DannyMay 2021. Day Four

"Stars"

Danny smiled, watching the vastness of space in all its glory, still barely believing he had finally, actually made it. He was in space.

"Hey, Fenton," a voice called from his communicator, "ready to come back in?"

"Yeah, just give me five, sir." He replied, going back to finishing closing the panel he had been working on.

"Still enjoying the view?" His superior asked from inside the ship. "Yeah, it never gets old."

Danny chuckled, ducking his head even if no one was there with him, and then white mist escaped from his mouth. "… sir, I'll get back to you."

He went ghost and left his suit behind, looking to locate whatever the heck was up here (if it was Boxy again, he'd remind him of not becoming the target of his misplaced violence).

The problem of space was that there was no noise, no sound, but at least being a ghost helped him compensate when lacking one sense. Soon enough he found himself on the other side of the ship, chasing down an undulant glow, and when he finally reached it… he found himself facing a strange creature that he just knew was not a ghost.

The upper part of its body was akin to that of a human, except for the coloration: a slightly dark shade of blue, with white freckled littered along the body, but instead of legs, the being had something eerily similar to Danny's own ghostly tail, a translucent mass of stardust, with winking light going on and off, and a white haze that reminded Danny of the milky way. It was beautiful.

The being seemed to notice him, as it turned from closely watching an open panel (that should not be open) to face him, and now the halfa could see it had no nose or ears, but it did have a mouth with several pointy teeth, and big eyes with three sets of irises.

What kind of creature are you? Danny though.

He didn't expect an answer. Least of all on his own head.

I could ask you the same.

Turn that dot into a . and these slash into / and you'll see.

Please don't correct me about space inaccuracies, I don't know anything about it I just did it because of the tweet

Because of that I don't think I will ever continue this (if anyone wants to, go on!), but just so it's clear: the starman was not trying to kill them, he's just curious about human ships, yes like Ariel. If I could write this, he and Danny would end up boyfriends.

Be gay do crimes in space!
