The Final Oblivion was far larger than Dana expected. Sure, she’d known that her cousin Esme had been assigned to a big one but she hadn’t expected a full solar system sized station. Just the human habitat was the size of Earth’s moon.
What she had expected was that Esme would refuse to come to the family reunion. Wasn’t disappointed there. Annoyed. Not disappointed.
Getting Esme’s butt off the station and onto a transport for home wasn’t as easy as showing up, though. There were problems that needed fixing and Dana would fix them if that was what it took.
No way was she going to the reunion if Esme wasn’t.
Avoiding the Reunion is a funny SF short story that queer women are sure to laugh at and love for years to come.
