won't lie to you that was pretty epic

That was a waste of my time. I demand my five minutes back!

...I'd just waste them anyway.

Wait, you want a four minute interest on the time spent watching these two 30 second videos?
NEVER !

Given how lame that was, it is only fair.

That is just awesome

I hate it when people animate themselves as overly good looking.

Since when do I not look good?

Now I am just confused. There is no way I could ever be that fat!

I'm working on something that actually might not turn out to be a waste of time

Essentially the larger story will be the war between the Earth domain and the Alpha Centauri colonies. There will be twist to this with involvement of space pirates as well as internal rivalry between China and the US. <s>The ships travel at near speed of light but not faster than light.</s> Most technology has reached a limit where improvements are impractical. This ensures that ships that have been traveling in space for 100s of years are not outdated before they fulfill some useful purpose. Most people still live in poverty, but the top 1% has access to biomechanical cybernetic treatments that extend their life indefinitely. <s>Infinite source of energy has been discovered.</s>

Some of the characters are based on people I've met, as long as 13 years ago.

The main character is Saki who single-handedly commands the Earth ship, <s>Kamikaze</s> Sakura, which has a supercomputer onboard named Sen no Rikyu. She also has a little brother, Taka, under her custody. They are both 30 years old, although originally their age difference was 10 years.

Master Josh is the leader of the pirate group that captures Taka while he is secretly traveling around the colonies without his sister's permission. Master Josh has supernatural powers.

Spencer is a deserter of the Earth fleet. His ship, Corning, serves as the mothership for the pirates. He has insider knowledge of the Earth fleet and aids greatly in the capture of Saki's ship by using Taka as hostage.

All the armed ships are on long-term missions and carry mini colonies with about 500 civilians onboard. In case of catastrophe, people are evacuated in life boats that are picked up by allied or enemy search vessels. Both are immune to attack by enemy as long as they are checked and their locations are constantly broadcasted.

I made all this up just now as I was potsing here.

Feel free to make suggestions.
