[project-sekai-facts]

what about plushies and aliens and inanimate objects? I'm curious now

there's more than I can fit in one post, but here's some examples

the figurines on the desk in this card represent honami, ichika, shiho, and saki, in that order.

leo/need also quite often have each others instruments as keyrings or some sort of model in each others' cards. shiho's dlf card has their actual instruments instead of miniatures. bonus points to their zodiac signs + colors in honami's card above.

the red shooting stars in this card represent honami in her new role as L/n's leader.

the ORS cards all have VBS-colored gems, and Akito's has the vivids and bad dogs ones paired together.

and there's MMJ colored gemstones in the step by step cards (plus minori & haruka colored bows in minori's card)

the anniversary cards from this year all have references to the other characters in each unit. shiho has the keyrings and mentioned above, airi has colored clovers, toya has lilies with vbs-colored stamen (an's on the left, kohane's on the right, he's holding akito's), nene has mozaic arts with wxs-colored canaries (plus the one she's holding that has green feathers), and ena has paints and paintings (clockwise from the top: mafuyu, kanade, ena, mizuki)

i've seen some people theorising that the aliens tsukasa is holding in this card are meant to represent saki and toya based on the colors, and i think it's pretty likely. also the alien nene has matches emu's species instead of her own unlike the other cards in the set which all have the character interacting with the same species as them. also emu/nene/rui colored aliens + a star alien for tsukasa in emu's card.

the pegasus here possibly represents saki (it might represent himself, but it was the tenma siblings event so i think saki is pretty likely).

much like vbs and mmj, wxs also has gemstones in this card

the lights in rui's star of the story card have a gold star for tsukasa, pink heart for emu, green music notes for nene, and a purple spanner for himself.

really really obvious, but tsukasa and emu robots! also the cat plushie that shows up in a few of rui's cards represents himself (it's a plot point in wonder halloween). oh and bonus tsukasa balloon. there's also wxs colored animal toys in len's amidst a dream card.

the crystal apple pendant in the sayonara persona cards represents mafuyu. kanade is embracing it, ena is reaching out to it, and mizuki is comforting it, referencing their roles in mafuyu's story.

there's n25-colored flowers on the bench next to mafuyu in her our escape for survival card.

and i should've put this in the animals one but i forgot. akito dragonsona.

HISTORY

It was a stormy night, so the story her mother told always started, the sea was rougher than the likes we’d seen in years, lightning crackling in the sky. That’s what it was like the night Rose Zeller was born. She came into the world with an entrance, and she’s never quite stopped making one either.

It was easy enough to get lost in the rolling hills of Ireland’s picturesque countryside, the young girl bribing her parents to take her to the mountains whenever possible. Any issues she was facing, whether they be school related or at home, seemed to melt away with the fresh air and search for a foothold in the craggy cliffside. Life seemed better, easier, when she could escape to any place without walls.

Her parents, for all the generations of witches and warlocks that came before them, never made magic a huge deal in the family dynamic. It was just, there. Using a spell or potion for menial tasks or ailments was as normal in the Zeller home as it was to breath. They turned to natural remedies before store bought, leading Rosie to gain a knowledge of the flora and fauna growing around her. They'd take her to trips to see the Quidditch tournaments, making a vacation of it, which developed a love for the sport despite the girl growing up among muggles for the most part.

When she got her letter for Hogwarts, her parents were ecstatic. Currently, Rose is enjoying her third year in Hufflepuff house and couldn't be happier. She loves her studies and, for the most part, enjoys the school...if you don't mind the occasional troll rumor or the fact one of the popular students was killed. She keeps herself busy with her school work, and her numerous clubs - astronomy, dueling and wizard's chess. Not to mention being a chaser for quidditch, a fact that her family is fairly proud of.

AESTHETICS & PERSONALITY

uses sweetheart condescendingly & idiot affectionately, can and will hike until her legs feel like jelly because her mind isn't yet clear enough for her liking, skipping stones across a glassy lake, bringing a steaming cup of tea up to a tower for some time to herself, the heat in your cheeks when you're at the pub with your friends, cozy sweaters to fight off the cold, the badger tattoo on her shoulder blade only a few know about, keeping her wand in the messy bun, an agate pendant that never seems to leave her neck, nose scrunches whenever she laughs for real, soft perfume lingering behind, sunsets over sunrises, the fire crackling whilst laying on a rug near by

She's always had a laidback spunk about her. More than happy to take a backseat when someone more outgoing takes the lead, but will step up into a reluctant leadership role if no one else will. The 'Flirty Mom Friend' to a fold, if you're doing shots she'll do them with you...but also gently suggest water when she's concerned about you. Also will be your wingwoman immediately, or 'fake date' to stay off any creeps. Bakes & cooks to show she cares, will lend you her oversized sweaters...and happily steal yours too.

