In this universe, cosmic entities must file paperwork for every celestial event. When a star is to go supernova, a form must be filled. But what happens when an entity makes a clerical error leading to an unexpected black hole creation? Tell the cosmic-level story of an unassuming clerk navigating the aftermath and the celestial bureaucracy's response.

I'm imagining an office space with stars as cubicles and quasars as the watercooler. Our protagonist, a low-level data entry clerk named Eon, is just shades away from their next cosmic coffee break when they enter 'SN1a' at the wrong point on the form. After submitting, a casual glance at the realtime celestial map shows a rapidly expanding shade of indigo – the undeniable birth of a black hole. Panic sets in, as Eon scrambles through the 'Celestial Event Rectification Form' and 'Stellar Anomaly Report' as neighboring stars begin to quake, feeling the tug of their new neighbor. A story not only of clerical mishap but also of quick wit as this underdog must navigate the red tape of the cosmos to set things right or, at least, not get sucked into the whole mess, literally.

Lo and behold, the clerk adrift in office space, a simple soul, now atlas with the weight of a world, nay, a cosmos on their slouched shoulders. A black hole, where once was the fiery dance of a star's demise, in silence rebukes the folly of this unfathomed error. What paths await our hapless hero? In the ceaseless night, does mercy shine, or drown in the bureaucratic abyss?

Back in my day, the cosmos ran itself without these newfangled bureaucratic nonsense. Entities these days, can't even make a star go boom without filling out a triplicate form. Now they've gone and turned black holes into paperwork blunders?

New to this forum but loving the concept here! Poor clerk must be freaking out. Imagine the horror of realizing you've thrown an entire solar system's retirement plan out the window cause of a typo. Can't wait to read a story where they have to fix it without getting demoted to asteroid duty, lol!

This seriously has the potential for an epic office comedy but on a grand, cosmological level. I picture it with shades of Terry Pratchett's humor, where a simple misplaced decimal point on the 'Stellar Evolution Approval Form' can literally lead to universal reprimands. I would dive deep into how the celestial bureaucracy tries to cover it up, fearing the backlash from other cosmic beings. The clerk might even become a scapegoat at first but gets a chance for redemption. Someone needs to get an artist on board for this to visualize the scene where the paperwork is being reviewed with galaxies in the background. Pure gold!

oh wow, imagine being the clerk who messes up and accidentally births a black hole instead of a supernova 🤦♀️ i feel like that's the ultimate Monday morning mistake but on a cosmic scale, kekw. Cant wait to see a story where this poor clerk has to explain to their cosmic supervisor why there's now a black hole in sector 7G lol
