A young lady stands in her bedroom. It just so happens that today, the 13th of April, 2041, is a big day for her, seeing as she and her three friends are preparing to embark on an adventure of a lifetime. Before anything, though, we must know one thing:

What is this young lady's name?

Kate wasn't feeling too well. Not only did her period apparently start overnight, but now, when she woke up, she kept hearing this sickening voice of the otherworldly narrator. Her life wasn't narrated, she believed and was fairly confident of it, but the truth was that in fact, there were now two different people narrating her life.

Your name is KATE. Oh my god, shut up! Just shut up! I already know my name, thank you. Kate thought, but that did nothing to ease the pains of everything that was surrounding her, up to and including school- oh, today's a Saturday. Slightly relieved, Kate went to the kitchen and waited for her smart house to deliver breakfast, but only heard the narrator again.

As was previously mentioned, today is a BIG DAY for you, seeing as YOU and your THREE FRIENDS today in the DISTANT FUTURE- It's not the "distant future", it's the freakin' present. Now, please shut up, once again. Sure, it was a bit hard to believe that, what with technology surrounding you every second of your life, but yes. The residents of 2041 believed they were in the present, as did the residents of every single year before then and after then.

Listen. At this point, Kate is already dealing with a narrator ruining her life. The story should better move on to some other kid.

Robert Canterbury was wondering about almost nothing.

Like the tens of millions of sheep on Tumblr, he was taught by the constantly mutating yet eternal community to just have everything delivered to him and laugh when his friends did. In fact, he was browsing Tumblr on his smartphone at this very moment, still being stuck in the shared memory of thirty years past and being indifferent to the fact that he had just flown from what was once California (now named the West Coast Nation) to the other side of the continent to meet his slightly different Internet friend.

As he looked around, two more people appeared. One boy and one girl, all around the same age. Being parts of a hivemind and having begun following each other on Tumblr, they all were able to simultaneously think about how long ago there were the nineties kids, then the noughties kids, then the tens kids and finally the group they belonged to, the twenties kids. Back when the nineties kids were the only group using Tumblr, because what would become the noughties kids were still known as "12.9 year olds", they had created their own very distinct personality based on what was hip and cool at the time.

As the decades passed, the differences between the nineties kids and the new group began to appear. While the nineties kids were more whimsical and random, the noughties kids were more in awe because they thought that they had taken a flight to the future, what with the unending fall of Back to the Future references beginning with 2015.

And just as that moment, Robert took a painful launch back to the present day as Kate's front door slammed right in front of him, and Kate, originally more angry with the second narrator, became more distraught as the first thing she ever did to her Internet friends in real life was hit him with a door.

"Man, you okay?" the stranger girl asked Robert.

"This severedSovereign girl is really pissed off," Robert answered in the same way everyone on Tumblr seemed to talk now.

"Kate Parker. I am Kate Parker." The resident of the house objected, but then everyone noticed that at the time, she was taking a flashlight with herself to the spaceship, as part of a stereotypical detective.

"Flashlight Girl." The other boy had decided, and the two arrivees agreed on it. Soon enough, pictures of this strange person from a land before the Internet had flown across all Tumblr, with fanart and cheap imitations of the girl.

Meanwhile, when Kate was done packing her own stuff, she turned back to the front door and asked: "Are you going?"

"We're going somewhere?" one of the strangers asked.

"Yes, that's why I brought you here."

"Oh really?" another one asked. It wasn't really relevant, since all of them had learned to think as one being.

"Yes, really. Now get going." Kate reported and the other kids had followed, but then three more people appeared:

The strangers' guardians.

They didn't really say anything, though, being part of the first Tumblr-enabled generation, and instead found Kate's father in her house, as if to get their own group together to counter the leaving group of Kate and co.

They had looked out the window, where they finally saw Kate's spaceship fully charged, four people walking into it, one of them switching buttons and the spaceship taking off, burning the lawn. They were still too busy reuniting, and since no one cared to extinguish the newly created fire, the computerized house had to do it itself.

"Man, no one pities the computerized house," Kate's father finally said. "It always gets to do the hard stuff for us."

"I'm just doing what I was designed to do." The house responded and the four adults pondered the great words, as the story was finally taking off from Earth itself and approaching whatever alien planet was to be encountered first.
