“How about this one: mmha. Haha. Hahahaha.”

“Nah.”

“Oh. But it was better than the last one, right?”

“Dude, you’re trying way to hard. Evil should be a no effort thing or what’s even the point? Just go with whatever feels right. Like this.”

Fangs bared in a snarl. Her laugh a mean, crooked thing. Not that it mattered—her face did the job well enough. She’d never met anyone she couldn’t scare away.

Lancer beamed at her, starry-eyed.

“That is so cool. You’re so cool, Susie. I’m glad you’re my friend.”

Well. First time for everything and all that.

You don’t remember much from before the crash, but you do remember this: after you stole the ship, after you left Earth way far behind and shook off most of your pursuers but before you lost all control of both your ship and, soon after, your life, there was a moment, just a moment, where you looked through the viewport and saw nothing but stars, so much closer than they’d ever been before and yet still so impossibly far away, and you had to remind yourself to breathe because the universe was so big and it was all yours now.
