7 MODERN DEADLY SINS
By S. Kay
Sloth
Ordering through an app, a robot reheats the food. A drone flies it to the condo's entrance, and rings his doorbell. He groans, getting up.
Pride
He finds a cute guy checking in at a cafe and intercepts, getting attention by spilling coffee and asking for his help. The plan works.
Wrath
Her nail polish changes colour after she dips it in her drink, so she knows it's been dosed, and switches the martini with her date's.
Envy
His new look dazzles jaded journos, but comment moderators filter extra hate. Not many 135-year-olds look that good in a micromini.
Greed
Reliant on robotics to lift her arm, she thinks nothing of slipping her credit card into a vending machine. It dispenses a soda, with fraud.
Lust
They kiss like they're devouring each other, but only one could be destroyed by lust. The other is made of plastic and circuits.
Gluttony
A #3-rated flexbot joins a new girl for the noon cam show, the Hot Lunch. A food app syncs panini deliveries with the show's end.
