Hey all! Had an idea for a setting and wondering if there'd be any interest! Don't have a full grasp on where the story should go, only the basics of the setting, so happy to let this go pretty much anywhere.
As more and more large companies throw in their lot in space exploration, the technologies to break out of the atmosphere and into the void becomes cheaper and cheaper to supply. Soon, even the most humble of people can afford to travel out of the confines of Earth into space. However, space-faring itself is still in its infancy, and there is still much to be seen and explored; many technologies still to be worked on, and fuelling is one of these issues. Many of the craft private companies are using only hold minimal fuel, and so on breaking out of the atmosphere must make a stop at one of the specially built stations for refuelling.
It was decided that these stations could be ran and maintained by AI, a delicate technology that recently has come into its own, developments become more and more impressive by the year. However, distrust of these AI still run deep, so it became law that any AI ran station or vessel must have at least one technician to override if necessary.
This is where the roleplay would take place, on a small refuelling station hanging in orbit around Earth. Y/C would be the technician, though that can be anyone you like. From here, the technician and AI would have little to do to pass the time but talk and explore their circumstance, though more dramatic events may take place sooner or later.

No magic at all.
Further future, perhaps visit mars or upload your brain
A peaceful setting, but with a chance for small fights and struggles to break out on a very small scale.
Details: Freeform, adjustable length posts, long-term RP partner preferred.
