YESS DO IT!!!

YESS DO IT!!!

Imagine the sheer Chaotic Vibes! ✨

I just had the thought that if I were to actually make Serita and Ray a couple in BRS they would be SO INSUFFERABLE TOGETHER.

It's literally the two people with the biggest egos in the city working together and just feeding off each others energy. And the SASS from those two would be insane.

But they could be really cute too....

Siblings and Questions Tag!

I saw this tag floating around here on Tumblr (notably this post) so I thought I'd give it a try! Let's go with some siblings from Supernova Initiative!

1. Who looks the most like Dad?

Jack & Cassie (biological)

Undoubtedly Jack. He has his father's bright red/auburn hair, tan white skin and brown eyes, though his clothing style (causual, typical "pilot style", with simple white shirts, leather jackets and cargo pants & boots) and general build (tall and athletic, rather than average height and very skinny), is more similar to that of his mother. His personality also strongly differs from his father's, and though he inherited his soft-spoken, bleeding heart nature, his rebellious, impulsive, and leadership tendencies come from his mother as well.

Ethean & Pax (adoptive)

Because Pax was adopted into Ethean's family by the latter's parents, there isn't a biological tie in their appearances, though Ethean & Pax do share some similar traits, mostly due to coincidence and upbriging. Despite that, because of Pax's constant efforts/need to feel like he belongs in the family, the younger boy subconsciously - and at times consciously - emulates his adoptive mother's way of dressing (formal, impeccable) and even some of her personality traits.

2. Who looks the most like mom?

Jack & Cassie (biological)

Cassie! She has their mother's voluminous, curly brown hair, warm white freckled skin, and face shape, though her eyes are brown like their father's eyes. HOWEVER. That's about it for similarities between them. Out of the two siblings, Cassie took after/imprinted on their father way more than with their mother (mostly because both Cassie and Florian, their dad, shared a passion for engineering and making robotic inventions), while Jack took after their mother and bonded more with her (because he wanted to be a rebel and a pilot like her). Not that Cassie wasn't close with their mother - or Jack with their father - but there are some clear parallels/similarities between Cassie & Florian, Jack & Lauriel, that are undeniable.

Ethean & Pax (adoptive)

Ethean longs to be the "perfect Junction soldier", much like their father, who is a respected figurehead of state in Station Nexus. He wants to make their father proud more than anything, and indeed does look like him quite a bit - dark hair, tan skin, strong features - rather than like their mother.

3. Who eats the most?

Jack & Cassie (biological)

Cassie! She's always snacking on something at any given time, from fried chips to crispy waffles, to pasta or fish sticks, there's always some kind of food/snack in her surroundings, especially when she's working on an invention. Jack doesn't eat a lot, a habit he developed during their tough childhood, and even though now they have all the food they can eat his appetite remains little, and he usually only eats some protein bars and chocolate milk between meals.

Ethean & Pax (adoptive)

They both eat a lot in different circumstances, but Pax definetly has the wildest and most voracious appetite between the two brothers.

4. Who has been on the weirdest situations?

Jack & Cassie (biological)

Both of them lol

Ethean & Pax (adoptive)

Definetly Pax!!! That boy is a trouble magnet, and Ethean is the poor soul that has to drag him out of danger most of the times, and who is also just as confused as anyone else as to how Pax got into those situations.

5. Who sleeps the most?

Jack & Cassie (biological)

Neither! They both have a tendency to go to sleep late and wake up early. Depending on the day, Cassie tends to be a bit grumpier in the morning, but not always.

Ethean & Pax (adoptive)

Pax! He loves sleeping, and often goes to sleep early and wakes up late. He is like a zombie in the mornings, especially when he has to wake up earlier than usual.

7. Most stable romantic life?

Jack & Cassie (biological)

Both of them have pretty stable/healthy romantic lives with each of their respective partners (Cassie with Artemis, Jack with Lyorna).

