The Trigant’s appearance in ‘The Might of the Inspector’ was commentary on modern-day slavery,
since the Trigant was chained to the transformed planetoid created by the Circuit Knights, and that the Sergeant was using it to power his superweapon that would have turned the Earth into a Circuit Chap planet.

being a complete idiot and deciding to both take the star saber's name literally and use the line from the covenant of primus about the requiem blaster drawing power from the hearts of stars to give them ridiculous numbers in my fic
(the star saber's blade being 15 million kelvin and its blade-cast wave attack things being something like 210,000K, and the requiem blaster's beams being 10 million kelvin, which are both utterly stupid)
in my defense, both were made by the primes to fight unicron. And since the earth's core is about 5400C and jupiter's is 19700C, unicron needs to be able to withstand at least that much temperature in order to eat them without being damaged (ignoring paracausality and magic), therefore the star saber and requiem blaster's attacks need to be hot enough to overcome that heat resistance
(as to how people can wield them without immediately melting themselves and everything around them into slag and also not cause atmospheric ignition I'm handwaving it as the weapons creating some kind of field around the blade/beam that prevents the heat from conducting/radiating into the surrounding atmosphere
and "no one knows how it works and it's one of the reasons people think the primes were real and also gods/demigods" and "atheistic theories of cybertronian history posit that the primes/guiding hand/alternity/cloud/covenant/etc were simply cybertronians that had reached class 12/1 on the technological development scale and become capable of manipulating the physical forces of reality")

finally, the second installment of Eda interacting with @cuppajj's Lost Light titanformer. it's not as long as the first part, I think, but I had this specific scene in my head and badly wanted to write it despite not having the energy or competence for the longest time. hopefully I did alright.
•••
Though the Lost Light and its crew had been at veritable rest for quite some time now on a strange planetoid within the deep reaches of space, the sole inhabitant of the small world seemed unbothered by their presence, if not somewhat welcoming. He was, for the admittedly short time since he’d approached the co-Captains and crew, predominantly antisocial, but he’d made it known that their often rambunctious company was burdensome to neither himself nor his home.
His home was very strange. One could swear the lightless asteroid possessed a faint aura, one that often seemed to soothe the more restless crewmembers and keep nearly everyone at ease in such a way that did not feel intrusive or inherently unnatural, if one did not think about it too hard. Spirits remained at a constant yet not manic high, and by that metric the prospect of leaving was not something that many had yet considered.
With any luck, that was destined to change.
There was one particular cycle that everything seemed... off. It began very subtly, that aura of comfort dulling down over the course of several hours until it became more of a haze, something that made the constant night seem darker and weighed down every spark with fragments of their burdens which had gone unaddressed and unresolved.
Even the ship’s ever-cheerful cartographer, Lightlost, seemed plagued by that unseen force - and was one of the few to notice that Eda was nowhere to be found. Even though the crew was spread across the planetoid, no one had seen him at all.
"Lightlost."
Until, of course, they themselves were sought out.
"You are a cartographer, yes?"
Lightlost turned - his voice had come from behind - and faced a very dour Eda, his sporting whimsy and near-constant grin both absent. He likely was not exempt from the effects of the strange planetoid, either.
"I am," they responded.
"Then perhaps these are something you might appreciate," followed Eda, offering a rather large cylindrical carrying case that seemed a proper size in his hand, but in truth was nearly as tall as Lightlost. "It is yours, if you want it."
Lightlost took the tube - it seemed strangely old, so they held it gently despite its size - and with some effort unscrewed the top. Inside was a sheet of metal, thin enough to be rolled up for storage yet sturdy enough that when Lightlost extracted it from the tube it proved difficult to unroll, so much so that Eda had to assist momentarily, and it was an effort to prevent it from springing closed again.
When it finally was unrolled, however, it proved a rather intriguing sight. It was a star chart, centralized largely around Cybertron and labeled in Primal Vernacular, with a few crudely-scratched corrections and notations in a glyphic language Lightlost did not recognize. Due to its sheer size, it took a moment before they recognized how old this chart was, and markings they first assumed were simply incorrect were in truth heavily outdated; none of the colony worlds were included because it predated them outright.
This was a map, yes, but it was first and foremost a priceless Cybertronian artifact in near-perfect condition, and Eda was giving it away - giving it to Lightlost - without so much as a second thought.
"Wh..." they began, nearly lost for words. "Where did you get this?"
"Trion fashioned it for my personal use, though I have never found a reason for it," Eda stated flatly. "To have consulted with any of the others posed a great personal risk, but he was a scribe, not an astronomer. I could manage far better without it."
Trion. As in Alpha Trion. As in one of the First Thirteen.
"H- You... I-" Lightlost stammered, countless questions and conclusions running through their processor, overwhelmed with the gravity of the gift they'd been so casually, almost flagrantly given. They were caught between how did you know the Primes and what were you doing on Cybertron and if you once lived on Cybertron why do you now live here, but for the moment could only stare slack-jawed at the ancient star chart.
Eda seemed to deflate further at their reaction. "Forgive me, if this is not to your liking-"
"This belongs in a museum, Eda!" Lightlost exclaimed, thrusting the map towards Eda but stopping short of touching his frame, fearful they might damage it despite its durability. "I can't accept this!"
That, judging from how he recoiled slightly, optics widening, was not the reaction he had expected.
"I am... honored?" Eda began, caught off guard and bewildered. "I was unaware that any of my impedimenta could possess such value."
Then he gently pushed the map back towards Lightlost, expression softening in the wake of his surprise.
"Perhaps that is all the more reason it belongs in your custody; there is no one who could care for or appreciate it as you will. You may do as you wish with it, so long as its fate is yours to decide.”
As Eda spoke, he gently took the edges of the map where Lightlost still held them, and guided the metal sheet back into its prior cylindrical conformation, making sure it did not snap closed and that Lightlost maintained their hold upon it as he did so.
Lightlost looked at the rolled-up map, honored and humbled and awed almost beyond words, then looked back up at Eda.
"Thank you," they said, after a moment. "I will do my best to be worthy of your trust."
They could have sworn his initial reaction was one of incalculable distress, but then at last Eda smiled - and he seemed so melancholy, verging on sorrowful, something profoundly genuine on a level Lightlost rarely witnessed.
"You are too kind," he said.
---
Later that evening, when the majority of the crew either had returned to their rooms or still lingered at Swerve's, Lightlost's thoughts drifted back to earlier - predominantly, to all their unanswered questions.
They glanced at Eda's star chart - theirs, now - across the room. As soon as Lightlost had decided where they wanted it hung, Eda had instantly offered to help, holding it in place as Lightlost affixed it to the wall and covered it with a large armorglass panel (as it was in a public area, and though Lightlost cared immensely for their crew they were not ignorant to their occasionally rapacious tendencies). Everyone had seemed fascinated and amazed by it, kept asking where it came from to which they answered it was a gift from Eda, and for quite awhile Eda was subsequently hounded with inquiries not only for more of his belongings but also how he came to have them... which was a good question. If he'd known the Primes, that made him easily older than the vast majority of the crew. Was he older than the Primes, even?
Their optics were drawn to where Alpha Trion's mapping was intersected with those odd notations. They could not read what the glyphs said, but Lightlost could tell they were corrections, written by someone else; if it was Eda's map, perhaps he had written them? How did he have such knowledge of the stars prior to early Cybertronian expansionism - or were they written afterwards, in which case, was that how he'd found this place? What had led him to live here, of all places, instead of Cybertron or one of the colonies - and why was he alone?
It was amidst these questions that Lightlost at last recognized that the haze about the planetoid, which had earlier beleaguered themselves and the crew, had inexorably lifted - and they realized it traced back to moments after the spirits of planetoid's sole inhabitant had themselves been lifted. When his mood had improved, it seemed, the rest of the small world had followed suit, as if his mood alone determined the effects imposed on everyone else...
Who is Eda, really?

So, uhh, Humans did what they called an "oopsie"
They can turn off stars.
When they elaborated on how their reactors work - true nuclear fusion - they also explained, before the delegates passed out, that their failsafes include high density convection inhibitor rods that shoot out if the power output exceeds what it is currently set to. Except if a manual Overload protocol is engaged. You know, in case they need to go to 400% power. At the risk of blowing up everything. Psychopaths.
Then one of them had an idea. Another phrase the Galaxy must learn to look out for and try to persuade the human who uttered it to not do the idea. They'll still do it, of course, Humans are stubborn like that.
So, some of their ships can transform and double as Warp Gates. Truly fascinating technology, capable only through their absurd energy generation methods and reckless disregard for how the Universe works. They even gave us the blueprints. We thanked them, politely, but we'll have to figure out a safe way to do it first.
Currently their Warp Gates can only make a stable connection to the gravitational center of a large celestial body. As in - stars. Their reactors house miniature stars. They turn those off shockingly regularly for maintenance. One of the few things most of the Galaxy is better than Humanity is making things that don't break themselves through normal operation, but then what's "normal" for them is "excessively insane" to us.
This Human wanted to see what would happen if they sent a big pile of their convection inhibitor rods through a Warp Gate. "Fuck around and find out" is the expression they used, if we are recalling the words correctly.
Well, everyone "found out" that, yes, it actually works, and surprisingly quickly too. The chosen star was a distant Red Dwarf with only uninhabitable planetoids and some asteroid belts and no recorded stations within the system. It took about a week for the first signs of decreased activity to become barely noticeable. It hasn't been long enough to fully end the fusion cycle, but all observations point to the Red Dwarf becoming the first of its kind to retain enough hydrogen to do... we're actually not sure how that will unfold over the coming few million years.
Thankfully, the Human who had the idea was disappointed the star didn't just poof like their contained reactor ones do. The material cost and lengthy process also made it clear it has no real practical application.
Still, technically they can prematurely begin the end cycle of a stars lifespan.
Those of us with more active imaginations might find it hard to sleep at night knowing that, clearly, no Human idea will be left untested...
Oh FUCK! What if th- No. When they fine tune their Warp Gates, could they just send anything anywhere? We're screwed if Humanity ever gets angry.