A 2100-Year-Old Medallion of Goddess Aphrodite and a Warrior Tomb Found in Russia

Archaeologists have unearthed a silver medallion depicting the Greek goddess Aphrodite (Roma Venüs) in a 2100-year-old grave of a priestess on the northeast coast of the Black Sea.

The unique medallion depicts ten rather than the known twelve signs of the zodiac and provides insight into religious practices at the time of its creation.

The discovery, in the opinion of archaeologists, raises the possibility that the buried woman was an Aphrodite priestess, the goddess of beauty and love. The rings, silver earrings, and other grave goods that were dedicated to the goddess led to these conclusions.

The grave is among a number of striking finds unearthed this summer at a site near the shore of the Taman Peninsula in southern Russia, east of the Crimean Peninsula and between the Black Sea and the Sea of Azov.

According to the Oleg Deripaska Volnoe Delo Foundation’s spokesman Ruben Bunyatyan, archaeologists Nikolay Sudarev and Mikhail Treister discovered the woman’s grave during the Phanagoria archaeological expedition’s 2022 summer season.

The large medallion is made of silver and shows the goddess Aphrodite in the center, surrounded by symbols portraying 10 signs of the zodiac. 

Greek historian, Hecataeus of Miletus, said that Phanagoria was founded in the sixth century B.C. by refugees from Teos, a Greek city on the coast of Anatolia now part of modern-day Turkey.

The Aphrodite medallion is surrounded by 10 embossed symbols that correspond to signs of the zodiac, including a lion for Leo, a bull for Taurus, and a scorpion for Scorpio. But the symbols for the zodiac signs Aquarius and Libra are missing, and the researchers don’t know why.

According to archaeologists, the inclusion of the zodiac indicates the medallion is a portrayal of “Aphrodite Urania” — the heavenly aspect of the goddess, as distinct from her Earthly aspect, “Aphrodite Pandemos.”

It also suggests a belief in astrology, the idea that the positions of celestial bodies can influence events on Earth, which was widespread throughout the ancient world.

The silver medallion found in the early first century B.C. grave shows the embossed head, shoulders, and hands of Aphrodite, based on other contemporary iconographic portrayals.

Such medallions were common in the territory of the Bosporan Kingdom as early as 2,300 years ago, said Maria Chashuk, senior research associate of the Phanagoria archaeological expedition.

The medallion is about 7 centimeters (2.75 inches) in diameter and 15 millimeters thick.

Medallions of the sort were used in many ways: as brooches, as headgear accessories, and as pendants.

Another intriguing find at the Black Sea site was a warrior’s tomb featuring a sword that had been made in early medieval Iran.

The large iron sword was found in the style of swords from the Sassanid, or the second Persian Empire, which ruled the areas of modern-day Iran, Iraq, Turkmenistan, and much of Afghanistan. The researchers think that the sword may have been a diplomatic gift or that it may have been taken as a military trophy.

According to the statement from the Volnoe Delo Foundation, “this massive, expensive and prestigious sword was part of the equipment of the horsemen of the era of the Great Migration,” a period when much of Europe and Western Asia was threatened by invasions of peoples from Central Asia, such as the Huns. The unique find not only reflects the tastes of the late antique warriors of the Taman Peninsula, but also suggests that in the middle of the first millennium Phanagoria had close political and cultural ties with the [Sassanid] Empire,”

The warrior’s tomb (first century B.C.) also contained fragments of a horse’s harness, buckles, belt tips, glass jugs, utensils, and wooden boxes, as well as a pottery jug, beads, a brass mirror, and a pair of iron scissors.

Introduction to Gemini in Zodiac Genesis

Voiced by Tara strong

Gemini: Once, there were two of us… two halves of a whole. But now, I walk this path alone. Yet still, the stars guide me.

Aries: 😊 Come on, Gemi! Let’s not waste any time—we’ve got a whole universe to save!

Gemini: I used to race through life without a care. But things are different now. I’ll catch up… in my own time.

Taurus: It’s okay to slow down sometimes, Gemi. You don’t have to always be moving.

Gemini: Maybe… but it’s hard to stay still when half of you is missing. Still, your calm is a welcome anchor.

