The sky was that thin pale blue. The kind that looked the way the wind felt as it screamed across the plain, biting at your skin.

Sometimes I love the little drabbles I make. Sometimes they hurt.
This time was both, and I had to record it and listen to it. My accent needs to be thicker, rougher.

In an attempt to enhance the child's exposure to her heritage, I am going to start cooking more Mexican food.
Tonight we have picadillo.

Thank you. But it's part of the journey.
A week after I submitted it I had an idea for someone to change in the story. But I didn't want to withdraw it to make the change because the submission window was tight. So I decided to wait. Now I have the chance to evolve the story.

8/1 monotheistic?
8/2 forgotten
8/3 good?
8/4 factions?
8/5 there's a God, and some sentient weather.
8/6 the Creator, and Companion
8/7 every fiber of existence, the space between, and outside of reality

I never did find it, it was a search link that bypasses the ai overview. It's still working for me. I'll poke around and see if I can remember the process enough to tell you how to do it.
