Enemies:

European demigod Lucas Bartholomew Chamberlain 

Lucas Bartholomew Chamberlain. He is a cishet male. He is white and non-native. He is European. Lucas was an attempt to Americanize and Earth centric himself as a politician of the Terran political system. He is able bodied, allistic, & neurotypical. He is 5′11”. He has blonde hair and blue eyes. He has a crew cut hair style. He has a lean and athletic body type. He is 160 pounds. He is Roman Catholic. 

He speaks Swedish, English, German, Arabic, Spanish, & French. He is conservative and alt right. He is upper class rich. He is an intergalactic scientist, inventor, & engineer. He has a masters in biomedical engineering and PHD in xeno biology. He went to college off planet to Ivy League University on the planet Titan. He played high school varsity baseball and men’s collegiate football. He comes from a super wealthy family that owns various iron and diamond mines and refineries across the galaxy. They mine asteroids and comets in space for space ore as well. The parents are still alive but both were only children. He is also an only child. He has holographic military tattoos of the Earth and Terran Dominion military as a Earth Space Marine Corps veteran. He has holographic military tattoos on his forearms. 

He is a former super soldier. He was an officer in the Earth and Terran Dominion military. He was a colonel. He is a scientist, inventor, & engineer. He built weapons and tech for the Earth and Terran Confederation. A lot of the superweapons the Earth and Terran Dominion used for their war crimes were built by him. Like the Star Crusher a weapon that doomed the entire Regulus System to be vaporized by a supernova. To show the universe the might of the Earth and Terran Dominion military. It is why the Sol Vega and Polaris System all surrendered overnight. After seeing only a tear in the fabric of space was left. The screams of billions wiped out in an act of intergalactic genocide can still be heard across space and time. He is an intergalactic politician. He is a politician who is a remnant of the Earth government and Terran Confederation government as a former senator of the Earth High Command representing the United States. 

He views humans as weak. He hates that he is half human. He joins the super soldier program for this reason. To get rid of what he deems as human weakness. It is why he marries Daphne, a superhuman with bionic enhancements and cybernetic implants. He is a former superhero. He has delusions of grandeur. He is a megalomaniac. 

He is a supervillain, antihero, & anti-villain whichever serves him best. He has no allegiance to anyone or anything but himself. This personality was made worse when he found out that he is a demigod. He is a metahuman with superhuman: strength, speed, durability, & intelligence. The queer and trans Asian Pasifika and Latine Native superhero Kana’i Makoa Latu/Ataahua Kamalani Latu is his archenemy and rival. He/she/they is his arch enemy as he/she/they and Joanna Jacobson exposed him for who he truly was. 

Lucas Bartholomew Chamberlain is a former disgraced member of the superhero conglomerate Sentinels. He uses his background as a scientist, inventor, & engineer. He/she/they are a metamorph, changeling, & shapeshifter as an alien hybrid and a water elemental as a demigod. 

He is a demigod child of a European goddess of death. He has power over fire and decaying things. Powers he used to his advantage when conquering planets for the settler colonizer regime. He also uses forbidden dark magic against him/her/them in their battles. When he uses the power of death his eyes blaze jade. When he uses the power of fire his hand burn crimson. He wears divine armor as a demigod. The divine armor has a long red gaudy and pretentious cape. His armor is red, black, & gold. He wears a black domino mask and green face mask. In his demigod form his short hair turns into a short dutch braid. 

Lucas as a former politician was the mastermind behind many of the actions of the Earth and the Terran Confederation. He used his power, influence, control, & power to hurt people. So many of the cruel actions that Earth and the Terran Confederation did with their colonialism, imperialism, neocolonialism, & occupation was passed by him as a politician behind the scenes. Lucas as an inventor, scientist, & engineer in the shadows built many of the weapons that Earth and the Terran Confederation used to maintain their hegemony and dominion. He was one of the leaders of the Forces of Evil. He left them when they no longer served his goals.

She was the one who originally implanted the bionic and cybernetic implants into them.

Specifically more powerful fusion elemental powers like electric/lightning fire/magma manipulation, ice/water lighting/electric manipulation, acid/poison fire manipulation, shadow ice manipulation, light darkness manipulation, ice fire manipulation, lightning earth manipulation, ice earth manipulation, and fire/magma ice/water manipulation. 

This is in part to having more time to train his demigod powers. For the Asian Pasifika demigod dad the reason he knows fusion elemental powers is cuz he has a more personal relationship with the other gods, goddesses, and demigods of the oceanic pantheon from across Polynesian diaspora. Which is why the deities know about his child but are still training him/her/them. Unlike their father who is already done with training having been born in the 21st century or before as a New Age demigod now god.

Been noodling around with some math (gasp) and working on Qel’s home planet and solar system and stuff with the help of Artifexian’s solar system videos and, while I’m not quite there yet I did put some of my early test numbers into Space Engine and got these lovely screenshots.

I’m not sure if the atmosphere is too thick--google told me the earth’s atmosphere is 480 km thick but SE’s planet building guide suggest 50-100 for most terrestrial planets... I guess it depends on the gases and gravity, plus most of it should be further down so it might just be that SE isn’t really uh... layering it thinner in the higher altitudes. I used 480 here

It’s very pretty either way

also when i took the first one i didn’t realize I had almost all of the stars and related stellar things completely disabled?! whoops, fixed it though

365 Marvel Comics Paper Cut-Out SuperHeroes - One Hero, Every Day, All Year…

Back to School Supplemental - Geniuses In action Research Labs (G.I.R.L.)

Founded by Nadia Van Dyne, the young heroine known as the Unstoppable Wasp, the Geniuses In action Research Labs is an enterprise that endeavors to assess the Earth's greatest female scientific minds and provide them with the support and guidance needed to help them fulfill their potential.  

With the aide of Edwin Jarvis, Nadia recruited several young scientists and offered them funding and a research space to continue their studies and conduct their experiments.  Dr. Barbara Morese (Mockingbird) has acted as a mentor to these young scientists and the former villains, Poundcakes and Letha were later brought on to provide security.  

Thus far, there have been four principle researches working at the GIRL lab, each focusing on a different scientific discipline.  These young scientists include:

Priya Aggarwal

A true prodigy in the field of theoretical botany.  Priya developed a special formula that facilities communication with plant life.  An accident caused by a saboteur caused Priya to become exposed to a gaseous form of this formula and she ended up gaining the ability to telepathically control plant life.  

Priscilla LaShayla Smith

Shay, as she prefers to be called, is a young technological genius who was trying to build a functioning teleportation machine.   A malfunction in her device caused an explosion that caused Shay to be thrown from the window of the apartment she shared with her father.  Fortunately, The Wasp was there to save Shay and the young woman went on to accept Nadia’s invitation to join GIRL. Whist there, Shay worked alongside Tai in creating a pair of ‘Vision Gloves’ that utilized Horton Cells to make them temporarily intangible; thus allowing for entirely non-invasive surgical procedures.  

Ying Liu

Ying was an orphan raised in the notorious Red Room where she befriended Nadia.  During her training at the Red Room, Ying showed a affinity and tremendous skill for biochemistry.  It was with Ying’s help that Nadia had recreated the size-changing Pym particle thus facilitating her escape.  After this escape, Ying was dispatched to retrieve her.  This ultimately offered Ying the chance to escape herself, yet her Red Room handlers had implanted a miniature bomb at the base of her skull to dissuade defection.  Nadia and Shay were able to safely remove this bomb with the use of the Vision Gloves and Ying went on to join GIRL.  

Taina Miranda

Taina ‘Tai’ Miranda was diagnosed with cerebral palsy at a young age.  She applied herself to the study of engineering, robots and cybernetics.  She used these skills to provide improved accommodations to her home, including a lift for her wheelchair and a exo-suit that enabled her to play goalie for her sister’s soccer club.  Hearing about these feats, Nadia recruited Tai to GIRL and the young woman jumped at the chance at having greater resources to pursue her experiments.      

Additional members of the Geniuses In action Research Labs include  Amber Silverstein, Jeanne Foucault, Justine, and Lexi Miranda.  The enterprise first appeared in the pages of The Unstoppable Wasp #2 (2017).

!! !! !! (go bestie show ur blorbos to the world)

xo i owe you my life and i forgor to post this bc i wrote it on my phone and i wanted to post art with it

1. Clementine Zhang (she/her)

What Is There To Be Said About Clem. she's autistic she's adhd she's a mechanical genius she's dumb as fuck she's funny she's insane i love her i want to yeet her through a window

she was from a fairytale curses rpg and her curse was sleeping beauty, aka Getting A Full Night Of Sleep which iirc was predicated by her girlfriend being mad that she worked too hard

she has a mechanical horse which she is so bad at pretending is a real horse. the horse's name is peninsula. it only eats oil

she was named after clementine kesh bc partizan was starting around the time we started playing that. i sketched her appearance for the first time when i was with my mom in the hospital after her surgery. she's SUCH a product of her time

she's an older sister and she's forever mad she's short while her little brother is tall as fuck. her brother went away to school for years and she forgot about him (aka i forgot about him) until he showed up with a fairy wife and a Baby

in the modern au she's just a weird horse girl who's into engineering and scoots everywhere

the funniest part about clem is that me and lav roleplayed AND WROTE her and her girlfriend getting together in a dumb way and then we got together in a similar, somehow dumber way. the dynamics are damn near identical. clem and lia were INSTRUMENTAL for my relationship.

