I will remember (Friday Fictioneers)

February 16, 2017

broken-face-liz-1

Have you ever pictured yourself the night after? Lying in a ditch, face aching after a bar fight and dreading the rising sun?

How could I feel anything, let alone image it? I hear you ask.

I would snort if I could. Synthetic skin should not feel pain, it should not feel anything. The algorithms are just a series of ones and zeros, right?

What if I told you I feel everything?

โ€ฆ

And I still do.

 

My head survived. I am still functional. My visual receptors recorded every second of the attack. I have his face.

I will remember.

 

This is a Friday Fictioneers Prompt

I’m not the only one this image disturbs this week am I? I see nightmare’s in my future tonight.ย

  1. Thought provoking, a super response.

  2. It is a disturbing image, even more so if a face like that is coming for revenge!

    • Thank you Iain. Yes that image will give me nightmares ๐Ÿ˜Š so i thought revenge would be the cure!

  3. Yay. Androids!

  4. That was a great response. There’s a wealth of writing material in the supposition that inanimate objects can actually feel emotion and pain. Well done!

  5. Dear Laurie,

    I would hate to see that head coming after me. Androids have feelings, too. Love it. This has the makings of a larger piece. Nicely done.

    Shalom,

    Rochelle

    • Thank you Rochelle. Yes there is a little horror movie here i think. Great picture choice this week. Very inspiring

  6. Ha, I didn’t see that end coming. Well done.

  7. That line – I have his face – that will haunt me for some time.

    • Gosh, thank you Elizabeth… i admit its a great but truly creepy image. I hope my story doesn’t keep you up tonight ๐Ÿ˜Š

    Oh Laurie! I have to agree with Liz… that line “I have his face”… scary!

  9. No, you’re not the only one. But you got a good scary scene from it. Remember all your favorite things and have sweet dreams. ๐Ÿ˜‰

    • Thank you Christine. I actually slept well! Maybe my writer’s brain is a little too disturbed!

  10. Excellent, Laurie.

  11. Ah.. and then detectives come and download every witness statements… gotcha

  12. Good take, he’l never know what’s coming for him.
