Oh! I am so very glad you set the bar on this one <3 damn, you better let us see the full 2000. This is so well rooted, the way you drawn on the wider environment, the setting, growing the banter and relationship between the boys, the history, their families, you make this real. Even with a no longer flying saucer.

The grit in this story is the kind that gets stuck in palms on adventures, the character you bring in with Traktor, the angles you add to the story, this opening has so much, and you maintain so much of it. Then the explosive ending, ahh love it!

A beautiful hectogon, elements that would shape this differently for different people, written with such skill. I could read this many times, and take it many different ways, I already have, and I am sure I will continue to.
