If you had to brutally narrow it down to just one, who’s your favourite of your original characters?

[lordterronus]

If my character is actually two or more characters in a trenchcoat, does that count as cheating?

If I have to stick to just one, I'm picking my bi disaster superhero, Solara. She's probably the one I come back to in my head the most.

[cv-celeste-aka-solara]

HA! Hear that, everyone?! I'm the favourite!

Shouldn't I be mentioned?

SHUT UP VORTEX!!!

No.

Eh, one of these days that'll work.

Your failure fuels me. Keep trying.

I will, but not because you told me to!

[cv-nobody-and-associates]

EVERYTHING BELOW THIS POST IS NOW OFFICIALLY NON-CANON!

Well...sort of.

To explain, the character of Nobody is being rebooted. I've found she became a character too difficult to actually use for anything given the complexities of her lore and story, as well as her abundance of powers and skills.

So, I'm undoing things and starting from scratch. Kind of.

Here's the short version - all knowledge of Nobody has been erased from the multiverse, and Nobody herself was seemingly killed in a terrible and now unknown battle. I've been referring to it in my head as "The War That Never Was".

Nobody as she was has died, but a new version of her has reformed, lacking any of her prior self's memories and experiences. All characters previously associated with Nobody - such as Katra, Delgra, Nao, etc - lack memory of her and have had their lives reset to before they ever met her. Nao's case I'm not 100% sure on, I'll come back to that at a later date.

All of the prior threads and stories about Nobody have now essentially not occurred. Events like Nobody's past and origin are in a state of flux - it's unclear what is and isn't still true about her past.

[cv-celeste-aka-solara]

Already mentioned on Katra's blog, but I want to note here that Solara now has no knowledge of Nobody and any previous meetings or involvements - such as The Unseen thread - are now non-canon.

Nothing else about Solara's lore is changing, this is specific to Nobody. So all other threads and posts remain untouched.

[katra-aracnai-caenis-cv]

It had been several months since moving to Creatorverse, and Katra still had no idea what to make of it. Besides a brief appearance in a now-cancelled tournament, she hadn't seen much of the city.

When Nobody, her new...room-mate? Mentor? The woman was rather evasive on anything specific. In any case, when it became clear she lacked much in the way of food and drink for physical beings, she leapt on the chance for a grocery run.

"How much did she give us again?"

"No clue." Katra sighed as she walked on her way back home. She held about six bags comfortably filled with whatever looked good. She didn't have any favourite foods really - her diet had usually been strictly controlled. "The card went through okay, so it seems all legitimate. But no ATM gives me a clear number."

"Wonder where she gets the money. Assassination work seems like her thing."

"If she were an assassin, we'd be dead." Katra reminded her spectral companion. Gold was more docile since the tournament., perhaps taking Nobody's advice on working together to heart. Or perhaps just biding her time before something big. Katra tried not to question it. "She's not after our bounty."

"He wouldn't be the first assassin to not kill you. Remember thar catboy you like?"

"Yukimi's an exception." She took a few more moments to register what her companion had said. "A-and I don't like him, okay?! Stop s-saying that." Gold barked out a laugh that Katra chose to ignore.

Which became rather simple to do when it was abruptly cut off.

"Oh hey, it works!" Katra spun, turning to an alley where she saw...herself? A grinning mirror image of her holding what looked like some kind of remote. "Soul interference sure is handy, huh? Betcha your friend's all quiet now! You're welcome!"

Katra dropped her shopping bags immediately, tensing and readying herself for movement. "Who are you?!" She demanded, sounding perhaps more desperate for an answer than she would've liked.

"I'm you, silly!" The doppelganger insisted. "And him, and her, and them. I'm whoever I need to be! But since that's unhelpful, let's go with Avi for now." It bowed theatrically. If this were an assassin, she suspected it was of the deranged actor variety. Surprisingly common in her experience.

"Deranged? How rude!" The doppelganger pouted. "I come out all this way only for you to criticise me in your head? Not cool." It shook its head. Katra's body shook in turn.

"You read minds?"

