@savetoday gets space boyfriends.
3 years and 269 days. a lot could change in their short time on the ground, and it turns out just as much can change when you’re in space with only seven other people. relationships can fall apart ( on amicable terms, thank god ) and relationships can start. people can grow--- he’s been writing, working on his spelling, working on learning trigedasleng even though the need for it might be less whenever they go back to the ground--- and people can retreat into their shells. there’s only so much that can be done up here, and it’s very contained. everyone seems to know everything, so testing the waters for something new is difficult. but not impossible.
a heavy footstep in the doorway brings a small smile to his lips, and he leans back in his chair so that he’s ever so slightly closer to the presence that approaches him. “---it’s about time,” he teases, laying his pencil on the table and biting the inside of his cheek. “you gonna come see me or what?”
