Astronaut Narrative Writing Prompt
Smoke drifts between old buildings. Crowds shuffle past. But in the middle of the street stands something no one expects: you, in a full astronaut suit. The visor reflects neon lights, your boots crunch over broken pavement, and heads turn. Are you lost? Training? Or just back from a mission no one else can believe?
Write this scene as the astronaut, a bystander, or even the city itself. How does the world react to someone so out of place? What story does the suit hold?
