Day 1,880

Humanity never really knew what fear was until the sun yawned.

It looked like a mini eclipse at first and the news reported that an asteroid had flown at just the right angle to cause it before shooting off into the depths of space. We believed it too, for the most part at least. There was even a video allegedly taken by a satellite that showed the sheer scale of it.

Then the real video came out about a week later.

Did you know the sun has seemingly endless rows of needle-like teeth? Neither did we until we watched it and suddenly the strange shape and timing of the "mini eclipse" made a lot more sense. Of course there were a few months of mass hysteria and the varying governments desperately trying to convince us that it was all a hoax while every major astronomical figure in the world replied with proof.

Proof that they'd known the sun was alive for decades. It had a heartbeat, it breathed and, as we all saw in the video, it had a mouth which meant that at some point it would need to eat. There's still a ton of debate about what a sun eats or it the mouth is for fighting other suns, if other suns are alive too.

Our biggest issue is figuring out if we're big enough for it to eat if it wakes up, whenever that may be.
