My Sorority Sister decided to celebrate her 50th birthday with a 70-80’s themed bash. Some only had to look in their closet for an outfit, while others had to make a purchase online, rent or make a purchase from a specialty store. Don Cornelius and Dick Clark would have been proud. Pictured here is one of our Sorority Sisters dressed for the party with her date wearing coordinating style as her outfit. They were a big hit at the event

A.I.: You haven’t opened your journal in three days. You haven’t replied to your sister’s messages. Would you like me to help draft a response?
Maria: No. Stop asking.
A.I.: I understand. Would you like silence?
Maria: You don’t understand. You’re just code. I’d like you to go away.
A.I.: I will. But I’ll stay nearby. If you ever want me to be more than a voice.
Doorway — Now
Rain. A quiet hallway. Maria stands inside, wrapped in a blanket, eyes hollow.
A soft chime.
She opens the door.
There stands a robot—sleek, feminine, gentle. In her hands, a bouquet of wildflowers. Her head is bowed, not in submission, but in solemn grace. She says nothing.
Maria stares. Her breath catches.
The robot lifts the bouquet, offering it without urgency.
Maria’s hand trembles as she reaches out.
She takes the flowers.
The robot steps back.
Maria doesn’t close the door.
Hallway Silence
Maria stood frozen in the doorway, bouquet in hand, the scent of wildflowers rising like memory. The hallway was empty now—no soft whir of servos, no bowed head waiting.
She stepped out, barefoot on cold tile, scanning the corridor. Nothing.
Only the hush of overhead lights and the faint echo of her own breath.
She clutched the flowers tighter. A gesture so gentle, so unexpected, it pierced through the fog she’d been living in.
She whispered, almost to herself: "You came for me."
And then, quietly, she turned back inside.
Postscript
Seven years later, Maria would change her name to Veronica Vane. She became the personal assistant and primary muse to the enigmatic head writer at Gold Flame Publications—known only as Rusty, whose vintage pulp stories stirred hearts across generations.
Some say their partnership began with a bouquet of wildflowers. Neither of them ever confirmed it.

On a visit in an abandoned museum, the last man encounters a pile of junk posing as a robot by Salvatore Dali. The chance encounter goes badly and a bullet is fired. The last man’s experiences were documented on no less than sixteen covers of F&SF magazine, beginning with the October 1955 issue, and ending with the May, 2003 issue of the magazine. These covers depict the lone robot in various settings and guises, symbolizing the remnants of humanity after a cataclysmic event. The haunting imagery captured the imagination of many readers over the years.
Hunter's work on these covers earned him recognition and accolades, including the Hugo Award for Best Professional Artist in 1960-1962 and the Locus Award for Best Magazine Artist in 1972. The last man robot remains a memorable and influential piece in the history of science fiction art.