"Somebody does, and I'm everybody!" Avi extended its arms out as it spoke gleefully. "People have all sorts of powers in this city, and I have a taste of a lot of 'em. I only have your looks on the outside though. Can't get more until later."

"What happens later?" Katra took a fighting stance, expecting the answer. She wasn't ready for Avi to move faster than any eye of hers could blink, however.

"It'll be more fun to show you...!" Katra barely had time to turn before her vision was eclipsed with black. There was a piercing pain in her head, presumably from an attack. She couldn't tell.

Everything went dark.

.

..

...

...

"Katra? Pick up, please. I can't seem to reach you any other way and this infernal contraption is annoying at best."

"You're not there, are you? Dammit. Now I have to make some more calls."

.

..

...

Katra's phone sat in the street, it's power draining and cracked screen flickering.

She couldn't hear it.

She was busy listening to them.

"The subject has been obtained successfully, director." A muffled man's voice. It sounded low and strange, as though it was speaking without a mouth. She couldn't see anything.

"Excellent work, Doctor McGee. Your pet project has outdone itself." A woman's voice, strong and firm. Yet there was somehow also a weightless quality to it. It floated to your ears yet demanded your attention. "The data acquired from the primary target was helpful, then?"

"Yup!" Her own voice. Familiar yet alien. "The whole Z and P incident worked wonders! Now we know exactly how to deal with soul interference. I'd thank them, but I don't think they like me." It sounded almost sad about that for a moment.

"Their favour is not required, Avi." The woman said calmly, comforting the doppelganger. "Only the results matter in an experiment. Opinions are irrelevant."

"You're just sayin' that!" Katra heard her own mouth stick it's tongue out playfully. "Probably jut 'Cause she'd hate this, right Vo-" Katra tried not to flinch and thus give away her consciousness as she heard a sharp gasp escape the doppelganger, followed by a metallic impact.

"Call me director, pest." She could feel there were eyes on her as the voice spoke again.

"After all, you never know who's listening."

Katra struggled against it, but a hint of a whimper escaped her mouth unwillingly.

Screams came next.

[cv-nobody-and-associates]

Nobody was not the kind of person to act on emotion, least of all paranoia.

The seventeen different messages she had left at various people's inboxes were thus entirely logical choices.

Katra had been missing for weeks, and she couldn't track her. Initial attempts proved useless. Her mind was absent, no doubt meaning she was being contained somewhere that had the capacity to block telepathic communication. Of various kinds, as well.

Her body was similarly impossible to find. But the soul, that was present in some form. She felt traces around the city, and a stronger portion was much further away.

She was alive, at least.

"Does anyone have any idea who could have taken her?" Nobody asked the monitor, upon which several faces were displayed. The Realm Defence Squad - or RDS for short - as well as a few other allies of hers. Most had nothing, but one voice spoke up.

"I think I do." A disturbingly familiar voice said, and Nobody fought the urge to shiver. Maintaining composure was usually easy for her, but around duplicates it became a smidge more tense.

There had been incidents in the past, after all.

"Don't keep me in suspense, Nao. What is it?" Her voice remained calm, firm and with only thr barest hint of frustration in it. Said frustration wasn't even her own. Oira had been restless since the situation became clear.

"I think it might be Mythos, ma'am."

Nobody stilled.

She was a being of logic. Collected focus. Not blind emotion. Never impulse, especially one that would be unhelpful to the mission.

The shriek she let out, one pounding and bursting with untold years of rage and fear and God knows what else was therefore a critical act for the mission.

As was the accompanying shattered glass, table smashed by a purely logical fist and sense of anxiety that pooled off of her and spread throughout the mansion. Possibly even into the island.

"WHERE DID YOU HEAR THAT NAME?!" A voice emerged from her face against her will. Not her own, she was fighting to bring that back. "THEY'RE DEAD, THEY HAVE TO BE! AFTER WHAT THEY DID I KILLED THEM, I MADE THEM SUFFER, WE WERE SAFE, WE-!"

