Pseudopod 202: Eye Spy
Eye Spy
By K. A. Dean
Sit down with the usual gut warp strength black coffee – only thing that’s going to keep my eyes open all night really- and settle down to watch. I can’t help smiling at it all, all those individual juddering images spread out in front of me, like an artificial compact eye watching the city. A hundred small screens surrounding the single, higher resolution monitor, all for me. So much information fed right back to me in my warm, dark skull of a control room.
I can’t help but enjoy it. Too much to pour over. So many minute human dramas played out over the night shift as though just for me, all of them oblivious. All so used now to the all seeing eye, that ever present observer above that hums and tracks them, benevolent and protective. Never look up, never acknowledge, but I don’t mind. It’s more interesting when they forget they’re being watched.

If we’re both going crazy, then we’ll go crazy together, right? Mistakes have been made. Um, I’m happy you’re home. Don’t take it so personally, okay? I don’t like most people. He’s in the vast majority. You act like you want me to be your friend and then you treat me like garbage.
