Incorrect quotes featuring my Starline ships.

Hakir, holding Skipper’s hands with doe eyes: You’re the love of my life and my best friend, I would do anything for you. Skipper(Nyx), deadpanned: I want you to eat three meals a day and have a decent sleep schedule. Hakir, disgusted: Absolutely not you psychopath.

Hakir, swirling his drink: I’ve been dropping them the most insanely obvious hints for like a year now. No response. Skipper(Nyx), sitting next him: Wow. They sound kinda stupid. Hakir: But they’re not. They’re actually super smart. Just dense. Skipper(Nyx): Maybe you need to be more obvious? Like, I don’t know… “Hey! I love you!” Hakir, turns to him: I guess you’re right. Hey Skipper I love you. Skipper(Nyx), stupid asf: See! Just say that! Hakir: Holy fucking shit. Skipper(Nyx): If that flies over their head then, sorry man, but they’re too dumb for you. Hakir: Skipper.

Hakir: I truly go into full housewife mode when I'm in love. Like I’ll make you pancakes and bacon every morning. Skipper(Nyx): This is a lie. Skipper(Nyx): I'm literally dating him. He’s lying. Skipper(Nyx): HE DOESN’T EVEN KNOW WHAT A PANCAKE IS. WHAT IS THIS.

Ruby, looking outside the window: The stars are so beautiful… Breckett: You know they’re only giant balls of gas. Ruby: You know what, if you're just going to ruin this, then- Breckett, tail around her: And yet none of them are as huge as my love for you. Ruby, hand to her chest: Oh…

Breckett: You look good in that hoodie. Ruby, smirks: You know where else I'd look good? Breckett, blank face, zero hesitation: My bed. Ruby, at the same time: By your side- wait, what? Breckett: Ruby:

Breckett: I owe you one. Ruby: That’s okay you can just date me and we’ll call it even.

Skipper(Nyx): Wow, Hakir, you want to hold my hand before marriage? How awfully lewd of you. Hakir: We literally slept together yesterday. Skipper(Nyx): That's NOTHING compared to the lewdness of holding hands.

Hi. I salute everyone who uses tumblr to write ANYTHING. Especially on mobile because I hated every moment of writing this but I just had to write a snack for the three Breckett fans and (insert number) Hakir fans.

Anyways since I’ve added Hakir and Skipper to my writing I’m introducing my version of Skipper who’s a twink like me. He acts like he’s an evil scientist but he’s really not. He has long blonde hair, green eyes, and stands at 6’2ft. He used to be a literal whore but he has issues (abandonment) that prevented him from committing to anything. And if you were to tell him his soulmate would be a green tall and handsome he would laugh in your face. He used to target Hakir as a form of pettiness and entertainment because Hakir was an ex-sentinel. I like to think Nyx scrambled to get as many jobs behind Hakir’s back to pay him back all those credits he stole from him after they got together. He’s clingy but acts like Hakir’s delusional when Hakir says he is. And he smokes so it’s a back and forth between them when Nyx is trying to get Hakir to stop drinking yet also refuses to stop smoking. I’ll write more about Nyx and Ruby later.

Random Breckett/Ruby headcanons and scenarios  A/N: Writing for my babies because even if they’re not my top interest right now they still have a very special place in my heart.

Ruby has very thick and very curly hair, so it takes a lot of maintenance especially when living on a different planet. You have no idea how your hair could react to the air on another planet. So she switches between products during different seasons but always uses clarifying shampoos only to keep her scalp clean and keeps her hair in twists most of the time unless she’s going off-planet. After Breckett and Ruby did it for the first time during Starline 1, Breckett became comfortable enough to ask questions about her hair. He liked playing with it a lot before going to bed with her and sometimes took naps with his cheek pressed on it. When Ruby told him her hair needs lots of care and a whole routine he was slightly horrified because he realized she had no zero items to take care of her hair (which added to his guilt about taking her off her planet).

“It needs to be cleansed once a week and moisturized in order for it to curl naturally, so right now it’s just dry puff.” Ruby picked at her own hair, a small smile on her face until it fell when she noticed Breckett’s stunned expression. “...C-Cleansed? Why? Does it get infected easily? Does it get irritated or cause you pain if you don’t cleanse it? Oh please tell me you haven’t been in agony this whole time while you’ve been letting me twist and twirl it every night before bed.” Breckett looked at her with a very concerned and guilty expression. His brows kitted together and his gaze flickering between her face and her scalp. “No, Breckett.. I haven’t been in ‘agony’.. It’s just very itchy and I’m thoroughly surprised you haven’t noticed the dandruff in my hair.” Ruby tried to calm him down. “What the hell is dandruff?” Breckett said in a more worried tone which only made Ruby groan.

In my version of Starline, Ruby went back to Earth, Breckett fought in the war against the Sentinels, and when the Sentinels found Earth Breckett quickly went to Earth to find Ruby and he rescued her off a Sentinel ship. I like to think at some point, Ruby took him back to Earth for him to visit her home town and rambled to him about what her old routine consisted of.