⚷ Chiron (The Wounded Healer) ⚷
Tumblr media
⚷ Brief Introduction ⚷
In Greek mythology, Chiron's mother was a water nymph who turned herself into a horse while trying to run from Zeus' amorous overtures. She was not able to escape. She later became pregnant with Zeus's offspring, and when she gave birth, she was shocked to see that her newborn was half horse, half boy. The mother was so terrified that she prayed to the gods to be changed into a tree. Her wish was granted. Thus, both of Chiron's parents abandoned him. Despite his pain and sorrow, he became a skilled teacher and healer. One day, while he was handing a poisoned arrow to a student, it dropped and pierced his leg. As the son of a god, he was immortal, yet he was still made of flesh and blood; The pains of the poison coursing through his body made him suffer greatly. In terrible pain, he prayed to the gods to let him die. In gratitude for his teachings, they granted his wish and placed him in the sky.
Chiron is the wounded healer. This planetoid is for everyone who, rather than giving into despair amid their suffering, reaches out so others will not have to experience the pain they've felt. This can especially be seen in people who have had a painful childhood and go on to be psychiatrists, therapists, or counselors. These people feel the influence of Chiron. It can be healing for a person to help others cope with a pain that they have lived through.
As such, the sign and house Chiron resides in and how well (or not so well) it is aspected will shed light on our wounds. It helps us identify them, what/where they are hurting the most, and conversely, how to heal, transform and move on.
⚷ Chiron through the Houses ⚷
Chiron in the 1st house:
Chiron indicates that the native's wounds are related to their appearance and self-expression. Your self-confidence may have taken a severe hit at a young age. People with this placement were, in many cases, shy children. They were afraid of putting themselves out there and going after their dreams. As a child, you see only the negative in yourself. Chiron in this house can feel like you were observing your reflection in a distorting mirror. Having a clear sense of self is hard. Often, the environment could be more supportive too, and you get little positive encouragement. Because of this, working on your self-esteem is a must as an adult. You may feel unwanted, unattractive, or unworthy of acknowledgment and love. This placement can also indicate that you think that you are not allowed to enjoy life. You have to have faith in yourself and find power in your life choices. Living passively and with regret would be a common mistake and habit you need to break. You feel pain in being you, and remaining authentic to yourself instead of embodying someone else's projection would be transformative. Taking action and being unapologetic is critical to breaking yourself out of the mold. You help others do transformative work by leading as an example. You can become the image of someone who triumphs in life despite all obstacles.
Chiron in the 2nd house:
Chiron in the 2nd house raises issues around self-worth and self-value. Those with this placement may have experienced some form of trauma or wound around their finances or possessions, leaving them feeling insecure about their worthiness. This can manifest in various ways, including overspending or undervaluing oneself in relationships or career choices. However, these individuals can learn to heal and cultivate healthy self-esteem and self-worth with awareness and introspection. Despite the challenges, it's worth noting that Chiron in the 2nd house can also bring a unique gift of healing regarding self-worth and value issues. This placement can inspire a deeper understanding of one's true worth and the importance of self-care. Additionally, it can lead to a career or calling in the healing arts or counseling, allowing individuals to help others heal their own self-worth and value struggles.
Chiron in the 3rd house:
Chiron in the 3rd house holds various implications. First, this placement suggests that the person may have experienced some injury or trauma concerning their communication, learning, or sibling relationship. Consequently, they may have difficulty expressing themselves effectively or understanding others' perspectives. However, this placement also offers an opportunity for deep healing and growth through developing better communication skills and learning to accept and love oneself despite past hurts. Individuals with Chiron in the 3rd house may find themselves drawn to healing professions or have a natural talent for teaching and mentoring others. Moreover, this placement can be challenging but ultimately transformative, providing the potential for profound personal growth and healing. By embracing their wounds and working towards healing, individuals with this placement can develop greater self-awareness, empathy, and compassion toward others. Ultimately, the journey toward healing and growth can be challenging, but it can also lead to significant personal transformation and a deeper understanding of oneself and others.
Chiron in the 4th house:
Chiron in the 4th house can be challenging. This is because it often brings past wounds and emotional trauma related to one's family and home environment. Those with this placement may need to work hard to heal and process these issues to find a sense of emotional security and stability.

This can manifest in various ways, including issues with trust, boundaries, and intimacy in adult relationships. However, with awareness and effort, this placement can bring profound healing and a sense of inner strength and resilience.

The positioning of Chiron in the 5th house indicates a profoundly ingrained wound or trauma closely related to self-expression and creativity. Individuals with this particular placement may have undergone experiences of rejection or criticism in their artistic pursuits, which could have led to a persistent fear of expressing their creativity or putting themselves out there in a vulnerable manner. However, this placement can also signify a potential for healing through creative expression. By embracing their unique talents and gifts, individuals with Chiron in the 5th house can discover a profound sense of purpose and fulfillment in their creative pursuits. It is essential to acknowledge that it may take considerable time and effort to overcome the wounds and insecurities associated with this placement. Still, with patience and self-compassion, it is possible to transcend the challenges and tap into the transformative power of the 5th house. The journey toward healing and self-discovery may not be easy, but it is undoubtedly worth it.
Chiron in the 6th house:
This placement of Chiron suggests pain related to criticism and feeling that you are not good enough. You feel that you don't fit in the workplace, are inadequate, or are unfit to oversee tasks. You tend to take criticism too seriously, especially when you are still learning and honing your skills. However, none of us is perfect. Pain related to loss of health is also possible. Keep a sense of awareness of mental health. When in a bad mental state, there's a tendency to develop feelings of loneliness, isolation, self-criticism, and Stockholm syndrome. Breaking the cycles of self-sabotage and depreciation is key to improving resolve and creating a positive internal monologue. However, with this particular house, there is a great potential for transformation and healing to occur. Individuals with this placement may be drawn towards alternative healing modalities or find that helping others with their health and work issues brings them a sense of fulfillment and purpose. For those with this placement to thrive, it is essential for them to prioritize self-care and find work that aligns with their values and passions. By doing so, they can turn their past wounds into strengths and contribute to the greater good.

They may discover that they are naturally drawn to partners who reflect their wounds, which can present a unique opportunity for healing and growth. In addition, they may have to improve their sense of self-worth and relationship independence to avoid falling into codependent patterns. Having Chiron in the 7th house can undoubtedly be a challenging placement, but it can also open avenues for profound healing and transformation in relationships. Therefore, it is essential to approach the challenges it brings with a positive mindset, as it can offer valuable lessons and experiences that can ultimately lead to personal growth and fulfillment.
Chiron in the 8th house:
Chiron in the 8th house indicates deep emotional wounds and trauma related to power, control, and intimacy. People with this placement may struggle with trust issues and vulnerability, as well as experiencing fear of abandonment and betrayal. It can possess a significant and transformative on planets aspects as well. However, the positioning of Chiron in the 8th house also offers the potential for powerful healing and transformation.

Therefore, it is advised for those with Chiron in the 8th house to seek support from trusted individuals, such as a therapist or spiritual advisor. These professionals can help individuals manage the intense feelings that may arise and assist them in their journey to healing and transformation.

By embracing a more open-minded and comprehensive approach to spirituality and education, individuals with this placement can discover profound healing and fulfillment in their pursuits.
Chiron in the 10th house:
The placement of Chiron in the 10th house significantly influences their professional trajectory and public image.

Through cultivating resilience and compassion, individuals with this placement can emerge as influential and inspiring figures in their communities and industries.
Chiron in the 11th house:
Chiron's in the 11th house pertains to experiences with friendships, social groups, and humanitarian causes. Those with this placement may struggle with a deep sense of woundedness regarding their social interactions, feeling like they don't quite fit in or belong with their peers. This can be partly due to past traumas or experiences of rejection in these areas. Despite these challenges, however, Chiron's influence can also bring about a profound sense of empathy and compassion for others in those with this placement.

This placement can bring up deeply buried wounds and traumas that may have remained hidden or repressed for an extended period. In addition, the 12th house is associated with the unconscious mind, spirituality, and the collective unconscious, so having Chiron here can indicate a profound need for healing on a soul level. Individuals with Chiron in the 12th house may experience difficulty with feelings of loneliness, isolation, and disconnection from the world around them. They may possess a solid intuitive or psychic ability but may need help understanding how to channel it healthily. As a result, this can lead to confusion or a sense of being overwhelmed by the emotions and energies around them. However, Chiron in the 12th house can also serve as a potent placement for transformation and spiritual growth. By confronting their deepest fears and wounds, individuals with this placement can better understand themselves and their place in the world. This may also lead to developing a deep sense of compassion and empathy for others, and they may feel driven to help those suffering in some way.
⚷ Chiron in the Signs ⚷
Chiron in Aries:
Chiron in Aries can bring up a lot of past wounds and traumas related to personal identity and self-expression. People with this placement may have experienced early childhood experiences where they could not fully express themselves or were criticized for being too assertive or independent. As a result, they may struggle with feelings of inadequacy or a fear of being rejected for speaking their truth. However, Chiron in Aries also offers healing and growth opportunities through learning to embrace and assert one's individuality healthily and constructively. This can involve setting boundaries, communicating assertively, and cultivating a strong sense of self-worth. Ultimately, Chiron in Aries can teach us that our unique identity and voice are valuable and worthy of expression and that we have the power to create our own path in life.
Chiron in Taurus:
The placement of Chiron in Taurus typically signifies a profound attachment to the earth and a strong inclination towards stability and security.

