1/Light
The new bionic eyes were able to translate light waves into AI made alt text. However, the users often preferred the synesthetic options. They then could hear a song, feel a tactile sensation or even taste what they couldn't see.
2/Heat
— So, you tell me they use heat pumps to accumulate and supply energy for their heat pumps! What's the point?
— It makes their home cooler. Unlike our species, they can't stand normal temperatures.
3/ Equator
— With these glasses, I can see unreal things.
— Like ghosts?
— No, like the imaginary lines created by humans : frontiers, time zones, tropics, equator...
— OK. But, what's the use?
— It helps me not to forget it's only a model. #witever
4/ Ray
Inspired by old Science fiction books, the transportation company dreamt of using huge manta rays to haul cruise boats.
But very few manta rays are left in the dying oceans and they avoid human beings as much as possible. #writever
5/Apollo
While the world is preparing for the first inhabited flight for Mars, Apollo 42 expedition is about to start.
Apollo 42 is a private crowdfunded program aiming to promote peace and establish an international moon village.
6/Ocean
This planet named Ocean by its discoverers was covered by the sea, except for one tiny island.
As the atmosphere was similar to earth, they decided to build a floating camp, neglecting to check what was living in the deep. #writever
7/Star
Being an intergalactic star can have devastating impacts on your health.
Unless you have a really efficient hologram team, you'll have to travel and, therefore, accept to lose years of life at each hyperspacial jump. #writever
8/Cicada
When the aliens arrived, the humans called them Cicada, because they looked like huge crickets and spent their time singing.
Sometimes they visited places, but mainly seemed to have fun.
In fact, they were just hard working Duantrus having a holiday. #writever
9/Photon
Love at first sight was described by the nuclear physicians as a regular electromagnetic phenomenon in which the two involved persons exchange some protons.
This discovery opened a new research field. #writever
10/Copernic
They named the robots after great people from the past and encouraged them to copy their inspirers.
My mom's robot, called Copernic, not only was fascinated by space, but also wanted to comment on laws and medicine actuality. #Writever
11/Infrared
While measuring thermic variations in rooms, with infrared devices, they observed great differences in evapotranspiration between people.
Some seemed much more efficient, then they decided to study their bodies.
I think their mind is a better hypothesis. #writever
12/Waves
Someone eventually analyzed the frequency variations of sea waves. They then realized there was a message. A unique message for all sea shores : Stop killing us.
How long has the sea been trying to talk to us? #Writever
13/Milky way
Mars Incorporated was a company known for their chocolate bars, like Milkyway. But their candy department was just a way to earn money for a bigger challenge : make better space food for the astronauts. #writever
14/Storm
You know what happened to our new manager?
He wanted to brainstorm with the team. I suppose he's from a traditional company.
He came with colorful sticky notes.
Then Jane started the brainstorming machine. He stood 2 minutes then he fainted. #writever
15/Island
Survival Island was a touristic destination for survivalists and holiday adventurers.
There were 32 of them in the different workshops when the sea level suddenly rose.
None survived.
16/ Helios
With the global warming, a number of spiritual movements rose from nowhere.
Many claim the necessity for the humans to become back part of the nature, but some, like Helios just worship the sun, taking risks with their health. #writever
17/Corona
We thought that each starship entering the solar corona was immediately burnt, atomized.
The explorers discovered they were, in fact absorbed into the copper core of the star, then unable to communicate with the outside. #writever
18/Temple
The alien emissary rubbed his temples and said : I can see that what you're telling me is the opposite of what you really think. Is it common for your species?
That's how we discovered their telepathic skills. #writever
19/Tan
—They know that getting tanned with medical monitoring is the best way to resist the sunray burnings. So, what's wrong with those people?
— They don't want to die, but they don't want to be black either. #writever
20/Ultraviolet
As the common ultraviolet lamps had been forbidden, she bought UV sanitizing devices to replace them and keep tanning.
Not only hadn't she got tanned, but she burnt a large portion of her skin. #writever
21/ White Dwarf
The neoastrologists barely use the star signs, knowing their positions are no longer relevant.
They address your emotions, saying that anger is a Red Giant which has to find peace and become a White Dwarf.
I suppose this helps people. #writever
22/ Telescope
The system prohibited telescopes, arguing that it was noxious to focus on faraway object and forget nearer interests.
In fact, they were afraid of people dreaming, as usual, knowing that imagination is the worst enemy of dictators. #writever
23/gravitation
It's now possible to spend an hour or two in a low gravitation room. This treatment aims to produce disorientation, to blur the perceptions and to ease individual change process. #writever
24/Climate
This company offers settings with images and music to render the chosen climate for your remote family meetings.
We have picked "mild nervous tension" so that everyone could be as comfortable as usual. #writever
25/Astronomical
We paid an astronomical price for her to get into the spaceship with the billionaire.
Her mission was to try and kill the man, but she was captivated by the sight, then forgot everything.
Should we try again? #writever
26/King
— Take me to your leader, the Earthling said, talking into the translation device.
As no creature reacted, he tried other words.
— Your chief, your king...
They laughed.
The Buxglez were all connected together, and equally able to talk to the visitors. #writever
27/Orbit
When the satellite village got their own church, the pope changed his ritual bénédiction.
For Christmas and Holy week worship, he pronounced the Urbi et Orbit. #writever
28/Magnetic fields
The starship landed near the strange blue field which they had noticed from the sky.
They got down, wearing their space suite and were irresistibly attracted towards the blue.
This field was kind of a trap, in fact : a magnetic field. #writever
29/Day
Under our protective screen, we never know whether it's night or day, even though they keep alternating light and darkness.
Some say they've extended the duration of our days so that we could work more.
I don't know. They are also the ones who provide watches. #writever
30/Stardust
Knowing that man is just stardust make us more humble, of course.
But it doesn't help us to be believe in humanity capabilities. #writever
31/Night
— The best time to spy on people is by night.
— But they usually sleep, don't they?
— Precisely ! They sleep and they dream. We can read dreams and will soon be able to watch them without erasing anything.
«Soleil de juillet donne la fortune», dit-on.
Laissons-nous éblouir et inspirer par la liste de l'été.

