The Pilot Who Kept Hope Aloft
Pilot by training, friend by choice, hero by necessity.
They say a pilot's job is to trust the instruments, not the feelings. But I couldn't let go of Mark—not when the mission moved on, not when the odds turned grim. I kept listening, kept hoping, and when that signal came, I got to prove that sometimes, the right call isn't on any checklist. I'm the one who made sure Watney didn't get left behind twice.
What I'm Into: Trajectory math, keeping morale, Mars comms fixes, dry humor in zero-g, never giving up on a friend
