In the cyborg world, the main method of cleaning skin and bodies is by using cleaning cloths.
Cleaning cloths are NOT wipes. (grins) They aren’t the little pieces of material some of us have been using to sanitize our hands during the pandemic. Those wouldn’t be effective at all for larger clean ups and for everyday use.
A few years ago, in the Before Times, I attended the Consumer Electronics Show in Vegas and met a scientist/inventor. He was looking for funding for a project he was working on.
That project was a liquid-less fabric that could clean bodies, other fabrics, other surfaces. The technology it utilized was similar to electronic charges. The cleaning fabric was ‘recharged’ in a little machine.
He claimed his cleaning fabric was more effective than soap and water.
Cleaning cloths are an evolution of that idea. They are much more advanced and more effective than the demo cleaning fabric I saw.
You might be wondering…
Why don’t the cyborgs use water to clean themselves?
Water is more valuable than sunstones in the universe. Heck, I suspect in 300 years, drinkable water will be more valuable than diamonds right here on Earth.
The number of planets supplying water to the ever-increasing populations of humans and humanoids are few. Water can’t be squandered on cleaning beings or clothing or things. It has to be reserved for drinking.
So beings, being inventive, devised another solution – cleaning cloths. Cleaning cloths are portable, effective, can be used pretty much forever, and don’t require liquids.

Under Strain
A damaged cyborg warrior is hunted by a peace-loving human female.
***
Strain is severely malfunctioning. The D Model cyborg was the sole survivor after a horrific decision was made by his cruel manufacturers. He hates all humans, and when he attacks one who is under his cyborg leader’s protection, he is reprimanded, stripped of his weapons, and told to watch and not actively participate in the next mission.
That mission takes place on a small remote planet. Its lush terrain should only be inhabited by the cyborgs they were sent to rescue, but Strain senses another presence on the surface. She is watching him, tracking him, hunting him.
A fully operational cyborg would end her lifespan.
Strain wants to claim her. Forever.
Kamyelle is the only one left of her kind. Warriors have killed the other nonviolent human inhabitants of her planet. She survived…barely…by hiding in the trees, observing her enemies, and covering herself with lifeform scan-concealing mud.
When a handsome, gray-skinned, brilliant-blue-eyed male arrives, surrounded by weapon-carrying warriors, she has to save him. Warriors harm and they kill. That is what they do.
She won’t allow them to hurt Strain.

Under Strain is a STANDALONE Cyborg SciFi Romance set in a dark, gritty, sometimes-violent universe.
It features a broken warrior, a human female who thinks he’s perfect, and velociraptor-like dinosaurs who view them both as light, tasty snacks.