Ethean & Pax (adoptive)

Ethean has never dated before, because he is far too focused on his career as a fighter pilot, though most of the girls around him crush on him (he is oblivious) he has never even kissed anyone before. Pax used to be too awkward to date anyone, but then he met Tarah, who is just as awkward as he is, and now they (Pax + Tarah) have a very much lovely but awkward romance lol.

8. Worst habit of each one?

Jack & Cassie (biological)

Jack: Selfless/Self-Sacrificing to the point of being Self-Destructive, has seriously low-self esteem and lives for others

Cassie: Needs to prove herself to others (namely to her brothers) to an extreme, to the point she becomes frazzled

Ethean & Pax (adoptive)

Ethean: His sense of duty is stronger than his sense of personal identity, he wants to be an honorable soldier and that sometimes gets in the way of his personal life

Pax: Is too reckless and tends to act on impulse before thinking things through, and then panics when he gets stuck in a dangerous situation

9. Who's the most dramatic?

Jack & Cassie (biological)

It depends on the situation. Jack tends to be very chill/calm and rarely lets emotions get to him, but if he wants to he can and will put up a dramatic show, especially if it is to annoy his friends or siblings. Cassie tends to have a more dramatic streak, but similarly to Jack, only in light-hearted situations.

Ethean & Pax (adoptive)

Definetly Pax! Ethean is very down-to-earth, while Pax has a strong love for theatrics. Plus, sometimes Pax is actually, unironnically, dramatic by accident due to his anxious nature.

10. Who had a weird phase?

Jack & Cassie (biological)

... Eh, neither, I think. They didn't really have "phases" while growing up, and usually just adapted really well to different situations as time passed. However, Cassie did have a more angsty/angry/upset phase when she was around 14-15, because she was feeling betrayed by Deimos, after he left them, and subconsciously became obsessed with "proving that she was good enough", but for the most part, Jack was able to help her out of that midset. However, when Deimos returns to the group when she is 18, that aspect of her personality which she thought she'd gotten past/buried came back strongly whenever she and Deimos interacted, though it did not change her other relationships in that time of the story.

Ethean & Pax (adoptive)

Not really a "weird phase", but when he was a teen, Ethean became obsessed with philosophy and existential questions, etc. He also developed a love for conspiracy theories and a desire to navigate the unknown. He wanted to travel to new planets, and started to question if he really wanted to join the Junction's armed forces. He almost planned on running away to have a "vacation" travelling to new planets, like a backpacking year, but he decided against it because he didn't want to disappoint his parents (who were actually caring though strict and narrow-minded) and couldn't bring himself to leave Pax behind. His "free-spirited Era" was then completely quashed when he joined the Junction's Void Program to become a military fighter pilot, and he started to conform/obsessively follow the status quo in order to become an "examplary soldier" and uphold his war hero reputation.

11. Best cook of the family?

Jack & Cassie (biological)

DEFINETLY JACK. Cassie could BURN WATER if she tried. She absolutely cannot cook. Its so bad that once she ended up "banned"/grounded from cooking in their spaceship's kitchen because she burnt two sandwiches so badly the whole ship was flooded with soot and smoke. Jack isn't any Michelin-grade chef, but his cooking is actually good and while he only knows simple, more basic receipes, they're definetly edible and tasty. Meanwhile Cassie's cooking is... charred to a crisp at best and lethal at worst lmao.

Ethean & Pax (adoptive)

Neither of them are great cooks, but Ethean is actually pretty good at baking sweets, while any and all savory dishes he tries to make are either painfully bland or overseasoned. Pax probably knows the basics of the basics too, like, "how to fry an egg" or "how to make instant noodles", but that's about it.