1/Lumière
Quand le Smic horaire, c'est-à-dire, le salaire minimum pour s'offrir loyer et électricité, prit pour nom «Heure-Lumière», seuls les plus anciens se souvenaient, nostalgiques, du temps où l'espace et ses mystères faisaient l'objet d'une science officielle. #writever
2/ Chaleur
Zoé ouvrit précautionneusement la fenêtre, sortit la plaque, s'apergea d'eau fraîche, puis cassa les œufs. Elle salua le voisin qui préparait son bacon de la même façon et se souvint de l'époque où il fallait produire de la chaleur pour cuire les aliments. #writever

1/Walking
We understand how fascinating it can be, one foot after the other, but we won't pay for that experience.
The richer we are, the less we walk. Who needs another walking robot?
I love the end of the school year, just because of the Bal.
You can dress as grandiose as you want, be who you will, yourself or anyone else.
Our robotic and cyborg friends always try to look more human, while we tend to be really eccentric.

1/Marche
Le nombre a toujours été notre supériorité. Mais il fallait démonter les discours, surmonter nos peurs.
Alors, tous les laissés-pour-compte sont sortis. SDF, psychiatrisés, migrants, chômeurs, pour la Marche des invisibles.
Après ça, le monde a changé. #writever
2/Bal
— «studio 3m2 au sol, triple mezzanine, avec lavabo et Bal»... Ça a l'air cool, mais c'est quoi «Bal»? Y a une salle des fêtes dans l'immeuble?
— C'est la boîte aux lettres. Il n'y a plus de courrier, mais ça fait un petit volume de rangement supplémentaire. #writever
📝Un immense merci à @NicoMartinFC qui a pris du peu de temps que lui laissent ses vies multiples pour concocter un voyage guidé #writever dans les coulisses de la Maison de la Radio.
Sa liste constituait une trame déjà narrative et @NicoMartinFC nous a même accompagnés une bonne partie du mois !
🏆Bravo à tous les participants, ceux d'un jour, ceux de toujours, les fidèles et les volages, les neufs sous blister et les anciens patinés!

1/Countdown
He wiped the name on the placard, wrote "Last Days Saints" and moved the hands of the giant clock on his chest.
Then he started to ring his bell, shouting :
"Listen ! The countdown to the end of the world has just begun!"
Our best product is group pictures. As it's been forbidden to gather more than three persons in the same place to avoid spreading the new viruses, these pictures are studio made, with green screens. People really love them.

1/Compte à rebours
On sait l'heure de l'impact, la chaîne des effets. La vie n'est plus qu'un compte à rebours.
Certains regardent approcher la météorite, d'autres s'entassent dans les dernières zones ou rejoignent leurs proches.
Moi je n'ai personne. Je fais la fête. #writever
2/Studio
Après des semaines de recherche anxieuse, Julia avait enfin trouvé un logement dans ses prix à Paris. Un studio avec salle de bain, kitchenette et mezzanine. Son dossier était accepté. Restait à réussir l'entretien avec les 3 autres colocataires. #writever
