    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.

      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…

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