Meet Frank Bottom! It's 2099 and he's about to embark on a life-changing journey!ย ย
The world is divided between powerful wealthy autocrats and the struggling super-poor.
But this doesn't bother Frank, a happy-go-lucky trans-man who works 60-hour weeks as a sex-worker/barista, and partying on the weekends!ย
Quadrillionaire industrialists have all but collapsed Earth's ecosystem, aggressively strip-mining its resources to power mad projects like colonizingย Mars (sort of), a domed city on the Moon (it's complicated), and a luxury space station for the super-rich. Also one of them is secretly building an Artificial SuperIntelligence they're planning to upload their consciousness into. No biggie.ย
But Frank doesn't care! He's got his own apartment, a good roommate, and doesn't totally hate his work. Sure his "apartment" is a windowless storage locker you can't even stand up inโฆ located deep in the crowded, polluted, lower-levels of the space stationโฆ and his roommate curses like a sailorโฆ and it costs a fortune to keep his HornyFans account goingโฆ but hey THINGS COULD BE WORSE!ย
Recently scientists have made a startling new discovery: a previously hidden wormhole right here in our own solar system! A gateway to another world! And even more spectacular: they have established radio contact with the people on the other end! A powerful new starship is built to journey to this new world so we can steal all their resourโerrโmake new friends! Yeah!ย
Around this time THINGS GET WORSE for Frank!
He's arrested under new laws banning sex-work, and deported from the space station along with other "sex criminals." However he's offered a deal: his sentence may be reduced if he agrees to work as a "comfort worker" aboard the new starship, servicing the military on board.ย
