Welcome to the launch of the Big Sky Intergalactic Dating Agency Cosmic Connections Cruise!
Captain Ellix Nehivar has signed on for the shakedown cruise of some ridiculous âalien date-and-mateâ scam. As if love is just hiding out among the stars. Ehrm, kind of like how he is hiding from the excessively cheerful Earther in charge of the eveningâs entertainment? They might be sharing a ship for the night, but sheâs too small, too fragile, and too happy for the dangers of spaceâor for him.
Cruise director Felicity Rowe is so excited for her first extraterrestrial job, she canât even sleep. Probably just those peculiar spaceship sounds. And maybe sheâs just slightly terrified of her grumpy boss. The towering, glowering Kufzasin with an eyepatch and scars under his golden fur looks like a lion-pirate who might abduct and devour herâĶ Which she did not footnote on the secret page of her to-do list! Sheâs determined to make this maiden voyage extra-super fun for everyoneâeven for growly Captain Never-Smiles.
The Cosmic Connection Cruise is a chance for lonely hearts to find each other in the vast emptiness of interstellar space. See, it says so right on the brochure. Too bad this ship has other ideasâĶ
Haunted love boatâin space
Eccentric found family
Ill-advised workplace romance
