 (For correspondence and updates, please go to : https://ricebowl70.blogspot.com/2025/08/updates.html )   The Alextras Colony had always been a rather terrible place to live, the climate on the planet being intolerable to most people and the work only barely tolerable to everyone else who decided to live there. Still, you didn’t have much choice but to work, you needed the money after all, and as such you were back in the factory, working away on the production line for things that people weren’t even buying anyways. However, one day you were walking home and looked up to the sky to see something shimmering in the distance, something that was quickly falling to the ground that had presumably come down from space.

Please post to Nightmare waifus.)   You had always known that getting in shape was never going to be easy, especially since your other New Year's resolutions had never amounted to anything much beforehand but this year you decided to take it seriously. The first thing that you did after you recovered from New Year’s Day was to get a gym membership, figuring that the amount of money you were going to spend on it was incentive enough to actually go to the gym in the first place. So far that had proven to have worked with you going every week for the past few months to gain something resembling muscle, wanting to at least shake off the first impression that you were a massive nerd based on your appearance alone.
