I ARTED! :D

Well, I found an art I drew like five years ago and somehow managed to keep with me in hardcopy through the intervening kajillion cross-country moves. I ran across it last week while I was moving and went "...holy f*** it's Aaron." So I colored it and asked Kat's permission to post. ^_^

Story: An Army of One
Colors: Vellum #16 "Recension"
Styles/Supplies: None
Word Count: 1,340

Story: Tripping into the Future
Colors: Vellum #3 "Edition"
Styles/Supplies: None
Word Count: 309
Rating/Warnings: PG-13; no standard warnings apply
Summary: An alien planet offers a refuge, but raises mixed feelings.
Note: Tripping into the Future begins with weaponized time travel. The series is narrated in second person, and the narrator is the one who fired the weapon on an enemy fleet, dragging everyone so far into the future that none of the stars and planets are even the same. It has kind of an apocalyptic flavor as a result, although there are bright spots too.

I need a story tag for Tripping into the Future, please.
