turns out I still *extremely* love this story, stoked that reading to @caraesten tonite gave me a chance to revisit it.
everything I want in a space story (Overview Effect, claustroagoraphobia, unknowableness) threaded through crystal sharp zone prose.

I like cosmic horror bc it& #39;s a purpose-built vessel for any writer to conjure the sublime.
I enjoy cosmic horror when it pairs its nihilism with ways a human mind can positively, empathetically, resiliently integrate the terror borne of those lethal hyperobjects closing in on us
