I think the funnest part about the kitchen event would be the fact that it was a dream and as such Stelle is taking the time to relax while Selenoea is all but clinging to Phainon. It gets to the point that Mydei gets a special chair to put in the kitchen for her so she can sit and watch them. (They tried having her work as their helper but she kept making everything way too spicy so she sits in the chair unless she’s asked to decorate something. Mydei prefers her plating techniques over Phainon’s)

Summary of Selenoea(Lyra-Nova’s) crash out at the end of 3.4 beginning of 3.5

~~~~~~3.5 Spoiler Free~~~~~~

Selenoea: I don't want Phainon to get permanently absorbed by Irontomb

Selenoea gesturing to the Chrysos Heirs: They wouldn’t want Phainon to get permanently absorbed by Irontomb

Selenoea shaking Stelle like a snow globe: So we need to make sure that Phainon doesn't make Phainon get permanently absorbed by Irontomb

Stelle: I’m guessing now would be a bad time to tell you Dan Heng’s lost?

Selenoea: Dan Heng’s what!?!

~~ She loses it completely after the faerie kitchen fever dream. ~~

i hate how Xaden is constantly reduced to being Violet's lover and love, yes, he loves her so loudly, loves her and allows her to love him back.

but he's such a big and intricate character, he has suffered a lot, he's gone through a lot, he's been looked down on, he's been racialized, he's been bullied and mistreated, he's been alienated, and I see no one talking about how hard his life has been, yes, he's a great man, lover, boyfriend, protector and rider, but hell he's more that all those good things.

my man is the fucking god of resilience.

After the events of Amphoreus, Lyra-Nova would be actually rather determined to come up with an actual name for herself. You see, her current name isn’t really a name at all, it’s her make and model.

Lyra-Nova was created during the Supernova project. A project created by Louis Fleming to essentially bring about a “hero” from another universe. In the HSR universe this “hero” only exists in a novel series published my the Garden of Recollection. It is unclear whether or not this story is a work of fiction or something that actually happened. Fleming’s motives are often debated, some believe he wanted an ally against Rupert while others believe he simply wanted to see if he could.

This project birthed three “successful” subjects.

Andro-Nova: created by fusing the “memories” of the hero alongside vidyadhara DNA and primordial elements. (Despite having the character’s memories, they lacked the beliefs and values of the character. Eventually it moved to the Luofu.)

Aura-Nova: created by fusing the concepts of the novels and the left over DNA. (Was essentially an accident and became the spare. Lacked personality like many of the other failed subjects but was taken in by the Ten Stonehearts.)

Lyra-Nova: unlike the others who were infused with memories or programming during creation this one was not. Although not proven many believe that it was gazed upon by at least one Aeon only to then be abandoned after years of study. (After its abandonment it joined the Astral Express and became a Trailblazer.)

Nova is a sort of derogatory name given to the subjects. There were many failures, experiments that simply became regular or mundane, that were either abandoned or became foot soldiers for the IPC. Despite being living beings with their own personalities, souls, and more than not names. Novas are occasionally looked down upon by those who see them as impure amalgamations.

Both Aura-Nova and Andro-Nova chose to go by new names after being “released” from the Supernova program. Andro-Nova became Daiyu Long after some time on the Xianzhou and Aura-Nova became Adularia(Moonstone) after spending time with Sugilite and Sapphire.

Lyra-Nova on the other hand saw no need in a name, in her eyes a name was just an identifier. Many defaulted to calling her Nova, most unaware of the fact it was technically derogatory. Those who knew of Nova’s connotation or believed that name didn’t fit her called her Lyra.

It wasn’t until meeting the Chrysos Heirs, that Lyra volunteered one of those names upfront, wanting to be called Lyra rather than Nova. And it wasn’t until Khaslana and Phainon that she craved a name of her own. Lyra belonged to Andromelyra, the “hero” from the story and although she felt a connection to that name, she didn’t feel it suited her.

After much debate she settles on Selenoea, she chose it based off the names Selene and Eos. It’s long and a bit unorthodox but it’s hers.

If ANY of yall EVER do this shit to me, im deleting every single fic out of spite.

