[WP] Ever since you were born you've possessed the power to teleport wherever you're currently looking. Depressed and unsatisfied, you decide to end your life by looking towards the stars. You're not dead.

*It's been thirty-two minutes and twenty-one seconds since I've achieved the impossible. Floating  in space and still being alive. I'm not sure how and I don't know how to reverse it, I've tried everything I can think of and nothing seems to help. I can move my limbs but it's not like swimming, it doesn't move me, it just keeps me in place while tiring me out. I wonder if I'll ever get back down…

*Well… it has now been over two hours and I believe I'm still floating in the same space or at least close to it. I can't tell really, there are no markers or anything for scale so I can see if I'm moving or not. As far as I know I could spend the rest of my life in this exact same spot, never moving, never getting any closer to home.

*I'm starting to become hungry, I hadn't eaten yet today and now I've been floating for over six hours. I feel my mind starting to unravel trying to come up with a way to out science… well science. There's got to be some way to escape this, but I lack the ingenuity and IQ to find the answer I'm looking for. Maybe if I wait long enough, it'll just come to me like an epiphany.

*Still waiting on that epiphany. I may not have moved forwards or backwards or side to side but at least I've rotated so I'm facing earth. It's incredible. I wish everyone could see it how I get to see it, it's life changing. Seeing our modern marvel of a planet is making me regret how I chose to live my life… so many things I could have done on that monstrous sphere. But no longer, Now all I can do is hope I get to face it forever.

*I believe it's been almost a full day, at least I think it has been. I left my watch back home, way down there… or up there. Whichever it is.

*Space air has an interesting flavor, tastes like a mixture of copper and bananas, never would have guess had you asked me before. I'm just glad that I love bananas, not so much the copper but I'm adjusting to the penny like flavor.

*I am now completely unaware of how long I've been up here. I have an idea, but I don't quite approve of it. I've never been one for the ultimate sacrifice but at this point its better than starvation. All I have to do is wait for the sun to come back around, and wish to myself to go there. I'll be the first person to ever reach the sun. I know it wont but, hopefully it ends better than it did for Icarus.

*Well, I have only a few more minutes before I see the sun again. If this is my last transcript, then I have successfully reached the sun. If this isn't my last transcript then… god really doesn't exist after all. Here it comes, I'm going to start a countdown: Ten, Nine, Eight, Seven, Six, Five,Four, Three, Tw--.
