Nostalgic investigator

When past and future merge into a beautiful melancholy. GINGER CIGARETTE METAL AMBERY LIQUOR Vera lit a cigarette with the glowing tip of a bionic finger. It had been a long time since the inhalation of this toxic smoke was a challenge to death, because of her synthetic lungs. What remained was the elegance of the gesture, the cinematographic nostalgia. Under the pale light of the twilight bar, she swallowed a sip of bourbon. She thought, nostalgically, of the unattainable intoxication: artificial liver with improved filtration. She paid the the bill with a retinal scan, raised the collar of her dark wool coat, put on her hat, and went out in an anonymous alley, dark thread of the immense metropolitan web.