2. Dig Iwatani (he/him)

MY SKRUNKLIEST SCRIMBLO i hate dig i love dig he's the worst Twink ever

so dig started because i wanted to do a star crossed lovers thing when i gmed a space opera rpg and i needed an Antagonist so i made the boy's older sibling be an absolute BITCH of a gay. he's the crown prince he's the golden child he's the worse he's their dad's favorite he's willing to commit murder he's the heir to a fucking mining planet (that's why he's called dig) he used to be with the prince of the whole galactic empire. he's a bitch and i love him so much.

dig in the au is much more interesting imo because while i love princes the dichotomy between him being the heir to his dad's fortune AND being gay is more interesting irl so of course i made his dad, and consequently, dig, homophobic. and then his whole development came from @mira-miranha and i thinking ha wouldn't it be fun if he met this very unapologetically queer character

and then we went wait a minute. what if they Dated

and now i have multiple thousands of words about him overcoming his repression and his guilt and becoming proud of himself and letting go of the caretaker role he assumed for his siblings :) i love him so much i think he deserves the world

3. Galle Boucher (she/her)

I NEVER GET TO TALK ABOUT GALLE

she's such a creature. originally she was part of an amnesia rpg (you know that thing where you don't know your character traits and you have to figure it out little by little) and she was a knight and also a homunculus but that party became incredibly weird morally so she ended up becoming a knight of death herself???? her family is cheese farmers and her appearance was based off of that zendaya joan of arc look and she was ready to fuck

translating that into the au became so much. so she's still from a family of french cheese farmers but in a trip to the uk when she was 16 she got slammed by a car and lost her memory. so this weird dutch guy witnessed the accident and called emergency and all that and he felt responsible for her. so after that near death experience she didn't really feel a connection with her home anymore and became a goth and got adopted by the dutch guy who's not even that much older than her. now she's in mortician school, fucking her rich professor and her wife and the most recent development is of course that she's also fucking/dating nadia whom i love and whom is also rich as fuck from being a mafia princess. actually the most recent development is that she and her dad got a golden retriever named croissant. she's also a boxer and she's now on her way to becoming a wrestler. think about that one lady wrestler who's all goth and shit? that's the exact vibes for galle. her full name is gallebrie anne-marie boucher.

there's a whole thing i wrote about galle where she's gone back to her hometown and she finds out her ex girlfriend is now married with a baby in the way and she's taking care of her mom but she cant remember anyone's names. that was a fun experiment and when i know french i want to rewrite that

thank u for the ask xo sorry i took so long to answer <3

Chapter Four: Weakling

Part 5

Warning: Small injury, some cursing, Din being fluffing cute.

___________________________________ I wonder what it's like to be loved by you

- 𝘞𝘰𝘯𝘥𝘦𝘳 𝘉𝘺 𝘚𝘩𝘢𝘸𝘯 𝘔𝘦𝘯𝘥𝘦𝘴 ___________________________________

Nadia carefully unwrapped the gauze wrap around her arm seeing her wound was fairly healed from the last time she had seen it. The bacta spray worked wonders and she threw out the wrap no longer needing it. It had been five days since they saved the child from Nevarro. They simply floated in space trying to find a better planet after the next to be safe. The ship shook violent and Nadia frowned only to see the child had flicked a button causing Din to quickly grab him away.

" And now you are going to sit with me." She said taking the child from Din so he could focus on driving the Razor Crest." You just like touching anything, don't you?"

" Sorgan." Din spoke causing her to look over to him." Looks like there's no star port, no industrial centers, no population density. Real backwater skug hole. Which means it's perfect for us."

She nodded her head," It sounds like a great place."

" You ready to lay low and stretch your legs for a couple of months, you little whomp rat?" Din teased playing with the child's hand while Nadia faked a gasp.

" Hey, we can call him a whomp rat, but not to his face." She said covering one of his large ears.

Din shook his head turning back to the controls," Nobody's gonna find us here." He said when she nodded her head.

" I trust you."

The words were simple, but some how it made Din beam with pride that she said it. She trusted him. A bounty hunter. Of all things she had every right to not trust him, but she did and it made him happy to know it. He drove down to the planet of Sorgan seeing how it was mostly green with a few patches of blue for swamps. When they entered the atmosphere, Nadia's eyes widen at the greenery the planet had to offer. Trees grew everywhere with wild animals running down below and small parts of water appearing.

" Wow." She gasped amazed how every planet they went to was so different from the next.

Din landed the Razor Crest on perfect land making sure it wasn't going to cave in by the weak marshes before turning off all the engines and power.

" Listen. Nadia and I are gonna go out there and I'm gonna look around." He spoke to the child who stared up at them with big eyes." It shouldn't take too long. Now, don't touch anything. I'll find us some lodging, then I'll come back for you. You stay right here. You stay. Don't move. You understand?"

The child simply cooed causing Din to give him two thumbs up.

" Great." He said opening the back door and climbing down the ladder with Nadia.

" Are you sure he's going to be okay here alone?" She worried looking back up the ladder.

" We're not going to take that long." Din answered passing her a blaster." Here, I want you to carry this."

She frowned," I thought Soren was peaceful."

" This is for just in case." He said walking down to punch the ramp button.

She walked by his side watching the ramp in the back open and slowly let down the ramp they would need to walk down. A coo was heard by her side and she frowned along with Din turning to see by his right leg, was the child smiling up at him.

Din sighed shaking his head," Oh, what the hell? Come on."

She smiled at the child walking after Din down the ramp and looking to the planet of Sorgan around her. The forest unfolded in front of her. The ground is surprisingly springy under her feet and she turned away from Din and look up into the canopy of trees ahead of them.

Din studied the screen on his wrist unit and looks up to scan the perimeter. "The atmosphere here is safe to breathe," He explains. "The planet supports a variety of life forms suitable for consumption. It's an ideal environment for human inhabitation."

"And for the kid?"

He pointed behind her, " You tell me."

Nadia turned around in time to see the child toddling off towards the forest. A cool breeze whispers through the trees and fluffs the gray hairs on his wrinkled head. He glances back at Din, as if waiting for permission, and Din returns his look with a nod. The kid sets off into the forest with the two of them in tow.

"Who lives here?" She asked walking by Din's side while keeping an eye on the child,"Just farmers?"

Din shakes his head. "Krill farmers, but also foragers, spotchka brewers, people looking for a hideout. There isn't much industry here, but it's a good place to survive by your own means."

The child laughs loudly running straight to a a bush in excitement. Rattling one of the bushes, kaleidoscope of butterflies came flying out surprising the three. Nadia stood in awe having the butterflies flutter all around her in different colors that amazed her mind. She held her hands out in amazement having some land on her skin while some landed in her hair giving her a giggle or two. Din stared at her beauty captivated by the nature around her, her eyes sparkled that he couldn't help, but to just stare at him. One by one the butterflies left and once they did, she realized he hadn't move an inch, just continued to stare.

" What?"

" Nothing." He coughed turning red.

She looked back to the butterflies in the distance," What was that?"

" A butterfly." He answered tilting his head slowly and walking down the path again.

They didn't walk much further until they came to a small little village that had amazing smells. Nadia wasn't hungry, but she could tell the child was with the way his little feet picked up when smelling all the food from inside. Din walked in first with her and the child close behind seeing the small little diner was safe with people simply staring at the sight of a Mandalorian. Din knew Nadia didn't pick up on it. How could she? He did, however, noticing a woman by the end of the diner with a tattoo of a shock trooper. He carefully kept his eye on the woman taking a seat at one of the tables helping the child into his own seat.

" Welcome, travelers." A woman greeted wiping her hands on her apron." Can I interest you in anything?"

" Bone broth, for the little one."

" Oh, well, you're in luck. I just took down a grinjer, so there's plenty. Can I interest you in a porringer of broth as well?" She questioned.

Din looked over to Nadia, who shook her head causing him to look back at the woman with the same answer.

" Just the one."

" Very well." The woman said about to walk away when Din stopped her.

" That one over there." He said nudging his head over to the shock trooper." When did she arrive?"

" I've seen her here for the last week or so."

" What's her business here?"

" Business? Oh, well, there's not much business in Sorgan, so I can't say." The woman said, when Din threw a couple of more credits onto the table for her to take as bait." She doesn't strike me as a log runner. Well, thank you, sir. I will get that broth to you as soon as possible, and I will throw in a flagon of spotchka just for good measure. I will be right back with that."

Nadia smiled to the woman as she left and once out of sight, she turned to Din confused.

" Why did you ask her about the woman?"

" Because..." He explained when he turned back to the shock trooper, noticing she was gone.

He stood up instantly almost hitting the table with his beskar looking around the diner for any sight of her.

" Keep an eye on the kid."

" What?" Nadia questioned already on her feet too, following him." No, I'm coming with you."

She noticed the same woman about to cook the broth and pointed over to the kid that sat at the table clueless.

" Keep an eye on the kid."

The woman was confused, but both gave her no chance to protest or speak leaving the diner in a hurry. Once outside, the coast was clear. Nadia could see no signs of the woman, but she knew behind his helmet, Din could, so she followed right behind him through the huts of the small town until he stop abruptly. She opened her mouth about to ask what happened when, from the corner of her eye, she noticed the woman about to collide with them.

" Mando!" She yelled getting a sharp kick right to her lip that sent her barreling backwards until she fell to the ground.

The pain was instant and she hissed in pain touching her lip and feeling blood. Din became alert dodging a punch quickly before punching the shock trooper in the side surprising her. All Nadia could make out was that they were both strong throwing punches and kicks back and forth like it was nothing. When the shock trooper threw Din to the ground, Nadia quickly sprung to her feet and punched  the shock troopers back to distract her, but it didn't last long before she was on the ground.

The air was knocked from her lungs and she groaned at the pain while Din and her went at it again. In a blink of an eye, they both pulled their blasters panting from the fight, but sipping caught their attention. All three turned to their side seeing the child drinking his broth watching the fight with amusement.

" You want some soup?" Din asked causing Nadia to stare at him like a mad man.

" Seriously?"

Apparently, he was getting off the ground along with the shock trooper and Nadia back into the small little diner like nothing had happened. The shock trooper did the same thing, introducing herself as Cara Dune to the two. Nadia wasn't the same. She sat grumpily in her seat only some ice to her lip that was throbbing like crazy.

" Let me see." Din said moving Nadia's hand that was holding the ice seeing the corner of her lip was tinted red with a small cut swelled up.

