    Summary

    The first planetary visit during our teaching run with ART had been mostly fine. 

    Mostly. 

    All the humans had stayed on the path. They had refrained from touching unknown flora. They had given the small fauna we had come across a wide berth. The humans had, overall, been the best behaved clients I have ever had on a planet. I was impressed.

    The one, giant, problem was Three.

    Summary

    Throughout his life, Joe Hills had always been ‘other.’ When the Hermits summarised their rag-tag group, they mentioned their hybrids first, then the humans, the eternals — many of whom could be more accurately catagorised as gods — and then, tacked onto the end, Joe Hills. He had, or rather, as the Hermits tended to put it, was his own category. It was… an interesting position to be in. To hear the Hermits ask: “Where did he come from,” “How could he do all the supposedly impossible things that made up his average Tuesday?,” “What was he, really?” Questions he had no answer for. He tried not to let it bother him. Tried to let the questions roll off him like raindrops down a mountain. Except — here was the thing: Raindrops hitting a mountain weren’t exactly inconsequential. Over decades or centuries, they made their impact. Carved their lines into the cliff faces, collecting into raging rivers at the mountain's base. Slowly chipped away at the peaks until eventually there was nothing left. Of course, this wasn’t happening to Joe! No, not at all! He was just being dramatic — breaking into prose at random was just a consequence of being a poet, as Cleo liked to say.

    Or: The Hermits get into trouble. Joe has to fix it.

    Summary

    And sometimes, Wels wondered.

    Wondered if he was the one with the problem.

    Or: after dredging up a nightmare from the deep, the Hermits find themselves under attack by their very desires. With the clock ticking and the monsters sucking the life out of his friends, it's up to Welsknight to fight off the invaders and save the day.

    He's fine. He'll be fine.

    He's just a little broken.

    That's all...

    Summary

    PUMNT suggested that the whole family be on board when Perihelion was booted up for the first time. That was a mistake the advanced MI research lab would never repeat. When the powerful newborn AI misunderstands its own systems, leading to a nearly fatal accident, the family is left wrestling with questions of love, fear, and identity. Well, Seth and Martyn are. Iris and Peri just want to be left alone with their coloring books.

    AKA the baby ART and Iris 12x100: 12 mini-scenes of 100 words each about ART's creation and first few years of existence.
