Running Late
as reply to He Thought
He stopped by a gas station along the way. Bought a charger. He knew it was a ripoff but his phone was dying and he wanted to let the other guy know he would be late. Also why not fill up the gas?

The Emailer
as reply to Didn't Happen
His time up in space had gotten him to imagine a sort of life down on earth impossible. It was a life made up of images. Things that didn't happen at a regular rate or even at all for people who were living life down here. He wondered whether he...

One of the things I miss the most aboutΒ

a darker more serious reason as reply to Sleep
As the final months of Spacecity arrived for Pete he became obsessed with researching people of his past. This was kind of sad to him and was a reminder that he truly didn't belong up there anymore. The first few years he had never thought about people down there in...

as reply to Sleep
When he would return to earth he would probably go straight to his parents and stay at their place for at least a month. It had been ages since he'd stayed there that long. It was weird how after leaving home to go to college he would still return back...

He wouldn't be given the option to head back to earth until six months later. Then he would sit in front of a panel and they would discuss whether Pete would stay for another 2 years or go back down. Pete thought he knew his decision already, but then why...

One night up inΒ
Spacecity
he had been too excited for the morning coffee that he couldn't wait. Pete left his bed and tip toed down the hall. Those hallways were so cold everything was so cold up there. He was walking so quiet because he expected nobody else to...

get to the choppa
as reply to The Farm
Memories of that farm haunted him. Pete wished he could forget it. It was the only thing that kept him from fully embracing the gooning. If it weren't for those sunburnt days in Sicily, drinking cold orange soda that was so carbonated his tongue would almost burn, he might be...
