Description:

Mickey7
Dying isnt any funbut at least its a living.

Mickey7 is an Expendable: a disposable employee on a human expedition sent to colonize the ice world Niflheim. Whenever theres a mission thats too dangerouseven suicidal the crew turns to Mickey. After one iteration dies, a new body is regenerated with most of his memories intact. Mickey signed on to escape from both bad debts and boredom on Midgard.

After six deaths, Mickey7 understands the terms of his dealand why it was the only colonial position unfilled when he took it.

When he goes missing and is presumed dead at the hands of deadly indigenous creatures, Mickey8 reports for duty, and their troubles really begin.

Antimatter Blues
Summer has come to Niflheim. The lichens are growing, the six-winged bat-things are chirping, and much to his own surprise, Mickey Barnes is still alivethat last part thanks almost entirely to the fact that Commander Marshall believes that the colonys creeper neighbors are holding an antimatter bomb, and that Mickey is the only one whos keeping them from using it. Mickeys just another colonist now. Instead of cleaning out the reactor core, he spends his time these days cleaning out the rabbit hutches. Its not a bad life.

Its not going to last.

It may be sunny now, but winter is coming. The antimatter that fuels the colony is running low, and Marshall wants his bomb back. If Mickey agrees to retrieve it, hell be giving up the only thing thats kept his head off of the chopping block. If he refuses, he might doom the entire colony. Meanwhile, the creepers have their own worries, and theyre not going to surrender the bomb without getting something in return. Once again, Mickey finds the fate of two species resting in his hands. If something goes wrong this time, though, he wont be coming back.