Cancer: I can feel your pain, Gemini. Losing someone that close… it never really goes away.

Gemini: She’s still with me in every step I take. But sometimes… it’s hard not to feel the empty space.

Leo: You may have lost your sister, Gemini, but you’ve still got that spark inside. Don’t forget who you are.

Gemini: 🥺 I try to remember. She’d want me to keep shining… even if it feels dimmer sometimes.

Virgo: You’re always thinking so fast, Gemini. Have you tried focusing on just one thing?

Gemini: My thoughts are like the wind, Virgo. It’s hard to catch just one. But I know she’s in there… somewhere.

Libra: You’ve lost your other half, Gemini. But you can still find balance, even on your own.

Gemini: 🥹 It’s a delicate dance. But maybe, just maybe, I can find my own way without her… and still honor her memory.

Scorpio: Pain shapes us, Gemini. But it doesn’t define us. Use it to fuel your path forward.

Gemini: I’ll carry her memory with me, Scorpio. It’s the only way I can move forward.

Sagittarius: Come on, Gemini! There’s a whole universe out there. You’re still part of the story—don’t stop now.

Gemini: You’re right. There’s still so much to see. She would’ve wanted me to keep going.

Capricorn: The road ahead is long, but every step you take makes you stronger. You can honor her by pushing forward.

Gemini: I know. It’s not easy, but I’ll keep climbing… for both of us.

Aquarius: The stars are always moving, Gemini. Just like us. Your path can still lead somewhere beautiful.

Gemini: Maybe I’ll find something new out there. Something that feels like… home again.

Pisces: It’s okay to grieve, Gemini. Your emotions are part of you, and they don’t make you weak.

Gemini: I know. It’s just… the wind feels different without her. But I’ll keep moving with it.

The screen transitions to Gemini standing in the center of the zodiac circle, her yellow and purple aura glowing softly in the night. She holds her star pendant close, eyes full of determination. The twelve Zodiac signs form around her, and Gemini, though missing her twin, stands strong with the rest of her celestial family.

Gemini: Though I walk this path alone now… I carry her with me. We’ll find our way together, even if only in memory.

· The first daughter to David and Amelia Rose, Celeste was a child with a promising future. Her family was average, but always expected the best of her. She was put on a pedestal. It was never a place that she wanted to be, however. When her brother and sister were born, she felt as if the hype of her existence, finally, dwindled down and, truthfully, she was able to live a bit more peacefully. That didn't mean she didn't excel in all that she did. · She graduated high school as the top of her class, got a scholarship to college and happily graduated with a business degree. She always had hopes to open up her own book shop, however, in her time at college Cel met Miles Blake and they married after graduating. Her dreams were pushed to the side as she focused on making sure that her husband, Miles, achieved his. They were together for 20 years, had two daughters and lived a relatively happy life.

· However, Celeste knew that she was a closeted lesbian ever since her late-twenties. Trying to stay the perfect daughter, wife and mother - she dealt with the sexuality issue for a long, long time. It was up until Cel was forty-five when she, finally, decided to file for divorce as she was no longer happy and unable to feel fulfilled in her marriage. It was a messy divorce because it was rather sudden, but it was something that she needed to do. The kids decided to live with Celeste, accepting their mother's decision. Though, she feels terrible for changing their lives drastically.

· Their move to Oregon wasn't sudden as it took her a couple of years to decide it for her and her daughters, but as an empty shop was for sale and the perfect house was on the market - it was the perfect idea. She opened Full Moon Book Shop on Wilma Lane and the place has been a thriving business ever since. The new space and location was a good idea for her family as they're content and able to start anew. She is truly hoping that she is able to live the life she deserves.

OC mega Q&A

I did this many moons ago for my Deus Ex OC Zofie Orel from this user's posts. The original posts seem to have vanished but credit where credit is due. I've also added a section from this post as well. Now i'm going to do it for Seren Jones as it really does flesh out her character quite a bit, even more so that i've already done. It's also a good reference to show anyone who asks. I'll tag the Coemancer crew if you fancy doing it for yours and anyone else who wants to give it a go.

LONG post behind cut.

BASICS

What’s their full name? Seren, (Coe) Jones. She takes the Coe surname in her OG verse after marrying Sam, but drops it again whilst Starborn so as not to draw attention to herself. She plans to take it again should the stars align.