If I ever catch one of yall doing this to another author and I know youre a follower of my work I will block you personally on every platform

None of yall are the fic police. I DESPISE genai. I think its an insult to art, humanity, and the planet itself. But aint not a single fucking person here qualified to pick apart a strangers fic looking for a gotcha moment to make yourselves feel superior. If you think something is ai you can ask the author (most are proud of the ai use and will just tell you straight up) if they say yes you have your answer and can warn people. If they say no and you dont believe them you block and quietly keep it between you and maybe a close group of friends. Spreading misinformation is DANGEROUS. And NONE of you doing this shit are anywhere near qualified to do it.

THIS GOES DOUBLY FOR ARTISTS.

Do we think that folks these days are struggling with the idea of "suspension of disbelief" in media

[noxiousr0se]

Thinking more on this concept I think Welt and Himeko would be handling this all the absolute worst. It would actually be Pom Pom.

Like what do you mean your one kid almost died(Stelle), the other one almost faded out of existence(March), another got trapped for a century waiting for the others(DanHeng), and the oldest one is now riddled with so much guilt that she sits outside the other’s bedrooms at night because she feels like she failed them(Nova).

I pray that there’s some way in the story to save Amphoreus and everyone on it and have a happy ending bc if not, no one is ever getting off that train again. ٩(๑❛ᴗ❛๑)۶

I can see Welt and Himeko refusing to let any of them go anywhere alone, like one of them has to get off at every stop because they’re children keep almost getting killed whenever they’re not there. But I also see them trying to be supportive of the younger nameless’ independence and not wanting to hold them back. Pom Pom would just cry.

The way Nova’s going to have the worst separation anxiety when it comes to Dan Heng after this. Like she was already iffy about leaving him alone before but now? Now? You best believe the others are going to have to pry her from Dan Heng’s side when Amphoreus is said and done.

Stelle and March will be just as bad too. Caelus and Sunday (if they don’t eventually join) just stare confused as everyone comes back clinging to each other.

Little blurb here about said clinginess. Written post 3.4 but prior to 3.5.

Uhhh, no beta we die like the Chrysos Heirs. 💫💫💫💫💫

“I take it you all are tired from such a harrowing experience?” Sunday asks setting down some tea for the returning crew. Himeko had tried to make coffee but Caelus had quickly suggested a relaxing Penaconian blend of tea instead. Stelle lets out a long exaggerated groan as she flops back onto the couch dragging March down into her lap and burying her face in the pink haired girl’s neck.

“Exhausting doesn’t even begin to cover it. I’m just happy we���re all back safe and sound.” March offers with a small smile reaching for her tea. Stelle makes a sound as she lifts her head looking up at the two members of the Express that had stayed behind. She was grateful they had stayed, glad that the Express’ latest addition and her twin hadn’t been witness to the things she had experienced.

Stelle shudders at the memory of haunting red eyes, glancing at pink haired girl in her lap. The tightness in her chest loosening at the sight of familiar pink and blue irises. The smaller girl is currently waving her hands around as she excitedly relays some of her favorite Amphoreus sights, taking out her camera to showcase some of the photos she’ll be adding to her collection.

“I’m taking a nap.” Stelle mutters just loud enough for the others to hear before letting her face fall back into March’s shoulder. She takes a deep breath, her eyes fluttering shut as the bubbly voice of her friend sends her to sleep.

Caelus raises a brow at his sister’s antics. Stelle and March had always been close, close enough that Stelle had slept in March’s room during the time without a bedroom, but this was a bit of a shock. Usually Stelle was more gruff and awkward with her affections towards March. More often than not it was shown by shared food or challenges to see who could take out the most enemies.

“I’m going to go get some snacks.” Caelus says noting how many of the cookies March has scarfed down. Usually he would be tempted to make a joke about his sister’s behavior, but the sight of her so utterly exhausted makes him think better of it. He slips behind the bar of the party car, rummaging through some of the cupboards.

“…update the archives.” Dan Heng is talking with Himeko and Welt at the end the bar. Nova is there too, sitting in the still next to Dan Heng, fidgeting with her phone. On the screen is a photo of Nova alongside a man with messy white hair and bright cyan eyes. It’s a selfie taken by the man a bright smile on his face as Nova held an odd blue aquatic cat-like creature wearing a pair of yellow sunglasses.