12. Best memory together?

Jack & Cassie (biological)

Quite a few! They tend to have a "enjoy every waking moment of life" kind of mindset, which means they usually find fun in any and all situations if they try. I think that some of their best memories are their first off-world heist job with Deimos (their adoptive brother), which was the beginning of their intergalatic thieves career. They've had some pretty amazing memories after and before that too. One of those memories would be Cassie's 12th birthday, which was one of the first real birthday parties they've had since their parents died - and it was especially great for them because: 1. it was the first year Jack was able to afford giving Cassie the birthday gift she wanted, 2. Deimos, their adoptive brother, had never experienced what a human birthday was like and he had a lot of fun (Zatrians, Deimos' species, have Name-Day celebrations but they're usually solemn and very simbolic moments, very different from the way humans usually celebrate birthdays).

Ethean & Pax (adoptive)

I think that one of their best memories together was the day after Ethean returned from his first sucessful mission as a pilot - they had never been apart for that long ever since Pax was adopted by their family (the mission lasted six months off-world), so they decided to celebrate their reunion by sneaking out of the gala hosted by their family and going to an amusement park in the other side of Station Nexus. They had a lot of fun, and it was honestly one of their greatest moments together, especially since they didn't have to be perfect like they had to in front of their family and got to just have fun like proper teenagers.

13. Worst memory together?

Jack & Cassie (biological)

They grew up on the streets of Cethea III, one of the most dangerous, downtrodden and crime ridden moons on their planetary system, with no one to look out for them but each other. This means they've been through some pretty serious hardships together - especially since, destitute as they were, there was a time period where they could barely afford food or shelter. I think one of their absolutely worst memories was when Jack got very sick - and since they couldn't afford medical attention, he almost died. Deimos managed to steal some medicine for him - which did save Jack's life - but then, after delivering the medicine to Cassie, Deimos ended up caught by some Sentries and beaten up to an inch of his life. So yeah... not great times.

Ethean & Pax (adoptive)

This is a bit of a spoiler but here we go: during the events of the story, after Ethean decides to secretly disobey his orders for the first time in order to help Pax and his newfound friends, he ended up betrayed by his superiors, who had found out about his "treason" and had pretended not to know - until they sent him to a doomed mission on the Khosmonian galaxies, which was purposefully set up by them in order for the mission to go wrong and Ethean end up captured (the Junction did so because, since they didn't want to overtly kill him and get in trouble with his rich family, they decided to set him up so they could pretend he was "killed in action"). Only at the last minute did Ethean realize there was not going to be any rescue mission and that he'd been betrayed, but by that time, he ended up captured by the Khosmonian Council - who decided to interrogate him for information on the Junction (which, despite having been betrayed, he still refused to give - mostly because he knew there were innocent citizens in the Junction + his whole family and friends lived there and he couldn't possibly put their safety on jeopardy). Pax realized what had happened, and despite his friends' warnings, decided to try and rescue him alone. Which was a very bad idea because he then ended up captured himself and forced to witness Ethean's torture (and the aftermath) - which was, even by Khosmonian standards, pretty gruesome (so much so that Ethean permanently lost a leg because of it). Luckily their friends were able to rescue them both alive, but the event left the duo (especially Pax) seriously traumatized and took a lasting toll.

14. Dream trip together

Jack & Cassie (biological)

Exploring both galaxies and visiting new, uncharted planets, as well as some known ones. As the story progresses, they end up doing precisely that, though while attempting to stop a civil war and being hunted down by a dystopic regime. Still, travel is travel, right lol?

Ethean & Pax (adoptive)

When they were teens, they always planned on leaving Station Nexus and just roaming around the galaxies freely, especially to visit/see some far away nebulas in the neighbouring planetary system.

15. Would you rather not being able to shower for a month or have the same clothes for a month?

Jack & Cassie (biological)

They have already done both in the past (again, they were street urchins for a huge chunk of their childhood), and they would probably absolutely hate even the thought of doing something like that again. If they had to choose, I think they would choose the "same clothes for a month" because then they can still wash said clothes every day and take showers everyday, while the alternative would be much ickier in their opinion.

Ethean & Pax (adoptive)

I think Ethean would also choose the "same clothes for a month" option in a hypothetical scenario, because in reality he is always prepared and always packs at least 5 changes of clothes when he travels. Meanwhile, Pax would probably start overthinking the question and eventually trail off into different topics without finding or choosing an answer lol.

