She came to her senses and realized they left quite some time ago. She probably stared down at the ground the whole time they walked."; Computer: "I asked - are you wandering your mind?"; Fara: "I think I am, sorry..."; Fara straightens up, her neck cracks; Closeup of on of computer's lenses; Computer: "Interesting..."

Stairs and wooden floor; "The 'movie' was actually a camcorder recording with no narration. The person behind the camera records the interior of a building. They first go upstairs, past the balcony on the half-floor, and make it to the first floor where they pan right."; "There are a few steps that lead to the door not quite at the second floor, but still elevated above the first."; "They come closer and go up; the rather short door is missing a handle."; "A hand enters the frame; it holds a door handle which it inserts into a square hole in the door and opens it."; "The room is filled with boxes and dust. They put the camera down on a table right to the door they came in. It's pointing at the wall, and when they pick it up again, they stand on the table."; "There's a second door in the room: near the ceiling, above the table."

"Sometimes, Fara woke up to a fleeting moment where she remembered the whole different world. A world that was so substantial to her a while ago, yet of no consequence now, and any memory of which will be lost in a wink. Every now and then she wondered if the world she's in and everything so important to her would be equally voided if she were to 'wake up'."; a door handle; "Can anything be serious to a mind that so easily dismantles whole universes?"; "She opened the door and suddenly felt as if she forgot about something."; Fara standing next to open doors, utility poles in the distance; Fara: "Anyway, where's Zalma?

A Pixel Art featuring Anubi, stuck between 2 choices life has given her. The left side says "Go to the bathroom before sleeping", represented by a dark forest in the dark, where it's currently raining very harshly with some thunder hitting it, where a fire can be seen in the middle of it. The right side says "Develop kidney stones", and it's represented by fields full of flowers with a big, shiny sun and no clouds in sight. Anubi is looking towards this side.

"In a sense, she achieved the exact opposite of her initial intention. Instead of gaining control over her dream, she started to lose control over her own reality. She started forgetting moments of waking up. Her consciousness felt continuous as if she never slept. She could hardly tell if anything she experienced happened today, a week ago, or not at all."; a bed; "She casually entered the door to a different world, except there was nothing that marked the door frame."; an open laptop; "Eventually, it all got back to normal, and the whole thing lost its gravity."; hand closing the laptop; "Like a dream you are no longer a part of."

"Like a radio skimming through frequencies, she kept picking up ostensibly unrelated and noisy streams of thoughts. Suddenly a clear waveform emerged from the chaos and she recalled her childhood obsession with lucid dreaming."; A pc, monitor, mouse and keyboard; "She used to read about it online a lot."; web browser; "Before the war, the Internet allowed accessing almost all human knowledge and more media than one would be able to consume in a hundred lifetimes."; a right hand; "She learned to compulsively count her fingers. Apparently our imagination is quite bad at details, and the easiest way to distinguish dream from reality is to spot such inaccuracies. She started to remember every single dream she had. This is not a natural state of mind. You are programmed to get rid of any memories of dreams as soon as you wake up - and for a good reason. With time passing, Fara's dreams became increasingly more vivid. She could recall so many details that sometimes, she felt as if she had a more complete view of the dream than the real world. Soon this division started to blend, and she found it hard to tell the difference."

She could imagine music in her head without putting on headphones, but she realized they give her some free time from the computer. She didn't tell it the player was broken or that she doesn't have a single cassette anyway, but she also didn't even bother to plug the headphones to the player anymore."; Computer looking at an unplugged jack; "She wondered if it knew"; "She started listening to the music in her head. She could still recall quite many tunes, which completely contradicted what she felt about the state of her memory. She wondered about generation loss of the music in her head. Do these sound any like the original after playing them so many times? Deep down Fara knew she will probably never get the answer. Pre-war music was almost all lost. She randomly remembered some lyrics..."; "I'm just nineteen and how serious can anything be anyway? Not very."; "She wasn't nineteen anymore and wondered if it matters."

a girl standing in front of a cliff; "She kept running for what seemed like eons until she reached an edge of a cliff. For a second in complete panic, she hesitated whether to stop or not, finally realizing she's alone. She was safe. Her whole body hurt. Her legs shook so hard that she didn't even realize when she fell on her knees."; terrified face; "She cried silently as her throat felt as if it grew needles. For a moment she wondered if she lost her voice, and whether it isn't for the better. The existence of the cliff brought her comfort. Through her teary eyes, she gazed down and made a promise to herself. No matter what happens - she thought - there's always the cliff."

Sometimes I want to use a more advanced drawing program, like #gimp or clip studio paint. But I think my art would lose something. Oekaki just suits my art, maybe that's my lack of skill or knowledge of other programs, but it just works okay and I'm happy for now. I do get frustrated with it, lack of resizable canvas, not being able to zoom properly or export, no layers. But that's okay right now.

She looked at the computer which saves the world it sees through its two 8K sensors, not as an interpretation but a perfect stereoscopic carbon copy.

Hoe in the grass; "One of her oldest recollections was playing in a garden after the rain. She noticed a hoe lying in the tall, wet grass, and with a childish curiosity, decided to pick it up."; Weird snails with antennas and many eyes, sitting on the hoe; "An involountary frown appeared on her face as she felt the echoes of a distant memory; the terror when she realized the shaft of the hoe was full of odd creatures in colors one can't describe. In perfect synchronization, they tuned their antennasm and for a moment, she felt the weight of a thousand eyeballs staring at her."
