The microwave became his best friend or the  chef of his kitchen. The only thing he’d buy were microwaveable meals, mac and cheese and other pasta bakes. He trusted the Mac and cheese the most the others kind of freaked him out. He didn’t trust if people were refrigerating it...

There was a bittersweet feeling in returning back to earth. Always bittersweet, that’s what kept him awake at night. He didn’t mind the journey, always the same. Most of it he slept, but just the whole change. Like his routine would change.

Pete found a friend from when he was 8-12, then they had a small break before hanging out again. He didn’t remember why they stopped hanging out, he imagined it was about his mom not wanting him too. Or the other kids, the other kid was always pretty bright.

He wondered what Keith thought about all this. Why he was up here with all of them. Most of the time he felt like a degenerate, he felt like they were all degenerates compared to him. That’s part of the reason he was there, sort of hoping it would sort...

Anyway, he was happy with what Keith...

Everyone wore slippers in  Spacecity . If he was with his friends from back in the day they'd give him so much shit. He remembers when he told one of them he wore pajamas, and the guy just laughed at him. He felt bad, and never wore pajamas again. Even...
