    Grass always appears greener on the other side. He made the right choice, but will forever try to figure out if there was a wish that could have gotten him true love and a spaceship

      He should have wished to be the protagonist in his very own sci-fi space show set on a “light freighter” style of ship.

      Then you’re guaranteed at least two romance options (four, if you swing more than one way), your own ship, and plot armor.

        And being a tortured mind due to a dark secret revealed with flashbacks every other night.

        Ooh, good wish … only don’t make it a show, make it a life, because people on shows are only acting and the spaceships aren’t real

          I imagined it more like “the show is now your real life” but definitely didn’t specify “not becoming an actor to play a part” but yeah.

          Iwas envisioning something like Firefly, the Expanse (but less dangerous) or literally any game where the plot involves you being on a small cargo-capable ship with light guns and tons of questionable illegal mods.

          Let’s be honest, I was picturing the Millennium Falcon…

          True love is being willing to give almost anything for the other person. It is also being unwilling to accept that, because you would also be willing to do the same.

          Somewhere in the middle you find what is best for both of you.
