I was one of the few who got off the planet before it happened.
As i stood there, watching my home planet burn, the Niexrtian who saved my life simply because we traded bad jokes on the extranet put a sucker on my shoulder.
"You good?"
"I... We were just so fucking stupid, ignoring the signs, refusing to fix things because it was too hard..."
They made a guttural coughing sound.
"Hey, everyone goes through that, my tribe ruined a dozen planets before we achieved balance. Next one be better."
That's when they noticed the lack of other escape craft.
