Bdubs stared into the darkness.
Everything was pitch black here, it was something you could never get used to.
Silence filled Bdubs's ears, nothing made a sound here.
He felt utterly alone.
He knew that he couldn't think about it though, he couldn't remind himself of his loneliness.
To distract himself, Bdubs started to think a message in hope.
"Can you hear, can you hear, can you hear my voice?"
How ironic it was, thinking about someone hearing his voice when he couldn't even hear it himself.
Nothing made a sound here, trying to call for attention wouldn't work.
"Coming through, coming through, coming through the noise"
Bdubs couldn't hear anything, but the silence felt loud and sounded like static.
The silence felt louder then anything could ever be on earth, even yelling didn't match the sheer noise of silence.
"I'm floating through outer space"
Bdubs was orbiting something, that was the only explanation for the circling he was doing.
Whatever it was that he was in reach of, he wanted to get closer, close enough to fall into water and be free from his prison.
"I'm lost and I can't find a way"
Bdubs had been trying to get closer to this mysterious planet ever since he had found himself stuck in the abyss of space.
But nothing was working, and he was lost in the reach of space.
"Oh, all the lights going dark and my hope's destroyed"
Bdubs knew that the stars were around him, but the void of space consumed their light.
"Help me, is anybody there?"
Could anyone hear him, or was he hopelessly pursuing something that was pointless?
Bdubs didn't really know, but he didn't particularly care either.
"Is anybody there? Is anybody there?"
These thoughts weren't as profound as his other ones, that was something Bdubs just instinctually knew.
Still, if someone was able to hear his more profound thoughts, these ones didn't matter, did they?
"Save me, I'm running out of air, ooh"
Bdubs knew this feeling creeping through his lungs, he had been alive long enough to run out of oxygen again.
He knew what would happen in the end, he would respawn in space again and lose any progress he had of finding the source of gravity that pulled at him.
"Calling out mayday"
Bdubs suffocated, and he lost a tiny bit of his hope.
Did he even have enough time to do this, or was he stuck in space for eternity?
