Gorgeous and tragic, off to a great start. Sherlock and John are hundreds of miles apart (John in Antarctica and Sherlock in space) when a virus wipes out all of mankind. They find hope and company in phone calls from one another. go read now!

RATED: E

Will Holmes is a chemical researcher recognized widely for his contributions to the new Mars exploration program. Thanks to his ground-breaking developments, the IMMC (International Mars Mission Corporation) is one step closer to Martian colonization. Will and his team of scientists are headed out on the first of three manned missions before the first group of settlers arrive. Three days before launch, one of the crew has to be replaced. Will panics because...new people.

The replacement is of course one John Watson, biomedical engineer and space hottie who was pretty sure he had retired from actual space exploration and was now content to work in the nice, quiet research lab.

Can the crew survive this TOTALLY ROUTINE trip? Will they be able to endure each other for the looooooong trip in close quarters?

{SPOILER: Of course not. That would be boring.}

Guarantee there will be drama. And explosions. And Will is gonna do something cocky and stupid. Really good chance for some zero-gravity boinking (bet ya didn't even know you needed that in your life).

Gonna be a wild ride... prepare for blast off.

*Tags under the Cut* 

Ever since this Vodaphone ad aired with Martin Freeman, I haven’t been able to get the idea of writing this fic out of my head. Because, SPACE BOIs! So, here’s chapter one! Let me know if you’d like to be added to the tags.
