Flashers in Spaaaaaace (Cyberspace, That Is)

'The Flashers' is a group of writers who are tasked with producing a piece of flash fiction (under 1,000 words) each week.

Members rotate the responsibility to provide the group with three simple prompts. All members write to the same three prompts each week, and each prompt must be incorporated into the story.

There are no minimums for word count—if the story can be told in less than 1,000 words, so much the better. But 1,000 words is the absolute maximum, and if any member dares to disobey, they will forever lose their ability to properly punctuate a sentence. At least, those who possessed the ability to begin with will lose it. Others will just be mocked repeatedly.