16. Who's the older one?

Jack & Cassie (biological)

Jack is 7 years older than Cassie. When they were orphaned he was 13 and she was 6. In the current timeline of the story, Jack is 25 and Cassie is 18. (Jack raised Cassie on his own ever since they were orphaned, because they had no living relatives to take care of them. When he was 15, they met Deimos Soll, who was 16, and who became his best friend and their adoptive brother, helping him raise Cassie)

Ethean & Pax (adoptive)

Ethean is 8 years older than Pax, and in the current timeline of the story Ethean is 27 and Pax 19. When Pax was adopted by Ethean's family, Pax was 4 and Ethean 12.

17. Describe each other in three words

Jack & Cassie (biological)

Jack would describe Cassie as: Bubbly, Energetic and Smart

Cassie would describe Jack as: Kind, Protective and Stubborn

Ethean & Pax (adoptive)

Ethean would describe Pax as: Reckless, Anxious and Funny

Pax would describe Ethean as: Popular, Righteous and Empathetic

18. Role model?

Jack & Cassie (biological)

Jack's Role Model: Their late mother

Cassie's Role Model: Jack is her number one role model and someone she looks up to greatly/wants to make proud. Another role model of hers is their late father.

Ethean & Pax (adoptive)

Ethean's Role Model: His parents, especially his father, whom he looks up to and often tries to emulate.

Pax's Role Model: Their mother, someone he subconsciously wants to be like and is always trying to get her approval. He also looks up to Ethean a lot, who is kind of like a hero to him, especially because of his reputation as a literal war hero.

19. Who usually has the worst ideas?

Jack & Cassie (biological)

Both of them, in different circumstances lol. HOWEVER - while Jack occasionally has bad ideas and is reckless with his safety, he is usually the more responsible one, and Cassie definetly takes the cake as the most gremlin-like of the two when it comes to causing chaos. She has a very "oh I wonder what this does" attitude to anything in life and no common sense whatsoever.

Ethean & Pax (adoptive)

PAX. DEFINETLY PAX. ALWAYS PAX. That boy is the human embodiment of an orange cat with a Single Braincell TM, and that combined with his need for approval and adventure is like a time bomb for chaos, especially since he ALMOST NEVER thinks things through before acting out his plans. He should not be left unsupervised lol. Ethean is super responsible, down-to-earth and pragmatic, and Pax is basically his opposite, which makes Ethean really struggle to keep him out of trouble - think like, an Anakin & Obi Wan dynamic except without the betrayal and angst.

20. A GIANT insect is on the wall, who's taking care of it?

Jack & Cassie (biological)

Oh, 100% Cassie. Jack has some serious insectophobia and he especially hates flying insects or uncanny ones. If he walked into the room and saw one he would just go "NOPE" and walk out of there so fast he'd basically teleport somewhere else, fully ready to be like "the spaceship is now yours, insect!". Cassie will probably get one of her robotic creations to smack the living crap out of the offending insect so they can carry on with their lives normaly afterwars.

Ethean & Pax (adoptive)

... None of them are very brave when it comes to bugs and insects, especially roaches and beetles, except they don't really mind spiders and scorpions. If its the latter, they'll probably scoop up the insect and kindly yeet it outside without squishing it. If its a roach or a moth however... that's a whole different issue. Pax would probably goad Ethean into killing the bug like "oh, so you're a war hero but can't handle a roach?" while hiding behind a door or wardrobe. Ethean would be determined to prove him wrong like, "fuck it, Imma kill this bug" then walk towards the insect with the hesitation of a thousand anxieties, wielding a broom. If the bug doesn't fly, he'll probably be able to squash it. But... if it does fly, oh both of those boys are ✨RUNNING AS FAST AS HUMANLY POSSIBLE✨ out of that room and will probably wait until the bug leaves on its own.