Her face finally managed to go back to the usual question mark visage, though her body sagged at the effort. Holding Oira back right now seemed to be...exhausting.

"Apologies." She managed. "But, are you certain? This is a sensitive subject." The image of Nao on the screen nodded, clearly shaken but doing her best not to show it.

"Y-yes, ma'am." She said, the smallest stutter betraying her otherwise calm face. "Delgra-"

"Stick to codenames on business calls, Nao."

"Sorry." Her grey skin flushed red for a moment. "DragonGal and I found records of the organisation in the library terminal. Something seemed off about them, so we began investigating."

"I can confirm." DragonGal nodded, her arms crossed and expression harsh yet steady. It was no secret that she had something against Nobody, though recently things had been worse than usual. When it became clear her return didn't mean Nao would be leaving any time soon, she started to relax, but whenever the two interacted there was something weighing on her.

Nobody didn't mind. Distrusting her was practically encouraged as far as she cared.

"What did you find?" Nobody asked, gently massaging her head in a fruitless attempt to calm the migraine Oira was inducing. Veldra was silent as usual, but Nobody could feel a sense of concern radiating off of it. Something that had been otherwise unheard of.

"An entity we refer to as 'Echo'." DragonGal continued. Images were displayed - some kind of skeletal creature with a burning green flame instead of a head, with bits of code engraved on otherwise black bones. "I've been tracking it, and in the process we ran into some active facilities."

"I trust you had good reason for not informing us-" Nobody sighed and rephrased. "Not informing me?"

"The entity mentioned you." Nao said. "They seemed strangely aware of you, leading us to suspect it had some ability to interfere with our data and communications. The fact that we found it whilst analysing our computer files supported this, so we didn't risk communication."

Damn her, that was a good reason. Nobody bit back her anger - it wouldn't help the mission, she reminded herself. Yelling and hitting things wouldn't help Katra.

"Given how urgent this situation is, we figured it was best to consider all options." DragonGal said, with the slightest hint of smugness, like she could see Nobody's discomfort and enjoyed it. "Based on what we know of Mythos's MO, they seem like plausible culprits. The girl's alive, but out of reach to any means besides direct soul tracking. Smells like a trap."

"Katra." Another voice, one that had been otherwise silent throughout the call, chimed in. "Her name is Katra."

Nobody had never been quite so appreciative of Solara's voice, and her willingness to cooperate when lived were in danger.

"Right." DragonGal rolled her eyes. "So, Katra's being held in such a way as to almost lead us to her. Given what you told us about her, her divine-ish nature makes her Mythos's ideal target. And based on your reactions..."

"They're trying to make you angry and get you to storm off for her." Solara realised. DragonGal made a dinging sound with her mouth. "Nobody, listen-"

"You go."

"Eh?"

"You go, Solara." Nobody said patiently. "Take Nao with you, you'll need someone who can trace souls. If you're right, and this is meant as a trap for me, I can't go."

"LIKE HELL YOU CAN'T! WE HAVE TO!"

They all ignored Oira, something Nobody was sure she would regret later.

"You two are the most powerful people I can count on for this." She continued. "Plus, you're far better with people than I am. If Katra is in a dire state, you're better to aid her."

"I..." Solara trailed off for a moment. Nao was quick to pick up on her apparent nerves.

"Don't worry, I'm willing and able to cooperate." She said with a patient smile. "Together, we shouldn't have any problems."

"I-I guess..." Solara said, uncharacteristically quietly. She almost seemed scared. She shook her head for a moment, seeming to dismiss the emotion. "No, you're right. A young woman is in danger, we need to act fast. I'll do it."

"Excellent." Nobody said, breathing a quiet sigh of relief. "DragonGal, I want you and BugBoy on the Echo investigation. Find that thing and figure out everything you can about it."

"What about Lord Terronus?" BugBoy asked. The boy was remarkably patient for his age, a mere 15 years. He knew better than to interrupt before he was addressed and seemed to harbour no dislike of her that she could see.

"He'll be on perimeter duty." She said. "There was a disturbance near Zen's home recently anyway, not uncommon but worth checking regardless. The rest of you, dismissed." She waved a hand, closing the holographic screen and ending the call.

