē̴̹s̶̫̈́̑ḫ̸̤̀̅?̸̱̥̕ ̶̡̓͌T̷̗̅r̵̘͚̂y̸̳̍ ̴̳̄m̶͚͌e̵̼͎̅͛.̶̛͔ COSMIKO: Neon Night Season 03.
