Sonder! I really like these first two pieces. Your formatting is so neat and polished and the word choice is somehow just the right blend of academic/scientific and poetic.
This phrasing was beautiful: "you gesture vaguely to the turbid galaxies roiling above overwhelmed" I love how nonchalant that is and yet the turn to "overwhelmed" at the end.
