thinking about that thing in some fantasy stories where the power of magic is fading away

and just thinking about some kind of far-future sci-fi where like, the power of chemistry or gravity or something is fading away

@Felthry I don't even know how this would WORK but it sounds really neat...

like if /chemistry/ stopped working everyone would just kinda... die in some weird way?? That'd be a huge saving-the-world arc.

@Felthry Gravity stopping working would be less terrifying but we'd still lose the sun pretty fast...

@IceWolf if it's far future scifi anyway, just set it in deep space on spaceships, maybe no one lives on planets anymore because they noticed gravity was weakening and evacuated

i'm thinking about this being a really gradual process over centuries or something

@Felthry Oh huh!

...okay now I feel bad for all the nonhumans.
