Friday Flash Fiction 5: Sensor Boosters
Time for another week of Friday flash fiction! To recap:
That means I will post a small prompt every Friday. The following Tuesday, I’ll update the post with links to your own stories on your own blogs or even the EVE forum (preferably submitted through the comments here). This might consist of a phrase, or an object, or a location, or something else. Use it as the core theme, the starting sentence, or anything else; you just have to include it somewhere in the story. And the story should be really short. Definitely under one thousand words, but even greater brevity has great value. If you can tell a cohesive story (character, plot, theme) in a bare few sentences, go for it.
This week’s prompt:
Combat ships depend on their sensor strength and signal resolution for targeting other ships, whether for friendly purposes or as a precursor to opening fire. Many pilots find themselves needing to improve their abilities in this regard. This week, let’s talk about sensor boosters. Maybe they play a key role in a fight, maybe a technician struggles to get them equipped, maybe a lone genius has found a way to increase their performance. Whether you take a technical turn or simply reference them in character drama, see what you can do!
