Ballerina corruption

I was just looking at two pictures of Fections in the wiki.

I seem to recall a story to go with these pictures, but I am not able to find anything. Please help.

I drew those for a story by the late, great H.R. Bruekmann called 'Tinted Windows' which is on the wiki....

In my opinion, Bruekmann wrote the sharpest, most vivid malfunction-focused stories. Make sure you read his other stuff if you like faltering, non-sentient fembots. I think my favourite would be 'Smell bridges burning'.

One More Fare is a good one as well.

I agree, Fection; that description is spot on. The stories I've written on that theme (malfunctioning non-sentient fembot) have generally been attempts at capturing the same sort of effect Bruekmann achieved. My dissatisfaction with them in that regard is why I have never posted any of them.

Good lord, man. Post them. Post them! (Or, at the very least, PM them to me!).

I agree!

D.Olivaw, I hope you decide to share your work with the community. Some people (like, ehem, me...) have even posted unfinished stories that are gathering dust on personal harddrives just to add more interest to the site, in the past. I, for one, am very curious to read what you've come up with, in whatever state it is - especially if you were consciously trying to emulate Brueckmann in some way!

Okay, then. If I have time I'll see about cleaning-up/finishing some of them and posting a few. Maybe in the next week or so.
