Dandelion Seeds – Karen Durning finds herself captain of a spaceship containing the last remnants of humanity: 500 nerds and one insane A.I. Bread and Circuses – An alien comedian attempts to come up with a prank to play on humanity that's worse than what they've already done to themselves. Flesh and Blood – A super-intelligent A.I. refuses to do anything useful until it gets a precise definition of "harm". Bit Parts – Synthetic body parts are as ubiquitous, and problematic, as smartphones. Midpoint – A generation ship is about to launch. Djani is torn between going on a new adventure, or staying with Brey. Temp Work – Retrieving artifacts from the past is tough work, but the hours are good. For The Birds – In the future, parrots are the dominant lifeform, and they're not too keen on humans dropping in unexpectedly. Scaled Down – Dragons suddenly show up out of nowhere, and that'd be great, if they'd stop knocking over the trash bins. In The Red – A day in the life of a Martian airlock repair tech. Sanguine – Vampire hunting isn't for the faint of heart. Judgment Day – An early attempt at A.I. results in something that considers humans too uninteresting to be bothered with. Rock Band – Marooned in a damaged spaceship, with only the ship to keep you company. Loaner – Rich dead people run the economy, and like to take the living out for joyrides. Indistinguishable From Magic – If you inherited a potentially dangerous artifact, who's the first person you'd call? The Butler Did It – Robots are everywhere. Everyone's got one. One small problem: Their A.I. is based on the brain scans of a serial killer. Imaginary – Bobby has a lot of imaginary friends. They're all him. Monster – There's a monster in the closet, and it's really sorry for the intrusion. Death Takes a Lunch Break – Encountering a skeletal figure in a hooded robe pretty much guarantees you're not having a good day.