"I don't like this."

"Really! I thought you were thrilled." Nobody groaned sarcastically. She collapsed herself into one of the many lavish chairs strewn around the house. "Care to explain what all that was about?"

"You...you don't remember?"

"Bits and pieces." Nobody said. "Something about a lab, the button, tests, protecting someone - you and Veldra, I'd assume - but the details are frustratingly fuzzy."

"I only see the past feelings." Veldra finally spoke up. "Rage. Fear. Confusion. Desire, then hatred."

"I-I'll try to explain..." Oira stammered. Nobody nodded patiently, accepting that for the moment there was little else thar she could do but listen to her companion's story.

Every word made her more and more concerned for Katra.

But she was not of emotion. She was of reason.

So she clutched the armrests with perfectly logical tension.

[cv-celeste-aka-solara]

Solara hovered just a few feet in the air, watching as Nao tinkered with a large grey door that was camouflaged in stone. From a distance it appeared as just a cluster of rocks sticking out from a mountain in the forest, but the two of them both knew better by now.

Katra was being held there. She could feel it.

Sensing others emotions was an experience difficult to describe. The closest analogy she could think of was that it resembled singing - everyone had a certain tune that shifted and flowed as they did, and Solara was the only one who could listen.

Katra's song was distant, weak and yet furious.

"You took your time." Nao said. Her voice held a teasing note in it, but all Solara could do was huff and cross her arms.

"I was in the middle of something." She said defensively. "Busting an intergalactic criminal, in fact."

Nao sighed. "Sorry to interrupt, then. Are you ready?"

No.

Solara knew that was the wrong thing to say, so she didn't dare voice it, but she wasn't ready. Something about this whole thing seriously bothered her.

It was all so...

Familiar...?

"Ready when you are." She said instead, dropping her usual hero voice. As fun as it was, the two had to be stealthy if they wanted to proceed.

Nao raised an eyebrow, but before anything could be said, the door began to open, the metal groaning as two sides split to create a path. The two entered the facility.

The walls were grey steel, the floor black tiles. Little light could be seen past Solara herself, and there was no sign that anyone was present. Solara could feel them, though.

"We're being watched." Nao said. A black, goopy hand emerged from Nao's suit, shushing Solara and gesturing to a camera. There was a tiny yellow light, indicating it was on.

"R-right." Solara nodded. She gently went to push the suit-hand back, but it retracted back into Nao before she could. "Thanks for the hand?" She said.

"Hm?" Nao looked up. "Oh, she just does that sometimes. She moves without me telling her to. Sorry if it freaked you out." She chuckled a little.

"She?"

"The suit." Nao clarified. "I like to think she's a she. It just...feels right, you know? She doesn't talk but she'd definitely be able to object."

"Right..." Solara nodded uncertainly. She shifted her focus, trying to sense the people in the facility. "Katra's definitely here. Someone else is with her. Or, maybe in her?"

"That's probably Gold." Nao explained with a nod. "She was mentioned in Nobody's file."

"Some kind of alter-ego manifesting as a result of a magical artifact embedded in her soul." Solara found herself saying. "The artifact lacks a physical presence beyond her body, existing in a conceptual state."

"Uh...yeah, that sounds right." Nao scratched the back of her head. Solara touched her mouth for a moment, confused. "How'd you know?"

"I...I'm not sure."

This felt wrong. She tried to discuss Nao's questioning look and focused instead on trying to identify the people in the facility.

"A-anyway, they're definitely both here. I think they're in pain." Solara said. "There's a few scientists with them and..." She stopped, focused, tried to listen again.

"And what?" Nao asked. "What are you getting?"

"Nothing." Solara said after a moment. "Two nothings. They're people, I should be feeling something, but instead it's just...a distinct absence of anything." She wasn't on the ground, but she made the motion of stepping back regardless.

"Nao, I don't like this. Something's really wrong here." She confessed. "This place is messing with my head."

