Nights in the Federation were a wondrous thing.
On the distant Polar Star, soldiers guarding the frontier drank foul-tasting yet potent and filling Nutrient Liquid beneath the galaxy.
On the Low-level Stars, young adults might still be toiling in the mines, while children were perhaps scavenging through trash, or perhaps already fast asleep.
On the bustling worlds, corporate drones were finally getting off work after a long day, a slice of life in its myriad forms. Meanwhile, Jiang Tianming and his crew were having a little get-together at a karaoke bar.
This little get-together was to celebrate Jiang Tianming's latest achievement: 'conquering' the 'honor student' from a Low-level Star in record time.
Glasses clinked and drinks flowed as the dim, hazy lights illuminated their young shells.
Someone raised their glass. "Young Master Jiang, you're incredible! How long did it even take? It's gotta be a new record. A home run in less than a day, hahaha."