They may also possess a flair for working with their hands or creating physical beauty. The ultimate lesson of Chiron in Taurus is that authentic wealth originates from within, and we possess the ability to develop our own sense of security, regardless of what life may present to us.
Chiron in Gemini:
Chiron in Gemini is an exciting placement that can bring many intellectual curiosity and communication skills. People with this placement may have experienced early wounds related to communication, learning, or siblings that have shaped their worldview. However, they also have the potential to be great teachers and communicators, using their own experiences to help others learn and grow. It's important for those with Chiron in Gemini to work on healing any wounds related to communication and to embrace their natural curiosity and desire for knowledge. With a bit of self-awareness and effort, they can turn their wounds into strengths and positively impact the world around them.
Chiron in Cancer:
Individuals with Chiron in Cancer often have a complex emotional history, as this placement can signify difficult experiences related to family and home life. These experiences may include abandonment or rejection by a parent or caregiver, which can lead to a persistent sense of insecurity and a need for emotional stability.

Chiron in Libra:
When Chiron is in Libra, it brings up various issues regarding relationships and partnerships. One may find it challenging to maintain balance and harmony within their relationships or need help setting boundaries and standing up for themselves. As a result, it is crucial to develop healthy communication skills and learn to appreciate one's own needs and desires in relationships.

This placement often instills a profound sense of purpose and a deep connection to personal beliefs. However, those with this placement may encounter difficulty finding a sense of belonging or experience a lack of understanding from others regarding their spiritual journey. Therefore, it is imperative for these individuals to seek out a supportive community that values and comprehends their quest for spiritual growth. Additionally, finding a balance between their aspiration for growth and the requirement to stay grounded and pragmatic in their day-to-day life is crucial for their overall well-being. Ultimately, Chiron in Sagittarius holds immense potential for personal growth and transformation.
Chiron in Capricorn:
Chiron's placement in Capricorn demands us to confront the wounds of our past and seek healing. Capricorn's uncompromising nature adds to the challenge, making it an uphill battle for many. However, we can transmute our pain into power with Chiron's guidance. This placement helps us address lingering issues related to our sense of self-worth, authority, and responsibility. Chiron in Capricorn inspires us to take control of our healing process and grow as individuals. It requires patience, perseverance, and courage to face our fears head-on, but the outcome is worth it. With this transit, we emerge as stronger, wiser, and more capable versions of ourselves.
Chiron in Aquarius:
The sign of Aquarius is renowned for its focus on humankind and progress, while Chiron is known as the wounded healer. Together, they create an intriguing combination that can suggest a person who is deeply committed to supporting others but may struggle with their own emotional and psychological scars. Individuals with Chiron in Aquarius are likely to possess a distinctive outlook on the world, one that is drawn to unconventional and progressive modes of thinking. They may also feel a strong pull towards humanitarian causes, taking on a great sense of responsibility for the well-being of others. However, the placement of Chiron in Aquarius can also signify a sense of detachment or emotional distance. These individuals may find it challenging to forge deep and meaningful connections with others or feel like outsiders in their social groups.
Chiron in Pisces:
Chiron in Pisces can trigger the emergence of intense emotional wounds that have been buried deep within. Therefore, it is crucial to dedicate time to processing and healing these wounds through therapeutic means, creative outlets, or spiritual practices. Additionally, this placement can heighten our sensitivity to the suffering of others and ignite a desire to alleviate their pain. However, it is imperative to maintain a balance between this desire and self-care, as Pisces tends to blur the boundaries between ourselves and others. In essence, Chiron in Pisces offers a unique opportunity for profound healing and compassion towards ourselves and those around us.
⚷ Chiron Aspects ⚷
Sun aspect Chiron:
When the Sun aspects Chiron, it signifies an opportune moment for growth and healing. Chiron symbolizes our innermost wounds and the ways in which we have been hurt in the past. Conversely, the Sun represents our sense of self and ability to radiate positively in the world. When these two energies converge, it presents a powerful opportunity to heal past wounds and step into our full potential. This aspect may elicit old pain and feelings of inadequacy; however, it also provides an opening to relinquish these limiting beliefs and embrace our true potential. With the Sun's brilliant light shining on the wounded areas of our lives, we can begin to perceive them in a new light and discover the courage to move forward.
Moon aspect Chiron:
When the Moon is in aspect with Chiron, it has the potential to trigger old emotional wounds and pain that may have been buried deep within us. However, this aspect can also provide healing and release opportunities if we are willing to confront and address these past traumas. It is essential to take the time to prioritize our emotional well-being and engage in self-care during this period. Our intuition can guide us in identifying what support we need, whether seeking assistance from loved ones or a therapist. It's important to remember that healing is a process that takes time, and it is perfectly acceptable to take things gradually, one step at a time.
Ascendant aspect Chiron:
Individuals with Chiron aspecting the ascendent may have undergone some form of early childhood trauma or wound, significantly influencing their identity and personality. However, this placement also implies that they possess the potential to use their experience to aid others and bring healing to those around them. As they mature and develop, they may find themselves attracted to professions in healthcare, counseling, or other helping professions. Individuals with this placement must prioritize their emotional well-being and seek support when necessary, as they may be more susceptible to emotional triggers and stress. Chiron's ascendant aspect can be a potent tool for personal growth and transformation if the individual is willing to confront and work through their inner wounds.
Mercury aspect Chiron:
The relationship between Mercury and Chiron in astrology is compelling, as these two entities symbolize the mind and communication in unique ways. Mercury embodies the concept of rational thinking, swift wit, and effective communication. Conversely, Chiron represents the wounded healer, signifying our most profound emotional wounds and the following healing process. When Mercury aspects Chiron in a birth chart, it can suggest that the individual has an inherent gift for communicating their pain and struggles. They may possess the ability to articulate their emotions and employ language to facilitate the healing process for themselves and others. However, this aspect may also imply a proclivity towards overthinking and self-doubt. The person might struggle with negative self-talk, making it arduous to trust their thoughts and opinions.
Venus aspect Chiron:
When Chiron makes an aspect to Venus in a natal chart, it can indicate a significant emotional wound associated with love, relationships, self-esteem, and beauty. This aspect may manifest as a sense of unlovability or unworthiness of love, challenges in establishing healthy relationships, or heartache and disillusionment in love. Nevertheless, Chiron's curative energy can also facilitate personal growth and transformation in these areas, as the individual learns to love and accept themselves and attract healthier relationships. Individuals with this aspect must focus on self-love and address past traumas linked to love and relationships.
Mars aspect Chiron:
Mars aspecting Chiron can evoke intense emotions and memories of past traumas. This alignment has the potential to be quite challenging, as it may stir up feelings of anger, frustration, and even hostility. However, it's crucial to recognize that this alignment can also present an opportunity for personal growth and healing. By confronting and gradually working through your inner pain, you can emerge stronger and more resilient. Astrology provides valuable insights into these intricate dynamics, and an experienced astrologer can offer guidance and support throughout this journey of self-discovery.
Jupiter aspect Chiron:
Jupiter aspecting Chiron in astrology can bring about a lot of healing and growth opportunities. Chiron represents our deepest wounds, and Jupiter represents expansion and growth. When these two come together in a harmonious aspect, such as a trine or sextile, we may find that our wounds are being healed through the process of personal growth and expansion. However, when these two come together in a challenging aspect, such as a square or opposition, we may find that our wounds are being exacerbated, and we may need to work harder to find the healing we need. Overall, Jupiter aspecting Chiron can be a powerful catalyst for healing and growth in our lives.
Saturn aspect Chiron:
When Saturn aspects Chiron, you may find yourself confronting deep-seated wounds and insecurities, specifically concerning your career and authority. These feelings may manifest as a sense of inadequacy or doubt in your ability to handle the responsibilities that come with leadership positions. But, even though this aspect can be challenging, it also presents an opportunity for growth and healing if you're willing to face your fears and work through them. To do so, it's important to take a practical and disciplined approach to your goals while also being kind and understanding to yourself throughout the process. Finally, remember that everyone's journey and struggles are unique and that asking for help and support is perfectly acceptable when needed.
Uranus aspect Chiron:
When Uranus aspects Chiron, there is a potential for breakthroughs in healing and growth. Uranus represents change, innovation, and awakening, while Chiron represents our deepest wounds and the potential for transformation through them. When these two energies come together, we may experience sudden insights, unexpected solutions, or new perspectives that help us move past limiting beliefs or patterns. However, it's essential to approach this energy with openness and receptivity, as Uranus can also bring disruption and upheaval if we resist its call for change. By working with the energy of Uranus and Chiron consciously and intentionally, we can tap into their transformative power and ultimately emerge stronger and more whole.
Neptune aspect Chiron:
Aspects between Neptune and Chiron can signal spiritual revival and advancement. This may stir up past traumas and emotional anguish, but it also offers a chance for profound insight and empathy. It is crucial to remain anchored and seek guidance from reliable sources, such as trusted confidants or well-versed professionals. Embracing your instincts and being receptive to unique perspectives has the potential to usher in remarkable healing and metamorphosis.
Pluto aspect Chiron:
When Pluto aspects Chiron, it's possible for old wounds and traumas to surface, requiring attention for healing and transformation. As outdated patterns and beliefs are challenged and released, this can trigger deep emotional and psychological growth. However, it's important to be aware that power struggles and intense emotions may arise as Pluto's intensity clashes with Chiron's sensitivity. Staying grounded and centered is crucial during this period, and seeking support from trusted friends, family, or therapists is necessary. Ultimately, this aspect can lead to profound self-healing and transformation as past wounds are confronted and released, paving the way for enhanced self-awareness and personal growth.
North Node aspect Chiron:
This particular aspect can prove to be quite daunting, as it unearths past traumas and vulnerabilities that we may have long thought were buried. However, it also presents an opportunity for growth and healing as it compels us to confront these issues and work through them in order to move forward. Through my personal experience, engaging in meditation and journaling has been instrumental in this process, as they provide a safe and supportive environment for me to reflect on my emotions and experiences. The North Node aspects to Chiron can be a powerful catalyst for personal transformation if we are willing to put in the work and face our fears head-on.
South Node aspect Chiron:
When the South Node is in aspect with Chiron, it implies that you may rely excessively on past experiences and patterns, especially those related to emotional wounds and traumas. This inclination towards familiar patterns may provide comfort, even if they are not beneficial or productive. However, this can hinder your progress and prevent healing from past hurts. Therefore, acknowledging and confronting these wounds to release them and move towards a healthier future is crucial. Additionally, this aspect may indicate a need to let go of old habits and beliefs that no longer serve you. By embracing new experiences and perspectives, you can cultivate a more fulfilling and balanced life.
Mean Lilith aspect Chiron:
Aspects of Lilith and Chiron significantly impact an individual's emotional wounds and healing process. Lilith represents our inherent instincts and uncontrollable desires, while Chiron symbolizes our deepest traumas and the path to recovery and personal development. This convergence of energies can lead to intense emotional struggles and a profound need for healing. Therefore, it is crucial to acknowledge and validate these wounds while striving to heal and attain a sense of completeness. Astrology serves as a valuable tool in this journey, offering insights and direction to navigate the intricate dynamics of Lilith and Chiron.
Unaspected or Less than two aspects Chiron:
An unaspected Chiron, or one in less than two, refers to a scenario where Chiron does not form any significant connections with other planets or points in a person's natal chart. This may suggest an area of life where the individual may feel a sense of detachment or isolation, as if they are working through their issues alone. On the other hand, it also indicates a need for self-reliance and self-healing, as those with an unanspected Chiron placement may have a unique perspective on healing and be able to offer guidance to others who are struggling with similar challenges. However, it's important to remember that each astrology placement is just one piece of the puzzle, and the interpretation of Chiron should be made in the context of the whole chart. For example, look into the house ruler of the sign of your Chiron as well as the house itself for more insight. The house rulers planet placement can shed light into underlayered or overshadowed areas that effect Chiron. (Chiron in 12th house Capricorn with Saturn in the 3rd suggests isolation from the immediate environment can be detrimental to the person's mental health.)

