The 12 loops of Goodbye

  The Twelve Loops of Goodbye The fluid rises. The cryo-hiss is deafening. And then... the program starts. Twelve times. The system cycles, and twelve times I see you. It starts the same. The image freezes in the dark. It’s you, BK. Or... It’s your idea. You’re wearing the rig. The goggles are locked on me. I try to say your name, but my mouth is filled with ice. I love you. God, I love you. But you don’t blink. The Neural Glitch. Something is wrong. The memory corrupts. I see "corrupted code" trying to stabilise across your face. Your eyes... behind the lenses... they twitch. Microscopically. Are you hurting? Or is that my pain rippling through the connection? A low-frequency pulse warps your skin. You look like a stranger. You look like the machine. The Shuddering Breath. This is the one that breaks me. Total stillness. Then... a faint mist forms at your mouth. Condensation beads on the goggles.

We are going in

(Verse 1)
Our energy, it's draining, draining low. Our reserves, dwindling, dwindling.
Faces glow, a strained, weary show. So weary.
A crisis, a crisis at hand. The Primary Trade Lane, gripped. So tightly gripped.
Delta-Nine, a nightmare. It's about to make us slip. Just slip.

(Chorus)
But then, a presence. A presence.
A hospitality's call, on the fringe. The very fringe of uncharted space. Before we fall. We fall.
The anomaly. A desperate hope. In the night.
Their whole mission, hanging. Hanging in the dim, fading light. So dim.

(Bridge)
Yeah, we're going in. Going in.
With a whisper. And a plea.
Into the unknown. The unknown. For all the world to see. To see.
The ozone, thin. So thin. Despair in the air. Just despair.
But something. Something is out there. Beyond compare. Beyond.

(Chorus)
The anomaly. A desperate hope. In the night.
Their whole mission, hanging. Hanging in the dim, fading light. So dim.
We're going in. Going in.
With a whisper. And a plea.
Into the unknown. The unknown. For all the world to see. To see.
