Still got a good chunk of writing in, even with the craziness of the shutdown ending! Dare I say the end of draft one is in sight??

A mix of Titan AE, Ex Machina, and Lost in Space 🚀✨ #FiFRevPit

BEAUTY & THE BEAST x STAR TREK Roan, part of the last team of archaeologists sent to Earth, stumbles into an ancient bunker haunted by the AI mind of a trillionaire. She’s the only one who can fix his tech, but can she save him before Earth is swallowed by the Sun? #MockPit #FiFRevPit

BATB x STAR TREK 🏺Roan thought she was going to Earth to save her boss after a failed expedition. 🤖 Instead she found love in the form of a repentant trillionaire trapped in an AI. 🥀 Will she risk deadly solar storms, stealing spaceships, and losing her tenure to save them? #MockPit #FiFRevPit

I asked my boss to bring me back a disk drive from his archaeological dig on Earth for my research. Now he’s missing and his logs indicate he was after my data. My colleagues all think it’s my fault and I should go look for him, but I hate space travel. AITA? #FiFRevPit

The music. Growing up on a space station means she doesn’t know a lot about fancy food, but she does have the largest music collection in the inter-station system 🎶 #FiFRevPit

This WIP feels so self-indulgent, so even when I’m struggling it’s still a good time #FiFRevPit
