Shishiru is a familiar-seeming planet. It's inhabited by hairless apes who've built skyscrapers and drive cars and go to school and laugh and smile and cry. With normal people like Miriam Summers and her friends Retta Aram and Temera Kachou, it's a planet whose only apparent differences from more familiar inhabited planets is its cooler climate and the three rings wrapping around its equator.

But there's something else about Shishiru, something that sets it apart from other planets you may know about, and it's a constant reminder to its citizens that the clock, it keeps on ticking.

Tick.

Tick.

Tick.

It keeps on going

Tick.

Tick.

Tick.

When she was a high school student, Nina Lin thought life after graduation was going to be great. Come life after graduation, she's found that living to pay the bills isn't a life worth mentioning, or even one worth living. And to rub salt in the wound, she reunites with some old friends whose lives are riding first class on the world's most expensive cruise liner compared to hers.

But with a little unwanted power, she finds that one of her old friends is riding the same boat in life as her.

Lost on a mountainside in the middle of a blizzard

He lies down to rest

And has a dream

walks are good, walks are nice.

but let's not walk too long or too fast.

there's work to be done, after all.

Just a simple little allegory about badgers and porcupines that'll take fifteen seconds to read.