Ruby was 20 when Breckett crashed on her and took her through space. She was much more naive and clueless about things, because why wouldn’t she be? She is around 35 during Starline 2 and much less friendly and open to other species and people in general. Breckett was the one exception because he had hospitality and he won her over with his nervous, awkward demeanor. After Breckett rescued her he started teaching her how to fight with a variety of different weapons but he insisted on teaching the basics even if she wasn’t very good at handling them.

If you do a deep dive on my blog using tags you’ll find a picrew art I customized, kind of showing what Ruby looks like. But when I picture her she’s sort of a mixture of Calypso and Mel Merdarda (why? Because I can)

Their theme song for me is Moments in Love by Arts of Noise.

Ruby messes with Breckett’s tail sometimes. Patting the end of it and watching it move away instinctively because it’s ticklish. She does it again with a small smirk and it moves away again. Just as she’s about to touch it again he sits up on their bed to hover over her. A disapproving look on his face. Ruby stares up at him, a little sheepish. “What? It’s funny messing with your tail.” Ruby says with a grin on her face. “Mhm.. but when I play with your curls suddenly it’s not funny anymore.” Breckett retorted. “Because you ruin the curls every time you mess with them, that’s why!”

Breckett likes staring at her. Like a lot. Especially when she’s doing her daily routines; brushing her teeth, washing her face, doing her makeup if she’s going out somewhere, and then doing her hair. He REALLY loves her makeup even if every product’s purpose confuses him to no end.

“Ruby, may I ask why do you need—uh—” “Blush?” “Blush— yes. Why do you need this? Humans blush naturally don’t they?” Breckett asked, holding the tube of pink product. “Well.. it’s just to add some color to my face. Make it less dull.” “I thought that was what the highlighter was for?” Breckett said with a confused look on his face. “No, highlighter is to make my face glow. Blush just adds color to my face, and makes me look more.. Um.. warm.” “Oh, I see. That still doesn’t answer my question on why you need it if you can do it naturally.” “Breckett, just hand me the damn blush.”

Breckett had so much trouble sleeping after she returned to Earth. He was used to their routine before going to bed. He’d play in her hair, they’d talk about their upbringings back on their planets, and eventually Ruby would fall asleep first before Breckett would shift positions and fall asleep to her heart beat. It was her heartbeat that soothed him to sleep, and he didn’t have that to comfort him during the war. The night he got to sleep with his ear to her chest was probably the best night of his life. He refused to let her get up from bed when she woke up.

He’s her number one protector against racist dickheads. I headcanon that a majority of races were very distrusting towards humans when humanity started exploring the galaxy more. So Ruby has had a few unkind encounters. She’s in her late 20s now, so she’s not helpless considering she knows how to fight and she’s got a lot of attitude up her sleeve. But Breckett doesn’t mess around with discrimination, especially involving race. I headcanon he’s definitely got some trauma associated with discrimination from the Sentinels and low-lifes alike. I can assure you the midget of an idiot harassing Ruby was not expecting to be hauled up by the back of their collar by a blue Serptium twice her size and dwarfed them in comparison. Breckett doesn’t like being violent, so there was some restraint in him. He simply dropped them on the ground, pressed a boot to their leg so they wouldn’t run off, gave them a calm threat coming off as a promise more than anything, and then let them scurry off.

Now if the perpetrator in question was perhaps bigger than Ruby and Breckett, and perhaps more cocky than the last, then Breckett had no issue whipping pistols and making a scene.

Breckett doesn’t do a show of PDA when off planet, but in the little community he has with Ruby? He’s always touching her somehow. Hand-holding, tail around her leg, chin resting on the top of her head, hand on her shoulder or upper back, and quick smooches when passing by.

During Starline 2, when Breckett told Ruby he was gonna go on Argus’s ship and help his crew with a mission, they got into an argument. It was more Ruby fearing for his life and Breckett assuring her he’d be alright. She threatened to kill him when he returned and then turned around to approach Hakir and threatened to kill him if he didn’t make sure her giant blue husband didn’t come to her alive and in one piece.

I like that we’ve all mutually agreed Breckett is blue and amphibian(for the most part).

I headcanon he’s like a giant cat. He takes a lot of naps when he can because he hasn’t been able to get that kind of rest in so long. He sleeps on Ruby’s lap or on her chest. However on Argus’s ship he is a little on edge and doesn’t nap as often.

Ruby learned how to make his favorite dinners after doing a lot of research off-planet and gathering ingredients. She’s made some trades and considering Breckett taught her his language it isn’t as hard as it would be to learn the recipes and purpose of each ingredient. Which you can only find at Serptium owned businesses and they are very hard to find for whatever reason. Ruby surprised him with an old recipe he hadn’t eaten in a long time and he ate two meals that night if you catch my drift.