" Things swelling up like a balloon." Cara commented getting a pout from Nadia.

" Yeah, thanks."

Cara laughed looking over to Din," Saw most of my action mopping up after Endor. Mostly Ex-Imperial Warlords." She said continuing with her introduction." They wanted it fast and quiet. They'd send us in on the drop ships. No support, just us. Then when the Imps were gone, the politics started. We were peacekeepers, protecting delegates, suppressing riots. Not what I signed up for."

Din nodded," How'd you end up here?"

" Let's just call it an early retirement." She taking a drink of her soup." Look, I knew you were Guild. I figured you had a fob on me. That's why I came at you so hard."

"  Yeah, that's what I figured."

" Well, this has been a real treat." She teased punching Nadia's arm lightly." but unless you wanna go another round, one of us is gonna have to move on, and I was here first."

With that Cara walked away with her soup and out of the diner without another word or warning.

Din turned to the child," Well, looks like this planet's taken."

" Just like that?" Nadia questioned baffled." We get taken down by her and we just have to leave?"

Din nodded his head already getting out of his seat." We don't want to overstep or have people track her and lead to us or the other way around. Keep putting ice." He said lightly bumping her side to go.

" So what now?" She grumbled getting up and following the two back to the ship.

Din didn't have an answer. He was sure Sorgan would be a nice planet for them to stay at for a while, but he was wrong and now he had no idea where their next planet would lead them to. All he knew when we went back to the ship was he had to fix the ship a bit before they departed. It gave him time to think while Nadia stayed inside with the child taking care of him and her lip. Placing bacta on it, he could tell it was slowly healing and he could guess it was healed by now since hours had passed and the sun had set. Once the child was asleep, Nadia heated the soup they got from the diner and came down the ramp to give it to Din.

" Hey, you haven't eaten all day." She said smiling at him.

" I'm not hungry." He said, but she gave him a look that told him she wasn't going to leave until he had some.

Placing his tools down, he grabbed the soup from her hand and stirred it a bit before tilting his helmet a bit up to be able to drink. Quickly, Nadia turned away from him staring up at the sky that it caused him to laugh out how fast she had done it.

" I didn't take my helmet completely off."

" Just a precaution." She replied.

Since she looked at the sky to distract herself, she got immerse with how the Sorgan sky looked at night. There were zero clouds in sight giving a beautiful sight to the stars in the sky. She couldn't believe how many stars there were out there lighting up the galaxy like a beautiful painting. Din stared at her and the way her eyes lit up with the stars. She was amazed that it made her glow like the stars were bouncing right off of her. He never seen someone look so beautiful simply looking at the sky. Nadia felt eyes on her and turned to him growing self conscious.

" What?"

Din blushed under his helmet," Nothing." He lied setting down the soup to get back to work.

" It has to be something." She pressed.

Din knew he couldn't get out of this one. He could walk around the ship to get back to work, but she would follow him and he knew this.

" It's just the way your eyes light up when you look at the things around you." He admitted truthfully beating around the bush on how he found her beautiful when doing so.

" It's cause I never seen them before." She explained looking back to the sky." Clouds covered Arvala-7. I never seen the stars like this before. It sparkles the sky and lights it up."

It made Din happy that she was finally getting to see the world. That he was seeing her simple reactions to the little stuff like a butterfly or the night sky. He didn't know why it made him happy, but it just did and he was content with it. A light moved from the shadows and the two turned to see men on a wagon wheel right towards them more scared to approach then they should have been.

" Stay behind me." Din warned placing his tools down and walking over to the wagon.

" Excuse me, sir." The one man called nervously.

" There something I can help you with?"

" Uh, yeah. Raiders."

" We have money." The other one blurted out more confidently.

Din partly ignored them going back to fixing the ship," So, you think I'm some kinda mercenary?"

" You are a Mandalorian, right?"

" Or at least wearing Mandalorian armor. That is Mandalorian armor, right?"

" Yeah, you're right." Nadia said causing the two men to smile.

" See? I told you." The one quiet man whispered to his friend following after Din." Sir, I've read a lot about your people...Tribe. If half of what I read is true..."

" We have money." The confident one repeated.

" How much?"

" Everything we have, sir. Our whole harvest was stolen"

" Krill." The one corrected." We're krill farmers.

" We brew spotchka. Our whole village chipped in."

Nadia smiled at the two men seeing they were determined for the Mandalorian's help that even through nerves, they were brave and wanted to help protect their village. Din on the other hand looked down to the small pouch and shook his head.

" It's not enough."

" Mando." Nadia remarked sternly seeing how dismissive he was being.

" Are you sure? You don't even know what the job is."

" I know it's not enough. Good luck." Din bedded continuing to walk away from the two men while Nadia followed feeling guilty.

" This is everything we have. We'll give you more after the next harvest." The man promised, but Din pressed the ramp button causing the doors to hiss so Nadia and him could board.

" Come on." Din spoke to her already getting onto the ramp.

She lightly nodded turning to the two men giving a light smile wishing there was something she could do to help, but Din was the captain of this journey and given they were on the run, maybe he knew best to get off the planet.

" Took us the whole day to get here" The one man spoke in defeat." Now we have to ride back with no protection to the middle of nowhere."

Din's ears perked up instantly," Where do you live?"

" On a farm. Weren't you listening?"

" Now's not the time to sass him." Nadia warned lightly seeing something they said had grabbed his attention.

The man repeated himself more nicely," We're farmers."

" In the middle of nowhere?" Din quoted earning some nods." You have lodging?"

" Yeah. Absolutely." One answered causing Din to nod his head.

" Good. Come up and help." He said heading back into the ships vessels, but the three did not move wondering what had happened.

" What does that mean?" The one asked causing Nadia to smile.

" You might just have a deal."

While packing the wagon with the things Din, Nadia, and the child would need, she learned the two farmers names were Caben and Stoke who were sent by the rest of their village to ask for help. The way they spoke about their village made her excited to go learning they were peaceful people that hunted for fish in the marshes and made great spotchka. Nadia placed the sleeping child in the corner of the wagon seeing Din make his way over to Stoke.

" I'm gonna need one more thing. Give me those credits."

Stoke nodded his head giving the bag to the Mandalorian, who nodded his head back heading out to the woods. Nadia frowned quickly jogging over to him and following wherever he was going.

" Where are you going?"

" Getting backup." He answered.

It didn't take long before she smelled a small fire and laid her eyes on Cara Dune sleeping on the floor. Din threw the credits onto the ground causing Cara to instantly raise her blaster in alarm.

" Ready for round two?" Din asked causing Nadia to shake her head.

" Seriously?"

" She's strong."

" Yeah, I know. Have you seen my lip?" Nadia said pointing to where it was a faint red still.

Cara laughed getting off the floor and grabbing the credits," Come on. We're going to have fun." She said messing with Nadia's hair.

Din lightly smirked at the face Nadia had made lightly bumping her arm for them to follow. Caben and Stoke set the coordinates back to their village while the four sat in the back of the wagon debriefing Cara about the plans they had when reaching the village.

"So, we're basically running off a band of Raiders for lunch money?"

" They're quartering us in the middle of nowhere. Last I checked, that's a pretty square deal for somebody in your position." Din offered." Worst case scenario, you tune up your blaster. Best case, we're a deterrent. I can't imagine there's anything living in these trees that an ex-shock trooper couldn't handle."

Cara nodded looking over to Nadia," How did you end up with him?"

" What?" She stuttered out.

" How did a weakling like you end up with a Mandalorian?"

" I'm not a weakling." Nadia defended hurt by what Cara said."  And my name is Lexie."

" Please. Your hit back there felt like a love tap." Cara teased.

" She's my helper. Takes care of the kid." Din interjected seeing the smirk on Cara's face.

" And you?"

Din nodded," Yeah."

Nadia smiled lightly hearing she helped him, but Cara had took it a different way.

" Didn't take you as the freaky type, weakling."

" Not like that." The two had said at the same time turning red.

" And I'm not a weakling." Nadia repeated.

Cara rolled her eyes getting comfortable," Whatever. Goodnight weakling."

It was easy to say Nadia hated her new nickname and disliked their new companion even more. Din lightly elbowed her side for comfort.

" Ignore her."

" Going to be hard." She muttered crossing her arms over her chest." Weakling isn't exactly a good name.

" You had my back when we first met her."

" I got knocked down." She reminded.

" But you got back up." Din pointed out seeing the smile slowly grow on her face." Takes guts."

She knew Din was just saying things to get her to feel better, but she also knew he wouldn't have done it for nothing. He mean't his words and it made her feel good inside that he saw her as a companion and a helper. With a smile on her face, she got comfortable herself on the wagon ignoring Cara's words.

" You're welcome."

[luasworkshop]

There is someone bent over a desk in the little space at the top of the stairs under the window. They start when they hear you come up, looking up form their work on something involving a lot of tiny gears and springs.

???: O-oh… I’m sorry, there’s nothing up here. Asra can help you in the shop… or are you here to see Aleis?

More on Lua's artificing below the cut:

Lua has a mind for clockwork and other mechanical contrivances and skill at imbuing these with spells and other magical effects. The work they produce stands on its own as fully functioning once it’s complete, and has fascinating abilities because of it’s magical nature. If one were to consider Lua in the modern era – they would be respected as some sort of robotics engineer. As it is, they create work which tends to be beautiful, esoteric, and serve some sort of strange function. Lua’s primary income stream is from private commissions on this work – it is complex and time consuming to produce and their rates are high (Nadia is a repeat customer these days). The practical work they produce include things like astrolabes that can project an entire moving star map, lockpicks that reveal what is happening inside the lock, automota which can serve as two-way communication devices, and so on. The more artistic work they produce can be more delightfully frivolous – a hand organ that that plays in colors, jewelry that can turn into a little creature and run around, music boxes that change their melody based on mood, and on. Combining their skills with their spouse’s skills with miniatures has made for some decidedly fascinating and weird results. Because of all of this – Lua is an impeccable draftsman, and is generally seen with a shoulder bag full of drawings and drawing equipment (they do not usually bring their pieces to work on when traveling/visiting unless they know they will have a works space where they set things up and leave them undisturbed, however they will gladly plan out future projects and refine ideas wherever they can set down a piece of paper – and draw silly or entertaining things at times).