Hello, world!
It's so sad Hazbin antis have such problems with it and vivzie, or their stories which makes them dislike the show. Anyways I can't make a constructive criticism right now so have this instead:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Ps: this is kinda serious kinda not, and I also have not watched hazbin and I'm not planning to change that ever, anyway, let's begin!
So Base Pac-man at the end of his show has many strengths, combined with power pellets which make him quite powerful, which include:
*Smacking and throwing small buildings with his tongue
*Reacting to multiple lasers larger than himslef in the air
*Making a kirby-esque inhale attack to suck multiple ghosts (opponents) at once
*Is a martial arts expert in a mystic fighting style called Pac-fu, capable of beating its prior greatest user now a ghost
*With same training his speed is at base enough to make afterimages
*Also speed enough to catch up with ghosts capable of travelling to space in minutes
*His pimple ooze can seal holes through space and time (don't ask watch the show)
*innate cloning via Pac-fu
*Has been referenced to terrify cosmic reality-warpers known as "the overlords"
*Resistance to heat and the vaccum of space
*Strong enough to fistfight netherworld monsters via scaling to spiral (his friend)
*His mouth is powerful enough to eat a fully stone statue AT LEAST, and has eaten a sandwich the size of a town as a SNACK
*Most importantly: Can eat ghosts, or in this case, SOULS. You see where I'm getting at?
WITH POWER BERRIES:
*First of all his berries stack so he can use multiple powers SIMULTANOUSLY
*Almost all regular berries give him true flight
*Pyrokinesis via fire berry, shown to be able to even disintegrate ghosts and beat netherworld dragons AND rival an alien spaceship
*Cryokinesis via ice berry, capable of freezing an entire tornado made of ghosts at ONCE, immobilizing them on spot, something no hazbin character has shown resistance to (to my knowledge)
*Titanium berry gives him a Magnetized tongue and obvious resistant metallic body
*Invisibility via chameleon berry
*Magic abilities and countering via wizard berry (also includes mild reality warping)
*Great size and strength increases via growth berries, being able to beat war vehicles as a BABY (most known transformation is Pac-zilla)
*Franken berry which gives him electrokinesis
*Genius intellect via nerd berry (uhm actually🤓)
*Planetoid-size transformation with atmosphere and gravitational pull
*Speed increase via speed berries
*kung-fu berries for improved combat
*Tornado berry capable of creating great tornadoes
*Remember all those powers can STACK and he can change them at will or use them simultaneously?
Miscellaneous:
*Ghosts have been able to make direct contact with glowing-hot asteroids with no damage
*Pac-man survived being sent to the past through a wormhole at immeasurable speed without protection
*His base intelligence is enough to pilot a super-advanced lightyear spanning space shuttle
*He literally burped so hard once he MOVED a black hole multiple light years away
*There are many, oh so many more power berries I forgot about
If you enjoyed this or have counter arguments please let me know! I love you all!

AT THE EDGE OF YOUR STARS: CHAPTER 3 ~ DOWNTIME!
Tumblr media
Yay fam I did it! We're back! The damaged Morning Star faces a long crawl to port. Plenty of time for the crew and their newest member to get acquainted...
For Lux, Jinx, and the crew of the Morning Star, a journey of discovery lies ahead - and within.
Jinx flicked up her grinning painted welding mask; Malphite grunted as she jostled him. “What?” she said, rolling her eyes, “C’mon, we didn’t like, die or anythin’. That’s a win, right?” The Morning Star drifted through the star-speckled abyss, periodically venting excess heat from the enormous gash along the starboard flank. They’d dropped out of slingspace somewhere far from Exis VI, with no sign of pursuit and the enemy definitely – probably –too scrambled to follow, and as far as Jinx was concerned, that was a win, right? Somewhere was better than nowhere, right? “Yeah,” Yasuo gave a chesty little ‘heh’, that was about as close to a long-suffering sigh as you ever got from someone as cool as him, “Bu-u-ut, in addition to your boyfriend’s parting gift, we took a hell of a lot of photann fire on the way out. And our trusty pilot launching us into slingspace from inside a planetoid’s gravity nearly shook her apart…” Jinx beamed a shameless grin at him. “…so, while I’m glad we’re all still in one piece,” Yasuo glanced over Jinx and Malphite, both battered and bloodied, “…mostly…the ship’s not gonna stay spaceworthy if we don’t dock for repairs. I don’t particularly feel like dying horribly as she comes apart around us, so… Captain’s call. Sona – where are we?”

Could a quirk based on Gravattack from Ben 10 work?
Obviously, Gravattack's skillset is pretty broad, so you'd have to narrow it down. For this, I took more inspiration from the planetoid form and it's Ultimate Evolution, where he makes several small moons to help utilize his power.
I see it working as a Transformation type Quirk allows the user to make a series of rounded, rocky plates around their body, making them resemble a living planet. These plates have a unique gravitational affect, allowing the user to influence it relative to their body. The user can increase, decrease, or alter the pull of the gravity around their body, working to move objects or people close to them, such as. The user can try to split off parts of their form into small moons that float around them, working as crude extensions of their abilities. This gives the user a versatile ability, their unique control over gravity making them a powerful force. They can make themselves levitate through the air, augment their attacks with greater gravity, redirect people's with their gravitational pull, help move objects, or simply work to protect their body from harm. Though the usage of the Quirk is affected by the user's center mass core, which can be overused can cause stress to the rocks and body. The rocks and the user's body still can be damaged, hampering the user's ability to influence gravity on them and leaving them exposed. The user will need some practice and understand of how their gravity affects things. A possible name for the Quirk could be "Global" or "Nebular".