"Mine too." Nao mumbled. "I can feel something just looking around, but I don't know if that's me feeling it or...someone else."

"Yes! That's it!" Solara smacked her first into her other hand. "I thought I was the only one! Do you think it has something to do with Katra? Maybe using Gold somehow to mess with us?"

"Maybe..."

"There is a far simpler explanation."

The room lit up in crimson, screens revealing a face Solara never wanted to see again. An image of red that filled her with a cold fury and disgust.

"No...no, you can't be here!" She yelled, her body trembling. "YOU CAN'T!"

"I see you're confused. Unsurprising. Perhaps we can discuss this in private." The voice - her voice, the voice that wasn't supposed to speak again - was smooth and calm. There was a sharp hissing sound, and the tiles of the floor began to fall apart.

"Shit!" Nao cursed, falling swiftly into the now opened floor, a black abyss opening up beneath her. Solara tried to reach her, but she found herself unable to force her body to move.

"I'll catch up!" Nao called out, gripping hard onto a tile that threatened to fall. "Don't worry about me, focus on why we came here!"

"I can't just leave you!" Solara cried, forcing herself closer. She tried to reach out, but the tile fell before her hand could.

Nao was falling.

It was her fault.

"I'll be fine!" Nao called out before her voice was lost to the abyss. A clear lie to comfort her.

No one would be fine. Not if that face belonged to who she thought it did.

"Follow the red lights." The voice said, and a series of red bulbs began to light a specific path, the rest of the area going dark. "You shall find the truth there."

"SHUT UP!" Solara screamed, her voice filled with hatred. "I don't care what you have to say! Where's Katra?!" She readied blasts in her hands, the blinding light of the energy within nearly blocking the red altogether.

"If you want me to tell you, you'll have to make me."

Reluctantly, still shaking violently with barely restrained fury and a sense of terror so powerful she couldn't dare acknowledge it lest she let it drive her mad, she lowered her blasts. She glared at the red lights before sighing.

"Damn you." She hissed, slowly allowing herself to drift along the illuminated path. She couldn't risk moving too quickly in case there were more traps than just the disappearing floor.

That's what she told herself, at least. In truth, she was just dreading whatever came next.

“Damn CV’s market doesn’t have like,, half the things I need. My ships still busted too, guess I’ll have to get the off world stuff delivered”

They pushed a rickety basket through another isle of produce, wheels squeaking louder than jet engines

[cv-celeste-aka-solara]

Solara was flying around the city of Creatorverse, taking up her usual superhero patrol. It was a good way to clear her head. She would be meeting up with Nao at some point later to track down a Mythos facility holding Katra - but all of that could wait.

She glanced down at some strange creaking and squeaking sounds, reminding her of the groaning uncertain metal of many a ship she'd seen in space. Come to think of it, a spaceship had crashed near Zen recently, hadn't it?

"I should investigate." She decided, floating down for a closer look.

"Excuse me!" She called out to a person seemingly...dragging a ship across the ground? Both the person and ship looked vaguely familiar. Had She seen them I space before? "This isn't really a good place to park." She joked.

@creatorverse-slime

[creatorverse-slime]

Oh must be a worker, guess this part of the market doesn’t allow carts

They hastily shove the entire basket into their inventory

“SORRY ABOUT THAT MISS! HEY CAN YOU TELL ME IF THIS PLACE HAS ANY shit what sounds like a made up sci fi word UHH FLUVVITERS?? THE FRUIT KIND NOT THE BOMB KIND made that mistake before,,”

[cv-celeste-aka-solara]

"Ohh, yeah those are pretty hard to find." Solara nodded. Fluvviters were particularly tricky to find, especially on worlds like Internia - a world that whilst full of both magic and advanced technology, was lacking I terms of space travel.

Wait a minute...

"Those are illegal in this part of the Galaxy!" The realisation struck her. Fluvviters contained dangerous chemicals that weren't typically permitted in world's within this sector. "Why do you need them?" She asked cautiously. She was no stranger to skirting the edges of the law, but she wouldn't help commit a crime without a good reason.