What does their name mean? Why were they named that? Seren is welsh for Star. She understands the irony. Her parents named her Seren after her mum saw her open her eyes for the first time and knew she'd want to explore the stars. Her father being a history professor with interested in the cultures their ancestors came from suggested the Welsh word for star.

Do they have any nicknames? Star, Ren. She also went by Dusty James when in the protective programme.

How old are they? 30 years old as of the start of her story.

When’s their birthday? 12 9th month 2300 Akila City

What’s their zodiac sign/element/birthstone/etc.? Do they believe that holds any significance? Earth astrology means nothing in space. She has no idea and doesn't care.

What’s their species/subspecies? Do they have any special/magical abilities? Starborn. All the powers that come with that. She is naturally empathic and can sense the emotions of others, which is both a benefit and hindrence. She now also has the ability to manipulate minds, thanks to Ryujin. She uses it as a tool should the need arise, but doesnt rely on it.

What “class” do they belong to (for fantasy characters)? If none, what weapon do they favor? They favour the Va’ruun Inflictor rifle, Hard Target sniper rifle and Magsheer. Occasionally using a Big Bang or Breach shotgun for close quarter’s ship fighting. Her specialities in her og verse were stealth, but since becoming starborn, she has developed more close quarters fighting skills that utilise her abilities. APPEARANCE

What do they look like? 5’5” athletic build woman. Original universe she had a silver coloured pixie haircut, Currently sporting a turquoise blue bixie cut. Has a few tiny scars on her face from mining, one on her forehead, the other on her jaw. She has a body encompassing tattoo of a trail of stars around her body.

Do they have a face claim? Myself in my 30s but with full health and video game perfect.

What’s their style like? Clothes, hair, makeup? Her original universe she wore sleek modern dark clothing. Whether it be formwear or suits. Now she wears what ever is comfortable under her starborn suit which she mostly wears. She does prefer dark colours still and prefers formwear, cargos and long sleeve tops or settler wear in shades of black. She does like to wear makeup, sticking to smoky eyes and dark lipstick. Her hair is one of her signature things and the blue colour is because of a certain pendant someone once wore.

How do they carry themselves? What’s their default expression? Her Og verse, she carried herself with humour and a twinkle in her eye. Since becoming starborn, she’s become more reserved and there is a constant sadness in her eyes.

Do they have any physical ailments or disabilities? Not any more. Noel once called her the physically healthiest person she’s ever met- One benefit of becoming Starborn. Mentally though, she is traumatised and has higher functioning depression.

Any defining features to their character? Her accent isnt definable as she moved from Akila to New Atlantis a few times. She now doesnt really have an accent but can take on any and often does when in proximity to them, becoming more Akilan the longer she is there and same in New Atlantis.

PERSONALITY

What’s their alignment? Chaotic good. She is compassionate and believes in doing good, but she hates beurocracy and sees the corruption in both the UC and FC. But she loathes the Crimson Fleet, seeing them as nothing more than 'coloured coded Spacers'.

Which one of the 16 Personality Types do they fit into? She finds that whole thing very problematic and does not subscribe to it.

What are their hobbies and interests? Do they have any particular “favorites” (food, books, and so on)? Houseplant gardening, Music and reading. She also now loves customising her weapons. She secretly loves Chunks cheesecake and cherry Boompop! She can cook, but tends not to bother much by herself. Though she did learn to cook her grandpa's famous meatloaf after the recipe was passed to her. Favourite book is Bram Stoker's Dracula.

What are they bad at? Delegating. They have a perfectionist streak and feel they need to do everything themselves to make sure it's done right.

What kind of things do they dislike/hate? Cruelty, The Hunter, The Crimson Fleet in the OG verse, Corruption, Injustice and evil corporations.

Do they have any vices/addictions/mental illnesses? Her main ‘vice’ is always having bourbon or a Solomon beer on her person to toast the universe she leaves. She also has higher functioning depression.

What are their goals and motivations? To find a universe she can finally stop in and find a Sam she can be with again after losing the love of her life in her OG verse. To survive until then.

What are their manners like? Any habits? Her OG verse , she was polite at first until she got the measure of someone. Now she knows people, she behaves exactly as she needs to. Habits - saving every fishbowl, jellyfish tank and plant from ships. She also always toasts a universe before she leaves it.

What are they most afraid of? Never finding ‘home’. Finding a Sam she hates.

