Title: Any Star
Author: schmevil
Summary: "This is a lonely galaxy."
Character: Carol Danvers/Binary
Word count: 100

This is a lonely galaxy. There's a scattering of bright stars nearby, and then a wide, deep black. As far as she knows, no human has been out this far from Earth.

The faint pull of the gravity well beneath her should be reassuring, (and would, if she were still human). The nameless star should be wonderful and terrifying.

To Binary, it is plainly glorious; sister to the star that sustains her.

It's not the sun, and the planet isn't Earth. It's home: same as any star; any planet, living or dead; any void, however deep.

This is peace.

END