I'll go with some of the villains from Supernova Initiative, and Scrapyard Boys, @leahnardo-da-veggie

(Supernova Initiative)

For this WIP we have characters like:

The Director: a man responsible for countless illegal experiments conducted on LIVING HUMANOID BEINGS with full government funding, a man who tortured multiple people - especially a 25-year-old young man (Jack) whose little sister he had threatened with violence - for FUN, under the guise of "seeking scientific progress". Someone who is behind multiple corrupt colonization efforts on foreign planets, efforts which led to a series of brutal genocides along with lasting ecological damages. A man who kidnapped two innocent twin kids from an endangered civilization, and turned one of them into a supersoldier - later brainwashing him to forget his twin and his past once he grew up - and kept the other as a control test subject? Someone known for actively funding terrorist organizations and planning to instigate a civil war to sell his inventions?

Eldora: a warlord lady who betrayed and conquered her own people, slandering their ancient and peaceful way of life in the name of gaining power through warfare. A woman who forced the prince of the province she conquered to marry her and provide her with an heir - while later proving to be incredibly physically and mentally abusive to both her husband and the son they had together, whom she saw as a disappointment. Someone who killed her own husband two years after he tried to run away from her torturous grasp with their kid son, letting him die a slow and brutal death by poisoning in front of their boy. A warlord known for torturing and brainwashing prisoners of war, and who kidnapped Deimos Soll - a talented marksman - to try and turn him into her thrall, and then haunting his whole existence after he managed to escape.

Red Adder & Arachnys: The most vicious crime couple in all of the galaxies, the King and Queen of organized crime, a woman and a man capable of such destruction even the most powerful governments and dignitaries do not dare to intervene with their schemes. A duo involved in slave trades, drug trafficking, organ and cybernetic parts harvesting from living beings, racketeering, and all the workings of the criminal underworld. The owners of the most infamous brothels and strip clubs in the galaxies, where they employ captured slaves and thrilled sentient robots forced to obey their commands.

(Scrapyard Boys)

Jake Acheron - A corrupt billionaire raised on a silver spoon, Jake inherited his family's shady dealings and their business, which thrived and expanded under his management, much to the suffering of the city of New Omnium. Known to the world as a reclusive philanthropist, Jake is actually a brutal man who cares little about regular people and who considers mutants as a plague - despite being one himself. He funds the PHANTOM Industries and the Spectre Academies' horrible secret experiments and trials, all to boost his financial power and influence over the city. He is also not above hunting down and torturing anyone who gets in his way, even teenagers like Valen and his friends. Responsible for multiple crimes, with the most notable being murder, torture and money laundering, there is no line Jake will not cross.

Dr. Gladys Murklins - A celebrated and psychotic scientist, Gladys has been the cause of many tragedies, including the death of her former best friend and business partner, Cain Richards, after she set fire to his laboratory with him trapped inside, which traumatized and orphaned his daughter, Saoirse. Gladys is also the head of PHANTOM Industries' effort to great the best super serum in the world, as well as creating other, highly dangerous drugs to "keep the population in check." She's known for a falsely charismatic personality, which hides a horribly sadistic nature and a very amoral scientific outlook. Gladys also knowingly tortures, experiments and drives insane many of the unlucky mutant teenagers (those rejected by the Spectre Academy or picked off from the street) to fuel her scientific pursuits and create a new generation of "superheroes". She tortured and almost drove insane Josh Aleta, Erin Stellern's foster cousin, after the teenager accidentally witnessed something he shouldn't have.

Zander - A retired mob boss and now pimp, Zander holds the criminal underworld of New Ominium in the palm of his hand, being the mentor and patron of a new generation of mobster wannabes, while also remaining rich as can be. A highly perverted and twisted individual, he is known for sexually harassing and coercing his employees, while basically keeping them tied to indenture contracts that are nigh unbreakable. One of his most notable employees is Adrien Rosetrom, after Rhys & Gwyn's half-brother who became indebted to the mob and was forced to become a stripper to survive rather than be killed by Zander's goons.
