Wow. That was riveting. I was completely immersed in the story. Fabulous writing and what a tale. 🙂

It’s right up my alley and pulled me right in. The limited perception of the character was awesome because it could have been anything/anyone, friend or foe. The end was a mystery up to the very…end.

A space oddysey! Or oddity?
Either way nicely executed, had a touch of Alien about it especially once the thing appeared.
Nice build up and the ending was top too.

Thanks mate!
I think I got the original idea from watching & reading The Martian & then bits of Alien and a short story by Iain M Banks elbowed their way into things.
Again, tried to build up tension before the end twist. 😉

Ack! Stories like this always get to me and I know this one is going to be bouncing around in my mind. Very well written and the sense of lonely tragedy got to me.

Thanks Matt! I didn’t originally intend for it to go down the horror path but once I started writing it just seemed natural & obvious to go there.
Mind you, the real horror is realising what the suit has done…