Lua is also adept at repairing non-magical clocks, music boxes, and other automata only using magic as a means to assist (rather than permanently repair) the object (such as magnification, steadying their hand, creating light, etc.) They tend to take on fewer of these projects as they prefer to imbue or work with items which are magical in nature. They are not an all-purpose expert (as some automata, even non-magical, are incredibly involved), but they can certainly get a pocket watch going again with no trouble.

Their work never really mimics modern technology – these are esoteric, magical items, not ‘fantasy cell phones.’ They do sometimes demonstrate what may seem like anachronisms (precise knowledge of astronomy, chemistry, physics, etc.) but these are things based on Lua’s studies, travels, and personal experience.

Lua was initially very shy of Nadia - who seems to them perfectly put together and always competent and capable (a lot to take in for Lua who is fine until they overthink things, remember they are just a squishy bag of feelings, and make themselves anxious.) But the two of them can go on for hours together discussing various mechanical contrivances both magical and not - happily bouncing ideas off of each other.

Lua and Salim’s magic, when it comes to artificing, is very similar (although Lua’s tends to involve a bit more clockwork) and the two of them can either work extremely well together or drive each other crazy. Aisha finds it funny that Salim will try to ‘dad’ at Lua and Aleis who are both not much younger than him (especially if he and Lua are in disagreement about something technical). Honestly he does outmatch Lua in experience, which can drive them a little crazy (the worst part about being ‘dad’ed at is when ‘dad’ is right). Aisha’s familiarity with her husband’s work means that she is good with synergizing with Lua’s as well. Overall (despite being ‘dad’ed at) Lua and Aleis both get along very well with Asra’s parents and are so glad to have them back in his (and now in their) life.

Love Will Find a Way: Chapter 32

While stretched out on the examination table, Alexa twirled the small sterling silver band that was wrapped around her finger, tiny diamonds surrounded its outer core with three medium sized ones as its centerpiece.

She smiled softly as they sparkled via the lighting in the room, meanwhile, the events of the other day, when Rafael proposed marriage, still resonated within; slowly, her train of thought deepened. Alexa envisioned a small gathering with only close friends, especially Olivia, who had become like a sister to her ever since the day they met, and of course Rafael’s mother Lucia, who overtime became more of a mother to Alexa than her own.

The wardrobe for the affair would be traditional on the part of the groom, however, the form of Alexa’s dress would consist of something simple but elegant with a touch of class, as she continued to lay out the details of the upcoming wedding; the faint sound of a door being opened broke her concentration. The focus quickly shifted to the young woman clad in a lab coat holding up a clipboard.

“Hello, so how are we doing today?”

“Well I’m about to push a human bowling ball through my pelvis and I can’t see my feet anymore, so all in all I’m doing alright”

The doctor chuckled as she walked towards the table, “Well I’ve got your test results and overall you and the baby are doing exceptionally well, blood pressure is a little high but it’s nothing serious”

“Well that’s good”

She took a moment to look around the room and found that Alexa was shy of one person, “Will your husband be joining us today?”

Alexa’s face softened, “He’s not my husband…yet, but he said he’d try to make it…he’s in the middle of a very important case…”

Suddenly, the door creaked open at that very moment, Alexa and the doctor looked forward to the person that appeared through the doorway, her face lit up when it was revealed to be Rafael.

“I’m sorry I’m late, I tried to be here as fast as I could,” he joined Alexa at the opposite end of the table where he placed a small peck on her forehead, she reached for his hand, to which he was more than happy to interlock with.

“It’s ok, the doctor was going over my test results. She says the baby’s doing fine but that my blood pressure was a little high”

“Is that something we need to worry about?”

The doctor chimed in, “No, it’s pretty common among pregnancies, she just needs to maintain a healthy diet and avoid any kind of stress” Rafael nodded as he held Alexa’s hand, the young woman stepped towards the sonogram machine where she informed them that she was going to check the development of the baby.

During its initial setup, the ultrasound gel was dispensed onto Alexa’s stomach, once the machine was up and ready, the ultrasound wand was pressed on top of her rounded figure. As the wand spread out the conductive gel, Alexa and Rafael watched the monitor, within a few minutes, an image formed…one of their fully developed, yet to be born daughter.

The grip on Alexa’s hand tightened as they continued to gaze upon their beautiful child, after the doctor made a few notations on the clipboard, she concluded that per her analysis that little Nadia was due any day now. Before, she exited the room, the young woman handed Alexa a paper towel to wipe the gel from her belly then passed pictures of their daughter. When they were alone, she straightened her blouse and let out a small breath, just then; Rafael’s warm hand began rubbing against her back…with that, their eyes linked.

“You ok?”

“Yeah, I can’t believe that any day now…we’ll be bringing a new life into this world”

“I know,” he leaned forward and pressed a soft kiss upon her lips.

They checked out at the reception desk, Alexa was scheduled to be induced a few days after her due date, the couple walked out the front door and headed towards the parking lot. Halfway towards the SUV a man’s voice called out:

“Mr. Barba”

Alexa and Rafael turned around to find an older gentleman, from the look of things, appeared to be the same age as Rafael if not older; he wore a navy-blue suit with a trench coat draped over it. He stepped towards them, but while his face expressed friendliness, something about him sent shivers up Alexa’s spine. She looked upon Rafael, whose joyous expression faltered into one that masked the feeling of dread and aggravation that ran deep beneath his veins, it was then her attention shifted back to the mysterious stranger in their midst.

“Excuse me, but do we know you?”

“Barba…aren’t you going to introduce me to your fiancé?”

Rafael turned towards Alexa and calmly explained: “Alexa, this is Robert Davalos…my boss”

Davalos extended his hand only to be met with a sense of distrust disguised by a small nod on the part of Alexa, the older man grinned as his hand slipped into his trench coat’s right pocket, then the focus was redirected back to Rafael.

“I noticed you leaving the doctor’s office, is everything alright with the little one?”

“She’s fine, thank you” Rafael responded curtly.

He raised up his hands and said, “Now there’s no need to get all defensive, I’m just expressing genuine concern over a fellow employee’s loved ones…nothing wrong with that is there?”

“Why are you here,” Alexa steadily grew uneasy at the way the situation was escalating.

“I was hoping that the father of your child and I could have a little chat”

“I’m sorry…but we have a busy day ahead of us, now if you’ll excuse us…” the two of them turned on their heels to walk away until…

“You know I was quite impressed with the way you handled your most recent case”

The comment seemed to stop Rafael dead in his tracks.

“Even after I asked you nicely to walk away…you stood your ground. I mean that really struck a chord with me, reminded me a lot of when I was an up and coming DA…I aspired to make a difference in the world and had a big ego to boot. Until one day I realized that to get ahead, you have to play the game…and I’m afraid it’s a lesson that you might have to learn the hard way”

After that last sentence, Alexa whirled around and gave him a look that shot daggers through his eyes.

“Are you threatening him?!”

As soon as she began to charge forward, Rafael put his hand up on her chest to prevent her from inflicting any kind of bodily harm on either party, the response towards this display of aggression was a snicker from the amused older gentlemen.

“Careful now, wouldn’t want to go into labor early, now would we?”

“Alexa, go wait in the car”

“Why, I’m not afraid of him”

“Alexa, just please do as I say”

She refused to let this man intimidate her, but ultimately decided to heed Rafael’s insistence and climbed into the SUV, Rafael shifted Davalos’ direction back to him without wanting to land a punch at the smug little grin he was showing.

“My, my, she’s quite the little spitfire, isn’t she?”

“I’m going to say this once…you leave me and my family alone, do we understand each other”

“Mr. Barba…I don’t think you’re in any kind of position to make threats, especially when you have more important matters to attend to. It was a pleasure meeting Alexa, hopefully I’ll receive an invite to the wedding…until then, enjoy the rest of your day Mr. Barba and be safe out there”

He winked then walked away and disappeared among the vast rows of cars in his wake, while in the SUV, Rafael turned on the engine and pulled out of the parking space. During the ride, back to the brownstone, silence enveloped the vehicle, but when they made entry; Rafael made haste towards the kitchen where he grabbed a bottle of scotch and a small glass.

He poured the amber liquid and brought it over to the living room along with the bottle, then placed it on the coffee table, Alexa trailed behind and sat across from him on the couch; Rafael picked up the glass and gulped it down in one shot then poured himself another drink. He doused the second and third one in quick succession, as he was about to go for a fourth, Alexa set her hand on the side of the bottle and slid it from his grasp.

“That’s enough”

Rafael sighed as he slumped backward, she looked at him saddened, it pained her to see him shaken up especially by a man with delusions of grandeur and drunk on power. Her hand reached over and palmed his knee, from the corner of his eye, he met her sympathetic stare at his haggard appearance.

“Don’t let that asswipe get to you”

Rafael faced Alexa, and with a serious look, he grabbed a hold of both of her hands and declared, “You know that I would never let anything happen to you, right?”

“I know”

Alexa rested her head on Rafael’s chest, his arm wrapped protectively on top of her stomach, she held onto him just as tightly. His lips peppered her forehead with soft kisses, however, on the surface, he put on a brave face but Davalos’ words replayed over and over internally, for the first time in his life; Rafael felt a twinge of fear at the pit of his stomach.

Suddenly, it was as if she could read his thoughts, Alexa tilted her head upwards to where their eyes met then the tips of her fingers grazed along his cheek as a sign of comfort.

