Up On Lowman

Synopsis:
The year is. . .the future. Not the past, not the present, not the distant-distant future, possibly not even the distant future but the future nonetheless. Earth's done. It's gone. We fucked it. Cue: Planet Lowman. An Empire ruled by a monarchy obsessed with wealth, excess and excessive wealth. Xandor, our extra-terrestrial environmentalist, is the only Lowman who can see the inevitable destruction at the end of this gold plated tunnel. In his attempts to clean up his planet, Xandor stumbles across our humans caught in the sea of astro-trash surrounding Lowman. One of the humans in particular, Cheryl our no-nonsense, kiwi heroine, catches Xandor's eye. Can an interstellar relationship last? Is it even possible? (Y'know what we mean.) Will Lowman meet the same fate as Earth? Will Graham ever find his pants? What, who's Graham? Come and find out!
