Sarantos - Starting Over

“Starting Over” is a new single by Sarantos, a Chicago-based singer-songwriter. It’s his second single in 2024, serving as a perfect follow-up to “Love Is Love,” “Rain Guitar,” “The Time (For Miracles),” “I Thought,” “No One Promised,” and many more singles released this and last year. Still, this particular composition delivers some innovation in writing, composing, arranging, recording, and…

starter for ﹕@svftlove.

plotline ﹕she doesn't know what costas does for a living or the fact that he's trying to shape her to fit his very own needs.

muse ﹕costas sarantos.

they stumbled through the elevator doors to his penthouse apartment, lips fused together after a dinner date. costas didn't usually date, but he was aware that in this case, he needed to wine and dine, in order to reap the rewards. he'd been lying to lyanna for months and at the end of the day, he didn't feel the slightest bit guilty about it. in no way, shape or form was costas embarrassed about his family enterprise, quite the opposite actually. however it had become increasingly difficult to find willing women who gave him the right sense of satisfaction, with his particular needs, while also knowing that he was the heir and right hand man to a successful criminal organization. that's where lyanna came in. they got along well and she was impressionable enough that he'd slowly begun shaping her like a piece of dough, to suit his needs. it helped that she thought he was no more than yet another rich businessman in the city. costas waited for the elevator that opened up into his apartment, to close behind them before he moved to lift her up and wrap her legs around his waist, never once letting go of her lips. "baby..." he finally whispered against her lips as he walked them towards the large sectional in the spacious living room. the only light in the room came from the city below, illuminating a blueish hue through the floor to ceiling windows. "i need you on your knees," he growled after nipping at her lower lip and letting their kiss come to an end, while lowering her to the floor.

Eclipsed Chronicles Character Bios

Part I: The Main Four

It’s about time I introduced you lovely degenerates to the story @stellarnightstars and I are writing together! Or..well..have been writing together. This thing is fuckin’ five years old at the time I’m posting this.

The bios will be in four parts: the main four, the legionaries, the side characters, and the antagonists.

Before I go into heavy detail, there’s a plot point I must discuss. The story takes place three years after a seven-year-long war between two nations: Gardenia and Imago. Both counties were in a state of fascism: Imago due to the nobles thinking they were superior because they’re fae, and Gardenia due to its heavily militaristic government. To keep things simple, I’ll say that the war was declared because one of the six Gardenian Legionaries, Spartacus, wanted to show off Gardenia’s military might, and what better way to do it than to challenge the fae supremacist King Dante? Thousands of innocents lost their lives, and even children as young as 13 were drafted as soldiers. Only when Spartacus was imprisoned and Dante died did the Great Rift finally end. A new set of Legionaries were crowned in Gardenia, and a new king was crowned in Imago. Both sets of leaders now work tirelessly to fix the mistakes of their predecessors, and make their people’s lives happy ones.

Because I can’t draw to save my life, I’m using Picrews once again to portray the characters. The ones I’m using are made by brightgoat and crowesn.

Ekaterina Eos

Age: 24

Pronouns: She/Her

Sexuality: Bisexual

Height: 5’10”

Nicknames: Katya (by friends and family)

Voice Claim: Samantha Béart

Fashion Sense: Piratecore fused with a Russian tsar fused with a Russian mob boss

Most Proficient Magical Skill: Ice and Snowstorms

Hobbies: Fencing, acting, singing, playing various instruments, and gambling

Favorite D&D Class(es): Skald and swashbuckler

Personality: Charming and bombastic, Ekaterina is what any pirate captain would aspire to be. There’s nothing she loves more than a day at sea. She craves adventure, which naturally leads to her causing chaos. However, despite her penchant for chaos, she’s strangely maternal. She still works in the army as a captain, and it’s her job to train some of the new cadets (kinda like ROTC in America; world-building will be in a post of its own). She loves them as if they’re her own children. She will go through hell to protect those she loves, even if it entails her death. No matter how hurt she is, she will always put the needs of others above her own. Against enemies in battle, she is a brutal fighter, something she’s grown to love and despise. Due to her actions in the Great Rift, she thinks of herself as a monster who cannot ever be loved.

