#SPACE ROMANCE

[fated-mates]

Maybe you're rooting for the asteroid, but you gotta have a plan! To help, this week, we're keeping track of what romance is looking like off-planet--it's Romance! In! Space! (Part 2, but the first episode we did was six years ago, so we figured it's time.) Headphones in, loves, this one covers space scavengers, aliens, anatomy, crash landings, abductions, talking lions and people in Space Army (what happens in Space Army stays there, unless it's here).

Does anyone else tuck a chill, fun, spicy book in between the super intense big reads?? These books are always so good. Easy world building(it’s really just an ice planet) and uncomplicated story lines. And of course, the giant blue alien men 🫠🥵🍆🛸

“The Mask Slipped When You Said My Name”

The station spun in silence,

draped in stars and artificial gravity.

Lights danced across the chrome-tiled floor,

a galaxy unfolding beneath our feet.

We were nothing but strangers in borrowed shapes—

faces hidden behind shimmer-screens and photon lace,

voices softened to silk by comms filters.

A party of ghosts,

playing at elegance

while the universe held its breath.

You didn’t approach.

Not at first.

Just watched,

from behind your glass-and-shadow façade,

like someone waiting for the past

to catch up.

I tried not to look your way.

Tried to blend into the drone of champagne laughter,

the flicker of nano-fabric gowns.

But every time I turned,

you were closer.

Not moving.

Just… inevitable.

When your hand brushed mine,

it was an accident.

Or something carefully disguised as one.

A brief contact—

enough to send tremors through my pulse,

enough to make me wonder

how you knew

I still felt anything at all.

Then you said it.

My name.

The one no one here should’ve known.

Spoken so softly

it felt like memory.

My mask flickered—

a ripple in the hologram.

You didn’t say another word.

Just looked at me like you’d been waiting

through centuries of light-years

for this one moment.

So I let you stay close.

Not touching.

Not yet.

Just… near.

Enough to burn slow,

like stars about to collapse

into something

dangerous and bright.

Never tell a writer cool space facts...

THAT'S A LIE GIVE ME MORE PLEASEEEE

IMPORTANT NOTE: when I say "love" in many of these, i do not exclusively mean romantic love, I will specify if there is one that is exclusively romantic. Otherwise, think of this love however you want! ( I will note my favorite forms of love at the end of each, please add your favorites! )

1-A black hole and a white hole; they know of each other but they might never see each other, the are deeply in love even though they are gazillions of light years apart. They are in love even though nothing can prove to them the other exists. (romantic, familial (sibling/cousin), platonic)

1.5-A white hole in love with a black hole; the black hole doesn't know this white hole exists, it just sucks things up, with no thought as to where it all ends up. But this white hole, on the other side of the universe, pays attention to every particle it releases, constantly thinking about why exactly the black hole chose THAT particle to consume. (Familial is my absolute fav with this one, younger/older sibling, parent/child maybe aunt who cant have kids and her niece/nephew)

2-(inspo) Life as earth knows it (green) and life as this other planet knows it (purple) are in love, but they cannot survive in each others habitat, so even if they only connect through distant dust particles transported back and forth by people, they will always be together. (romantic)

3- /ROM...Our solar system (or any for that matter) is one big polycule; god do they wish they could just hold hands but no...that would destroy them, so they are forever stuck in this endless dance around eachother, trying so hard to find ways to share their love without touch

3.5- this could apply to any two or more planets lol, this has probably been done before but i like the idea of a sort of love triangle between the sun the moon and earth, i love how flexible that triangle is too..like yeah the earth loves the sun and is anoyed by the moon but its also totally true and accurate that earth and the moon are in love and the sun is jealous.

[Please add your ideas I would love to hear more, and feel free to write any ideas you got from this! Show me when you're done I would love to read them!]

I’m trying to kill my dependence on outlines… This is the closest I’ve come.

"Romances in space are just out of this world. Love in the dangerous, endless expanse of space isn’t easy. Traveling far distances in ships that you often cannot leave is challenging in the best of conditions. In space, the door is locked and you have to make it work. Interplanetary travel, adventure, and romance are not for the faint of heart. Good thing I have some entertaining books to pick up instead of making the trip yourself.

My favorite romances in space involve a level of mystery, political intrigue, and danger. There is just something about a romantic pairing in trouble that really sells me on their mutual respect, teamwork, and problem-solving skills. When you are in space and in trouble, sometimes love is part of the answer, and I think that’s fun."

I love playing No Man's sky so much. It's not a perfect game, but it's such a cozy chill space game which sometimes gets hella intense but mostly chill.

And You get to explore and see cool shit which is one of my favourite things in games. And obviously it's a bit shallow and wide but there's enough that it doesn't bore me. I always play for a bit then turn off then play again. On and off, like a comfort game.

And you know what? This would be absolutely fucking perfect for a cool hangout spot with your friends or even loved ones. Like I wanna go on a cool multi solar system space date with a girl in this game. We can just fly around, chill , do random shit and talk for hours and it would be hella cute in my personal opinion. Like sure a normal date is probably more acceptable but I feel like this'll be way way more fun. Especially if you can't exactly meet up easily.

Whoever conceived and animated this moment, I hope they're doing well and thriving. This is S-rank romance stuff here.

There are no wallflowers in space!

Voyage back to 2019 when we first investigated SPACE ROMANCE.

Caleb is so big.

He’s balls deep in your poor cunt, going for so long you’re squirting with every thrust, soaking your bedsheets. You’re moaning incoherently as his cock bullies your cervix and stroked your gummy walls with unrelenting fervor.

He’d walked in your bedroom around 10:30 ish to check on you, and found you crying on your little pink dildo, because it just wasn’t enough. Caleb had grinned, showing his own was the same color before tossing it into your trash can and pulling off his sweats.

Now he’s pounding your sweet, soaked pussy—you’re just as tight and perfect as he’d imagined you’d be. Your cute face is all scrunched up as you whimper and cry because his dick is just so damn big, and he’s already made your poor overstimulated pussy cum twice.

He loves the view of your thighs over his shoulders, watching how some of his sperm squelches out of you with every deep thrust.

Your poor pink bunny bedsheets are soaked with cum and sweat, and your poor plushies must be horrified.

Caleb sees that hazy little look in your eyes, admiring the trail of tears traveling down your cheeks because your sweet body ‘couldn’t take it’. He was certain you liked it since you’d blatantly refused to say your safe word.

Your sweet cries increase as he begins a brutal pace, his balls slapping against your ass—the wet, lewd sounds filling your bedroom are just so perverted. You moan as Caleb twists one of your nipples in his mouth, leaving hickey after hickey on your soft skin. He moans pretty, too, about hour perfect you are. Swears pour from his mouth as his thrusts become sporadic and jerky, before he moans and bites your neck, his biceps curling around your hips and shoulders as he fucks his second load deeper into you.

His beautiful girl.