The look on Nova’s face can only be described as painful longing. Caelus knows he shouldn’t but he can’t help but peek at the screen when Nova begins drafting a text message. It’s not much, nothing more than a few simple words before she bites her lip and deletes the whole thing. She repeats the process a few times, before going back to the photo. She’s shifted in her chair enough for Caelus to see something that makes his brow raise.

The long green tassel-like accessory on the back of Dan Heng’s jacket was pulled taught. The end of the fabric wrapped around Nova’s forearm like a bandage. When they had first met them at the Herta Space station Stelle made a comment on how the Nameless guard and healer seemed all but joined at the hip. When asked the duo claimed it was because they fought well together which was true enough. But there was something different now. A shift that had started back when Dan Heng first refused to step foot on the Luofu.

Caelus remembers the way Nova fidgeted back then too. The way she had all but tackled Dan Heng in a hug when they saw him again at Scalegorge Waterscape. Nova had been completely unperturbed by Dan Heng’s change in appearance more concerned about whether or not he was uninjured. The two had lingered close after that, not as close as now, but enough so that Nova had tried to stay on the Express with Dan Heng when they first arrived at Penacony only to get guilted by March and Himeko into going.

At a glance it looked one sided, like Nova was the one with the boundary issues, but Caelus had watched them both long enough to know it went both ways. Dan Heng while not as obvious with his actions was still just as close to Nova. From the way he had gotten her a new outfit and personally tied up her hair for the Luminary Wardance Ceremony to the way he was constantly reminding her to take better care of her short swords, fixing the locking mechanisms on the blades’ pommels ensuring quick connection during battle.

Now, Dan Heng gently turned to Nova as he spoke seemingly looking for her input on something Himeko had asked. His gaze darts to the phone and something flashes across his eyes at the sight of the ivory haired man. Silently he rests a gentle hand over hers, extracting the the phone from her hand and setting it to the side. Something passes between the two as Nova looks up at Dan Heng offering a grimace of a smile. Dan Heng squeezes her hand before turning back to Himeko and Welt. Nova’s eyes dart to the phone for a moment before she leans up against Dan Heng’s back. Her arms wrap loosely around him from behind as she rests her chin on his shoulder holding him the same way Stelle held March. And just like March who accepted Stelle’s embrace Dan Heng accepts Nova’s.

"Amphoreus' Saga of Heroes" | Dan Heng • Permansor Terrae

"As you can see, that transformation was brought about by the power of the Permanence. Though you may have many questions, I'd like to reintroduce myself before I answer them - I am the Guard of the Astral Express, your companion, Dan Heng the Nameless."

"Soaring Dragon without Restraint" Dan Heng •

Permansor Terrae

The chest of Georios and the body of walking dragon shoulder the shattered earth, enduring a thousand years of suffering.

Nameless Dan Heng, Chrysos Heir who guards the Earth's Coreflame, you must steady the world as it falls, and guide all life across the land to a new home beyond.

— All rivers flow to the sea, mountains echo in chorus, the path of Permanence shall stretch beyond horizons.

Affiliated City: Beyond the Sky

Divine Authority: "Pillar of Stone" Georios...?

The way I’m about to freaking sob. Hoyo needs to stop torturing their men.

For more context into Lyra-Nova’s dynamic on the Astral Express she serves somewhat as the resident cook and healer. Personality wise think something like and older sister/ wine aunt. Due to the fact that she’s also in part responsible for Dan Heng agreeing to stay (that’s a different story) Welt and Himeko joke that Nova has a habit of bringing back strays.

Welt and Himeko talking casually in the lounge as Nova walks in: Lyra, what do you have over there?

Nova with two raccoons in her arms, a dragon wrapped around her neck like a scarf, a charmony dove on her head, a pink bunny in her bag, and a fluffy Samoyed at her side: …A new outfit for PomPom

(If you saw the previous version of this and its typos no you didn’t)

PhaiLyra(PhaiNova?) dynamics are essentially akin to the way zoos will give dogs to cheetah pups, except it’s a snow leopard climbing into a little puppy’s yard and refusing to leave. It saw the puppy sneeze once and decided to keep it.
