"You have daughters at home… I can't let you do this."

"They have their mother, they'll be alright."

"Their mother then, she'll need you."

"She has never needed anyone in her life. Let me do this for you, you don't have anyone else that will. And you've a life ahead of you."

Welcome to....

Thelx

Thelx (derived from Thelxiepeia of greek myth) is a club in the Over—reachable only via use of The Lift a teleporter used between Earth and the leisure district Over (a station in Earth's orbit that boasts a collection of clubs, bars, shops, and dining)—known for its nightlife, and its attachments to the underground circuit.

The club is currently owned and operated by Jaime Loyd, who has overseen a major shift in the club's clientele and general operations as well as a total rebrand. Thelx gained a reputation as a safe haven despite being heavily regarded as a den for the nefarious, and criminal dealings.

Thelx extends a recurring welcome to new artists, with weekly open mic nights. And the commissioning of the Alliance's newest up and coming performers.

9 for the soulcode crew

9. Do they have supernatural abilities? What’s the stupidest thing they’ve ever done with these abilities?

No supernatural abilities unless you count cybernetic enhancements (jace) or underwater alien breathing (jaime). As for stupid... I don't know they're both pretty level headed. Of course an enhanced Jace has a track record of being a more reckless Jace, if that counts? Less likely to die, ya know.

Welcome to....

Crey

Crey is a part of a planetary system neighboring Earth's. It boasts a vast ocean, covering most of the planet. Though it is known for its selection of islands that make up the planets land mass. Crey was originally inhabited by an aquatic people, more akin to sea creatures of early Earthen legend than its people. Recognized by their rigid scales and ferocious teeth and their ability to love fully aquatic lives in their flooded cities and above sea level in their island settlements.

As part of the Space Expansion Act, humans colonized the planet. And with time, the two species merged. Creating a new people of hybrids. Distinctly human in nature, but sharing certain characteristics with their Creyn ancestors. Rows of sharp teeth, patches of scales, the ability to breathe both air and water, and eyes adapted to the lower lights of the oceans deep. It is strongly believed that no more of the full-blooded Creyn's remain; a species extinct.

The islands of Crey, an archipelago that makes up the planet's entire land masses, are an elite travel destination known throughout the galaxies. Sandy beaches. Lush greenery. Whipping winds off of the sea.

Conservation efforts are of great importance amongst the Creyn people, many efforts taken to negate the harsh impact on land and sea of the planet's tourism scene. Lobbyists vying for an end to the industry all together, despite Crey's history as a human colony.

The flooded cities hold the most of Creyn life. The harsh conditions of the sea floor largely preventing unwanted visitors and preserving Creyn life and culture beneath the surface.

Number 10 for the OC asks

10. Would they go on long road trips? Who and what would they bring?

Oh definitely, put the whole crew in a beat up minivan or something. Stephan, Jaime, and Evelyne take turns driving. Jace and Tessa are absolutely not allowed behind the wheel at any point. Cyrus is in charge of music, probably using some old mp3 player hooked up with an aux cord. He's the only one that can pull a nice mix of everyones individual specific tastes. Skye organizes the rest breaks; organzing the collection of snacks/meals, bathroom breaks, and getting the gas tank filled up. Cyrus is tossing water bottles at people to make sure they stay hydrated while he's downing redbulls monsters and coffee with no concern for his own health. Jace and Stephan book the hotel rooms whenever they stop for the night, it's always some cheap roadside place and they sneak everyone into one room. Tessa's in charge of navigation. No one has accurately packed what they need for a long trip. It's chaotic but theyre having fun.

[projectsoulcode]

not even through the first bit of the outline and I have surprised myself with a plot point I hadn't considered before, and hurt myself in the process

22. Favorite friendship in your WIP?

Probably the one between Tessa and Cyrus, they have a nice understanding of each other. Even if they don't really seem like they get along all that well. They've got each others backs and make sure niether of them self destructs too badly. See through each others bullshit a little better than the rest of the crew