Phazon Echoes - Zeydaan
Story by Metroid711 - Seeing their transformation abilities at work in Smash. Samus recommends Zeydaan/Isabella for a highly classified mission. Recreating the conditions to make dark samus in order to combat a NEW phazon threat. It's good they're used to this kind of thing.
Space … an ever expansive, never ending darkened void that was filled with billions upon billions of stars. And mixed in with these stars, several light years away from each other are planets. The Milky Way galaxy is one of these, neighbor to the Tetra Galaxy. These two astronomical wonders were inhabited by a multitude of species and creatures across dozens of planets and civilizations, and most of them would fall under the caring watchful eye of the Galactic Federation. A special government who’s main duty was to keep the peace between the races that inhabited the many worlds, and to prevent the strength of those who may pose a threat to that peace. For about half a decade, the Galactic Federation had to deal with the threat that almost tore the very galaxy apart, Phazon. This extraterrestrial radiation would be used and abused by a number of villainous parties that almost led to the extinction of all life in the galaxy, until their top bounty hunter put a stop to it and its vassal. However, a new threat has begun to reveal itself, returning in the form of Phazon once more. Phazon’s origin had come from the planet it was named after, Phaaze. The planet had been destroyed, but since that occurred, almost 3 years later, Federation members have detected another planet naturally producing the radiation. The scientists have theorized it may be some sort of planetoid like Pluto, albeit still just as toxic as the original planet. They have named it Phaaze Minor, but it has presented an issue that cannot be fixed the same way it was before. Since her last mission, Samus Aran has become far more susceptible to radiation on account of her Metroid DNA mutating to a full body transformation. While she can switch between the two, this factor has made it impossible for her to attempt the destruction of Phaaze Minor. Because of this, Federation leaders have enlisted the help of an independent research group known as the Hawkmoths. One of their members has the unique ability to adapt their form to specific situations, including physical attributes. They have been transported to the Federation research facility closest to Phaaze Minor to begin Phazon mutation adaptation testing, with the overall project being titled Operation Aquamarine. All of this information was what Zeydaan would be reading over. Ever since they were shipped out for this operation, they had gotten into the habit of looking over the federation researcher’s notes. It was helpful as, well, despite being told what would be happening, they didn’t wish to have any details left out. The ship they were currently resting in was piloted by a few select Federation soldiers that were similarly acting as the Fae-Wolf’s body guards. A knock on their room’s door and after Zey opened it, one of the suited men would be standing there. “We will be docking at the research station in 10 minutes, please be prepared to board.” As serious as the guard’s tone was, Zey knew they had the best intentions. Intergalactic governments like this tended to get a bad rep simply for stereotypes. After a bit of shaking and some clicks, the guards would open door for the fae-wolf as they stepped out with them. The station was impressive to say the least. There were large ship docks for medical vessels, military gunships for protection, even a couple small scouter ships probably used to examine the planet a good couple light years away. Zey would walk alongside the bodyguard group of guards as they would lead them through the shipping area and through a series of hallways and doors with scientists, doctors, and other workers walking past. Several would give them glances; some stared the whole way. Heck Zey remembered one of them even smiling and applauding for them, which felt … weird. Zey was led to an enclosed room, although it was by no means decrepit. It had a comfy bed, a computer table, some shelves with reading, its own bathroom, even a mini fridge. They weren’t surprised by this however, as it was one of the requirements their Hawk Moth friends put forward. Zey wasn’t to be treated as a test animal or lab rat like most experiments, they were to be given good and comfy treatment and kept healthy throughout the process. Only during the metamorphosis itself was Zey meant to be kept in quarantine, but they understood that part. “You will remain in here until the head scientist comes to pick you up for test screening, please refrain from wandering around the station. We will not stop you, but I doubt the good doctor would wish to play hide and seek with this galaxy’s only hope.” The soldier had a bit of a snarky attitude which caused a twinge of annoyance to spark through Zey, but they would roll their eyes and nod in response. The guard would nod back before the door closed behind them. Zey would have relaxed in that room for a couple hours. They were tempted to leave despite warnings but honestly it was probably best to get this done and over with, and that meant no issues caused for the others. It was going to be a long enough process after all, as they would sit on the bed and stared out the reinforced glass window. It was the swirling, gorgeous vast expanse of space Zey would be met with, something they honestly could never get used to with how pretty it was. However, besides this, far off in the distance was the cause of this whole fiasco. From here it was no bigger than a dot, but the glowing blue blot on the spatial sky would pierce it like some kind of stain. Zey knew they were outside its range of radiative influence but even then, they could feel just how wrong something like that should exist. While they were glad to be of service, getting mixed up in a material with such a legacy of destruction and corrosion behind it made them nervous. It wouldn’t be much long after this when there was a knock at the door, as it would open to reveal a stereotype that seemed to reign true still. Of course the head scientist was the sketchiest looking person they had ever seen. Stumpy and shorter, bald with small round glasses and tiny rat like eyes sitting behind them. He had a big somewhat concerning grin with a couple missing teeth. “I’m glad you could get here so quickly, this is … truly a special situation~” despite the fact he was talking about a planet comprised of one of the most volatile substances in the galaxy, that didn’t sound like the best tone of voice to take. He would gesture them to follow, and so they would, without really questioning much. The less they asked questions and thought about this, the more annoying it’d end up being. This guy probably wanted to use Phazon for his own means in some way, although while Zey didn’t know what, it didn’t matter to them. He would babble on about the importance of all this and his research and how this would be for the good of the whole galaxy. Zey would be led into the main lab, assumedly where they would be a majority of the time once this all started. “The process is quite simple! ~ Every day for five hours, on the hour, you will be exposed the Phazon samples we extracted from the newly discovered planetoid. Your special … abilities … will cause your body to adapt and mutate with the substance, far faster and differently than most would. I’m only slightly fluent in how your powers work, so I will trust you will be able to handle any attempts of the radiation trying to corrupt you mentally. Once we have deemed you fully adapted to the substance, we will inject you with the DNA of the Bounty Hunter Samus Aran. We had a few of her samples on file before her … recently completed mission. Once your metamorphosis is completed, we will send you to the planet to place the means of destroying it. Do you understand all this?” Zey didn’t even want to know how this all worked, but they would nod as the scientist would cackle a little and clap his hands. “Splendid! ~ I truly am looking forward to how this will go ~” Zey would step into a changing room to slip into something similar to the zero suit Samus wore. It was tight, but it was meant to be that way so it would stretch and adapt to the mutations same as Zey’s body would. They knew they’d have no trouble with the mutations, this isn’t something they haven’t dealt with entirely before, but their main concern was the Phazon’s infamously known effects it has on people’s minds. Samus’ bounty hunter party got driven completely insane to the point of trying to murder her, and Zey didn’t want to end up becoming the enemy because of all this. “You may step into the chamber when ready to begin the first dosages ~” Zey would step out, the purple colored zero suit shifting with their movements as they stepped inside the chamber. It was fairly well built, if anything. Having to deal with Phazon for a good decade or so allowed security measures to be made to deal with the radiation. The walls were comprised of a special alloy embedded glass with the corners and roof made entirely of the same allow. This material supposedly was taken from the remains of Samus’ old suits back when she was investigating the Phazon on Aether and Tallon IV. Once Zey gave the okay, the scientists would be messing around on some of the computers, and with the press of a button a square hole in the floor would open up. It would raise a platform in which sitting upon it would be a large 2 foot tall cannister of the pulsating, bright blue substance. Phazon, pure corrosive Phazon that has nearly caused the destruction of the galaxy three times over and yet it still somehow continues to exist. It was a plague; it should not exist, and it shouldn’t continue to exist. And knowing this was why Zey took the job in the first place, because if they didn’t it would cause more problems. Either in the hands of the Space Pirates, or probable scumbags like the scientist. “Beginning test 1 of the Phazon dosage … now!” and the front of the cannister would slide open, and instantly Zey had to take a step back as the waves of radiative energy blasted throughout their very being. It was like the waves of the ocean knocking them back over and over in a rhythm of cacophony. It felt wrong, but it was for the better of the future as they would grit their teeth and grunt. Already they began to feel their abilities going into effect, albeit small to start. The major mutations wouldn’t come until much later, with this time they felt their fingers began to crack and extend, shifting as their claws got slightly longer. They would gasp and arch their back as it would crack and creak, making them hunch only slightly as the muscles would expand slightly. That was something they were aware of Phazon being capable of, boosting and mutating the physical capabilities of creatures at the cost of their minds. This process of being pounded with the radiation would go on for what felt like forever, but it was only in fact about 30 or so minutes. Once it was done, Zey collapsed against the glass wall, panting and breathing heavily as the cannister would shut. They had 30 minutes to relax before the next dosage, but doing this five times a day was going to get exhausting. And they hadn’t even begun to feel the mental effects yet, as the scientist would turn the intercom on inside the chamber. “When today’s tests are done, you will be given a physical examination to see what sort of mutations your form has gone through for future research purposes.” That didn’t bode well, but they were too tired to care as they were trying to catch their breath. Zey would feel the second test ripple throughout their body, and by the end of the 5 tests they really began to feel the effects. Their muscles had expanded slightly, with their fur a little stretched across their frame. It was the basic physical implements Phazon was known for as they felt their strength being far better than it was. Although there were sensations that were more alien, with their claws and fingers having extended a bit longer, and their back felt somewhat hunched with more of the muscle bunching up there. Despite all this, Zey still looked relatively normal, but this only meant they hadn’t fully adapted to the body. The cannister would lower into the ground, and after a few minutes they were let out and taken to their room. A benefit of Phazon at least: unless it was directly pure, it couldn’t influence anybody. It wasn’t like normal radiation and being around Zey was toxic. Instead, what made Phazon so dangerous was how psychotic it would make those who’s minds it destroyed. Speaking of which, as Zey lay in the bed with a little less comfort from before, they felt a slight headache induced twinge of pain. And for but a moment there was a flash … of something in their vision. Nothing they could remember; it was there and gone faster than they could fully recognize it. But they realized it was a hallucination, something in the corner of their room, before it was gone instantly. This wouldn’t be the last they’d probably see of these, and they know they’d get much worse. The many who had succumbed to this alien radiation usually had hallucinogenic symptoms, hence why a majority of them tended to go insane simply from being unable to understand what was real. The next day would come quickly, especially since Zey could barely sleep. They were having the strangest dreams … they weren’t mutated yet, but they were walking around the testing facility. Everything was dark and murky, and space outside had been replaced by what felt like a dark desolate black and blue void. Glowing blue tendrils had snaked up the walls and ceiling and everything looked deformed and decayed; like nobody had been there. They would call out to get no response, wandering the empty abandoned facility. But it didn’t feel like wandering, it was like with every step in their dream they were approaching something important further and further inside the facility. However before they could go deeper to see what it was, they would wake up. Their muscles throbbing a little from their body not being entirely used to it all, as they would sit up. There would be a knock at their door and the guards opened it to allow Zey to proceed back to the testing chamber. Today was particularly stressful because the head scientist and his team was upping the dosage. That was the plan, taking in more each day, allowing Zey’s absorption abilities to adapt to more of it. Eventually the plan was to physically assimilate piece of the substance into them. The zero suit that was covering their slightly enlarged form would begin to stretch further as the larger cannister would be opened, releasing twice the amount of radiation into the fae-wolf. The effects were a little more grotesque this time, with their slightly elongated fingers starting to stretch and crack further. They had been shifting from a light and dark grey set of paws into enormous wicked gangly claws that only an alpha beast would use. The radiation was doing its job and increasing Zey’s physical capabilities, including evolving the latent animal traits they had. Each finger would crack sharply, the stretching fingernails that had been hardening and blackening would start to glow a bluish color on the ends of the sharpened tips. They couldn’t help but wince a tad, especially as the skin and fur over their arms began to slough, with the arms elongating. Their small hunch would become more prominent as their head lurched forward, back cracking as the fur was starting to fall off slightly in clumps to reveal the joints of their spine had hardened and protruded out their enlarged swelling back into natural armor-like spines. They had a feeling their fur would start to go, as this was much like normal radiation in a way. The enormous gangly claws had already been shed of all fur, with their creaking and elongating arms losing the grey fluffy substance in slight clumps. They winced a tad from the deformation of their regular body structure, but in the end it was worth it. And at the very least its not like their final form would be keeping them. Their tail was slumping a bit, with their spine restructuring they felt the nerves becoming numb in that extra limb. It didn’t fall off or anything, but Zey imagined it wouldn’t last the next day. Especially as their legs would tremble a tad. With how their body was restructuring it almost felt like they were losing their humanoid stance and taking a more digitigrade one. Eventually the day would be over, and the pounding in their head had increased. And as they were hobbling back to their room, they could’ve sworn they saw that same figure watching them from down the hall … around the corner. They were still too far away to make out, but Zey figured the hallucinations would get more vivid as this went on. More of a reason to keep getting sleep and not falling into the corruption like so many had before. The dream that night was more of the same. They woke up in the same place of the facility, back to normal, everything swallowed up by corruption. However, this time Zey practically heard a voice whispering, although they couldn’t make out any words. They were drawn deeper into the mental space catacombs, getting a little deeper this time. The veiny blue vines would have glowing pustules of Phazon across them, almost like it got worse the deeper they went. However like before, they would reach a certain point and then wake up. Zey could’ve sworn the direction they were going in the dream was to the main testing labs. Speaking of which, day three back in the large radiation proof chamber and this was the time for the scientists to expose Zey to pure uncontained Phazon. The mix of goo and crystallized blue plasma would be raised up on the pedestal, with it pulsating and glowing as Zey had to take a step back from the shocking sensations of it. This time it was worse, they felt their entire skeletal structure reshaping, falling forward as their back piled up with muscle. Fur falling away to reveal blackened smooth almost hard skin underneath, with their tail shuddering and detaching. It flopped against the metallic floor and disintegrated, as Zey gasped out with their legs creaking and shifting. Their knees bent as their paws would sharpen and stretch into similarly blue tipped black gangly claws. Their stance was more befitting of an animal in a way, with their chest having expanded further out. Most of their fur on their torso had shed, with only small patches remaining attached to the pitch-black skin. Although Zey felt an urge, just a small one. But this urge was enough to make them lurch forward and dig their claws into the pure Phazon, being a bit ahead of schedule as they felt the need to absorb more of it. It would suck up into them as the glowing blue substance would begin to flow through their veins. That of which would begin to glow a similar blue as they started to thicken and throb, moving up their enormous longer blackened arms. Thick glowing blue veins that pulsated across their body as their neck strained, Zey clenching their eyes shut as they felt their voice gargle into a growl. The whispers were growing louder, pushing them to further this, but they shook their head. They asked for this, they weren’t going to let it take over, although a bit of mutation could be fun at least. Their head looked so off, sitting on their hunched forward blackened neck, with their head having barely any changes, more than likely that would be the focus of tomorrow. Their body size was five times what it was before, with their veins bulging and blue. Their furless skin like a thick blackened hide, with sharpened wicked curved blue tipped claws and an enormous muscular spiked hunch of a back. They would lumber out, winking at the scientist who looked almost disappointed. Zey could only gather he was wondering why the corruption hadn’t broke their mind yet. Zey had been through a lot of situations like this, so they knew how to fight these sort of attacks. They were taken to a different room this time, with it being much larger than their former. Their bed was replaced with a large hanging hammock fit for their grotesque mutated body. Although they didn’t mind it, going to lay down into it with a creak. The hallucinations had increased as well, with a black and blue figure standing in the corner and getting closer. Zey recognized it as the end goal of this whole experiment, a hazy phantom of the Phazon fueled doppelganger of Samus Aran. The cause of all the trouble in the past, and it seems she was trying to use Zey as her own new host. However as she held her hand out, all Zey would do was smirk and turn over not giving her the time of day. Zey had another of the same dream they had been having, however they would finally make it to the decrepit door of the labs. It would open to reveal the testing chamber, a large glowing blue pod undulating inside like a cocoon. It would crack open as the wolf stepped in, and crawling out would be none other than Dark Samus herself. She would let out a soft, echoing hiss and reached out to them. “Join me … and we can rule the galaxy far better than they ever could.” Her voice was like poison, like every word could melt through solid stone. But Zey would approach her, staring at her outstretched hand, and the fae-wolf simply shook their head. “Sorry, but you had that chance, and you lost it already. And this time, I’m gonna make sure you stay gone” They placed their hand on her visored face, and with a small gasp and a flash of blue light, everything around Zey in the dream dissipated into a bluish dust. This was Dark Samus’ last remains. Despite the displays and showmanship, she was just a ghost. Zey woke up the next morning, feeling more at home with their enormous monstrous mutated form. And they were ready to complete the first phase of all this, before preparing to borrow the form of the one who had been trying to puppet this for their own gain. Zey would squeeze inside the chamber, as the last globules of Phazon rose up. The scientists watched in curiosity as Zey lifted them up … and bit down into them. They would munch and slurp them down like large gummy candies, with them not even really having much of a taste if not more of a texture. As they swallowed they felt their face cracking and shifting, their skull elongating as their black and red streaked hair began to fall off in clumps. Their front teeth sharpened into long sabretooth like tusks, with the rest of their wolf canines getting more deadlier. The only way to describe what was happening was that it felt like their skull was pushing out of their old head. The furry skin parted like paper to reveal a skeletal black material underneath. It was like their hide of the rest of the body, but like they had a pitch black animal skull for its shape. No hair, with their eyes almost blinking away into blue goo to reveal empty black crevices filled with glowing blue dots. But what made the changes more prominent would be how the Phazon moved across the rest of their enormous body. Different parts of them would bulge and splurge out into enormous tumors. This was pretty common for Phazon mutations, with a majority of them having radioactive growths like this. Usually it was a sign that their forms had over mutated, but in this case it was good. Zey felt an extra large one push out one of their skeletal eyeholes and the top of their head, with it obscuring half their vision. Honestly given the fact they felt entirely fine, this was pretty dang cool getting all grotesque and monstery. But that was it, all the Phazon left. Their giant overly mutated form had been completed, ripe for the final phase to prepare them in their mission for Phaaze Minor. Before they left the testing chamber they were given a single injection to their larger spine. According to the scientists, it was some of Samus Aran’s DNA from before her last mission. Once this was done, Zey returned to their room, although escorted by hazmat wearing guards, who they actually struck up nice conversation with. It was a little hard to talk with such a gnarly jaw, especially not having lips or a tongue. But Zey managed, and as they stepped in the room, they would get a look at themselves in the full body mirror on the wall. They looked scary as hell, which was exactly the intentions. This night they were not supposed to sleep, to allow the metamorphosis to happen and for their reactions to better be recorded by the camera in the top corner of the room. It only took a couple hours, with them feeling sharp pinches across their skeletal structure again. While it had expanded all this time, it was once again compressing and shrinking down. Their black mutated skin was beginning to lighten and even grow more … transparent. The lighter in color it got, the more they could actually see the effects of the transformation happening in real time. Their animalistic shapes were becoming more human-like, if not glowing and shaped like nerves. They felt one of their enormous claws start to compress and round out, fingers becoming useless as they would fuse into some sort of living carapace. An indent was forming in the middle of the stump like growth as their other clawed hand was compressing into smaller sharpened fingers. What was the weirdest part was their head, as the glossy see through blue skin was swallowing up their skull, as if performing the reverse of the previous mutations. Their maw would shrink back and close up to form no mouth at all, with the blackened texture becoming a bright blue, and their eyeholes becoming a set of pure piercing yellow eyes. Their face looked ghastly, like an abnormal artistic drawing of an alien or a human. They recognized this as Dark Samus incomplete form, with it being an in between state of her original Metroid Prime look and how she was in the end. Although this wasn’t too last long, thank goodness. Zey didn’t know how they felt having all their internal organic parts on display. As their shoulders bulged and enlarged, filling with Phazon, the thin see through skin layer started to harden and solidify. Zey felt their vision growing brighter, a light blue tint taking it over as their alien-like head would begin to fuse with the thin outer layer of skin. If all the mutations were weird, nothing compared to feeling their facial features flatten and extend into a visor in their places. Their claw like feet would smooth over into solid, yet almost breathable boots. Their fingerless arm had taken the form of the familiar weaponry Samus was known for, and their head was a fully visored black and blue helmet. Every part of them felt alive, like they were breathing and feeling out of every organic piece of armor they called their form. They felt the Phazon flowing through them, powering them, allowing Zey to float up, light as air. All this power felt amazing, and it was genuinely a spectacle to experience such a bizarre yet original metamorphosis. It wouldn’t be permanent, but they could at least enjoy it as long as they could. After getting a feel for their new body, they would float out of the room, only to see surprisingly that the head scientist was being dragged down the hall kicking and screaming by some of the federation soldiers. “YOU DON’T UNDERSTAND, THIS IS FOR THE GOOD OF THE GALAXY! YOU ARE DESTROYING EVOLUTION!!” He would scream out, seems they … or well Zey supposed she was female now given the circumstances, had their suspicions proven right. Zey would float up to a couple of soldiers who would salute her, as they stepped aside to reveal Samus herself walking up to the newly created darkened twin. She would look Zey up and down and let out a small chuckle, “and here I thought I’d had seen the last of this look. ~” One of the soldiers would let out a soft gasp, almost in shock that the silent and stoic bounty hunter even could speak. She would put her armored hand on Zey’s larger shoulder, going to pat it with a small nod of admiration. “At least its in the hands of someone who will use it for the right reasons.” Zey would nod back, a little flushed at that compliment, watching her walk past as the new Phazon conglomerate floated up to the window to stare at the corrupt planet off in the distance. Samus would have stared down at her hand as she was out of sight of Zey, wanting to make sure of something. She mentally noted the fact no Phazon had been leftover on her hand, letting out a soft chuckle. She was confident this would go well now, and that such power was controlled by someone worthy of it. One of the guards would stop behind her, bowing slightly before he spoke: “A ship is ready for you ma’am, are you prepared for the mission?” Zey turned around, giving him an emotionless look due to the visor face, and she felt a swelling of excitement in her chest. Yes, she was ready for anything.

