I turned this sideblog into a separate, main blog.

Dan Heng is taking this time to explore Okhema, familiarizing himself with the city where they will be staying for an undetermined amount of time. Whether they finally make contact with the Express and find a way off of this world, they can't leave Amphoreus in its time of need now that misunderstandings have been resolved. They would likely be leaving it to its ruin without their help. There would still be the matter of the Astral Express' fuel issue to tend to, as well.

With little information on Amphoreus known to the universe outside of its pocket dimension, now would be an opportune time to collect data for the data bank until deciding their next move. It is while returning to the bathhouse that he encounters Agalea, perhaps leaving the baths herself.

"Lady Aglaea," he nods to her in greeting. "I was actually coming to see the baths again. I can't speak for my companions, but the baths here are the most luxurious and spacious that I have had the opportunity to experience. They're very soothing and have a wonderful atmosphere. I can't think of any bathhouses that can compare to Marmoreal Palace."

A smile, soft and of unknown sincerity, graced Aglaea's lips as she heard the visitor's assessment. Well, it's only natural for her to feel a swell of pride in her, given that this is her most favored part of Okhema. How appropriate then, that his is to be where the two of them should speak.

"Truly? Well, I'm delighted to hear that. I understand that such praise is not levied upon something lightly." Well, her ego was sufficiently stroked, that was certain. Though a slight shift in posture followed. A subtle, barely noticeable drooping of the woman's shoulders underlined the thoughtful shutting of her eyes, and barely audible expelling of breath.

"And yet, it seems, that relaxation is the furthest thing from your mind at present." Thoughtfully, the demigoddess' eyes opened again, hazy pupils regarding the form in front of her. She wouldn't say it out loud, but there was a hint of a thought in her mind. A nagging feeling that perhaps she played a part in the feeling of restlessness she got from the two visitors from the cosmos.

"I hope my prior actions haven't soured your opinion on Amphoreus all too much. I understand it likely wasn't the welcome someone who took our burdens so willingly deserved. So I will ask plainly; Do you hold resentment toward me for that?"

No one calls Aglaea nicknames.

But she 100% would love it if certain people did.

[threadsofromance-old]

This is very accurate. That is all.

Short starter for @talesforged (Dan Heng)

"Ah. Esteemed guest from afar. I am pleased to have run into you. Pray tell, how have you been finding the baths we have to offer you? I would be very interested to know how they hold up to someone who must have seen countless worlds and felt all manner of experiences."

It's still a little chaotic here, but...

Like for a short little starter from Aglaea!

Profile

Name: Aglaea. Age: Unknown. Birthday: Unknown. Hometown: Okhema. World: Amphoreus. Species: Demigod. Orientation: Demisexual. Type: Lightning. Path: Remembrance. Profession: Leader of the Chrysos Heirs. Dressmaster.

Eyes: Clouded irises, going from turquoise to a gold. Hair: Short, golden-blonde hair, with brighter yellow underlayer kept in a bob. Often adorned with flower and laurel accessories. Height: 5'9"/180cm. Distinguishing Physical Features: - Barely visible pupils which seem to meld into the color of her irises. - Tattoo of a golden branch on her upper-left torso. - White floral pattern tattooed from her right forearm down to her index finger.

Personality: As the leader of the Flame-Chase Journey, Aglaea presents herself in a very purposeful manner. Outwardly, she is cordial, hospitable, even a hint mischievous. However, she is acutely aware of her position of trust granted to her by her people, and below the surface is someone who is driven, calculating, and aloof. Despite being the bearer of the Coreflame of Romance, close confidantes will notice that she can be cold-hearted, distant, and manipulative to the point of resorting to threats to achieve what she needs to. In her mind, the ends do very much justify the means.

That is not to say that Aglaea is heartless. She sees the threads of fate and seeks to twist them to create a resilient future for her people. Indeed, this very gift is both what fuels her power, and what widens the distance between herself and the affairs of the masses.

Rules

- This is a sideblog. Follows will come from my main blog, @compelledbyflame.

- Minors DNI. Mun is 29 years old. For my own comfort, I will not be interacting with muns under the age of 18.

- Personals DNI. This also just makes me uncomfortable.

- Independent. This blog is not affiliated with any closed RP groups.

- No godmodding. Along with all the other basic etiquette of not harming or killing off my muse without prior discussion.

- Trim posts if possible. It keeps the dash from looking messy. If this is not a possibility for you, do let me know and I can accommodate. On a similar note:

- Make asks into new posts for threading. Again, it just makes things look more neat. I am happy to take care of this if you are unable to do so.

- This blog is multiverse and multiship. I am happy to RP with multiple of one particular muse.

- This blog is open to OCs. HSR or fandomless OCs with a HSR verse are welcome.

- Tentatively open to crossovers. I may be down to RP with non-HSR muses, assuming I'm familiar with the IP.

- Don't involve me in drama. This includes trying to get me in on your callouts, witch-hunts, or other playground bullying.

- Be respectful on anon. You're welcome to send unprompted questions, banter, or rp in my asks. But using it to spread hate or being otherwise malicious will not be tolerated.

- My portrayal is my own. This version of Aglaea is based on canon, but with my own headcanons where I deem it suitable.

- Don't police or gatekeep muses. If you don't like my portrayal, unfollow me. If you do this to other muns, I will block you.

- Let's discuss ships. I don't like shipping out of the blue. If you are wanting to ship romantically, please let me know in OOC-chat that this is where you want things to go.

- No forceshipping. I won't tolerate it if people try to force their muse onto mine. Especially after I explicitly say no.

- Don't try to circumvent a block. I try to be open-minded and lenient. But if I do block you, do not try to get around that, as it will simply make me keep blocking you.

- This list is not final. If the need arises, more rules may be added.

Thank you for making it to the end of my rules. There are no passwords, so I'll just trust you to have read these. If you have questions about any of the rules, feel free to reach out.

As for me; I go by Hiku. I'm 29 years old (As of 2025). I'm non-binary and you can use: they/them, she/her, he/him. It all kinda works. I'm back from a long hiatus of roleplaying due to life being a bit crazy the past few years. Feel free to talk to me about nerdy stuff. Discord is available if you'd prefer that line of comms.
