They call it vreaming. VR plus dreaming, see? Dreaming another world while still awake. It’s the newest thing amongst the homosapien part of the community, though the natives have been using a form of it for decades. But it’s only in the past few years that kids – teenagers of both species – have been modding the VR so that it’s portable. We all wear dark ‘specs outside, goggles that allow us a full field of view, protecting our eyes from the ever-present snow glare. People like my girl and her beast friend have been working on them so that they black out the real world and display what they call the Vreaming instead. Mods to the software mean that VR city plans match those of our own town, making it possible to walk snowy streets while seeing a desert oasis. The ‘specs are linked in with our surskins, our undermost layer of head-to-toe clothing, allowing the wearer to feel the heat of the desert sun, the wind whipping around them…
