Thanks For The Ask, @kaylinalexanderbooks!!! And That's A Great Question!

Thanks for the ask, @kaylinalexanderbooks!!! And that's a great question!

It does have multiple galaxies. Both the Junction and the Khosmonians rule over specific galaxy clusters, each cluster having around a few dozen galaxies, though the main storyline takes place within around 3-5 main ones give or take.

As for how intergalactic travel works, there are a few, main ways: some rare, cutting-edge starships are equipped with a special hyperdrive capability that can take them to other galaxies by exploiting wormholes but that's hella expensive. There are also official "portals" that connect the galaxies by a similar technology that those spaceships use, except those portals can help transport even common, non-intergalactic starships/spaceships through the wormholes with no danger and are a lot cheaper, so that's how the main bulk of intergalactic travel takes place, through those portals/terminals!

Currently, the Khosmonian Galaxies and the Junction Systems are at war with each other, as they have opposing political views and both want the territory the other has, as well as both have an age-old feud between each other, and countless lives have already been lost because of it, but the main cast has found a way to maybe, finally bring peace to both sides, though it will definitely be a struggle.

🌹 Who's the flirty one and who gets shy and flustered?

Thanks for the ask, @kaylinalexanderbooks!

I'll go with some of the couples from Supernova Initiative!

🌹 Who's the flirty one and who gets shy and flustered?

SUPERNOVA INITIATIVE

Jack & Lyorna

Flustered/Shy One - Jack. Despite being very extroverted and outspoken, Jack is incredibly awkward and shy when it comes to matters of romance. It is partly due to the fact that he is a strongly sex-repulsed asexual who feels too uncomfortable to try and flirt, but also because his self-esteem isn't the best so he doesn't even consider himself flirting with someone as a plausible course of action. He is also, despite his adventurous lifestyle, completely inexperienced (not naive though, he probably knows more than he should lol) when it comes to matters of sex and romance.

Flirty One - Lyorna. But in like a sweet and endearing way. She is aware of Jack's shyness when it comes to flirting and romance, and so her "flirts" with him are generally on the more wholesome, cutesy side, y'know. Like, she loves showing him that she appreciates the things he does and always tries to lift up his self-esteem when she can through subtle ways, so her flirting mostly comes through as a supportive friendship with romantic moments, and Jack rather likes it as it is, even though he was initially clueless to her advances at first. Now, he has gotten to the point where he himself engages in this form of "flirting" with Lyorna, something he would have never have considered possible.

Relationship Song - La Da Dee - Cody Simpson

Vesper & Deimos

Flustered/Shy One - Both (most of the time). Both Deimos and Vesper are pretty emotionally stunted young adults with painfully introverted personalities who often come across as either too harsh, awkward, or strange to strangers. When they first met and had to work together, they weren't even friends, they had a rivalry (like, "I don't like you cause I don't want to" type of rivalry), but begrudgingly realized they had started to care for each other and had no idea what to do with that information for a long, long while lol.

Flirty One - Vesper (on rare occasions lol). She was the first one to verbalize/act out her feelings towards Deimos, though her first attempt was pretty harsh/unromantic (it was very much a "shut up you idiot I fucking love you!" moment, because she hadn't meant to say it, and he didn't know how to react cause he realized he felt like that too). After that she was also the first one to try and be a bit more flirty, though both of them continued equally awkward in their own ways.

Relationship Song - I'm a Mess - Bebe Rexha

Noctus & Aleks

Flustered/Shy One - Noctus. He is very much a serious, "by the book" secret agent who has spent his entire life (that he remembers of) following orders and being the Junction's perfect soldier. He had never considered love and romance as a factor he desired in his life, and when he first met Aleks he considered the bubbly troublemaker as unbearable, but grumpily found himself falling for him regardless. And later, much to his own surprise, found himself breaking protocol for the first time in his life in order to side with and save the love of his life and his friends.

Flirty One - Aleks. He is a very forward, funny kind of guy who is rather vocal about his feelings. Being a "prankster" type, Aleks is more than definitely the kind of young adult who makes suggestive jokes that often come across as the stupidest things in the world (deez nuts kind of jokes, for reference). This is part of the reason why the secret agent was often so exasperated by him and found him so insufferable. Aleks made his attraction to Noctus pretty clear from week one, though initially, he was actually just joking with the "uptight secret agent babysitting the crew" but later found himself actually meaning it.