Phoenix Eos

(The hair color on crowesn’s Picrew is more accurate)

Age: 26

Pronouns: She/Her

Sexuality: Asexual

Height: 5’6”

Voice Claim: Lindsay Mendez

Most Proficient Magical Skill: Absorption

Fashion Sense: Dark academia mixed with Noir

Hobbies: Archery, reading, researching, and watching corny B-movies for a laugh

Favorite D&D Class(es): Investigator and warlock

Personality: Serious and cynical, Phoenix knows all the ins and outs of the world and how to bend them to her will. From a young age, she knew how terrible the world was. You can thank her abusive biological mother for that. She’s a realist, knowing both the good and bad parts of the world well, and how little good there is in the world. Escapism is a foreign concept to her, as she cannot fathom what a world where she’s truly happy would even look like. When she’s home, she’s usually the one that has to keep Ekaterina, her step-sister, from doing anything too stupid. When she’s away, she takes her job as an ambassador quite seriously. She works herself to death so that peace isn’t broken, for the peace of the world is directly tied to her inner peace. You can thank what she’s seen during the Great Rift for that, specifically when she had to have her left arm amputated.

Sebastian Sarantos

Age: 25

Pronouns: She/They/He (mtf)

Sexuality: Lesbian

Height: 6’1”

Nickname(s): Bastian (by friends and family)

Voice Claim: J. Micheal Tatum

Most Proficient Magical Skill: Spirit Communication

Fashion Sense: Vampirecore and gothic Victorian

Hobbies: Writing, composing, reading, playing instruments, ballet dancing, and opera singing

Favorite D&D Class(es): Bard and cleric

Personality: Sweet and flamboyant, Sebastian does whatever she can to make people happy. She feels everything very deeply—basically she’s an empath. The arts are her life and her soul, and she’ll spend hours talking about her poems and compositions if you let her. They’re quite melodramatic, speaking like a 19th century vampire in their everyday speech. Their role as a legionary is to be an archivist of sort; they keep records, write down history as it happens, and bonk politicians on the head with a history book when their ideas would probably lead to history repeating itself. They like to research history and magic outside of their job—it’s one of the reasons why they don’t resign and become a full time poet and musician. They’re very non- confrontational, which is weird for someone in a political position. She can debate and get her ideas across just fine, but her anxiety and fear of older authority doesn’t exactly help. No matter what she does, it’s extremely difficult for her to bring herself to physically harm another. He hates that he can’t fight. He hates that he isn’t the bold leader the world needs him to be. She hates that she cries so much. She feels like she’s weak every time she cries, and that all who know her are secretly ashamed of being associated with her.

Asher Pénthos

(The freckles on crowesn’s Picrew are the right color)

Age: 26

Pronouns: He/Him

Sexuality: Asexual

Height: 5’11”

Nickname(s): Ash (by friends)

Voice Claim: Theo Solomon

Most Proficient Magical Skill: Astronomy

Fashion Sense: Fairycore and light academia

Hobbies: Researching magic and watching old movies

Favorite D&D Class(es): Sorcerer

Personality: Humble and practical, Ash is an ideal king. He was quite sheltered throughout his childhood, and even now, he still doesn’t truly know much about everyday life. He can only really understand as much as his citizens tell him and during the few times he’s snuck out. After all, he’s usually so busy, he can’t even leave the castle unless it’s for business matters. He only really had friends in the current legionaries, and he can’t really contact them often because of how busy they all are. His understanding of true happy life often comes from media, his only form of escapism; particularly, movies. He’s a dreamer at heart; an old soul that wants nothing more to experience whimsy, joy, and pure love. However, he doesn’t really know what that is. His father was cruel and abusive, his mother was never in the right headspace to take care of a child due to her forced marriage with Ash’s father, and his brother never learned from his family’s mistakes. All Ash has is others’ experiences to go off of. Even so, he’s still kind and gentle, yet firm and tough when he needs to be.