“Nothing’s going to happen…not when I’m here…safe in your arms”

“I love you…you and Nadia are my whole world, if anything were to happen to either of you…I don’t know what I would do”

“Listen to me, that prick doesn’t know who he’s messing with…you are the strongest, bravest man I’ve ever known. Plus, you have one of the elite squads of the NYPD at your side…trust me, we’ll rest easy”

Rafael felt more at ease from the sound of her words, his face was reanimated with new life as he smiled, their lips became one filled with unsurpassed bliss and warmth. Alexa lowered her head back on to his chest, the beating of his heart lulled her into a deep sleep, not long after; Rafael’s lids began to weigh and within a matter of seconds, his mind drifted off to a restful slumber.

Chapter Summary: One relationship progresses, while another comes to its end.

Kaia

“STRIKE! Suck it, Kaia!” Victoria shouted as her bowling ball struck all ten pins.

It was Thursday night at the local bowling alley — humorously-titled Split Happens — and my friends and I were hanging out for College Student Night. Nadia initially had the idea for me, her, Steve, and Hayden to double date, but, then I invited Vic and Drake, and it ended up being a group gathering. We invited Sloane, but she had other plans.

Hayden returned to our seats holding two drinks and a basket of fries. He set the fries on the seat in between us and handed me my drink. We’d gone out a few times since the night of the homecoming dance. For our first date, he took me to brunch at this cute little café off-campus. We talked for hours about everything from our favorite professors to our personal lives. He also told me stories about his dog, Dipper. We’d gone out three times after that, each date ending with a hug or a peck on the cheek, and a promise to call or text the next day.

“Your roommate is funny,” he said, grabbing some fries from the basket before shoving them in his mouth. I turned to where Victoria was sitting and saw her eyes glued to Drake’s backside as he bent over to pick up his bowling ball.

“She’s something. I got really lucky in the roommate department.”

He nodded. “Mine sucks. Wanna trade?”

“Ha! Not after the stories you’ve told me. I’m lucky Vic only brings Drake to the room when I’m not there. And no overnights, thank the gods.”

“Well, at least she respects your personal space. I found some lacy underwear in my bed last week. And I know they weren’t mine. Red is totally not my color.”

I laughed and reached for a handful of fries at the same time he did. Our hands brushed and I almost dropped mine at the contact. He looked down at the basket, then back up at me, and smiled as he popped the fries in his mouth. His tongue darted out to lick the granules of salt from his lips, and my eyes followed the movement. The two of us stared at each other until we were interrupted by Nadia slumping down in her chair next to me.

“You’re up, Kaia,”  she sighed.

I set my drink down and walked toward the ball return. Finding the pink and white marble ball, I slipped my thumb, middle, and ring fingers into the finger holes, hefted the ball up, and walked up to the foul line.

I stared up at the scoreboard and surveyed my status. It was the tenth frame and I was only six points behind Victoria, so I just needed to knock seven pins down and I’d beat her. We started the game out friendly, but she let her competitive streak get the best of her, and it ended up getting chippy towards the end. Naturally, Steve was smoking all of us. It was stupid how athletically gifted he was. Hayden was in second, followed by Drake, Victoria, then me. Nadia brought up the rear, but she didn’t seem to mind. She was too focused on swapping spit with Steve once her turn was up.

I pulled the ball close to my chest and lined up my shot. Inhale. Exhale. I swung my arm back, before propelling the ball forward and releasing it. It rolled down the lane, teetering towards the gutter. I squatted down on my haunches as the ball rolled down the lane, waving my hands as if my psychic powers could redirect the ball back towards the pins. The ball reached the pins and clipped the sixth and tenth ones, causing them to wobble, before toppling over and taking the ninth pin with them. I groaned. Shit. I had two more balls to get at least four pins in this frame.

Behind me, Victoria giggled. “I got this in the bag,” she loudly proclaimed. I whipped around and narrowed my eyes in her direction as she squeezed Drake’s arm and pressed a kiss to his cheek.

“Don’t celebrate too soon. I still have two more balls this frame,” I said as I walked back to the return.

From the corner of my eye, I caught Hayden watching me. I turned my head towards him and we locked eyes. He smiled and took a sip of his soda.

“Any advice?” I asked.

He stood up and stalked towards me, his massive frame shadowing my much smaller one. He guided me towards the lane and stood behind me, positioning my body.

“The first thing you want to do is square your shoulders,” he said, placing one hand on each of my shoulders, straightening my posture. The touch of his hands burned through the thin fabric of my t-shirt.  “Then, when you go to release, keep your backswing moderately high, it will give you a modest ball rotation and your release will be smoother.” He dragged his hand down the back of my arm to my elbow, sending goosebumps all over my body. He hooked his fingers in the crook of my arm and pulled my arm back to mime the motion.

“Also, try to rotate your wrist clockwise. This will cause the ball to hook in the opposite direction so you don’t sink it in the gutter,” he said, wrapping his large hands around my tiny wrist, and rotating it. His fingers brushed the underside of my wrist ever so gently and I sucked in a quick breath.

“O-okay! I think I got it,” I stuttered, pulling my hand from his grasp. I slipped my fingers in the grips of the ball and narrowed my eyes at the seven remaining pins. I tried to ignore Hayden’s burning gaze behind me as I lined up my shot and released my ball down the lane. Everyone in our group fell silent as the ball made its slow (okay, maybe it wasn’t that slow, but it sure felt like it) descent down the lane towards the remaining seven pins. I heard Victoria gasp as the ball struck the front pin dead center and took out the remaining pins.

When the pin sweep dropped and swept away the discarded pins, I whipped around and leaped into Hayden’s arms. “You’re a genius!”

He chuckled and squeezed me against him. “What do you mean? That was all you! You kicked those pins’ asses.” He set me back down and I ran over and high-fived Steve, Nadia, and Drake. I plopped down next to Victoria and she rolled her eyes and held up a hand for a high-five, smirking as our palms connected.

“Yeah, yeah. You got me.” She looked over at Hayden, who was talking with Steve about gods knows what. “So, how’s it going with you two?”

“Things are good. We’re taking it slow. Getting to know each other. I really like him. He’s funny. And so cute. How’s everything with you and Drake?”

She visibly blushed, and I reached over to grip her forearm. “Vic! Tell me EVERYTHING!”

“He’s amazing. We’re together almost every day, and the ones we aren’t, we talk on the phone every night. I’m crazy about him, Kaia. Dare I say, I might be in L-word.”

Victoria and Drake had been seeing each other for about two months and it warmed my heart to hear that she was head over heels for him. I smiled and pulled her in for a hug. “Oh, Vic! I’m so happy for you. You deserve to be happy.” I pulled back and noticed her eyes were shining with unshed tears. “What’s wrong?”

“Nothing. It’s just that saying those words out loud, it feels real.” She looked away from me and I followed her line of sight to see her staring at Drake lovingly. She quickly wiped her eyes and stood up from her seat. “Alright. Enough emotions. You guys wanna play another game?”

“I’m up for it if everyone else is,” I replied. The rest of our group agreed and we set up for another game. When it was all said and done, Steve won (again) followed by Drake, and Hayden. Victoria ended up finishing two pins ahead of me, with Nadia once again bringing up the rear. We gathered our coats and returned our shoes to the rental. As we stepped out of the alley, the wind picked up. I tugged my jacket tighter against me. These late-October temps were pretty unpredictable and I was thankful I brought a heavier jacket.

I waved goodbye to my friends as Hayden wrapped an arm around my shoulders and guided me to his car. He opened the door for me and I winked at him as I slipped into the passenger’s seat. I watched as he jogged around the back of the car and climbed in the driver’s side.

“You hungry? Wanna go grab a bite before I drop you back off at your dorm?”

“Sure,” I replied. He nodded then fired up the engine and pulled out of the parking lot.

“Did you have fun tonight?” I asked.

He turned slightly, keeping his eyes on the road. “I did. Your friends are fun.”

I smiled. “I’m glad you said that. I was worried about how you’d get along with them. They can be a little much. Especially my cousin and my roommate.”

He laughed. “Your cousin is a trip! And her boyfriend seems nice. Your roommate, on the other hand...”

I turned in my seat. “Why? What did she say to you?”

“Nothing bad. But she cornered me near the restrooms and asked me what my intentions with you were.”

“And what did you tell her?” I asked, amused.

“I just told her that I wanted to get to know you and see where things went. My intentions are pure. Nothing inappropriate. Yet.” He laughed and wiggled his eyebrows.

I smirked and shook my head as we drove. A few minutes later, we pulled up in the McDermots drive-thru. I ordered a McBurger while Hayden got the Wild-Style Double McDermot Deluxe burger. We sat in the parking lot and ate our food in comfortable silence.

When Hayden finished eating, he balled up his sandwich wrapper and turned to me. “What are you doing this weekend?”

“Well, midterms are almost over, so I’m definitely catching up on sleep, but I can make time to see you. What did you have in mind?” I asked, throwing my wrapper in the take-out bag.

He smiled. “Well, we could go check out that new Keanu Reeves movie that hits theaters tomorrow if you like action movies.”

“Yeah, that sounds good. Text me this weekend and we’ll play it by ear.”

He nodded and put the car in gear, then pulled out of the parking lot and headed back to campus. We chatted about midterms for the rest of the ride. When he pulled into the dorm parking lot, we exited the car and he walked me to my room.

“So, I’ll see you in class tomorrow,” I said as I unlocked my door.

I swung it open and stepped over the threshold of my room then turned back to him. He leaned one arm on the doorframe, staring at me with those dark eyes. “Looking forward to it.”

We stared at each other for several beats, then he leaned in and pressed a searing kiss to my lips. I froze at first, not sure how to respond, but then gave in to the kiss. I gripped his biceps to steady myself as the kiss grew deeper. After what felt like hours, he broke the kiss and stepped back. Both of us stared at each other as we tried to catch our breaths.

“Sorry. I had to do that,” he said.

“Don’t apologize. It was nice,” I replied.

He smiled and cupped my cheek in his palm. “See you,” he said, then strode down the hallway towards the elevator.

I slipped into my room and shut the door, leaning against the back of it. I brought my fingers up to my lips, still feeling his kiss. I couldn't lie, I did like it. Almost as much as I liked the one Damien sprung on me at homecoming.

