Strange Geometrical Hinges
Your ship is currently orbiting Ganymede. It's also about to be destroyed. You only have so much time--and so many bodies--left before the end.
Written for the Single Choice Jam.
I know death hath ten thousand several doors
for men to take their exits; and 'tis found
They go on such strange geometrical hinges,
You may open them both ways . . .
(The Duchess of Malfi, John Webster)

This was a really fun experience! I liked the way the setting slowly developed and the lens through which the story was told. Great work!
