B-12's Moon Glow

On the dusty, abandoned surface of Phobos, a lone robot known as B‑12 makes his living as the outpost’s only moonshiner. Crafted by the long‑gone Builders, he’s a relic in a world where newer, crystal‑brain machines have rendered his kind obsolete, leaving thousands of metal workers idle and marginalized. When B‑12 prowls the dim back‑streets of Argon City one night, a chance encounter with a human‑like Builder and a tossed alarm clock pulls him into a tangled web of prejudice, survival, and hidden agendas.

B‑12’s wry narration reveals a society of discarded automatons who must navigate a harsh, junk‑filled landscape while grappling with the sting of being deemed inferior. As he slips into Benny’s hidden den, the story unfolds with sly humor and a glimpse of the fragile alliances forming among the planet’s outcasts. Listeners will be drawn into a gritty, futuristic underworld where ingenuity and cunning are the only currencies left for a forgotten metal soul.
