Spoiler Alert – This post will talk about IF and it WILL contain spoilers. If you haven’t yet watched this film, you might wish to skip this post.
I didn’t have any interest in watching IF. A film about imaginary friends didn’t appeal to me.
I am one of six kids and I am also an extreme introvert. As a child, I certainly wasn’t inventing more people to spend time with. (grins)
But IF was playing on repeat on the cruise ship’s movie channel and…I got sucked in.
THREE times.
Because, stars, this movie was AWESOME. I laughed my a$$ off. AND I cried so hard.
The film could be interpreted in a variety of ways. I viewed it as an exploration of the importance of support systems.
We need them. Even if it means inventing imaginary support systems and beings.
And when we lose them, that could be through the death of a support being or growing up and getting too busy to maintain or believe in our support systems, it impacts us. Greatly.
The characters in our stories need support systems also. Sure, they might go it alone for a few scenes. But they eventually need to either establish a new support system or touch base with an existing one.
Because we, humans, need support systems. Even if they are all in our minds.

Claiming Cure
A proud cyborg medic meets his human match.
***
Cyra has tasks to complete before she dies.
There are patients to heal, a dangerous mission to undertake, and a world to save. She doesn’t have time to entertain uninvited guests.
Especially one coldhearted cyborg medic who thinks he’s better than her.
The male might be breathtakingly handsome. His sternly set lips might be extremely kissable. And his touch might draw out a passion she didn’t think she was capable of feeling.
But he’s also a distraction, one that might doom millions of innocent beings to a painful, horrible death.
Cure isn’t emotionless. He feels…greatly. Listening to that malfunction has caused other beings pain and suffering in the past.
He refuses to allow his desires to cloud his judgment now.
His resolve is tested when he’s forced to associate with the most provoking, alluring medic in the universe.
Cyra is his genetic match, the one being in the universe he is fated to protect, touch, claim. She’s clever and beautiful, and the need to hold her almost downs his systems.
But now is not the time to indulge his great wanting.
Cure has an assignment to complete.
If he fails to accomplish his goals, everyone he cares for, including his human female, will die.
