A Space Appreciation Post

"I'm gonna explore the universe!" That's the dream Jase sought for himself since he was a kid. He wanted to see everything from landmark asteroid belts to the perilous unknown.  So when his adult years turned out to be a day-to-day grind at some crappy solar auto body shop, he was less than thrilled. Jase, being the gifted thinker he is, couldn't help but feel unfulfilled.  That is until an odd duo turns up in his shop one day, an encounter that would completely overhaul his life.  A random encounter and false pretenses may not be the most conventional job offer. Still, Jase didn't hesitate to accept the position as a serviceman for a notorious intergalactic pirate crew. The new job does give him a fair shot to indulge in his all-but-forgotten dream of adventure.
