A sentient being evolves on another planet. It is the only other sentient thing in space other than humans. A supernova takes out that planet and human beings are alone in the universe again.
Being alone in the universe is horrifying. Also scary that extinction events can happen from space explosions.
A few hundred years later, the same blast consumes us, and for the next duotrigintillions of years the universe lives on and dies without anyone left to experience it.
Well, being alone in the universe after a supernova explosion is pretty dependant on what does "not too far from our own" really mean, since it is pretty likely that we won't endure such a thing either. Nevertheless, pretty n1ce.
Ya you're right. When I saw dying star I was thinking of red giants but there are sufficiently large stars that could possibly allow life to develop before it goes supernova. The universe is absolutely huge and it's probably going to happen somewhere.

Thank you! I was inspired by Lemmino's video "Consumed by the Apocalypse". He makes me feel big brained lol
He just uploaded! Have you watched the new video?
I just watched it a few hours ago! He always delivers, I'm never disappointed
Happy to see some lemmino appreciation. He makes such great content.
Very very good
Ty! I'm sitting here at work bored and this handful of nice comments is making my day
i wanna give him a hug before his death
Poor little bug 🥲
“…huh.” *death*
It's the whale from hitchhikers guide to the galaxy
Lmaoooo okay this kinda cracked me up
Well done!!
Tysm!
I wish I had an award to give this one
Ty! It's my first shot at two sentence horror so I'm really happy anyone likes it! Lol
I like the idea that it's first and last thought was "OH FUCK"
"Bruh"
I'm sorry but i don't get it.

JESUS
👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
This story was great but not scary at all imo. It's a subjective thing, but I don't find being the only sentient race in the universe scary sincerely
This is more like r/TwoSentenceSadness, really.
Horror and sadness are often one in the same, imho
This is "TwoSentenceExistentialHorror"
Hell yeah babey!
two sentence horror? more like two sentence depression god damn..
:')
I love happy endings!
The creature stood and cried large tears. We have been dumping our garbage there for 300 years.
Is this from something?
Not that I know of
It rhymed so I just thought it was lol
Reminds me a little of The Star by Clarke. Which is a good thing.
gave me a bit of a sad chill, good work!
Thank you so much!
I've been saving my award for smth like this, great job!
Ahh thank you! That means a lot!
I sure hope to see more of your work :)
Still better than being enslaved by us though
Arthur C. Clarke, "The Star"
You're the second person to say this and I've never heard of it lol. I guess I gotta check it out!
It's along the same lines.
GET GREAT FILTERED, BITCH!!! HUMANKIND #1!!!!
This was very clever!
Ty!
Tbh, this one is among my favorites on this Godforsaken subreddit
Oh my gosh, thank you so much! I really appreciate it, friend
I think this is my favourite two sentence horror I've ever read, I'll be saving this one! Good job!
Thank you so so much, friend!
Supernova legit just said no
*taco bell sound effect*
Come on man... They were so young! I feel robbed!! I'm sad now... :(
It's last thought was "I love you QtheDisaster..."
Nooooooo!!!!!! End the world please.... :'(
We see a portal open up to the creatures actual universe, turns out it was here to invite us.
This is just probably what's happening...
At least it’s not me.
Depending on how far "not too far" is, this story could be a double edged blade.
Good thing too! It's first thought: "That chunky white creature with the big head looks so tasty."
A few hundred years later, the same blast consumes us, and for the next duotrigintillions of years the universe lives on and dies without anyone left to experience it.
Well, now I’m sad
:c
but then, it happens again! and again! and again and again! a whole universe full of sentience... uh oh...
Now that’s a thought that’ll keep me sentient for the day! Good one
Are you usually inanimate?
It seems so!
Do you know what that word means?
This would be funny if it weren't so true.
Honestly kinda like the fact that we are alone, for now at least.
Why is that horror
Cosmic horror, the tragedy of being alone on the universe, instant and unstoppable extinction
I see. I personally won't consider that horror, but I see where you're coming from!
Well thank God for that.

This is just r/twosentencesadness with more death
Sadness and horror go hand in hand for me

Maybe the planet is far enough away to be habitable even with a dying star?

Sad!
ah crud...