Chiron in Astrology
     How are YOU feeling after the Aries Solar Eclipse? As mentioned in my astrology of the week post, the solar eclipse was a particularly potent one because it conjoined Chiron. What I realized in hindsight was that not many astrologers (including myself) talk about Chiron. Sure, we mention the asteroid in passing—and only when it’s making a major move (like the Chiron Cazimi). But Chiron, as I’ve discovered lately, is quite a BIG deal in astrology. 
     Often referred to as the "Wounded Healer", Chiron plays a significant role in the birth chart and represents a profound area of healing and growth. Its influence is felt most acutely in the house and sign it occupies, as well as any aspects it forms with other planets. While Chiron's presence may initially evoke discomfort or pain, it ultimately serves as a catalyst for profound self-awareness and transformation. Here's what you need to know about Chiron in astrology and its implications in the birth chart:
The Myths & Symbolism of Chiron
     In astrology, asteroids are celestial bodies that orbit the Sun, much like planets. However, they are much smaller in size compared to planets and are often referred to as minor planets or planetoids. While the planets in astrology represent various aspects of human experience and personality traits, asteroids add depth and nuance to astrological interpretations by focusing on specific themes or archetypes. Asteroids are named after characters from mythology, historical figures, or other significant names in various fields. Each asteroid is associated with specific qualities, energies, or themes based on its name and mythology.
      Asteroids add layers of complexity to astrological interpretations, offering insights into specific areas of life or personality traits that may not be as prominently highlighted by the major planets. However, they’re similar to the personal planets in one key aspect: the insights we can gain from asteroids revolve around the mythological figures after which they are named. 
     In Greek mythology, Chiron was a centaur known for his wisdom, healing abilities, and mentorship of heroes. Despite his exceptional abilities, Chiron bore a deep emotional wound inflicted by a poisoned arrow, which he could never fully heal. This duality of healer and wounded being encapsulates the essence of Chiron's symbolism—a profound journey of self-discovery and healing through embracing our vulnerabilities.
Chiron in the Birth Chart
     Chiron's placement in the birth chart reveals the specific areas of life where you may encounter challenges, struggles, or unresolved issues. Chiron’s position by sign, house, and aspects to other planets provides insights into the nature of our wounds and the potential for healing and growth. So, Chiron in Aries–or, Chiron square Mars—may indicate wounds related to identity, self-expression, or assertiveness, whereas Chiron in Libra, Chiron aspects to Venus, or Chiron in the 7th House, point to challenges in relationships, self-worth, and/or partnerships.
Learn MORE about Chiron in Astrology and Your Birth Chart on my Substack:
Chiron Cazimi Meaning in Astrology
In astrology, a planet is considered to be "cazimi" when it is located very close to the Sun, within a specific degree range. When Chiron is cazimi, it means that it is at its exact degree of conjunction with the Sun, within a few arc minutes. This positioning is significant because it amplifies the influence of Chiron and can intensify its effects on an individual's life.
A Chiron cazimi is thought to symbolize a moment of heightened awareness, insight, and clarity regarding the themes represented by Chiron in the birth chart. It is a time when you may experience a more profound connection with your inner wounds, insecurities, and vulnerabilities, as well as your potential for healing and growth.
During a Chiron cazimi, there may be opportunities for deep introspection, self-reflection, and emotional healing. It can be a potent time for engaging in therapeutic practices, seeking guidance from mentors or healers, or embarking on a journey of self-discovery and transformation.
Because Chiron transits encourages you to embark on a journey of self-discovery and healing. They prompt you to confront your pain, acknowledge your vulnerabilities, and seek healing through self-awareness, acceptance, and self-love.