BACKGROUND

Where were they born? What was their childhood like? Akila City. But at 5 left and moved to NA with her parents. Start of war left NA and returned to Akila at 8. Stayed there until she was 16 when her dad got a new job in NA uni and moved back there again. She was a lone child and was bullied most of her childhood due to being Freestar in UC space, then an expat back in Akila. She was nerdy and kept to herself, a little baby goth that liked to read and learn things. She had few friends, most expats like her that stuck with each other until something better came along for them, often leaving her alone again. Wasn't until she went to university she started making friends that had similar interests to her.

What’s their family like? Her dad Michael is a university professor, occasional poker player and the one who showed her how vital a good education is. Her mum Anne mostly worked in the diplomatic sector, as an assistant to the consulate dealing with businesses. She taught Seren how to deal with both. Seren had a good relationship with her parents, though as a kid didnt fully understand why they had to keep moving. But it forced her to have a strong sense of independence that allowed her to survive her life now. She misses them dearly but hopes they are doing well with the vast amount of money she left them. She avoids meeting them in the new universes, especially ones where she doesnt know what happened to the Seren of that universe.

What factions or organizations are they a part of? What ranks and titles do they hold? She was born in Akila City, so is Freestar Collective. She believes in what they stand for, but doesnt ignore the corruption with the governors. She became a Ranger because of her sense of justice, though hates the black and white views of some of them and the corruption in others. In her OG verse she also joined the UC Vanguard as she realised very quickly there was a bigger story going on that would effect the whole settled systems. Same reason for joining Sysdef to take down the Crimson Fleet. Other accomplishments of her og verse were being a Ryujin operative that managed to prevent the Corp from releasing some dangerous tech. Of course her title now as Starborn brings it’s own complications and accomplishments in each universe she travels through.

How do they fit into their “story”? She was in protective custody under a cover name Dusty Jones, working as a miner. The day she was told the company she had become whistleblower to, was no more was the day she was asked to collect what ever was in that cave on Vectera. She became the lead explorer of Constellation due to her connection to the Artifacts and ended up becoming Starborn after losing everything that meant anything to her in her original universe.

Where do they currently live? What’s their place like? Now? On their ship: The Valkyrie. Before she builds that, her Guardian ship and sometimes the Lodge beds to rest. Before that in her OG verse- the Lodge, her home in Akila and her cabin aboard the Star Eagle. The Guardian of course is minimal. She adds a bed roll to one side and any cuddly toys she finds she places them around her cockpit seat as it amuses her. Same with fishbowls and jellyfish tanks that she puts by the main viewing window. Once she's built the Valkyrie, she sets it up with an infirmary as the first thing you enter upon, crew quarters one side should she chose to have some and her captain's quarters the other, which is always a Nova galactic hab as its cosy and has a built in galley. Upstairs is a workshop and small internal storage. Her priority is always have a cabot4 bridge so she can avoid ladders. Her home in Midtown, Akila in her og verse was cosy, mixing Akilan furniture with more modern New Atlantis stylings. One day she might rebuild it.

How do they eventually die? She’s ‘died’ many times already. Each time she enters the Unity her body dies and part of her being joins that universe, the rest being reborn again in a new verse. She hopes one day she’ll find her new home to stop in and die of old age with the one she loves…and maybe start all over again when they feel like it.

RELATIONSHIPS

Do they have any friends? Would they consider anyone to be their best friend? She was best friends with Sam. Also in her og verse she was great friends with Andreja and Barrett. To a far lesser extent Sarah until after she loses Sam, where Sarah is a great comfort. She found it easy to make friends with lots of people around the systems too. Now? She has become friends with her counterpart from one universe and the Sam they are married too. It always ends though, so she tries not to become too close to anyone.

What’s their friend group like? What role do they play in it? Before - like family. As an only child who was bullied growing up, she didn't really have friends. So to be with people who accept and get her was a wonderful feeling. She was part of Constellation and became almost the main go person thanks to being connected to the Artifacts the group were looking for. Now She is quite the self imposed loner. Sometimes guiding those she likes in a verse she comes across, helping them in some way. She sometimes takes crew aboard her Valkyrie so she isnt so alone, giving them her ship before she leaves that universe.

What’s their love life like? Do they have any kids? She was married to Sam Coe. They had an incredible relationship of best friends, soulmates and lovers. Passionate and full of fun. But he was killed by the Hunter in her Og verse and she has been in mourning since then. She became the closest thing to a real mother Cora Coe ever had considering how bad her birth mother was, but lost her when Sam died and Lillian took her. She will meet that Cora again some day though.