Pax & Tarah

Flustered/Shy One - Pax. He is a young space cadet who has never dated before in his life and though he is very much up for "breaking the rules" and getting into trouble, Pax is also very much not ready for the level of recklessness and sheer dangerous excitement Gabi has to offer, which makes some of their interactions pretty interesting. Pax does try to be flirty on occasion but those attempts mostly come across as endearingly awkward.

Flirty One -Tarah. She is a very blunt, "speak things as they are" kind of girl, having been raised to be no-nonsense and generally direct. Though her attempts at flirting were initially as awkward as Pax's she quickly got better at it and now is the most forwardly romantic one of the duo - she also is the one who has the most "date ideas", though those ideas often involve at least some form of danger for her to consider them "thrilling enough" lol.

New Tag Game! OC's 'Most Important' Tag!

Rules: Make a list (detailed or not!) of the most important people, events/moments, places, and anything else that shaped your characters into who they are now, describing how/why.

DISCLAIMER: The "most important" here means "most impactful" - the people, places, and events that had the biggest impact on the character's life. And that impact can be both POSITIVE or NEGATIVE!

I'll go first with the protagonist of Supernova Initiative!

Jack Tithus:

Most Important People

(Positive)

Cassiopeia Tithus (younger sister): Cassie is, by far, one of the, if not The most important person in Jack's life. Not that he consciously picks favorites, but he has devoted his entire life to keeping her safe and happy after their parents were killed by the Junction because she's the only family he has left and he promised he would protect her On another note, she is also the "heart" of the group - she's always happy, seeing the best in every situation no matter how bleak - and that optimism makes living in the bleak galaxy they live in more bearable for everyone around her.

Deimos Soll (adoptive brother): Deimos has been Jack's best friend and adoptive brother ever since the day they met when they were teens. Their bond, despite all their differences and arguments in the present, is still just as strong as it used to be in the past - as much as it is a bit awkward at times due to the time they've spent together. Deimos was the only friend his age (Jack is 25, Deimos is 26, they were 15 and 16 when they met) that Jack had for a long time, which on its own was something he was glad to have - but he legitimately became family to both Jack and Cassie. For all his stubborn faults, Deimos is fiercely loyal, and he cares a lot for the people he loves, a trait he shares with Jack as well.

Florian & Lauriel Tithus (parents): Though they were only alive for a small portion of his lifetime - mostly his childhood - they did have some considerably formative influence on his morality and good-hearted nature, as they taught him to always fight against injustice and stand up for those who need help, as well as reminded him that family is the most important thing in his life. He had a very close bond with their mother, Lauriel, who was a pilot and taught him how to fly a spaceship expertly, while Cassie bonded more with their father, who was an aspiring inventor.

(Negative)

Cethea III's mob bosses: Those guys were part of the reason why Jack's teenage years and overall life in Cethea III were so dangerous. Since Jack and his siblings were pretty much destitute after their life as they knew it came crashing down because of the Junction, they - and especially him - had to get resourceful. Jack became an errand boy and messenger for some of the low-ranking crime factions of the moon (most notably the faction known as the Onyx Strikers), in exchange for a pitiful amount of units, which - as little as it was - was still better than nothing. That's also how he got the skills he would later hone and use to become the renowned intergalactic thief, but that 'talent' came with a hefty toll.

The Director: The head of the Junctions Sciences and Bioengineering department and overall a very respected and influential politician, businessman, and public figure, the Director isn't just Jack's archnemesis throughout this story - he's also, directly, Jack's torturer, as - while the crew was begrudgingly working for the Junction- he subjected the young thief to many unethical scientific experiments. This is a source of considerable torment, distress, and overall inner conflict for Jack, as he not only has to find a way to free himself and his crew and fight against the Junction but also has to grapple with the fear that the experiments may be already changing him somehow.

Most Important Places (to his story)(:

The Junction

Cethea III

The Khosmonian Galaxies

Most Important Moments/Events:

The death of his parents, killed by the Junction after joining a local rebel effort against it;

Growing up on the crime-ridden streets of Cethea III with his siblings, and getting involved in the moon's criminal underworld;

Developing a considerable reputation and becoming an influential intergalactic thief in his early 20s;

The argument with Deimos, after which the duo (Jack & Cassie) and Deimos parted ways due to different opinions on the recently started civil war;

Being captured by the Junction along with his crew (Inciting Incident of the series!), which led him to accept a shady deal with the Director (make one final heist, this time for the Junction, not against it, in exchange for their lives);

Being forced to become one of the Director's test subjects after the man threatened to do the same to Cassie;

Freeing himself and his crew from the Junction and joining a rebel effort to stop the civil war from escalating and ending the corruption of both the Junction and the Khosmonian sides.