Out of nowhere, Grammer turns up, apparently on the trail of the Trigant, then crash-lands on the Circuit Knights’ transformed planetoid.
Coincidental that he appears, because he was involved in one of the Inspector’s most-recent adventures, or no?

Hopefully someone hasn't already told you this - Jetfire actually made a surprise cameo in the first issue of Void Rivals, the other ongoing series in Energon Universe. The protagonists were crashed on a planetoid, repaired a shuttle they found, and it transformed into Jetfire, who immediately flew off to check on Cybertron; it was unclear how long he'd been there.
I appreciate you taking the time to let me know! I read Void Rivals #1 on release day, though, so I'm aware. 😂
Jetfire's uncertain amount of time on the planetoid does nothing to clarify the the full length of the timeline, however. All we've got is Starscream telling us that the Earth crews saw one hundred years of war before crashing and Jetfire saying he hadn't seen Starscream in centuries. We've no clue in canon how long the rest have been fighting, though we can make educated guesses.
I'm mostly interested in the idea that the bots stuck on Earth are still what amounts to fresh to the fighting for the average Cybertronian. 🤔

Okay, since you asked to send asks. I've been trying to get a proper understanding of the Sonic mythology for the longest time.
As in what exactly classifies as gods, demons, demigods etc. I'm still not exactly sure if the Zeti would be classified as supernatural beings or just a species. Like so far they're kinda in between for me.
That being said I would love to know your thoughts on them. Do you see them more as demons/other supernatural beings or more so as just funky rainbow fellas who kinda look like Onis if you squint? (Also I know they're supposed to be Onis in Japanese, but I see it more as just a name in this situation since they're clearly not the proper yokai, so the question still stands)
Species.
The way I see them and with all the headcanons I've written or need to write about them, I see the Zeti as a regular species. There is nothing supernatural about them- at least not in Zeti as a whole. Some of them like Zor can do weird funky magic stuff, but that's on an individual level.
And I agree, in universe they are not Onis or Ogres ; they're not yokai, they're not mythological creatures. They're just a bunch of technicolor dudes (gender neutral) living on their funky little planetoid.
That being said, one of my headcanons is that Zeti and Mobians went to war with each other in the (very) distant past. And with most Mobians averaging around 100cm/3ft tall, you can imagine how terrifying being faced with a roaring horned beast twice their size would be. So I'd like to think that perhaps, if Onis and Ogres exist as tales and myths in the Sonic universe, they were inspired by old stories of the war against Zeti. Descriptions passed down through generations become more and more fantastical ; memories told as stories morph into legends of demons from another world.
So yeah, I view the Zeti as a regular species. However, I think it would be really cool if this regular species that was seen once by Mobians several millenia ago and then disappeared possibly inspired myths and legends and transformed into entirely new creatures in in-universe folklore.