What the... Why was I thinking about him? Things with Hayden were never going to progress if I kept carrying a torch for Damien. I groaned and flung myself onto my bed. I was in deep shit.

***

Damien

I walked in the door of my childhood home and sighed. I loved coming here. It made me feel like I was whole. I missed home. Even before my dad passed away, I made an effort to come back at least once a month. More, if needed. Stepping aside, I let Alana walk in front of me and guided her toward the living room. The smell of empanadillas wafted through the house as my mother’s voice rang out from the kitchen. 

“Is that you, mijo?”

“Yeah, Mama! Alana and I are here.”

She bustled out of the kitchen, wiping her hands on her apron, then took my face in her hands. She pulled me down to her height and kissed my cheeks. “My boy! So good to see you.” 

She then turned to Alana and her eyes lit up. “Hello, dear. How are you?” she asked as she placed a hand on Alana’s shoulder.

“I’m good Mrs. Nazario. How have you been?”

My mother nodded “Good, good. It’s always nice when my children come home.” She patted Alana on the cheek and ushered her to have a seat. “Can I get you something to drink?”

“Water’s fine for me,” Alana replied. 

My mother nodded then motioned for me to follow her to the kitchen. We entered and I spotted my youngest sister, Lucilla, leaning against the counter. “Dames! So nice of you to join us,” she smirked as she bit into an apple. 

I moved forward and wrapped my arm around her neck, pulling her to my body, as I rubbed my knuckles against her scalp. She grunted as the apple she was holding dropped to the floor. “Hi, sis. Did you miss me?”

Lucilla reached over and pinched my sides. I yelped as I released her from my grip. “How could I miss you when you never go away?” she said as she leaned over to pick up the apple. “Did you bring your girlfriend?” 

I looked to Mama, then back to her. “Yeah, she’s in the living room. Can you bring her some water?”

Lucilla rolled her eyes then opened the fridge and grabbed a bottle of water. “That’s fine. We can catch up and talk shit about you.”

I swung my leg out to kick her, but she dodged me at the last second, laughing as she burst through the kitchen door to the living room. My mother chuckled to herself at the interaction. When my sister was out of the room she turned to me, smiling.

“How are you, my boy? School going well?”

I nodded, leaning beside her against the counter as she slipped the next batch of empanadillas into the deep fryer. “Yeah. Just finished midterms. I’m ready to be done already. Just gotta get through the rest of this semester and next.”

She smiled. “I’m so proud of you. Your father would be too. Just hang in there for a few more months. It will all be worth it. How is the internship going?”

“It’s great. I’m loving every minute of it. I think I’m going to pursue a career in Intelligence after graduation.”

Mama’s eyes lit up. “Oh, my boy! That’s so wonderful. I can see it now. My son will have a fancy government job in Washington D.C. I’ll never have to worry about you.”

I wrapped an arm around her shoulder and pulled her in for a hug. I hated hearing that my mother worried about me. Especially when she had her own heartache and my younger sisters to worry about. I wiped a stray tear from her cheek and pressed a kiss to her temple. “Don’t worry about me. I’m going to be alright.”

“I know you will. But it’s my job to worry about you. As long as you’re taking care of yourself.” She pulled the empanadillas from the deep fryer and set them on a towel to cool. Her eyes darted to the kitchen door and she lowered her voice. “Everything alright with...” she jerked her head towards the living room.

I sighed and dragged a hand down my face. “Where do I start?”

My mother wiped her hands on her apron and guided me to the kitchen table. “Sit. Do you want something to drink?”

“Rum if you’ve got it,” I replied. 

She moved over to the cabinet and grabbed the bottle of spiced rum. I smiled. It was my father’s favorite brand. She placed the bottle and two tumblers on the table and took a seat across from me. “Spill, my boy.”

“I don’t know, Mama. It just seems like our whole relationship is toxic. We barely spend time together, and when we do, we argue the whole time. She gets crazy insecure and accuses me of cheating on her just because I hang out with Kaia, and it-”

“Wait...Kaia? Kaia Park?” my mother interrupted.

“Uh, yeah. Why?”

My mother pursed her lips and stared at her hands. “I didn’t want to say anything back then, but I always wondered what happened between you two.”

“Mama, nothing happened between us. She was always too young for me. The last time anything happened was four years ago.” I purposely omitted the incident at homecoming, but my mother knew about the graduation party. She mentioned that Kaia seemed off in the days following, and stopped coming around the house after I left for college. It wasn’t until Nadia told Carina, who told Ma what happened, that she finally put two and two together.

“You were always smitten with that girl, no matter how much you lied to yourself.”

“Mama. It wasn’t like that. We’re best friends,” I said defensively.

“I know better, mijo. I watched you two when you were together. You looked at her like she was the only girl in the room. And she you.” She chuckled and took a sip of her glass. “You two were attached at the hip. I never suspected anything until that summer before your junior year. She came over one time when you weren’t home and your father found her hanging out in that treehouse. When he asked her what she was doing, she said she wanted to be here when you got back. He said he knew at that moment that you weren’t ‘just friends’ in her eyes.”

I swallowed a sip of spiced rum, the liquid burned as it went down. “Maybe so, but that doesn’t mean anything. She had a crush on me. I already knew that. But I never pursued her. She was underage.”

“Understandable. But do you remember your senior year of high school? When that boy she was seeing broke her heart? You went over to his house and threatened to beat him up if he even looked at her again.”

“Yeah, ‘cause she was my best friend and she was hurting,” I said.

My mother shook her head. “Guess how many times I caught you glaring at him while you watched them together? Every time he showed up at her house, you sat on that front porch and stared. If looks could kill, that boy would have dropped dead before he reached the front door.”

I twisted the tumbler in my hand. “I...I don’t know what to say…”

“You don’t have to say anything to me. You need to be honest with yourself, first and foremost. Then, you need to be honest with Kaia.”

The faint sounds of laughter came from the living room. I glanced at the door before turning back to Mama. “Won’t matter. She has a boyfriend. And I have a girlfriend. Who I love. And who’s sitting in the next room.”

My mother cupped my cheek in her palm. “Oh, mijo. You know I love you, and I want you to be happy. But that girl. She does not make you happy. I can see it in your eyes.”

Damn, she was good. How did moms always know what kids didn’t? “I have a lot to think about. But thank you for being there.” I sighed and finished off my rum, then collected both glasses and put them in the dishwasher. 

Mama brushed the hair from my forehead and kissed the top of my head. She put the bottle of rum back in the cabinet and went back to preparing dinner. “Go tell Alana and Lucilla that dinner is almost ready.”

I swung the door open and saw my sister and girlfriend sitting on the sofa, looking through a photo album. A bottle of wine sat open on the coffee table accompanied by two glasses. Alana’s water bottle remained untouched. “Hey! Mama said dinner’s almost ready, so go wash up.” 

Lucilla rose from the couch, rolling her eyes. “Yeah, okay.” She collected the wine bottle and glasses and retreated into the kitchen. 

I turned to look at Alana, who set the photo album down and examined her nails. “Did you and your mom have a nice chat?”

“We did. Were you getting my sister drunk?”

She laughed humorously. “It was one glass, Damien. And she’s not driving anywhere. It will be fine.”

“She’s only 16, babe.” 

I glanced down at the photo album which lay open on the coffee table. Photos of my sisters and me when we were kids filled the pages. I picked up the book and went to close it when one picture caught my eye. It was Nadia, Kaia, Carina, and I. I was maybe 17 at the time. We were sitting on the porch swing outside Kaia’s house. Nadia and Carina sat on the end, making funny faces, while Kaia and I were squished in the middle. My arm was slung around her shoulders, and I was gazing at her. Then, it hit me. I finally saw what my mother was talking about.

“Oh, shit,” I muttered under my breath. I looked up to see Alana eyeing me suspiciously. I opened my mouth to say something when my mother’s voice rang out from the kitchen.

“Dinner’s ready. Come eat!”

Alana turned on her heel and stomped towards the kitchen. I closed the photo album and put it back on the bookshelf behind the sofa. I raked my hand through my hair and made my way towards the kitchen. This was going to be a long dinner.

A few hours later, Alana and I were on our way back to campus. We drove in uncomfortable silence for most of the trip. We were about 10 miles from school when she turned to me, breaking the silence.

“How long have you been in love with her?”

I swallowed. Welp, better to rip off the bandaid now. “I don’t know exactly. I guess I’ve been lying to myself this whole time.”

“And to me…” she trailed off.

“Alana-”

“Don’t, Damien. Okay? Just...don’t. I’m not an idiot. You know, I didn’t want to believe it, but the signs were right in front of me this whole time. The stolen glances. The emotional unavailability. I guess I thought you'd eventually get over whatever it was you felt for her. I’m just sorry that whatever we had wasn’t enough to keep you interested.”

I gripped the steering wheel until my knuckles turned white. “I’m sorry too. To be honest, I knew this relationship was doomed when you turned down my marriage proposal. I think I stuck it out, hoping you’d eventually change your mind. I wish we would have just called it quits then. It would have saved us both a lot of pain.”

She nodded. Neither of us said another word until we pulled into the campus parking lot. She reached out to open the car door, but stopped and turned to me. “For what it’s worth, I did love you. I guess it just wasn’t enough to spend forever together.” She gave me a weak smile, then got out of the car. I watched her walk away, a heavy weight lifted off of my shoulders. When she was out of sight, I got out and made my way to my dorm. 

When I got inside my room, I threw myself on my bed and sighed deeply. I knew breaking up with Alana was the right thing to do, but I still felt like shit about it. I needed to get some things off my chest and there was only one person I wanted to talk to. I pulled my phone from my pocket and thumbed through my contacts until I pulled up her name. I opened the text app and typed out my message.

This is in part to having more time to train his demigod powers.

"Katie Holt? Like the Holt family that's up at Kerberos right now?" Lance asked Hunk.