Who do they look up to? Who do they trust? She admires her parents for doing what ever they had to do to keep her safe and comfortable during the Colony War. She admires/d Sam for how he turned himself around and became such a wonderful father to Cora. So far, the Sams she's met, she would trust, even the one who was cold to her, because she understood his reasoning.

Who do they hate? Do they have any enemies? The Crimson Fleet. The Hunter, Lillian Hart and Jacob Coe. Benjamin Bayu, Vae Victis. They made plenty of enemies in her og verse, what was left of the Crimson Fleet for one and who ever Vae Victis was working with.

Do they have any pets? No. She always wanted a cat, but they were too expensive and being she is Starborn now, it isn't fair to have one (cats are seen in a movie poster so i think they exist, we just never see them). Perhaps when she finds ‘home’ she’ll get one for her final home. She does save all the fishtanks and jellyfish tanks though for her ship, who get to see space as she sets them in her cockpit.

Are they good with kids? Animals? She adores Cora like a mother. She never thought she’d feel that way, but Cora is special - also a teenager. She still doesnt go googly over babies. She has no intentions of more children and isn't even sure Starborn can have children. But adopting might be on the cards..maybe. She likes animals and prefers not harming wildlife, using creator's peace on agressive species. FACTS

Which tropes do they fit? Which archetypes? The Hero, The Chosen One, The Sage and Explorer all rolled into one.

Do they play any instruments? Sports? She likes to sing along to songs when she’s alone. She is naturally stupidly fit thanks to her new nature, but as an explorer keeps it that way.

What are some items they always carry? Her favoured weapons, medical packs, alien boba tea and Chunks cakes. Bourbon. Lots of credits.

Do they collect anything? Her ship Valkyrie. Fish and jellyfish tanks. Succulents.

What position do they sleep in? Side sleeper, curled up usually with a plushie for comfort.

Which animal would you say represents them? A russian blue cat.

What stereotypical high school clique would they fit into? The weirdo.

Do they believe in aliens? Ghosts? Reincarnation or something else? She believes the Creators are something otherworldly and she still believes some planet has sentient aliens comparable to humans. But she’s seen plenty of alien creatures! Ghosts? yeah she believes in them after finding the Pale Lady. Re-incarnation? Does Unity count because she’s been reborn a few times now.

Do they follow any religions/gods? Do they celebrate holidays? Her parents are both Enlightened and she does agree with the philosophy, though doesn't practice. Even with becoming Starborn, she can't subscribe to the Universal view. She refuses to celebrate UC Foundation day, but does enjoy the Solomon festival in Akila. ( Earth equivelent US 4th July and UK Midsummer)

Which Deadly Sin do they most correspond to? Which Heavenly Virtue? Not catholic so closest might be wrath for her hatred of The Hunter. Virtue? Compassion.

If you had to choose one tarot card to represent them, which would it be? Strength: UPRIGHT: Strength, courage, persuasion, influence, compassion. REVERSED: Inner strength, self-doubt, low energy, raw emotion. Both aspects fit her. SOCIAL

How does your OC feel about their full name? They find it quite ironic their name means star, when they are in fact Starborn. But she loved when Sam called her his star, so she loves her name.

What do strangers notice about them first? Her eyes usually. they are very pale green and striking, usually accentuated with makeup to enhance them. next would be her hair colour, which is usually unnatural.

How does their social personality differ from how they act when they’re alone? In her OG verse she comes across as polite and professional to strangers but also empathetic due to her natural ability. As The Marshall once said, she could sell dirt to a dusty (aka miner.) She's quite chatty and enjoys company. Alone, she talks to herself whilst doing things and especially now as Starborn where she finds herself alone a lot she often sings to herself. (the Guardian ship has great acoustics she'd found.

How do they act around a crush? She was smitten the first moment she saw Sam and worked very hard to make sure he got her signals. But always behaved as a friend would to him, just now and then dropping hints that she was interested.

Do they have a “tell” for when they’re lying? No, she has a killer 'poker face'. If only she knew how to play poker. But It's how she was able to fool the Crimson Fleet when she went undercover in them, playing them whilst taking their support from them. She enjoyed being the Mantis in her OG verse, seeing as much like one of her favourite earth movies Atomic Blonde.

What do they smell like? In the OG verse, her signature scent was amber, Akilan bloodrose and vanilla. She's been told she now has a incense like scent they can't place. She wonders if all Starborn smell like that?

What is their hair texture like? Very straight, silky thick hair.