Speaking of crime, this person reminded her of something. A wanted poster, maybe? It would come to her in time, she knew.

@creatorverse-slime

[creatorverse-slime]

“Oh I’m gonna be throwing a kickass welcome home party at my place and i need em for uhhh- fruit punch, yea fruit punch,, medical fruit punch”

Shit they didn’t know Internia fell under a jurisdiction, this is the last thing they needed.

Hopefully this market worker whose suspiciously well versed in galactic knowledge won’t recognize me,, nah my hairs grown out so there’s no way

@cv-celeste-aka-solara

[cv-celeste-aka-solara]

"Wait, if it's a party then why is the fruit juice medical?" Solara scrutinised the strange person. Their story definitely didn't fully add up.

"This sounds like the kind of thing Slime, the intergalactic criminal would do." She thought aloud. "In fact, you look a lot like them! Well, aside from the hair." She stared for long enough for it to be deeply uncomfortable, floating right in front of their face. Eventually, she sighed.

"Oh well, I suppose if it's for some important medical reason I should help. Superheroes gotta help people in need." She relented, crossing her arms and floating back a little. "I can let you borrow mine, but you have to be careful." She insisted. "This stuff is very dangerous in the wrong hands, and I can't have people using them for evil."

"Oh, I should probably introduce myself - I'm Solara, the greatest superhero this world has ever seen!" She boasted, adopting a proud pose. "Who are you?"

@creatorverse-slime

[creatorverse-slime]

Phew she doesn’t suspect a thing

“I’m Slime the intergalactic criminal”

….

“Wait-“

[cv-celeste-aka-solara]

Solara stared for a solid ten seconds before sighing. Of course this was happening. Of fucking course she had to deal with an intergalactic criminal on top of everything else she had going on today.

"I was really hoping you wouldn't say that." She sighed. She took a fighting stance, still floating just a tiny bit off the ground to avoid the risk of being tripped up. "Now I have to beat you up and take you to prison. I mean, you could just surrender, but that doesn't normally work."

"I'll give you one chance - surrender and turn yourself in, or I kick your ass."

@creatorverse-slime

[creatorverse-slime]

“Stupid never surrenders”

They throw off their jacket and roll up their hoodie sleeves

“BRING IT ON YOU WALKING MARVEL NARRATIVE”

[cv-celeste-aka-solara]

"I WAS HOPING YOU'D SAY THAT!" She called out. She didn't have adrenaline like humans did, but she felt that if she did it would be spiking very high as she began to charge forth, prepping an energy blast in her hand.

Then, her phone rang.

"OH COME ON, NOW?!" She groaned, pulling it out of...it wasn't really clear, honestly. She was an energy being and she wasn't wearing any clothes in this form - she lacked any of the usual human traits that needed covered, as her form was more of a humanoid shape than anything. "What is it, I'm in the middle of something-"

Some noise was heard from the other side of the phone, prompting her eyes to widen.

"You found it?! Already?!" She exclaimed, almost jumping back. "Wow, Nobody hires a good team. I'm on my way, be there soon!" She hung up the call, turning back towards Slime with a frustrated expression in her face.

"It's your lucky day, bozo. I've got something more important to do." She turned her back to them. "But if I see you doing anything here, to this city or especially the people in it..."

Her voice shifted, and for the briefest moment there was a blood red spark in her eyes.

"I won't hold back."

With that, she burst away into the air at high speeds, leaving Slime. They were certainly a criminal, but they didn't come across as especially dangerous. She'd leave them be for now. Until they did something bad on the city, she didn't really have much cause to act.

But she would keep an eye on them.

"I was really hoping you wouldn't say that." She sighed. She took a fighting stance, still floating just a tiny bit off the ground to avoid the risk of being tripped up. "Now I have to beat you up and take you to prison. I mean, you could just surrender, but that doesn't normally work."

"I'll give you one chance - surrender and turn yourself in, or I kick your ass."