By the way the bedroom eyes from this blue giant are crazy. Bedroom eyes are really just him heavily admiring his partner. He really likes admiring them and is very prideful of what they are capable of. He likes how different they are from him yet still similar you know? So watching them properly handle business whether it’s a trade deal or putting someone in their place can get bedroom eyes from him. Or simply acting stupid on purpose to annoy him can get that look from him too. Sometimes it’s a small smirk, arched brow, and half-lidded eyes, other times it’s a giddy smile and he’s batting his eyes at them. (Insert Breckett kicking his feet like a teenage girl)

Oh yeah and we can all agree Breckett acts a fool when he’s drunk right? He has definitely done some fucked shit before in the past because he’s always trying to limit his alcohol usage. Remember in Starline 2 when he said “I’m gonna stop here before I make a regrettable decision.” Wtf has this idiot done in the past that he knows he might do again if he gets shit-faced. I mean we know he gets talkative and flirty when he’s tipsy but I’ve made a list of reasons why probably dislikes alcohol. List of possibilities: 1. He talks, as we already know.. He speaks before he thinks and spills secrets he normally wouldn’t say. 2. Similar to 1 except he just acts before he thinks and depending on the environment he’s in he probably A. Gets into a fight; B. Accidentally destroys an important item, relic or decoration; or C. Starts taking off his clothes. 3. Depending on how drunk he gets he starts mistaking people for someone else. (He mistook Skipper for Ruby at some point and when he realized they weren’t Ruby he started panicking and ran around, trying to find Ruby before he tripped on something.) 4. Becomes a party animal and it depends entirely on the kind of the party it is cause then he’s either indulging in too much food that will tear up his stomach or he’s on a stripper pole.

Either way Breckett has a lot of stories and he would like to not relive them.

He growls. Take that as you will. I can also see him liking any lip product that tastes sweet. Lipgloss, chapstick, it doesn’t matter.

My favorite interpretation of Breckett is the one created by space_moths on Twitter. Don’t get me wrong I love KitnKatz design but I’ve always had a thing for the head tendrils idk why. They make him look very handsome. Which brings me onto my next headcanon(that’s also kind of canon), Breckett wears rings on his head tendrils. If you’ve seen one of the beautiful artworks done by space_moths you’ll see Breckett had metal rings on his two front tendrils, which was a detail I really liked. I think Breckett would really like dreads or braids with lots of pretty jewelry on them so you could match. And speaking of matching I really need someone to draw Breckett and the listener wearing matching pajamas.

THIS IS NOT PROOFREAD SO THERE MAY BE SOME MISTAKES BUT I'M TOO SLEEPY RIGHT NOW AND I WANT THIS MINI PROJECT OVER WITH.

[celestialhole]

I also believe more in the staying home ending. Even though it’s more painful I think in the long term it’s better. And realistically the listener also has people they care about like family and close friends that I don’t think anyone would like to give up on AND Breckett has the chance to do what he wanted to do and fight in the war and close a chapter in his life without the subject hunting him. And I like to think that after they meet when the earth opens to the rest of the universe that they travel. The listener seemed curious about space and they could visit planets and that gives a chance to breckett to experience the new world without the bad situation.

And I also think that differences in species meets different senses. Not a VERY big difference but humans can have better hearing and smell but I think that breckett could have better eye sight and balance

AND idk that might be my dumbass but I think that there could be a slight difference in body temperature. Breckett mentions a lot when they are on cold planets “YOU must be freezing” and that doesn’t mean that he doesn’t feel it but he feels it not so strongly, like humans when it’s summer bearable but not necessarily comfortable. So when sleeping I like to imagine that he feels like a cold pillow

I’m sorry if there are any mistakes, English is my sencond language 😭 take care ❤️

OOOOO THIS IS INTERESTING KEEP EM COMING.. Also you and me we see each other when it comes to the staying home ending. I like the ending because it adds more angst and creates more character depth for both the listener and Breckett. I also just really like the idea of badass soldier Breckett and him being old friends with Hakir before the events of Starline 2. I think Breckett would also react differently to different textures. Example: In my head he wears a black suit that feels like reptile skin but much rougher and more thick so it acts like a thick hide. To him it could feel like nothing but bumps against his skin whereas the listener it would probably scrape you if you rubbed against it wrong. So BECAUSE Breckett is partially amphibian in my world he most definitely has better senses under water versus above ground. That doesn't mean he's utterly helpless above ground, he's just probably a little more prone to getting flanked than others, like Hakir. I'm also completely against the idea that his tail is like sensitive as fuck. The tip of the tail? Ticklish, but not overtly sensitive. And depending on the opponent he's up against it could also be very useful in a fight. Your body temperature theory put a funny image in my head of Breckett burning his ass off on Earth during summer and then just looking at his partner who is unphased, perhaps a little irritated, but not dying like Breckett is. Normally if he's on a hot planet it's to run a quick errand. But because this is his partner's home planet he has endure a whole vacation of heat.

@gav-va Can you ask Breckett to just come pick me up instead. I've waited three years for him to crash on me and I'm a teensy bit tired now

[jinx-you-lose]

I remember watching the first Starline series, it was one of my favorites when I started listening to Audio rp. I was so shocked by the existence second series and now I'm SO HYPE FOR THE THIRD!!!

[id-rather-be-a-druid]

Not to be sappy and domestic on main but you keeping a greenhouse and a million houseplants on the refugee planet, tending to them in the afternoon into the evening whilst Breckett makes dinner and you can hear him bustling around in the kitchen from outside