How much jewelry do they wear, and do they have a favorite or distinguishing piece? She wears two sets of little hoops in each ear, which she gets redone every universe. She once had a platinum wedding ring, made from metal she mined.

Do they have a word or phrase that they tend to overuse? My Sam.....

What is a weird quality that they have (ie their hands are always cold, they’re always hungry, they snort when they laugh, etc)? Apart from the fact they are a being beyond space and time now? ... They have a high tolerance for alcohol, it seems even more so now as Starborn.

What color do they look strikingly good in? Deep dark red or teal blue. But they look and feel great in black. Andreja would be proud.

Do they make strong/frequent eye contact when they talk to someone? Yes. Their eyes often reflect the emotion of the person they are talking too.

What attributes do they have that are inherited from their parents or shared with their siblings/other relatives? Courage and stubborness, compassion and empathy (the latter from her mother. )

Are their greatest flaw and their greatest strength related and in what way? (ie very caring and helpful but a doormat, or very observant and shrewd but often paranoid) Being stubborn can be both an asset and a flaw!

How has their childhood affected the way they view an aspect of their life (people, education, society, themselves, etc)? She saw the two main factions of the Settled Systems as a child and how it treated a child, so as much as she is more a Freestar supporter she knows it isnt perfect. She was often alone and is cautious about making friends although she desperatly wants companionship.

The day was slowly drawing to a close.

While for most, it would be a sign to wind down and prepare for the following day.

However, such is not the case for Gypsy’s Palace.

The nightclub was in full swing and was more packed than ever. Especially on such an occasion that was Mireya Quinlan’s birthday.

Kai, in the middle of his set number, had received a text message from a familiar number. He had passed the message to his wife.

And so here she was, making her way outside of the busy club to meet with her new guest who wasn’t exactly old enough to enter.

The birthday girl smiled warmly. “How are you doing, Miku?”

The young university student bowed politely. She adjusted her baseball cap to better cover her face. “I’ve had better days. I planned to give this to you earlier, but summer assignments for school’s been piling up. I only just finished making this just now.”

She reached into her book bag, pulling out a palm-sized velvet box. She reached out for Mireya to take the small present herself.

Miku opened her mouth to say more but closed quickly, shaking her head. I just hope this misunderstanding between you and the Queen gets settled soon, this is getting outta hand…

She turned on her heel and quickly muttered a ‘happy birthday’ before making her way back into the black car where a certain girl with short blonde and orange hair was behind the wheel.

With an cheeky wave from the blondie, the two drove off into the night.

Curious, Mireya peered into the small box that was gifted to her from the former idol who, strangely enough, reminded Mireya of herself in her younger days.

Inside was a hand-crafted paperclip chain necklace with a gold plated coin serving as the pendant. Imprinted on the coin was a vague shape of a lion— Leo, Mireya’s own zodiac.

Mireya held the velvet box in her hands, the weight of it surprisingly light yet filled with meaning. She gazed at the hand-crafted necklace, the paperclip chain glinting softly in the dim light, the gold-plated coin with the embossed lion catching her eye. It was more than a piece of jewelry; it was a symbol of her zodiac, a nod to her strength and leadership as a Leo.

She smiled, a sense of kinship with Miku stirring in her heart. "Miku, your thoughtfulness touches me," she whispered to the night. "This necklace, with its lion, reminds me not only of my sign but of the courage and resilience we both share. Thank you for this beautiful gift, and for the memories of music and dreams we've all created. Here's to clear skies and brighter stars for both of us."

With a final glance at the retreating car, Mireya clasped the necklace around her neck, feeling its cool metal settle against her skin, a tangible reminder of the connections that music and time had woven into her life.

The full moon hung lazily in the sky one quiet Sunday night. All was still in the Ackerman household as fourteen-year-old Zody was immersed in their report for school the next day. They set their astronomy textbook aside, took their pen in their left hand, and...

They stared at their blank notebook and frowned. All the information Zody had read rattled around aimlessly in their mind like balls in a lottery spinner. They didn't know where to start!

Something clattered at the window, and Zody's eyes found orange fuzz at the glass. They stood from their desk and walked to the window, unlatching and lifting the pane. “Hi, Leo!” they chirped as the cat leapt in. He was a ginger tabby with striking azure eyes, and a curious mark on his right cheek. He had an indigo collar, but there was no address. The only thing on his tag was a symbol of the zodiac sign Leo, so that's what Zody had come to call him. He always seemed happy and well-cared for, and Zody enjoyed his company.