“Damn CV’s market doesn’t have like,, half the things I need. My ships still busted too, guess I’ll have to get the off world stuff delivered”

They pushed a rickety basket through another isle of produce, wheels squeaking louder than jet engines

[cv-celeste-aka-solara]

Solara was flying around the city of Creatorverse, taking up her usual superhero patrol. It was a good way to clear her head. She would be meeting up with Nao at some point later to track down a Mythos facility holding Katra - but all of that could wait.

She glanced down at some strange creaking and squeaking sounds, reminding her of the groaning uncertain metal of many a ship she'd seen in space. Come to think of it, a spaceship had crashed near Zen recently, hadn't it?

"I should investigate." She decided, floating down for a closer look.

"Excuse me!" She called out to a person seemingly...dragging a ship across the ground? Both the person and ship looked vaguely familiar. Had She seen them I space before? "This isn't really a good place to park." She joked.

Oh must be a worker, guess this part of the market doesn’t allow carts

They hastily shove the entire basket into their inventory

“SORRY ABOUT THAT MISS! HEY CAN YOU TELL ME IF THIS PLACE HAS ANY shit what sounds like a made up sci fi word UHH FLUVVITERS?? THE FRUIT KIND NOT THE BOMB KIND made that mistake before,,”

[cv-celeste-aka-solara]

"Ohh, yeah those are pretty hard to find." Solara nodded. Fluvviters were particularly tricky to find, especially on worlds like Internia - a world that whilst full of both magic and advanced technology, was lacking I terms of space travel.

Wait a minute...

"Those are illegal in this part of the Galaxy!" The realisation struck her. Fluvviters contained dangerous chemicals that weren't typically permitted in world's within this sector. "Why do you need them?" She asked cautiously. She was no stranger to skirting the edges of the law, but she wouldn't help commit a crime without a good reason.

Speaking of crime, this person reminded her of something. A wanted poster, maybe? It would come to her in time, she knew.

@creatorverse-slime

[creatorverse-slime]

“Oh I’m gonna be throwing a kickass welcome home party at my place and i need em for uhhh- fruit punch, yea fruit punch,, medical fruit punch”

Shit they didn’t know Internia fell under a jurisdiction, this is the last thing they needed.

Hopefully this market worker whose suspiciously well versed in galactic knowledge won’t recognize me,, nah my hairs grown out so there’s no way

@cv-celeste-aka-solara

[cv-celeste-aka-solara]

"Wait, if it's a party then why is the fruit juice medical?" Solara scrutinised the strange person. Their story definitely didn't fully add up.

"This sounds like the kind of thing Slime, the intergalactic criminal would do." She thought aloud. "In fact, you look a lot like them! Well, aside from the hair." She stared for long enough for it to be deeply uncomfortable, floating right in front of their face. Eventually, she sighed.

"Oh well, I suppose if it's for some important medical reason I should help. Superheroes gotta help people in need." She relented, crossing her arms and floating back a little. "I can let you borrow mine, but you have to be careful." She insisted. "This stuff is very dangerous in the wrong hands, and I can't have people using them for evil."

"Oh, I should probably introduce myself - I'm Solara, the greatest superhero this world has ever seen!" She boasted, adopting a proud pose. "Who are you?"

it’s always “your redemption is something you have to work towards for the rest of your life” and never “how was the unhinged spiral into evil? the unhinged spiral into evil looked fun”

[creatorverse-official]

After some time, alarms started going off in the council building.

[cv-celeste-aka-solara]

"Shit!" Solara cursed angrily. Finding the person Shandy mentioned was proving to be far more difficult than she had imagined, and the constant chattering of raccoons all around was doing her withering patience no favours.

If only they would all just shut up so she could concentrate...

If only they were all JUST GONE!

"No, shut up!" Solara yelled to no one but herself. "I don't have time for you right now. She might be in trouble, and I'm not going to let her down again!" Bitter tears fell from her face and burnt the ground below as she turned mid-air towards the council building.

"Just let me save her." She again pleaded with no one but herself. "It's time to be the hero."

She felt a surge of energy flow through her, like nothing she had felt before. And yet, somehow, there was something a little familiar about it.

Melancholic, in a way.

