A short story about a depressed astronaut (Tom) and his arch nemesis (Will Stanton).
It's funny, just trust me.
Written one line (ish) at a time by two bored humans in an English class.
To my best knowledge we are both posting this to our individual accounts so don't accuse us of copying.
(Not my photo tho)
Fade is on an elevator in space, and he doesn't know how he got there.
The last thing he remembers is stumbling out of his 2023 grad party. He's a trainweck of a human with zero skills or talents, and it's very clear he has no business being in space, or in an elevator full of heavily armed people.
As it turns out, they're professional space cleaners responsible for removing space problems. They've all been given a mission to figure out why a research station went dark. Fade is informed that yes, he is part of the team, and actually, he's the guy in charge!
If Fade is going to have the slightest chance of surviving this, he's going to have to do his best to fake it till he makes it. That is, if his own secrets don't get him first.