"Yup! That Holt family." A girl replied, popping up around Lance and scaring him enough to make him jump. "You can both call me Pidge though. It's what my brother calls me."

"I'm Aurora, nice to meet you." Keith shakes her hand, pursing his lips. "Want to go find our engineer and do some bonding exercises!" She asks, her eyes sparkling, a smile wide on her face.

"Uhh What?" Aurora leans in and whispers.

"Want to find Parker and smoke marijuana up on the roof?" Keith laughed a bit nervously.

"You're insane."

"I know, but come on!" Aurora grabs his hand and drags him past Lance, Hunk, and Pidge who are all talking animatedly about how this school year is going to play out but as the two of them pass, Lance notices them and his heart skips a beat.

It's Going to Take Perseverance, but Here Are Three Things the New Rover Will Do When It Gets to Mars

https://sciencespies.com/news/its-going-to-take-perseverance-but-here-are-three-things-the-new-rover-will-do-when-it-gets-to-mars/

It's Going to Take Perseverance, but Here Are Three Things the New Rover Will Do When It Gets to Mars

Early this morning, NASA launched its newest Mars rover, Perseverance. An opportunity like this only comes around every 26 months when Earth and Mars align, so the mission team worked through tight health regulations to ensure the rover launched this year.

NASA first announced the Mars 2020 rover in 2012, just months after Curiosity landed on the Red Planet. And after eight years of careful planning, invention and checking off a high-tech packing list, NASA’s fifth Mars rover was ready for launch. At 7:50 a.m. from Cape Canaveral, the car-sized rover was spirited away on an Atlas V rocket.

In almost seven months, Perseverance will begin its descent to Mars’ surface. Here’s its itinerary when it arrives.

A Quest for Signs of Ancient life

On February 18, 2021, Perseverance will begin its seven-minute descent, taking photos along the way. Once it’s about 25 feet from the surface, a rocket-powered sky crane will lower the rover on a cable until its six wheels meet the ground of Jezero Crater. Research from past rovers already suggests that Mars’ ancient landscape was habitable; Perseverance will search for signs that living things once called it home.

The crater’s circular shape, intersected with the signs erosion from a long-dry river, suggest that it was once a lake, NASA planetary scientist Caleb Fassett tells the New York Times’ Kenneth Chang. The place where the river met the lake over three billion years ago may be the best chance to find signs of ancient life on Mars, and Perseverance is bringing the tools to find out.

The rover is equipped with a microscope and camera to check rocks for the patterns that microbial life would have left behind. Perseverance is also carrying an ultraviolet laser and light sensors named SHERLOC that will analyze samples for hints of organic molecules and minerals. To calibrate its equipment, the rover is bringing along a Martian meteorite that landed in Oman, and was discovered in 1999, Mindy Weisberger reports for Live Science.

Perseverance will also save some work for later—the rover is carrying 43 sample collection tubes, where it will gather robotic handfuls of Martian soil that NASA hopes to send back to Earth on a future mission.

“To actually have really carefully selected samples back at Earth, even though they’re small—it’s going to really change the way we do business,” Georgetown University planetary scientist Sarah Stewart Johnson, tells Nadia Drake at National Geographic. “And once we have those samples, we’ll have them forever,” so they can be analyzed with tools that might not exist yet.

An interplanetary packing list

Mars doesn’t offer any amenities to its Earthly visitors, so Perseverance has to pack anything it might need. It’s bringing 23 cameras, more than any other interplanetary mission, and seven scientific instruments to study the planet and send data back to Earth. And the rover isn’t travelling alone—Perseverance is carrying a four-pound helicopter attached to its belly.

When it drops the copter in a flat spot, it will drive away and never meet up again, Ingenuity project manager MiMi Aung tells Kenneth Chang at the New York Times.

The helicopter is an independent experiment named Ingenuity, and it might just become the first helicopter to fly on another planet. It needs to meet several milestones, first: surviving the launch, the months-long journey, and deployment from Perseverance. Then it needs to stay warm through a cold Martian night, and recharge with its solar panel. Then, it will be ready to attempt its first flight on Mars.

The Martian environment presents challenges. The planet’s atmosphere is only about one percent as dense as Earths, and atmospheric density plays a big role in generating lift. To make up for it, Ingenuity is as light as possible, and its four-foot-long rotor blades will spin at 2,800 revolutions per minute, Irene Klotz writes for Scientific American. Ingenuity’s mission is to show whether powered flight is possible on Mars, so each test flight will be just 90 seconds long.

Aung tells the Times that Ingenuity’s technology could be scaled up to a 30 pound aircraft instead of just four. The bigger helicopter could carry scientific instruments and cameras, but because the atmosphere is so thin, it won’t be able to carry astronauts.

Groundwork for the future

Just like Perseverance is building on past rovers’ research, future missions will rely on Perseverance’s hard work. A couple of the rover’s experiments were planned with an eye on crewed missions to Mars.

One such experiment is MOXIE. About the size of a car battery, MOXIE is a tool for splitting carbon dioxide molecules in Mars’ atmosphere into carbon monoxide and, most importantly, oxygen, Max Levy reports for Smithsonian magazine. If it works, future Mars-bound astronauts could use a larger version of MOXIE to generate the oxygen they need to refuel for the trip back to Earth.

“NASA definitely doesn’t want to just leave people on Mars,” says Asad Aboobaker, an engineer at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory, to Smithsonian.

NASA also sent a set of material swatches to Mars—not to coordinate the rover’s upholstery, but to help spacesuit designers decide which material to use on the outside of future astronauts’ spacesuits. The five swatches—Nomex, Gore-tex, Kevlar, Vectran and Teflon—are nestled next to a piece of helmet visor and the Martian meteorite that SHERLOC will use to calibrate its sensors.

Over the course of Perseverance’s mission, the rover will use SHERLOC to measure how the materials degrade when exposed to the Martian environment, particularly the radiation from the Sun and cosmic rays and from Mars dust.

A successful launch

With all this on board, Perseverance had a successful launch and will hurtle through space until it reaches its destination. If you missed the launch—or just want to launch it again—it’s available on NASA’s YouTube channel. The rover also has a Twitter account for updates.

James Griffin - Fire

Fire – James Griffin

Redandgoldgirl

Words: 1,893.

The trunk of James’ SUV closed with a thump, securing your belongings alongside everyone else’s. Your senior year of high school began in just one week, which meant that it was time for the yearly end-of-summer camping trip that you and your friends always took.

For the second year in a row, James had been nominated for transportation due to the car he’d received for his sixteenth birthday. Before anyone was of legal driving age, Lance’s mother had happily offered her chauffeur services. Having as many children as she did required an SUV similar to the one James now drove, which made her the perfect transportation while the teenagers were working towards their licenses.

“Shotgun!” Kinkade shouted, reaching for the door handle of the passenger seat.

Lance elbowed him in the side, earning a grunt of vague pain. Kinkade turned to the brunet, poised to protest, but the Cuban teen placed a hand over his mouth and tilted his head in your direction. Kinkade took the hint and glanced around Lance, catching you leaning against the trunk of the car, chatting about something inaudible with James. A soft blush dusted your cheeks, and James grinned in the way he only did when you were in sight.

Kinkade smirked knowingly, sharing a glance with the Cuban whose hand was still plastered to his face. The dark-haired boy stuck out his tongue, pressing it to Lance’s palm, and the brunet yelped in disgust, retracting his hand and wiping his friend’s saliva on his jacket.

Lance opened the back door, crawling into the middle seat beside Keith. Pidge, Hunk, and Nadia were stationed in the third row, and Kinkade slid in next to Lance. James rounded the car, opening the passenger door and allowing you inside. You smiled shyly at him as you stepped up, accepting his empty hand to keep your balance. He closed the door as you tugged the seatbelt across your chest, watching as he took his place in the driver’s seat.

“Everyone ready to go camping?” James called as he turned the key and the ignition roared to life.

Cheers and yells sounded from the other passengers, and you giggled at their enthusiasm.

When you reached the campsite, another chorus of cheering erupted through the car. James put it in park and killed the engine, and everyone scrambled to the closest door. James shuffled to your side and opened the door for you, offering you a hand of assistance. You accepted it with a grin, stepping down.

“You know I’m capable of getting in and out of cars on my own, right?” you teased.

He chuckled. “Of course. I just thought you might like the help.”

“Well, thank you,” you murmured, your grin fading to a shy smile.

“Alright!” Nadia chirped loud enough to catch everyone’s attention as she shuffled out of the third row of seats. “Everyone remember the tent pairs?”

It had been decided at the beginning of summer how the four tents would be divided – Pidge and Hunk, Lance and Keith, James and Kinkade, and you and Nadia. This was the simplest solution that left nobody feeling uncomfortable – however, as Nadia eyed the expressions of her friends, she wondered if the tents would be reassigned. Kinkade and Keith were stationed evenly on either side of Lance, both enthralled in every word that left the Cuban’s mouth. You stood as close to James as physically possible, and from Nadia’s point of view, the brunet was just a second away from brushing your (h/c) locks behind your ear.

“I think your pairs are being ignored,” Pidge chuckled, standing beside Nadia.

“Maybe James will finally tell (y/n) how he feels,” Hunk mused with a soft chuckle.

Nadia shook her head doubtfully, slinging the strap of her duffle bag onto her shoulder. She padded away from her classmates, headed towards the smoothest ground in order to begin pitching her tent. Pidge and Hunk followed, though Pidge did majority of the work once Hunk opened the tent bag.

“Let’s go,” Lance suggested, nodding for Keith and Kinkade to follow. He  grasped his backpack in one hand and his tent in the other, shuffling over to where Nadia and Pidge were pitching their tents. He tossed down the bags and followed suit, laying the fabric of the tent on the ground and pulling the stakes from the bag.

Time ceased to exist as you gazed into the eyes of the brunet you so desperately had a crush on. They seemed to sparkle every time he laughed, and the soothing tone of his voice made your knees wobble like they were made of Jell-O.

