PLEASE READ!!

first of all, i wanted to thank everyone for applying! the characters were all so interesting and developed that it was genuinely hard to pick.  HOWEVER, if your character is not in the main cast, i still encourage you to read because they will appear later on as a minor character! even then, they're going to have a big role in the plot!

to the main cast: i'm actually not doing establishing connections this time! i figured i'd take a load off your back, and i want to surprise you all with it as well haha :) if there's anything specific that you'd like me to take into account when writing interactions between characters, please PM me!

that being said, i would like you to comment two things: are you okay with the crew being in a poly relationship? (totally okay if not!) if yes, please elaborate as to how your character would fit within the polycule. if no, please comment potential love interests for your character (if any). i will only write the polycule if everyone is okay with it, and it would likely be a non-hierarchical relationship, where everyone is equally important in the relationship, and everyone gets a say when it comes to important decisions.

please comment your answers here! >

anyway, i hope you're all as excited for this as i am! i'm still in the process of some miscellaneous world building (and probably will be throughout the story), but chapter one should be out soon!
