Sure enough, the writing bug bites when I have three assignments due next week.
So I whipped off a few bits this evening. Posting a few of the high points to see what people think.
-----------------
"All officers, possible wild boomer advisory in the Shinjuku area.
Subject is described as wearing a Sailor fuku and impersonating an anime
character. Approach and apprehend with caution. Boomer may be armed."
Lisa rolled her eyes and snorted. :I doubt there's a law on the books
anywhere about impersonating an anime character,: she thought to
herself, the grin tugging itself back onto her face. She looked off to
the east where she could see the lights of several Firebees heading in
her direction.
"Oh well, I had a feeling this would happen eventually." She shrugged
and leapt up onto a nearby rooftop. "Okay. Gotta escape and evade, just
like Kate-san said."
and...
Across the city, an elegant woman stood at a heavily armored window
showing the Megatokyo skyline. The huge theater-quality screen filled
the main office area as Jenny continued to work quietly off to the side,
sparing only the occasional glance at her boss. The display was full of
images relating to the mysterious girl in the sailor fuku who'd taken
the Shinjuku area by storm. The tagline, "Human or Boomer?" could be
seen across the bottom of the screen, which was filled with a grainy
security camera video of a girl landing on a boomer, firing some kind of
kinetic weapon into the rogue machine, and vaulting over the skyline.
Katherine Madigan watched the moonlight play across the cityscape and
the waterline with a small smile on her face. "And so it begins," she
whispered softly, turning away to vanish deep into the shadows.
Opinions?

Those who fear the darkness have never seen what the light can do.