His head was lowered as he padded over to Zody, who leaned down to greet him. “What do you have there?” they asked, holding out their hand. Leo dropped a large, gold pendant into their palm. “Is that a medallion?” They turned it over, and their eyes widened. “And it has my initial!” they gasped in disbelief, tracing their eyes over the chiseled letter 'Z.' For a flashing second, it felt like fate, but they wondered where the cat had found it—or from whom it had been stolen. Tomorrow, I'll try to return it, they mentally noted, pulling out a mirror and modeling the medallion.

Out of the corner of their eye, they saw a blur of orange as Leo jumped back out the window. “Hey, where are you going?” Zody called, darting to the window after him. They watched Leo take off in the yard, then reluctantly looked back towards their bedroom door. I'll be right back, Mom, they thought, slipping through the window.

They crossed the backyard and into the next, struggling to catch up with the tabby. Zody followed him through the park, behind the library, and past the grocer. It had been a few blocks, and they could not figure out where Leo was headed. The path started feeling familiar, and then the campus came into sight. Why are we going to my school?

Leo ran onto the Eridanus High School grounds, crossing the field and diving into the brush behind the stadium. He seamlessly weaved his way through the bushes and disappeared, leaving Zody to grapple with the branches and thorns. When they finally emerged from the thicket and caught up to Leo, they found themself standing in the middle of a glistening glade. Ahead of them was a silvery pillar of light, seemingly emanating from the full moon itself. Zody gazed up, unable to find its beginning or its end. They felt a tingling sensation on their neck, and looked down to realize their medallion shared that same silver glow. Distracted and baffled by the medallion, Zody looked back to find the cat staring at them, tail twitching. When they locked eyes, Leo turned on his heels and vanished into the light.

“Leo, no!” Zody's heart leapt as they watched the cat disappear into who-knows-what. Panicked, they sprang after him, throwing themself into the mysterious beam without hesitation. A glittering aura enveloped them, the top of their skin prickled, and something just beyond them seemed to hum. Zody toppled through and landed face down with a thud. They laid sprawled on the ground, waiting for the vertigo to stop. When it finally did, they lifted their head to find a blurry orange figure staring down at them. “There you are!” they exclaimed as their vision cleared. Zody struggled to their feet and scooped Leo into their arms. “But where are we?”

It was then that they became aware of their surroundings. As the light shimmered and hummed behind them, the landscape before them was awash with a celestial glow. To the east there stood a thick, conifer forest; to the west, an open field with tall, bushy trees. Just ahead was a sparkling river bending slightly between the forests, and in the distance, an ashy, blue mountain range. Amethyst clouds passed in the sky, seeming to share a pulse with the beam of light behind them.

Suddenly, a gleaming blade was thrust in their face, knocking Zody off their feet as Leo jumped out of their arms. “Don't move,” said a stern voice. Zody followed the blade to its wielder, a stout woman clad in red and gold armor, with amber eyes and a square jaw. Her piercing gaze held Zody's as she lifted the blade menacingly. Just then, the orange tabby bounded forth, placing himself between the warrior and Zody. A puzzled scowl crossed her face, until her eyes widened with a gasp. “The Leo!” Immediately, she fell to a knee and staked her sword in the ground in a salute before Leo. Zody took advantage of the moment and scrambled to their feet. “Who are you?” they asked cautiously, switching between the warrior before them and the pillar of light behind. “And what is this place?” They turned their back on the warrior to study the light.

“A better question is, who are you and how did you get here?” spat the warrior.

“I don't know,” the teenager replied, reaching towards the beam of moonlight. “I was chasing Leo and fell through the...” They trailed off, unable to describe the wisps of light that lapped at their hand.

“The portal,” the warrior offered with exasperation in her voice. “How did you know about it? Why are you here?”

Zody whipped around to face her. “I didn't know anything about this!” they yelped defensively. “I was just afraid of Leo getting hurt.”

Something flickered across the warrior's face, and she stepped back and sheathed her sword. She lifted off her ram-horned helm and held it at her hip. “My name is Agnesh, and I'm the defender of this portal.”

“I'm Zody,” they replied with a shrug, “and I'm just a freshman.”

“A what?” Agnesh asked.

Zody chuckled awkwardly and said, “Never mind. So, how do you know Leo?”

Agnesh cocked her head, seemingly amused at their question. “How can I not? He's the king of the stars.”

“He what?” Zody almost choked, throwing their hand out to gesture towards the humble tabby currently grooming himself beside them. “Him?!”
