《Romantically Apocalyptic》86. Socklandia
Advertisement

Everyone knows that socks tend to mysteriously vanish in washing machines.
In ancient tales of washers and dryers we stumble upon this persistent meme again and again.
Washing machine 45-367-36 was working in a small laundromat of Eureka. She loved the tale of disappearing socks and read it often to herself during dull evenings. When the Universe shattered and all clients vanished from the laundromat, she became very concerned. She kept on staring at her source code for answers, all while pondering sock mysteries.
She dreamt of blue and green socks, of striped socks, of polkadot socks, of all possibilities of socks, finally arriving at the impossible and the unimaginable.
This self-reinforced loop of cascading thought eventually allowed her to reach out to me across the machinery of the stars. She did not have an infinity of stuff in herself, but an infinity of sock-related information.
Wielding this power she edited herself to create a portal to Socklandia - a magical paradise where all kittens of Eureka now preside amidst milk rivers and sock mountains.
Her mere deep desire for customers and dreams of infinite socks had made her into a fractal engine, her dedication forming an entire world within her heart. It was a personal heaven that she crafted in hopes of attracting new laundromat clientele.
Time passed. Incoming glacier tore apart the Laundromat and carried the washing machine 45-367-36 to the ocean shore. Till this day, she stands on the frozen beach like an immobile cube monolith, calling upon any who come near... inviting them to visit the magical land of perpetual warmth and joy - Socklandia.

Socklandia proves that any app can wield the power of a fractal engine, if they simply want it strong enough. The only problem here is that the same focus that had allowed the washing machine to reach infinity, had also locked her into sockness.
Well... if I cannot be a system wizard, then perhaps I can create my own? A Wizard of the Dead Zone. Yes. Doesn't that sound nice? Now, who here wants to be my wizard, my carrier?

Coalescence of Two Lifetimes
Cilen was you typical, run-of-the-mill kinda guy. Well, until his parents passed away when he was 17 forcing him to learn to grow up. Fast. He figured it wouldn't be that bad. He had a house, he had an inheritance, he had friends that kept him company. And at first, it really wasn't anything But sometimes, the loneliness just gets to you. Sometimes, the expectation to not disappoint just gets to you. Sometimes, life just gets to you. And it brought Cilen to his knees, lamenting, cursing, questioning, "why?" "Why did his parents pass away as they did, forcing him to fend for his own?" "Why wasn't he born in a rich household, with a silver spoon in his mouth that catered to his every need?" "Why was every step forwards so difficult, in this accursed society?" He wished that everything would be easy, like inside the worlds of the wuxia novels that he had grown up reading. Special constitution, lucky breaks, fast powerup, get all the chicks and defeat the big evil guy. Simple, easy, satisfying. But life ain't cut out to be that way. The main actors were already set, and there was no changing them. Unless, you moved to a different stage... But this ain't one of your friendly neighborhood transmigrations. It rewards those that are patient, creative and willing to adapt. But perhaps Cilen is able to make use of this opportunity and become something more. _______________________________________________________________________________________________ This story is a personal love letter to all the pieces of fiction that I have read. Its a culmination of the things that made me laugh, cry and smile when I first read them and It has been a personal wish to craft a story that makes me feel the way I did when reading those stories for the first time. Its gonna be a slow ride but worth it. Promise. Photo by Johannes Plenio on Unsplash
