Notre Voyage

We’re the crew of the spaceship boring - on a one year mission. The situation's literally life or death - this isn’t science-fiction. The crew is an actual family - ideal for such a quest, but none of us volunteered for this - it’s more like house arrest. We seek out no adventures, we avoid interaction if we can. We boldly go absolutely nowhere - isolation is the plan. Wander into our orbit - we’ll scan you with our sensors. Our station's sealed to aliens and we don't let any enter. Our voyage is just symbolic we're not in outer space, the commission is simple self-sacrifice and it happens at turtle pace. If you need me I'll be me in my capsule, safe in my virtual void, sequestered for the greater good and shelved like an unwanted toy.