Is it alright for us to what what Donna looked like prior to being spider-fied?

You can have all of them!

Sarantos: retired naval captain, skilled sailor and fisherman, father to three sons.

Alina: noblewoman, musician and singer who swore an oath of chastity to better serve her goddess Athena. She had three handmaidens that she treated as daughters.

Kyril: soon-to-be heir of his father’s forge. Master blacksmith and stonemason.

Daphne: exceptionally skilled weaver, daughter of a noble family. When her family tragically died she devoted her time to make a beautiful tapestry for them before planning to join them herself (either that or she would be forced to marry some landowner she didn’t love). When her work was finished Athena praised her and asked her to serve her so she may regain purpose.

[attitvdes]

the last thing costas wanted that night was to come home to the brat he'd been forced to marry. not because he'd slowly grown fond of her and was in no way ready to admit it, but because he had never appreciated looking weak in front of anyone and in this moment in time? bloodied, bruised, with a knife wound in his side and more than likely with a cracked rib or two, he looked like the weakest man on the planet. "motherfuckers..." he grumbled to himself while breathing shallowly in order to lessen the pain in his ribs. "i'm going to kill every single fucking one," he muttered while hearing the keys clatter to the floor after tossing them, but made no effort to pick them up. costas had attempted to stay out longer, strategizing with his grandfather, in hopes of isolde being asleep by the time he came home; but no such luck. as she rushed towards him he clenched his jaw despite the throbbing pain that shot through it. "the fucking irish happened to me," he said dismissively as he hobbled straight past izzy towards the bar cart in the sitting room of their lavish and well protected home. all he wanted was to rest his face in the crook of her neck and inhale the sweet perfume he'd grown to love the scent of, before passing out as he had barely any strength left in him. he wouldn't though... isolde would have questions and he would attempt to answer them as vaguely as possible, and then drink until he didn't feel pain. besides, he couldn't let her know just how much comfort he'd come to find in the scent of her perfume and her presence alone. pouring himself about three fingers worth of scotch in a crystal tumbler, he tossed it back and let out a groan of pain at the action, before pouring himself another and moving towards the uncomfortable but expensive sofa, his eyes catching the book on the table.

open to: all muse: isolde "izzy" valera, artist (this is an au verse where she's obvi the daughter of a mob boss) plot: in source! connections: family rival

normally, she doesn't care where they are, what they're doing, or what time they come 'home'. or at least that's how she liked to portray herself because she didn't want to be the first one to break. this sham of a marriage that they're in is one of convenience, and while she initially hated everything about them, she now could at least look at them without wanting to lose her breakfast. but as she looked at the heavy, ornate clock that hung in their living room — a gift from her father — she couldn't push down the worry. they were normally home by now, or would have sent her a message that they would be late. her phone was dark and just when she was going to reach out for it and call them, the front door opened. quickly, she picked up a book, pretending to be in the middle of reading, when she heard them stumble. keys were thrown haphazardly, missing the dish she had set on the table by the door and clattering to the ground. it sounded like they were stumbling and she put down her book with a huff. "i swear, i am not cleaning up if you throw up in the bathr—" but her threat died on her lips when she saw their face. "what the hell happened to you?" she questioned as she rushed to them, taking in their bruised face and hobbling appearance.

🇺🇲 1948 Tucker Torpedo Model 48 4-door sedan

One of the greatest automobile designer of all time Alexander Sarantos Tremulis

Civil Engineer. He is considered by most as one of the greatest automobile designer of all time. Best known as the sole designer of the ill-fated 1948 “Tucker Torpedo”, he had many other automotive, railroad, aircraft and spacecraft designs to his credit, including the original design for what evolved into today's space shuttle, and very possibly being the inventor of the term "flying saucer".