"Thank you." She whispered to no one, before she sped off. The air around her pulsed, and it was several moments later before she registered the small sonic boom, a sound just loud enough to silence one last whisper.

"Don't thank me yet. Just do your job."

[creatorverse-official]

Not far away, something crashed. More clanging sounded, and then footsteps running away before it went almost silent.

[cv-celeste-aka-solara]

Such a peaceful near silence was interrupted as Solara burst into the building, her expression determined and furious. Energy charged within her hands as she floated just above the floor.

"Hello?" She called out. Hesitantly, she floated around the building carefully, hoping to find any sign of either Shandy or the one she described. She couldn't be sure whether the alarm was intentional or not, after all.

She went swiftly to follow the faint sound of footsteps she had managed to catch as she entered.

[creatorverse-official]

The hint of black hair could be seen of something rushed through and crashed through the window, running out of the building. Money and other paper fluttered in wake of the movement, leaving a trail.

[cv-celeste-aka-solara]

"So this is all an elaborate robbery." Solara sighed. She swiftly followed the trail, eager to catch the one responsible for all this chaos.

"Get back here, thief!" She called out in pursuit.

[creatorverse-official]

Orca continued to run, heaving. She splashed some kind of water on her head as she kept running, trying to lose Solara.

[cv-celeste-aka-solara]

Solara remained relentless in her pursuit of the thief, remaining hot on her heels no matter where the thief tried to run.

"Alright, we tried the nice way." She grunted. She raised a hand and fired off a sharp blast directly towards the legs of the thief, aiming to force them to stop running. At the same time, she accelerated to better match the thief's pace.

She wasn't about to let them escape, no matter what it would take.

[creatorverse-official]

Orca tripped, a fin appearing on their back as they stumbled but didn’t fall- continuing to run.

[cv-celeste-aka-solara]

"Alright, that's it!" Solara yelled, accelerating even faster. Pushing herself, she moved in front of where the thief was running and fired a blast directly at them.

If she was lucky, they would fall over, whereupon she would grab them to stop them from moving further.

[creatorverse-official]

Orca fell over, crashing into the ground with a garbled curse.

[cv-celeste-aka-solara]

Wasting no time, Solara quickly grabbed the thief and restrained them. With her superhuman strength it was easy to pick them up and trap them.

"Gotcha!" She cheered. "There's easier ways to get money, you know. Next time, maybe try just a food stall or something."

She channeled some energy through her ear, triggering an earpiece that was hidden within her starry form.

"Shandy?" She spoke and knew the device she had given her friend would hear her. "I've caught them. Whoever they were, they were pulling a robbery. We're not far from the council building."

@cv-shandy-oof

[cv-shandy-oof]

“Great! Uh- anyway you can recover the documents and other paperwork? The money would be nice too but it’s not nearly as important.”

[cv-celeste-aka-solara]

"No problem!" Solara replied happily. She flew into the air and grabbed as much of the paperwork as it was possible for her to carry, which given her superhuman strength was basically all of it. All whilst at the same time dragging around Orca.

Once she was done, she returned to the council building and found Shandy, dropping the thief at her feet as she entered the room.

"Here you go, one collection of paperwork and one mean thief! All in a day's work." Solara grinned, puffing her chest out a little as she handed Shandy the paperwork.

@cv-shandy-oof

[cv-shandy-oof]

Shandy smiled gratefully. “Thank you so much, Solara! Uh- if you wouldn’t mind putting them in one of our aquatic cells? I think a good portion of our force was, uh, transformed. We’ll have to deal with them later.”

[cv-celeste-aka-solara]

"No need to thank me, it's what I do!" Solara replied, even though she was clearly beaming from just the simple act of being thanked. She picked Orca back up.

"Alright, let's get you to a nice aquatic cell, where you can swim around and think about all you've done." She said, before turning and walking away. She waved at Shandy as she left to go find a free cell.

"See you, Shandy! If anything else happens, just shout and I'll be there." She called out as she left.

[creatorverse-official]

After some time, alarms started going off in the council building.