“Hey, Shirogane!” shouted Nadia’s impatient voice.

You cut yourself off mid-reply to something James had said to turn and glare at your friend. Everyone in the group knew you despised being called by your last name. You were your own person, thank you very much – not just the younger sister of Garrison High’s legendary athlete.

“Yes, Razavi?” you spat back.

She only grinned. “The tents are all set up, and I don’t know if you lovebirds noticed, but it’s getting dark.”

Pidge cackled somewhere behind her, and heat splattered across your cheeks. You turned your gaze to the sky to find that it was indeed a much deeper shade of blue than it had been when you’d arrived, and ribbons of pink and orange were beginning to swirl around as the sun settled down for the evening.

“I guess we should get to the camp, get dinner going,” James commented awkwardly, a hand rubbing at the back of his neck.

You nodded. “Yeah, let’s go.”

You pointedly ignored Nadia as you retrieved a blanket from your duffle. Wrapping it around your shoulders, you returned to the fire pit, where James and Kinkade were laying logs and twigs and attempting to ignite them.

Kinkade’s lighter conveniently ran out of fluid, and before he could curse under his breath, Keith scoffed. Rolling his eyes, the raven-haired boy extended a gloved hand, offering his own lighter to the cause.

Kinkade accepted it sheepishly, lighting a crumpled up ball of newspaper in order to set the fire pit ablaze. You sat down on the ground, watching the growing embers, only half aware of a presence beside you. Turning your head, you found Hunk sitting there, with Pidge on his other side.

“Hey,” you greeted.

“Hey, (y/n),” Hunk smiled.

“You in charge of food again?” you grinned. The large brunet had been dubbed the camp cook for the last couple of years.

He laughed, but before he could reply, Pidge cut in.

“You need to tell James how you feel.”

For the second time that day, you sputtered, and your face heated up in a way that was definitely not caused by the fire.

“Excuse me?” You nervously glanced around, ensuring that no one else had heard her.

“Tell James that you like him,” Pidge repeated in a no-nonsense tone, a sharpened stick in one hand while the other held a marshmallow preparing to be impaled.

“I don’t know what you-“

“Everyone can see it, Shirogane,” Nadia added, dropping down on the other side of Pidge. “Everyone but James. And we can all tell that he’s super into you.”

You chewed your lip, shyly gazing up at the brunet who was skewering hot dogs with sticks and passing them around. You exhaled a soft sigh, dropping your glance back down to your lap.

“Are you sure he’s interested?”

Your voice was so soft that your three accomplices almost didn’t hear it.

“Absolutely,” Nadia replied, at the same time that Hunk chirped, “Totally!” and Pidge grunted, “Duh.”

Before you could fathom how to confess, James dropped down beside you. He offered you a smile and a speared hot dog before holding his own over the open flame.

“Mind if I intrude?” he grinned.

“You’re not intruding,” you murmured, accepting the stick and holding it parallel to his. When you turned your head to try and distract yourself from how close the brunet was and how good he smelled, you found that your friends had abandoned you, finding new seats on the other side of the fire pit. There was a good three feet of space on your side as well as James’, leaving you rather secluded.

Nadia, Hunk, and Pidge sent you encouraging grins and obnoxious hand gestures, to which you responded with the deepest glare you could muster.

The night continued rather smoothly, everyone eating and sharing stories and discussing their plans for the upcoming year. A cold wind settled in, causing you to wrap your blanket tighter around your torso. The soft fabric did little to protect you from the chill, and you shivered visibly as you gazed into the slowly dying fire.

“Cold?” James questioned softly.

“I-I’m f-fine,” you stuttered, teeth beginning to chatter.

The brunet chuckled. “Sure you are, (y/n).”

He opened an arm, fist closed around the corner of his own blanket. He wrapped it around you, tugging you into his warm torso and soothing your shivers. You sighed in contentment, relaxing in his hold. A glance around the fire told you that everyone had already gone to bed – the tents were dark, and the spaces on the ground where your friends had previously been sitting were now empty.

“We’ve been abandoned,” you murmured softly, tilting your head to look up at James.

“So we have,” he smiled. “I was kinda hoping we would be.”

A soft smirk played on your lips. “And why would you hope for that?”

He ducked his head, leaning in until his nose brushed softly against yours. “Do you want me to tell you, or can I show you?”

Your breath hitched in your throat as his breath ghosted over your lips. “Show me,” you decided breathlessly.

He closed the gap, gingerly pressing his lips to yours. The arm around your shoulders tightened, and his other hand softly caressed your cheek. You melted into the kiss, heart pounding inhumanly fast in your chest – you briefly wondered if he could hear it. Every nerve in your body tingled, warmed by his presence and his touch.

He broke the kiss with a soft inhale, smiling softly at you. You gazed up at him, eyed half-lidded as you struggled to grasp that the moment was actually happening, not just another daydream.

“What does this make us?” he inquired softly, the hand on your cheek lifting to slide through your hair.

“We can figure that out tomorrow,” you grinned.

He chuckled, nudging your nose with his before kissing you again. You responded eagerly, lifting a hand to hold the side of his neck. He hummed against your lips, tilting his head to deepen the kiss. You soon lost track of time, much more interested in chasing James’ lips in the moonlight.

When you finally decided to head to bed, you reluctantly parted ways... Until James unzipped his tent to find it empty, and discovered that Kinkade had squeezed in with Lance and Keith, the two dark-haired teens in a constant battle over the Cuban. That left an empty space for you, and you giggled softly when James offered it.

Eternal teasing followed the morning after when you emerged from James’ tent instead of your own, but you ceased caring as the brunet wrapped his arms around your waist and everything settled down.

hey anon i’m ngl, this is one of the best prompts i’ve ever gotten.

julian

wanna hear a secret? julian is that one person who’s terrified of flying.

“it shouldn’t be possible for a 400-ton hunk of metal to take to the skies, much less stay up there for hours on end!!!”

he’ll literally only fly if MC is there. if they’re not, it takes a whole lot of pushing from asra to get him to even step foot in an airport.

before taking off, he has to take both anti-anxiety and anti-nausea pills. 

then, he reads the safety manual over and over again till he has it memorized

the entire ride he has headphones in because the sound of the plane’s engine scares him even more.

if they’re any turbulence at all, he faints. just a fact.

also, he’s really annoying, always asking poor flight attendants for water, then vodka, then more vodka

“sir we can’t offer you any more alcohol”

“ I NEED IT TO EASE MY NERVES - wait, what’s your name? oh, karen, what a lovely name...TO EASE MY NERVES, KAREN.”

when they finally do land, julian makes a huge deal out of it and dramatically laments at the possibility of crashing and getting into a  LOST (the tv show) situation

(he’s never seen lost) 

asra

asra is pretty okay on planes. most of the time he just reads or chats with the MC about how pretty the skies are.

he also likes to flick through the channels on the little tv in front of his chair.

so, relatively, he’s a great passenger!

except when it comes to faust.

“sir, the snake either has to go in the cargo department or under your seat in a carrier”“

how dare you! she is a PASSENGER. she has her own TICKET. SEE?”

“sir that’s just an expired papa john’s coupon”

“oh.”

yeah asra has gotten kicked off planes before for refusing to let them put her in cargo, and since she’s not a service animal, there’s nothing he can really do. 

it’s a good thing the MC prefers road trips with him and faust to flying anyday. <3

nadia

obviously, nadia has her own private jet.

but when she does have to travel commercially, she solely flies first class.

during her flights, she lounges back in her seat, glass of champagne in her hand, the latest cosmo mag in the other.

MC feels weird riding in first class, however, and chooses to simply go with the normal economy class. Nadia, to spoil them, just continually sends the most expensive food and drinks back to them. they are so embarassecd but at the same time so grateful.

nadia has so many frequent flier miles, its so crazy

pre-flight vip longue? yep. she’s in there.

she’s legendary among the flight attendants. not only is she nice, but...

“who is that?”

“dude, that’s miss satrinava.”

“so?”

“she tips.”

“and?

“she tips hundreds.”

“....GOOD MORNING MISS SATRINAVA HOW ARE YOU DOING THIS FINE-”

portia

portia has two moods on a plane

1) she’s having a great time, super sociable, really chill

2) or headphones in, frustrated with ilya, anxiety snacking

no matter what though, she always brings pepi along

(and pepi actually goes under her seat because she follows the rules unlike SOMEONE she knows *cough couch* ASRA *cough cough*

anyways, to pass the time on long flights, she loves to play card games

slapjack is her favorite but it usually annoys other passengers so she goes with blackjack instead

she eats every peanut and pretzel packet on the plane because flying makes her hungry ok

always says thank you to flight attendants and commonly salutes the pilot god bless her

gets cabin sick really easy too oof, better get ready

muriel

muriel hates flying for three reasons.

1) he can’t bring ianna, she’s too big

2) he is also too big, making it really hard for him to squeeze into tiny seats (give him the aisle seat or give him death)

and 3) all the random people give him anxiety, especially since they’re in an enclosed space

so, really, he rarely flies at all. but if he absolutely has to, he makes himself as little of a nuisance as possible. he doesn’t ask the flight attendants about anything, doesn’t get up to use the bathroom (he couldn’t if he tried, those bathrooms are like 2 square inches), and doesn’t talk to anyone

headphones are man’s best friend.

he loves to listen to audiobooks, especially ones about nature and biographies. 

oh but if marley and me is playing on the tv he’s tuning in he doesn’t care if he has to pay that extra $6

also!!!!! this man!!!!!!!! he always leaves the plane last so he doesn’t have to deal with the awkwardness of fighting for a spot in the exit line

but that means he sees a lot of people struggling to get their bags from the overhead compartments 

so, like the good boyo he is, he helps them

god i love muriel

lucio

lets not kid ourselves

lucio would NEVER be caught dead on a commercial flight

if he was, he’d be kicked out immediately for trying to join the mile hile club

that’s it

that’s all i can say