Born in Chicago, Illinois in 1914. At the age of 19, and without any formal training in art or engineering, he landed a job on the design team for the Auburn-Cord-Duesenberg Company in 1933. Among his projects there were the now famous and classic “Cord 810” and “812” series, as well as a custom Dusenberg roadster having both convertible and hardtop options.

He became Chief Stylist for Auburn-Cord-Deusenberg in 1936 at the age of 22, and remained in that role until the company failed in 1937. He then went to General Motors, and subsequently to Briggs-Le Baron, who was the coach builder for Chrysler at the time. In 1938 he worked for Custom Motors in Beverly Hills before consulting with Crosley and American Bantam in 1939. His designs for American Bantam remained in production until the firm switched over completely to the production of military Jeeps prior to World War II. Tremulis’ next work was on the 1941 Chrysler “Thunderbolt” concept car, and the production Packard “Clipper”. He enlisted in the United States. Army Air Corps after Pearl Harbor was bombed in 1941. There, he worked on advanced aircraft concepts at Wright Field (now Wright-Patterson Air Force base), and developed a concept, which in the 1970s became known as the Boeing “Dyna-Soar”, a gliding re-entry space vehicle. This project evolved into the present day space shuttle. Also during his tenure in the Air Corps, he made the first speculative drawings of what extra-terrestrial life forms would use as transportation to visit the Earth.

His concept drawings were the first saucer shaped spacecraft drawings documented. This concept generated much controversy, following which (in 1947) the even more famous Roswell "UFO incident" occurred. Freelance writer Deke Houlgate speculated at a 1990 Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) tribute to Tremulis: "Do we have Alex Tremulis to thank for 40 years of speculation over space visitors?" After World War II, he worked with the design firm of Tammen & Denison until Preston Tucker hired him to design the 1948 Tucker “Torpedo”. The radical design was considered by most to be as beautiful as it was innovative, and is unquestionably Tremulis’ masterpiece. The ill-fated car was one of the first ever to adopt rear engine mounting, air cooling, hidden fuel fillers, the precursor to the current cornering lights found on luxury cars (a “cyclops eye” third headlight that turned with the wheels), seat belts, pop-out safety glass, padded interiors and several other innovations.

Even after the demise of the Tucker Motors Corporation, and after Tucker’s acquittal on all counts of fraud, Preston Tucker commissioned him to design a revival intended to debut in the late 1950s as the Tucker “Talisman”. However, Tucker died in 1956 before he could put Tremulis’ design into production. Actor Elias Koteas portrayed Tremulis in Francis Ford Coppolla’s 1988 academy award nominated film “Tucker: A Man and His Dream”. He went on to style for the Kaiser-Frazer automotive company from 1950 to 1952. From 1952 through 1963, he worked as the Chief of Ford Advanced Styling. There, among his projects, he was assigned (in 1957) to “design the car he believed we would be driving in the year 2000.” The result was his design, on paper and a small model, of the Ford X-2000.

The design was so enthralling to one Australian (Andy Saunders) that he actually built a running prototype of the car in 1999 and showed it at car shows in Australia in 1999 and 2000. Among his’ designs was the Gyronaut X-1 streamlined motorcycle, which won the land speed record of 245.66 miles per hour from a 90 horsepower engine at the Bonneville Salt Flats in northwestern Utah in 1966. The Gyronaut got its name from the fact that it was stabilized by gyroscopes. In the 1960s he continued in a consulting role to attempts at automotive world land speed records.

His designs included the "Goodyear Wingfoot Express" (the first rocket powered automobile to reach 520 miles per hour) and the “Green Monster” (which failed to set a record after losing a wheel at approximately 600 miles per hour).

He was commissioned by NASA to submit a design for the lunar rover, though his two-wheeled, gyro-stabilized design was not chosen. Among Tremulis’ last designs were the 1978 to 1987 Subaru “Brat” and the Subaru “X-100”, a three-wheeled, 150 miles per-gallon concept car. He was a frequent contributor to “Road and Track” Magazine, and was elected to the Automotive Hall of Fame in 1982. He died in 1991, after suffering several strokes, one of which had blinded him.