Anything Else That's Important:

His Crew/Friends: Jack is, first and foremost, a natural leader and a protector, who cares deeply for the people he trusts and loves. His team/crew, which is composed of his closest friends, is like a family to him - and though that friendship can at times be chaotic and strained, they're still always going to be there for each other no matter what. And that friendship is also a factor for character growth to pretty much every member of the main cast as well, including him.

Freedom: Jack values freedom in life almost more than anything - it's a close second in his list of priorities for sure - and has a very fiery personality. He despises being told what to do by people who want to control him or by those who think they're better than him or than others, and this causes him to have a very relentlessly rebellious spirit.

Villain Sneak Peek (Supernova Initiative) - Red Adder & Arachnys

════════════════════════════════════════════

☆ ・・About/General Info ・・☆

The most dangerous and infamous power couple in both the Junction and Khosmonian Galaxies, Ciara (alias - Red Adder), and her husband, Evander (alias - Arachnys), are the bosses of the ruthless Saphir crime family - they own most of the sprawling criminal underworld with almost nothing from the shady side of the law that they don't somewhat control. Basically, they are the Queen and King of organized crime in both galactic systems. They're also the founders of the conglomerate that owns the illegal, shady clubs responsible for the disappearance of Tarah's best friend and are also the sponsors of Meridian Shardd's inventor. A lot of other lowlifes, mobsters and space pirates in the series answer to them and cause a lot of trouble to the main cast.

Ciara wears dark clothes, often choosing stylish black-tie style clothing, especially dresses, with a white, silk jacket on top and killer heels.

Character Introduction - Vesper Foxx

If you like this, please REBLOG! 💕

☆・・Aesthetic/Moodboard ・・☆

════════════════════════════════════════════

☆ ・・About/General Info ・・☆

Possibly one of the most tragic characters in this series, Vesper is also the most lethal and infamous assassin in all nearby galaxies, having built her reputation by bringing a brutally bloody demise to those who threaten or harm innocents. She was once an innocent and kind-hearted young girl who would have never dreamed of hurting anyone - but when the Junction sent raiders to pillage and conquer her planet, everything Vesper ever knew came crashing down around her. Traumatized by having witnessed the brutal death of her older brother, Atherys, after losing sight of their mother in the chaos, Vesper couldn't move on and eventually left everything behind - including her younger sister and their cousin - to pursue a path of revenge, going as far as to 'upgrade' her mortal body to that of an indestructible cyborg over the years. She became the most feared woman alive, bringing destruction and horror to those who did the same to her. But deep down, despite all her anger and bitterness, Vesper still has the same heart of gold and loyal spirit as she had all those years ago, which becomes apparent after she - unexpectedly - finds herself caring for the crew of misfits she begrudgingly joined. And this time, she'll be able to do what she was helpless to in the past - and keep this newfound family safe.

════════════════════════════════════════════

☆・・More Info ・・☆

Pronouns - She/Her

Age - 25

Current Role - Part of the main cast

Appearance - Vesper has short and straight black hair, meticulously cut into a stylish yet practical bob. Her skin is pale white, having a peculiar mix of the paper-white artificial skin of her new robot/cyborg parts and her natural grey skin tone. Due to her "upgraded" physique, she is unnaturally strong - much more than any regular human would be able to be - while looking jarringly (when considering her superhuman strength) petite. Vesper has sharp rows of teeth, like a shark, but her smile - which is an incredibly rare sight, since she has an infamously bad mood - is incredibly kind and soft. Her eyes were once pitch-black, but due to her cyborg implants, they now glow a bright neon blue, having the capability to zoom in on targets like a camera and - on rare occasions - connect to databases. Vesper is 5,2ft or around 159cm. Her outfits are typically dark, practical, and bulletproof, often in combinations of either dark grey, black, dark green, or just pearl white, depending on her mood, and her combat boots have motorized wheels on them that give her incredible speed.

Personality Types -

✶ Enneagram: 3w4

✶ MBTI: ISTJ

Occupation: Assassin, Killer for Hire, Vengeful Rebel

Species & Place of Birth: Biological - Melieth (alien), Artificial - Cyborg; Acaeth (rocky planet)
