Since I’m sure anyone with even a basic knowledge of astronomy would probably be angry at me for the whole not mentioning gravity thing…Um. The sun sprouted arms. So it was restrained. So we couldn’t come along and watch the epic space opera that was about to take place.

That is the entirety of my handwave excuse plot.

Wow. I love how you made the story about the future of our sun, and what it used to be, and what it now is! Great job!

Bizarre and strange, but a very fun take on the challenge. It has a familiar, absurdist feel to it that I can’t quite place, but I like. Loved the tone and humor of the ending.
