[WP] Humanity is not alone in the galaxy, but we are the first species to achieve interstellar travel. Now, millennia later, a second species achieves the same. We are now the hyper-advanced precursors and have to decide how we will interact with the younger species. | For millenia, we drifted across the stars. Alone, but not without hope. Long ago, we dreamed of making first contact. Movies with men from mars and and video games with visitors from beyond Sol marked our fascination with those in the same situation. We broadcasted our hopes into the void, as if by chance someone out t... | "So the rumours were true, Miss Alterra?" Alex asked.
"Call me that one more time, and I'll throw you into space without a suit to save you." Kaori promptly replied, pointing a figure at Alex.
Alex shrugged.

[WP] You wake up in a room with 11 strangers. In the center of the room is a metal box bolted to the floor. On top of the box is a note that reads “Whoever opens this box will die. If no one opens the box in the next 60 minutes, all of you will die.” | I don’t think they - whoever “they” were - had expected there to be a fight to *open* the box.
Well, to clarify, they had probably expected a fight about opening the box, but not people fighting to be the one to do it.

"A death game, huh? I remember Nate and Sharon getting into one like this..." I quietly mutter, eyeing the other contestants. 9 humans, one vampire and two demons, including myself.

If no one opens the box in the next 60 minutes, all of you will die.” | It was a simple test. Eleven people, two outcomes. But there was one solution my superiors and I were looking for.

The room is cold and empty, with bare concrete walls, floor, and ceiling. In one corner, a camera keeps watch over the room from its perch over a dingy metal grate. Its red light blinks slowly. It feels like it’s sending me a message: “I am here. I am watching.”

[WP] As a free roaming ghost, you finally feel like you can breach and explore Area 51. The moment youre on the base though, alarms begin blaring. "Code 62: Ethereal Intruder detected." | As I looked down at my bullet-riddled corpse, I could only think one thing.
*Mom was right.*
She'd told me that the voices I heard were all my head, a result of the mental illness that runs in my family -- as opposed to a genuine astrally-projected distress signal from alien lifeforms confined at Area 51 by a shadowy... | Alarms are blaring from all directions and red lights are going off everywhere.

[WP] As a free roaming ghost, you finally feel like you can breach and explore Area 51. The moment youre on the base though, alarms begin blaring. "Code 62: Ethereal Intruder detected." | What would you do with eternity?
Think about it.
No, really.
What would you do if you could go anywhere, do anything? Never aging, never hurtin'?
There is, of course, a catch.
You'd have to die first.
Now, my dear, death has many flavors. The nature of your life, how you die, all add a certain *je ne sais quoi* t... | Alarms are blaring from all directions and red lights are going off everywhere.

**Distance was strange on this side of the mortal veil.** The space an object took up was determined not by its physical volume, but by how much it had impacted the living souls of the world.

[WP] Someone on the moon successfully gives birth for the first time in history. In that moment, the entire population of humanity has the following message beamed into their minds: "Congratulations! You are now an intergalactic civilisation, we will be sending representatives in two days." | "Congratulations! You are now an intergalactic civilization, we will be sending—"
“Yeah. That’s what I heard, too.”
“What do you think it means?”
“Aliens are turning up, I guess.”
“Yeah, maybe, but why intergalactic?”
“Hm?”
“You could argue for inter*planetary*. I mean, inter...celestial-object is more correct.”

[WP] You were relentlessly mocked growing up whenever others found out your superpower was "Feelings". You just found out the government considers you a universal threat and has been monitoring you closely. | "Emtion kid! Emtion kid! You gonna die!"
I remember those little kids mocking me back then. They think their own superpowers we're very strong. "Telekinesis", "Darkness", "Time-Travel". All of them seem cool simply because of their little fancy names.
For me, however, mines were very basic...at least in their eyes. ... | Feelings. To most people a fleeting fancy, a mood only to pass over like a cloud on a sunny day. Not to me.
To me feelings are a resource. I stock happiness, shelve love and infatuation and bury self-loathing.
As a kid I unloaded what I could, when I could. This didn't earn me friends, but it kept me sane.

At first, you needed to wait until it manifested, roughly around 12 or 14, but science made it so it's as easy as a blood test you take when you're born.
