Random snippet. Toshiro & LP share their first sunset on Astro's world (idk where Astro is, he might be there too & just quiet, or he might be elsewhere).
~~~
“One day,” said the Little Prince, “I saw the sunset forty-four times.”
Toshiro blinked at him. “… How?” he asked.
“My planet’s so small that all I have to do is move my chair a few feet, and I can watch the sunset all over again.”
“They must not last very long,” said Toshiro.
“No,” said the Little Prince. “But one often loves sunsets, when one is very sad.”
Toshiro looked at him again for a brief moment, then fixed his eyes back on the sky. “… Yeah.”
After some quiet, the Little Prince spoke again. “I miss my rose,” he said.
Toshiro didn’t reply.
“Others might look at her and see any other rose, but to me she is unique in all the world. I’ve tamed her, you see, so now I am responsible for her.”
“Tamed?” asked Toshiro.
“Mm-hm,” said the Little Prince. “My friend Fox taught me all about it. It means, ‘to establish ties’.”
“I see,” said Toshiro.
Another silence passed between the boys.
“I don’t think those ties always go both ways,” Toshiro said quietly. “And they’re not always made with good intentions, either.”
The Little Prince looked surprised. “Really?”
Toshiro nodded. “Ties can be exploited by those who seek to do harm, or who don’t take their responsibility seriously. And it’s devastating to the ones it hurts.”
“Devastating,” repeated the Little Prince. He contemplated for a while. “I didn’t know I’d tamed my rose, or what that meant, until after I met Fox. I was too young to know how to love her. It broke her heart when I left.”
“Where did you go?” asked Toshiro.
“To that other Earth I told you about,” said the Little Prince. “That’s where I met the Aviator. He tamed me, too. But then I had to leave, and go back to my asteroid, and to my rose.”
“You had to leave one tie behind in order to maintain the other,” Toshiro mused.
“The tie is still there,” said the Little Prince, “between me and the Aviator. He can look at the stars and hear my laughter, and I still have the drawing of a sheep he made for me.”
“And you have sunsets to remind you of your rose,” Toshiro observed.
“Who is your rose?” asked the Little Prince.
Toshiro startled a little at so keen a question. He crossed his arms.
“Who is your rose?” the Little Prince asked again.
“Her name’s Hinamori,” Toshiro mumbled. “We grew up together.”
“She’s tamed you,” the Little Prince observed.
Toshiro nodded. “I’m… not really sure if I’ve tamed her, though,” he admitted.
“Have you gone through the rites?” asked the Little Prince.
“The what?”
“Rites,” said the Little Prince. “It’s how you establish ties; it’s how you tame someone. I tamed Fox by showing up at a certain time every day. After a while, we began to need each other.”

Welcome to a world you can know as Benstremoth(bean-stre-moth). One not so different from our own except for its roots in magic. Magic used to be free until something people believe called the "order" came in and put the positions of syndics(archons) into place, categorizing magic into its core elements to be used. But that's all just stories of another time(lore post here for when i make it-)
What's important for now is the city of water, where our 4 protagonists reside. All humans(?) who have had boons bestowed on them by the Order. These 4 go through many troubles in their lives, but this blog is also a separate place from all of that. So please dont worry for their safety for now. Let's meet these 4, shall we?
First off, Liane.
She is the young star of the gaurds, being one of the youngest captains in history. Though her duties and general workings have her more as a scout, talking to people and keeping the peace. For when things can't be solved with talking, she uses a spear and her ice boon to incapacitate criminals and bring them in. shes also loyal to a fault. Useful to the water syndic.
next is Arata,
He is one of the best to-be lawyers in his class. With only a year left of schooling, she hopes to become one of the water syndics judges in the high courts. She and Liane have also been best friends from a young age. Very useful. Not much else to say about him on record. Has an electric boon
Third, Mary
Lady Mary Anne, deaconess of the pure water church, or otherwise known as just Mary. She does most of the charity work with the church, taking care of each and every citizen she can with her fire boon. A avid healer in a rather ironic way. With well, being so cold and such a thorn in my side.
And lastly, Lucien
a normal citizen with a water boon. There's not much to say on him except for his unusual look. With so many prostetics, it's strange to think him even human. He must look familiar to you, though Lady Delmare?
Well well, with this bunch, things shall be very interesting... i wonder how it will all play out in the end.