Onion and bambi..
Bambi ran as fast as she could, she needed to go back home away from the possessed group. They would KILL her if she dosent run away as fast as possible. Bambi ran into the near by forest too seek refuge, she probably ran for a good 10-15 minutes reaching here. She collapse on the leaves and stick filled ground about of exhaustion. She was scared as heck but at least she's far far away from the possessed gang's base. She fell asleep hoping she wouldn't get found by any of the possessed and corrupted minds of her former friends. Bambi woke up after 1 hour of sleeping. She heard a sound, a twig snapping, leaves rustling within hearing distance from her. She sat up from her sleeping spot, was it an animal she thought, she could be in danger if it was an animal. She hoped it was atleast a small creature who found her. She looked around peering into the darkness in hopes of finding the source of that sound .when she looked behind her, 2 purple slits glared right at her, they glowed an ominous purple…she was been found…
The shadowy figure emerges from the darkness and reveals their true identity. It was onion. She made a sick smile knowing what's she was about to do to bambi. She stared down on her with pure hatred and disgust. She was pretty happy though upon seeing her prey weak and helpless. Bambi had no escape from her dirty grasps. Onion swiftly tries to pounce on bambi and kill her but bambi miraculously dodges it and hurriedly runs away from the corrupted vegetable. Onion runs after her going deeper into the forest when suddenly bambi trips on an overgrown tree root and falls down defenceless. Bambi looks up to see Onion holding her knife above her head ready to kill her and destroy her. Onion: good bye unless child Bambi stared in horror as onion was about to meet her end. Tears rolled down her cheeks knowing this wouldn't help her in the slightest. She was weak,defenceless and unable to even simply run away efficiently from the possessed 17 year old. Onion was about to stab the poor child with no sympathy wen suddenly someone head butted her chest catching her off gaurd. Bambi saw an opportunity to escape and ran away from this start of a fight. As bambi looked behind her for one last time, she noticed who saved her life… her sister.
Onion looked at everest furiously, her eyes were Turning red, her face only showed anger and rage at this planetoid. Onion: WHY DID YOU DO THAT?! YOU DEMOLISHED MY CHANCE OF KILLING HER! Everest looked at this corrupted vegetable with disgust. This wasn't her friend at all, only the husk of her remained…this fucking demon….took away her precious friend Everest:SHES MY SISTER! AND NO ONE HURTS MY SISTER Everest quickly grabs the knife that onion dropped and tried to stab onion. This then lead to a fight where they brutally hit blows on eachother. Their fury at eachother powered and motivated them to hurt the other more and more. Onion then suddenly made her hand glow purple and halted their little fight. Everest was stunded, she couldn't move and was stuck like a stone statue. Onion stood up and pulled her hand up high. Everest was floating within the air unable to escape her little friend's grasping hand. She tried to escape but it lead to no avail. Onion smiled sickly at what she's done, she had won this fight. Only she was cheating, she had no right to do this.
Onion: I hid my telekinetic powers for so long from you guys so you wouldn't find a solution to stop me, I knew you were possessed but not fully corrupted by me. That little child is stopping you from following my commands so here's my solution. Onion blinked and her pupils transformed into hypnotising swirls. Everest tried to not look at them but she eventually succumbed to the soothing motion of the calming swirls. She eventually passed out and onion threw her onto the ground without any sympathy. Onion: good night my dear~ and please kill your parasitic sister will yah? I hope you wake up feeling "better" Onion left everest in the forest as she falls deeper to the possession…deeper and, deeper..

Do you still meet some of the members of the sheild of solus from time to time like elita, moonracer and firestar?
"Zoomy" Arcana Magnus: We do. Danielle and I adore hanging out with them when we can. We stayed together as a unit for much of the War, combining frequently all the way through to our deployment alongside the Wreckers and Autobot Intelligence to defeat the Decepticon Justice Division's last major fortress and liberate the prisoners there- including the prototype Primus/Unicron planetoid form who took on the name Gaea and Cybertronian she pronouns after our attached Cityspeakers and Greenlight helped cut through the Funcronist* code impeding her processes.
*(Funcronism is an amalgam of Functionist and Unicronist ideologies, and Funcronist infiltration of the Decepticons and running their judicial faction while gaslighting Megatron was instrumental to the Decepticon's descent from autocratic stratocracy into totalitarianism which was eventually responded to with the Decepticon Civil War, a story for another time)
And we stayed together after that. Those who didn't already live there moved to Caminus with me, dear neighbors and extended family besides darlings Greenlight and Lancer and Chromia (Chromia's more Windblade, Nautica, Road Rage, and Strongarm's partner but my end of the polycule does enjoy tangling with her from time to time, sparring and dancing in particular something we enjoy among other aspects of intimate trust that we smooch over occasionally). Though Cybertron is currently the political capital of the Autobot Alliance once more, there is much talk about moving the gathering of our highest delegations and councils back to Caminus, which was the de facto capital for a significant portion of the war. Elita, Galebreach Convoy (Windblade's formal Prime name) and I and many other Primes have already set up a secondary Primal Expanse here, no easy feat with how much Matrix cyberform architecture we had to do, exhausting. Anode (also a Matrix bearer, she elected not to change her name), had an innovative approach of having blacksmiths aid us in the shaping, so it at least took less time than it did in ancient days for Solus and her early colleagues.
Lifeline and I tend to chat over a boardgame or meditate together. Moonracer and I love to go racing, Firestar of course I see frequently since she is amicably enamored with Nautica and her Amica Endura polycule (consisting of four previously named alongside Rung, Nightbeat, Brainstorm, Velocity, and Skids), and Elita, Greenlight, Lancer, and I have spent quite a bit of time learning Cityspeaking in order to stay in touch with Gaea.
"Arcsword" Danielle Witwicky: the Shield of Solus has also grown as an organization in peacetime. Given my position in it continuing the now ancient transformer society iteration of multispecies membership in nearly every intergalactic group transformers have had a major part in forming- we have had more from the galaxy join us in this capacity and have become teachers of a sort about the War, and about peace. I'll never forget the look on Solus's face when she told us thank you, for transforming her name into something far beyond her status as a Prime. A delta vector of change, an amusing parallel to the Delta League of Prof that instead reclaimed a monarch Solus's Forge of Solus Prime as gender expansive symbology and because of the history of her federation closely entwined with affirmation practices and gender affirmation across Cybertron before the First Cybertronian Civil War (this name of a conflict we've mentioned here is a canonical conflict in IDW1, where "Prof" Arcee is from but nothing else we have said in regards to that continuity in this post is canonical).
"Prof" Arcee: though I worked with a Novastar (no, not the Camien Firestar, a different gal, the military civil guard commander of Uraya early on during Nova Prime's rule) and Lifeline in the Delta League, what I would have given to have Greenlight, Chromia, Lancer, and Moonracer of my world beside me in the often armed liberation movement against Functionism and Nova Prime- save for the fact that I would never have wished that upon them. The way conflict went on and on and how most of us left was so sad... I would chalk it up to how equivalently annoying it would be to live for 4 million years as guerrillas against a Shockwave whose first response to discovering the Shield of Solus was to yell "FEMALES!?"
"Pistoleer" Arcee: yeah your Shockwave and mine were real pieces of work when it came to gender huh. I'm glad to still be in touch with my Shield of Solus team, they did vital work for the liberation and defense of Cybertron and Earth during my more well known adventures (this is also not canonical per se, if only). Being away from Greenlight and Lancer often was excruciating even though duty demanded we attended to our posts, I thankfully no longer have to worry about that. We still hang out together, actually currently we are looking for colonies we lost contact with or that fell, in particular to keep be able to respond in places where er 'Female Autobots didn't go extinct' which is impossible without destroying the two entwined ideas and all sapient life...
Prof & Pistoleer: *laughter*
"Pistoleer" Arcee: that said directly experiencing Danielle's two adolescences through our binary bond was maybe one of the largest challenges I myself have faced, and I was certainly amused by the second one, and did all I could to help her with both. No wonder organic bodied people have a hard time with hormones, with all the stuff they do! Truly admirable how you all live in your flesh.
"Flanker" Danielle Witwicky: right back at you. A Cybertronian staying in good health means a lot of mechanical upkeep, and I feel it every time Lifeline has to give you a tune-up. The fact you don't heal the same way I do makes things complicated.
"Pistoleer" Arcee: touche kiddo.

Borderlands: Skies the Ultimate Treasure Hunter
Skies arrives on the planet Gehenna.
--
Bounty of Blood Part 1
Gehenna: a rocky, arid planetoid orbiting uncomfortably close to a gas giant. The plains on its surface swarm with packs of bandits and Saurians the locals call ‘devils’. In the middle of it all is the small town of Vestige looking for some peace.
The town has been at war with a group of bandits called the Devil Riders for decades. In an attempt to win, the Sheriff of the town put out a bounty of blood. The Vault Hunters- Moze, Amara, Zane, and FL4K- answered it.
After they arrived on Gehenna, they made their way to Vestige where they met the Sheriff. He seemed to have high hopes for them and showed them the town treasure- a giant, black rock with glowing green gems they call the Obsidian Stone. Some of the townsfolk believe it keeps the devils from attacking their home. But it attracted a different sort of danger.
The Devil Riders assaulted the town not long after the Vault Hunters’ introductions. They fought against the bandits valiantly, a true display of their deadly skills. But they weren’t fast enough to save the Sheriff.
In front of the Obsidian Stone, the brave man lost a shoot-out against the leader of the Devil Riders, Butcher Rose, and she buried a bullet in his guts. As he lay there, bleeding out, Rose’s muscular minions surrounded the stone. Strapped to their backs were large, circular devices. Golden lights spun around their circumference as they whirred to life, encasing the Obsidian Stone in a big, black bubble that quickly shifted to show the inside of a large, elaborate room.
Butcher Rose tapped the bubble, its surfacing shimmering beneath her fingers. Then she stepped through it. The bubble fell apart with an explosion that blew the Devil Riders over. Butcher Rose and the Obsidian Stone were gone.
Using their devices, the remaining Devil Riders also disappeared from the town as the Vault Hunters hurried to the Sheriff’s side. Using the last of his strength, he gave them his badge with his final wish. “Find Juno. Badge is hers now.”
The Vault Hunters now stand over the Sheriff’s body. They didn’t know him long, but they could tell he was a respectable man. As Moze pockets the badge, they turn to leave to find this ‘Juno’.
“Damn shame, that.” A voice speaking with the local accent- albeit rather messily- stops them. They look back to see sitting on the roof of a nearby building a friendly face, wearing a dark pink cowgirl hat.
